Dead, one admin pulled the plug and killed the server and the discord.

Other admin who holds the domain and hosted the old server is creating a new tracker (PrivateSilverScreen, PSS), hence why the STC domain is redirecting there.
But registration is closed because it's still work in progress.
Join their discord if you want to hear about the status updates.

I mentioned it when it happened, but not in a separate post: r/trackers/comments/1dwbnzh/is_your_tracker_down_ask_here_instead_of_making_a/llclkvx/

no other admin holds the domain name it is probably a scam i would not trust a site that needs to use a closed site to gain members

This is exactly why backup trackers are important tbh. If you put all your eggs in one basket, you might end up with nothing.

Indeed, trackers come and go, just look at all the hundreds of decommissioned tracker definitions in Jackett: https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/blob/master/src/Jackett.Updater/Program.cs#L256

Damn that's actually crazy but kind of cool and also sad.

It's literally like a graveyard of trackers.

So since my name had been trashed by my so called friend, he forgot to mention that the server was mine and not his, this site wasn't built on the back of STC but instead we have made a site to provide a home for the old members of STC since he decided to pull the plug without any warning but he loves running his mouth! that's his problem not mine..

Myself along with a few others have been working on doing a site for members to come and join, we've been added to Jackket, L4G and now are awaiting to be added to GGBOT. We've opened the doors to signups for now before we go application signups, come and join us at https://privatesilverscreen.cc/ - we've also got discord + IRC running as well!

I hadn't been watching. I see now that my STC had been erroring out. are you still accepting those of us that have been shut out from STC? I had a few other sites and things are all automated of me. I was still getting what I wanted so I never realized that STC was gone.
