I really hope this is the start of a successful rescue operation.

I would be happy to volunteer my services as a moderator if it's of any help. I was a moderator at HungerCity a decade ago before we discovered the owner was milking it for funds and we all jumped ship!

A suggestion re the overload issue: Lossless Legs have had similar problems amd their solution is to ask folks NOT to leave old torrents seeding indefinitely when there are no leechers. Instead, if a member wants a torrent they press a request button and a message goes out to those folks who have completed the download previously, asking them to reseed. This seems to work for them - I wonder how feasible it might be for TTD to implement this?

Good luck in your endeavours - I will be pleased to help in any way I can (including donating to a fundraiser)
