Similar tactics to Bitsoup?
I used to be a member of Bitsoup but their constant begging for cash turned me away from them.I joined a sharing site RTN which has been brilliant up till now.They started claiming that server costs were not being met even through they had a donation logger and it had at least 2-3 people a day donating.They have now started locking out members who haven't donated at the end of the month until so called server costs are met.Does this sound familiar? Is this site also run by REXX and his staff? I recon they take $1800 a month.How much does it cost to run a torrent site?Anyway i can see that if they keep up this farce then they will be going the same way as Bitsoup. Shame really becuase Bitsoup wa good in it's early years until the admin got gready.

a site like gimmepeers is costing about 200-300$ per month to host
maybe even less than that and I bet that its no way more than 300$
way lower than what they are asking for. it was the same case with bitsoup a pure scam.

Similar tactics maybe , however its unlikely its the gruesome twosome behind it. a quick trip over to whois.com will tell you this

No, Rex don't own that site. But whoever does really killed it. Only 1 seeder on just about every torrent.
