After three and a half months of downtime Demonoid’s tracker is now back online. The unexpected revival of the tracker is the first sign of life in weeks and suggests that the Demonoid team is working to bring the full site back online. While the index and forum remain offline, the many thousands of torrents tracked by Demonoid have been brought back to life.

So the site won't load yet, but your Demonoid torrents shouldn't be red anymore. Great news, and I hope they make a complete return soon.

Seems like 3 and a half years...

cool.. they moved to hong kong :P i loved that tracker :)

woooohoooooooo!!!

Amazing news man Thanks.

ps: Hope my Golden account is not pruned for not using :gtongue:

Piratebay showed us the way....so long live Demonoid....Great Trackers never day, as soon as people are willing to p2p...

This is indeed very good news! the Demon is proving hard for corporate greed to kill.

What´s with the url?

I'm so glad they are back. I actually had a friend who used only Demonoid for the stuff he needed.

Although I don't use it at all but I love it because It was my gate to this nice world :) .

I used it for book packs & such would be a nice comeback...they will be back on Christmas probably like they did in 2009

Good news!

Demonoid was my first kind of private tracker ,more public than private IMO ,

Is it down again or I'm missing something ?
Neither demonoid.com, nor demonoid.me loads for me.

Edit: Should of read the whole post of yours. Pardon me.

Newspost - 8 May 2013
Hello people
We all read the same news stories: The Demonoid servers shut down and seized in the Ukraine. The Demonoid admin team detained in Mexico. The demonoid.me domain snatched and put up for sale. The Demonoid trackers back online in Hong Kong, but then disappearing. We all wanted to believe that Demonoid would be resurrected once again; though it seems clear that this time it is really gone.

Now for some good news: The heart and soul of Demonoid lives on! Through an amazing sequence of unlikely events, the data on those Ukrainian servers has made its way into the safe hands of members of our own community and has now been re-launched as d2.vu. For the foreseeable future d2.vu will remain a semi-private beta site and no new invitations to join will be issued until we are certain that the system is stable.

Demonoid may be gone, but the community lives on at d2! Welcome home.

Sincerely,
admin

indeed especially after all they've been through. i'd be surprised if that'd last

Perhaps it's a reverse proxy? TPB also runs one (official, not the countless ones that sprung up to unblock access) hosted in Germany to conceal the real servers' location.

sure but germany is a bad choice either way

Demonoid Returns, BitTorrent Tracker is Now Online | TorrentFreak

The tracker is working, and it seems the site proper is on its way to returning.

According to article, they are hosting in Sweden now. Hopefully they will have better luck there then what TPB had. But I'm not sure can demonoid ever return its old glory days, it all depends how well it will be recieved by general public...

They have had many of these downtimes over the years, and always managed a full recovery. It's amazing, really.
