After a short chat with the owner of ScT - Feeling has confirmed that this is not a hoax.

Update: TorrentLeech is now offering all ScT members a new home - check it out: TorrentLeech Opens Registration for ScT Members

Update 2: ScT has released an internal torrent entitled "The Final Notice".

[ScT IRC] News : The End Is Here. (No, it’s not a joke) - Don’t ask why!
[ScT IRC] News : Site Closing - Sunday 29th Nov 2009 10PM GMT. RIP SCT - 25/08/05 - 29/11/09.

What happened? Not many know for sure, but there’s been a lot of speculation that it involved their topsite "Loop" which had recently been raided by BREIN on November 27th. Also, ScT’s donation page has also been removed. Courtesy of Tweakers.net, here’s a translated snippet of their recent article involving "Loop":

http://tweakers.net/nieuws/64021/brein-haalt-amsterdamse-topsite-offline.html

Brein cites Amsterdam topsite offline

Brein collecting society has the “topsite” ranked ‘Loop’ to get offline. The topsite, that many groups would provide content to release, was hosted in Amsterdam. A judge has requested from the servers seized Brein withdrawn.

 

Brein-director Tim Kuik says to Tweakers.net that Brein is now no longer will focus primarily on torrent sites. We have first focused on torrent sites, because they were important in the dissemination of films, music, software and games. Speaking through the U.S. court case have been over, it’s time for us to focus on other places where illegal sharing of file occurs".

 

The site where the servers have been seized, is called a ranked topsite. This site was content to P2P sites and usenet correctly. It was difficult to access a site, because you a member of the staff should be invited. I hope that this seizure is a shock through the scene".

 

Brein, the right one "ex-parte leave" requested. This means that the court takes a decision without hearing the other party. Based on the evidence of Brein, the court decided that the servers Loop seizure could be taken. The administrators can then do ask the court to reverse the seizure.

 

The servers, who were in Amsterdam, was (home) to 40TB of files present. Kuik could not say whether Dutch managers were involved in the site. It is possible that the administrators will be legally prosecuted.

FileShareFreak was lucky enough just catch up with Feeling, the owner of ScT - on IRC:

[13:52] <Sharky> Feeling… WTF happened?
[13:53] <feeling> nothing
[13:53] <feeling> :o
[13:53] <feeling> just closing
[13:53] <feeling> :]
[13:53] <Sharky> wow that was a sudden decision
[13:54] <Sharky> will there be a new tracker, or are you out for good?
[13:54] <feeling> out for good
[13:54] <Sharky> wow, that’s much larger news than mininova. This is for real
[13:55] <Sharky> I notice the site/tracker are still up. When’s the site going offline?
[13:55] <feeling> [ScT] News : Site Closing - Sunday 29th Nov 2009 10PM GMT. RIP SCT - 25/08/05 - 29/11/09
[13:56] <Sharky> thanks for the info. Good luck on your future endeavours. I really mean that, and hope you’ll resurface somewhere down the road.
[13:56] <Sharky> your knowledge is too great to be just wasted :]
[14:00] <feeling> hmm
[14:00] <feeling> :]
[14:05] <Sharky> what do you plan to do with the members?
[14:05] <feeling> nothing

Take care,

ScT on IRC

Feel free to join in the discussion, ScT’s main IRC channel has now been opened to both members and non-members. You’ll need to register your nick first.

SceneTorrents IRC server: irc.scenetorrents.org

Channel: #SceneTorrents

Hotlink: irc.scenetorrents.org/scenetorrents

Were we saddened to learn about the recent story of Mininova evolving over to a "content distribution" model? Not really, no - Mininova is simply a torrent indexer. But when a true scene juggernaut like SceneTorrents goes offline, this is certainly big news. 20,000 members are now stranded - but we may have found an alternative (or two) … stay tuned!

RIP ScT. One of the best trackers that ever lived. It is indeed a black day.

Edit: Comments posted in the name of ‘Feeling’ will be deleted, as well as inappropriate comments. Keep it clean, please. No need to throw gas on the fire out of speculation - we’ll update the article to reflect more info as it comes in.

Also be sure to check out TorrentFreak’s article on ScT.

ScT - Final Notice

(Excerpt below taken from ScT’s last torrent)

By now most of you already know that ScT will be going offline permanently.

 

However, due to pending legal issues, we are not at liberty to speak freely about why we’ve chosen to take down the site. Members of our staff were arrested and will be undergoing the entire length of the judicial process. Obviously, in the case of criminal proceedings, it would be downright foolish to comment any further on the situation;

 

Please bear this in mind and wish them the best of luck.

 

There have been several theories as to where the donation money (of the recent months) has gone. We’d like to take this opportunity to put all skepticism to rest.
The money was used to purchase new hardware that would ensure our spot as the fastest tracker on the net.
You are free to perform whatever calculations you feel necessary, but in doing so it should become very clear that running a site of this stature costs money. We feel the overwhelming cynicism is just a product of bad timing compounded with general frustration caused by the current situation.

 

We sincerely hope that you’ve enjoyed being a part of our wonderful community over the past 4 1/2 years. We’ve certainly enjoyed our members letting us be of service. We’ve always felt our user base played an equally important role in making SceneTorrents.org a model environment in the torrent world.

The staff would also like to express their gratitude to fellow trackers for their support in such a chaotic time. Several well known communities have voluntarily opened their doors, and have offered our former users a new home. We appreciate the courtesy and acknowledge the steps being taken to move forward collectively as a community. Your assistance does not go unrecognized.

Its never good to see a tracker decide to close down, but shit, ScT put in alot for a long time, I wish these guys the best with whatever it is that they choose to do. They ran a good and successful tracker. All the best guys.

    The 2x donation was needed since we had to pre pay 6 months for the .eu server you are using right now and upgrade the auto box.

    There is no connections to ScT and the site “loop”.

    ScT won’t take the responsibility to tell its users why this closure happens all of a sudden. This, after they asked for double donations the last few weeks. Epic fail! ScT went from hero to zero.

  97. 097   •   Dent Says:

    hey not all people that run trackers are douchebags and off course its important to keep on donating so that trackers can grow and all costs can be payed. You can just generalize and put all in the same basket. Some communities are better and some are worse. Donate where you feel you get something good back. This was a sad story and a bad way to go, but I am sure that most of the members now have found a new better home where they can get the feeling of how a real good community works.

    ScT wasn’t getting fed from LOOP. That “honor” goes, or did go, to another site known as X or Sparta. SCC uses that as well, no surprise knowing Feeling and chalisto are in bed together and enjoy docking. Look that up on Urban Dictionary for a laugh.

    Feeling, who liked to brag in private IRC channels about how he was buying this or that with ScT donation money, and is alleged to have used donation money to pay for at least part of his car. Also, anyone noticed that scenetorrents2.org was registered yesterday?

    chalisto, known in a previous torrent life as eristalfa01, who was globally banned from the torrent scene for stealing code that wasn’t his from beta code AL was working on in 2006, and also used an old/stolen ScT database to spam for members when SCC first opened. Also lists himself as GOD on SCC.

    Fantastic people to “lead” the torrenting community, fine people indeed. And complimentary staff who talk down to everyone and tell them “you are nobody here.” A Great places to donate to, aren’t they? These are the people you laud as “gods of the torrent world”…..In a world with gods like this, I think I’d prefer Hell, rather than Heaven. And no, I’m not jealous for not having gotten in to either. I’ve been on ScT, and beyond pre times that YOUR money paid for, it had nothing worthwhile. SCC, yeah, wouldn’t be there if you paid me, not when chalisto bans staffers who are from sites he stole from, just because he didn’t like the sites. And yes, I have very good sources, and I’ve been around in the private torrent scene for a very long time as well.

    Hope you don’t wind up on yet another site where the staff treat you like shit, and expect you to pay for THAT privilege, people.

    We know that all sites siphon off donations for personal use, but ScT staff got caught. idiots. Sct was no better than any other top 0day tracker out there. Sure it was fast, but TL, GFT, SCC, PTM and even RTT were just as fast and had much of the same content (even some of the packs). Bottom line, who cares. Astraweb ftw. Fuck torrents.

  118. 0118   •   SeedBytes Says:

    RIP to SCT. to all members looking for a new site check out this new one I like

    http://www.seed-bytes.com

    its and HD/HQ tracker

  119. 0119   •   Shrike Says:

    So Sct is gone……who gives a fuck?
    OH NO! Now I have to wait 10 more seconds to start downloading that new episode of Heroes!”

  120. 0120   •   Shrike Says:

    It’s funny how all these douchbag site operators are coming on here talking about how great their tracker is. Notice that all the truly good trackers don’t say shit about it, because they don’t need to. I say any tracker begging you to sign up on a fucking site like this, are exactly the ones you DON’T want to go to.

  121. 0121   •   MpEgDiStRo Says:

    The Torrent Source is offering good axx to any ScT members and our doors will remain open for the ones who want to join. Also we have an irc network irc.thetorrentsource.org port 6667-6669

    @ NobodySpecial

    re : feeling
    at least you were smart enough to put “alleged”. And that sums up your paragraph about him right there. So not true at all, no proof and just going off the word (or fake logs) of other jealous site staff / users that run crappy sites.

    re : chalisto
    If he was gloabally banned… why is he not anymore? Yes he used ScT’s old db to get members but he didnt steal it, and im sure most if not every other site woulda done if they got their hands on it. The only thing chalisto ever should regret is being bum buddies with Brandon.

    re : you
    Around the private torrent scene for years? That leaves you on a very limited number of sites and very limited content. Obviously you are not fans of these 2 torrent site staff, but seeing as they are / were the best sites in the world, they must be doing something right.

    :)

  123. 0123   •   Clam Says:

    All of you guys are speculating.. ScT was never connected to LOOP and thats not the reason ScT was closed. if they were down because of loop they would have pulled all their DB servers so no one could get access to their database. DB server and IRC server is up. and you can get lots of evidence against them from bother servers. Its because of TAX, anyone who runs a tracker from a Western Nation knows tax laws and that if you make money and doesnt have proper proof. whether its internet or in person the tax man will get you onces it goes to your bank account. and the amount of Money ScT makes has to be registered in someones account.

    People please think before you speak. use your head

    @ishare I think your a little confused or drunk.
    No uploaders were ever exposed from tophos.
    Go back to getting caught camming films retardedly by over-obese theater employees.
