"The legendary BitTorrent site Suprnova.org will be back in action soon. Sloncek, the former owner of suprnova.org decided to donate the domain to The Pirate Bay lads, who will relaunch the site in a few days, staying true to its original design. The return of a Legend."
"The Pirate Bay crew has been working on this secret project for quite some time now. Back in April they wrote a cryptic post on their blog announcing that something was coming. In a response to this announcement TPB admin Brokep told TorrentFreak: "The past, the present and the future. It’s all the same, but one thing’s for sure, we will radiate for weeks", today it became clear that he was referring to the resurrection of Suprnova.
In a response to this breaking news, the former owner of Suprnova told TorrentFreak why he decided to donate the domain: "The domain was doing nothing. I know that domain has some nostalgic value and some people would be more then happy to see it back online. I don’t use it, and TPB is the only team that I know will use it correctly."
"I will be involved in the community [Forums] on a separated domain", Sloncek said and added, "The site has to look almost exactly like it looked before. They can upgrade it, but they cannot change it appearance completely. We further agreed that the site has to be community orientated (not private)."
Together with the relaunch of Suprnova, which will be a torrent indexer and not have it’s own tracker, a new community will be launched that will be linked to both Suprnova and The Pirate Bay. The forums will be hosted on SuprBay.org and are already up and running (more or less).
We also talked to Brokep, one of The Pirate Bay administrators and asked him why they decided to revive Suprnova. He told us: "We talked it over and decided it was something people would have use for, it would help the torrent community and it would also signal that if you shut one down it will get back up again."
Here’s a preview of the updated Suprnova logo. The new site is scheduled to go live this week!"
