Over the span of 2006-2010 I ran three torrent sites, of which are now kaput

AimingforPeace 10:15 am

I am working several jobs. Paul got hit hard with the recession

Ryuko Kotani 10:15 am
Eh, it's ok... I had someone ask me what I spent the last four years doing.

Ryuko Kotani 10:16 am
I stated, if you've downloaded anything from a torrent site with FXG, RGX, or [Retrograde-X.net] in the name... you're welcome.

AimingforPeace 10:17 am

Ryuko Kotani 10:17 am
Yeah, I am just barely recovering from the recession, it hit Los Angeles pretty hard too.

AimingforPeace 10:17 am

Ryuko Kotani 10:17 am

AimingforPeace 10:17 am

Ryuko Kotani 10:20 am

AimingforPeace 10:20 am
nice talking to you too :-)

Ryuko Kotani 10:20 am
Let's talk again soon.

AimingforPeace 10:20 am
k :-)

The reason Angel and Bahde don't play anymore: They have five kids.

She was an ICU nurse. And she has to work 5 jobs? Hmmmm....

well 5 kids? a job per kid right?

glad to hear some people can get away from this game

might not be cause they want to stay away.. only so many hours in the day.....

gee me and BA used to go at it on the fourms lol

And NS... you mustn't of done a good job running it.... People i know have been doing the same for years and years and still no hassles...

unless you're noticed bsnake, they can be kinda ... vindictive ... with stuff like that :/

Changing ISP's, changing locations, changing site names... even going as far as password protecting the part of the site that had the downloads wasn't enough.

angel and bahde adopted an ethiopian?

that kid's gotta be in heaven right now lol
