Just for in case you have not figured it out yet. You cannot sign up or get an invite for Newshost anymore.

Putting this up every 20 posts for noobs to see.

There is also a sticky thread two threads underneath this one that says the same thing.

[LazyLion]

well if not newshost, then how about bitfarm?

We don't give out invites to "new guys" (n00bs)

Only the "old boys"

stick around and get to know us... then we might invite you

Normally when you see that message, the NZB file is well and truly dead. 230 days is very very ancient in News Server terms... it means that the file has not been accessed in so long that the old posts have been deleted off most of the mirrors and the server is having problems in locating the pieces needed to make up the file.

You are better off looking for a different NZB of the same content.

Try a few of the other NZB sites... or let one of us know by PM which file you are actually looking for. One of us might have it.

Is it just me or is the SAIX2 news server "spiking" again?

EDIT: NVM... it's that stupid Kaspersky anti-virus

Bah, if you don't save the batch in Grabit, is there anyway to find the NZB you were busy with?

It has an autosave feature in which you can specify after how many minutes it must continuously autosave the batch. I set mine to 1. Well, that was when I was still using it. After using Alt.Binz, I can't see why anyone would want to use Grabit.

hey guys come on please dont be like that i really need to blow my 10gigs local, and i dont see any other local torrents!!!! please

In how many languages should we say "No" to you?
Once again, Newshost is now a closed community. No more invites. Also don't ask for our usernames and passwords.
Bitfarm is also not a "free for all farm"
If you want to blow your 10GB local, use it to download Linux or other locally hosted content where you don't have to ask 1000 people for access to it. Or give it to one of us, we'll use it with a pleasure.

Still learning merc, once i've mastered the art of not losing all my batches i'll move to try Alt.Binz

I find it funny how hordes of people come here and ask for invites, only to be denied and rate the thread 1

Yup, oops.

You'll need to get to know a few guys here before anyone can/will give you an invite new guy
