Re: Servers under pressure?

First of all I'm greatfull that TTD is still alive and that some guys stepped up one year ago to keep things running. And as far as I can tell that over this last year the site worked quite well.
But what still puzzles me a bit is that since that memorable date last September nobody of that new team made *any* postings regarding the condition of the site and its future.

Many of my uploads had been pruned.

All are/were my own recordings and admittedly many of them are of rather unknown artists (openers, locals, etc.) but thanks to Vuze (which can kick in seeding but only when leecher show up) I would and still have the intention and ability to serve them if demand would arise.
After Bradleys statement that no torrents will be pruned because of inactivity http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...04&postcount=1 I started reseeding all my dropped off uploads to eventually getting an even accessible archive of my recordings.

So I will continue my re-seedings but I will not re-upload the recently pruned torrents (and give up on my idea of an archive) since it appears that they indeed are after all an unwelcome load for the site.

I would appreciate some feedback from the admin team but anyway again thanks for all of your efforts to keep TTD alive.
