Popular torrent site TorrentGalaxy has been offline for two weeks, with no explanation from its operators. Members of the site's staff are also being kept in the dark, and many fear the site may never return. To the delight of copyright holders, the site's troubles are now being felt across the torrent ecosystem after the site's upload bots also stopped working.

Saddens me. I mean we are starting to lose good sites; RARBG, ZippyShare and now maybe TorrentGalaxy (and 1ficher?).

True, but like any piracy system there are endless heads to the hydra that pop up every time. 1ficher is a bit worse since those files are gone, but at least mirrors for trackers have some utility in finding old torrent swarms.
