    OK going through the comments seems like something fishy is going on. lots of people willing to take it over and no answer to why it has to be shut down

      well, also it was not long ago with a short-time frame…

      If it all turns out to be a prank / main account was hacked / etc, great … but could see someone who expects a lot of negative feedback or even somene who have a lot going on offline not really bothering to look at commentss

      plus we all knw silent legal / state presure is a thing… rarbg, kat, and many others had people willing to take over but ithink they got legal pressure to stop.

      my plan is just have a few glasses of boubron and relax. we are hydra and all that lol

        Yeah I agree but why hide it if legal pressure unless they are threatening him but still just seems weird or like some sort of power move.

        Also there is a dump of all the sub’s on there from 2 months ago linked in the comments there so atleast we can grab that and redistribute without having to restart

        HAIL HYDRA!

          Looks like I was wrong…

          this is from an older thread before the final closing announcement:

          24 February 2024

          Yesterday, we received unfortunate news from one of our trusted admins stating that the owner of the site intends to shut it down due to insufficient revenue.

            OK so its a power move IMO because he could easily sell it to someone else or accept the many offers of covering it for him.

            A comment in that thread said subdl has all subscene uploads now as well so looks like thatll be the place

    Sad news if true. Subscene had a few very consistent and committed uploaders for Korean subtitles that would share community subtitles from Cineaste, in addition to the retail stuff. For that reason I always found it to be one of the best overall subtitle sites. Rarely did I need to go elsewhere.

    The-Eye has already backed up all of Subscene into a torrent. Only 90GB.

    Download the backup and never need to find subs (for older content) again

        Right? I remember being absolutely mind blown away by a 2gb SD card. Nowadays I pickup a 32gb microSD for $3 every time I got to Micro Center

      fucking nice… is that on their public eu domain? having trouble finding it but probably looking in the wrong places

      anyone feels like pm my dumbass the loc or give a hint, i’d appreciate it

      edit: also tried dht (qbittorrent, solidtorrents) but no joy there either

      edit2: to fellow drunken fools:

      is that on their public eu domain?

      the ansqer is ‘yes’. See: /public/Random/torrents
