cant find any posts on this already warning about this, mininova.com is a scam site that asks for subscriptions to view mininova.org's contents probably the same people that created the suprnova.com scam site.
Sorry if this in the wrong section mods. -------------------- |

Good one.
We'll see if we can make an official post about this. -------------------- -Icecream is good. Letting a 12 year old kid stearing the plane while you're taking a leak, is bad- -Good times are always in the past, for how do you know its good untill its over- -Time is like icecream, stare at it too much and it will just melt away- -Making quasi philosophical remarks is like peeing on sidewalks, anyone can do it- |

Hadn't noticed that one till now
 I'm really sorry about this, but I'm afraid we can't do anything about these lame scam sites. I don't feel so much for posting a warning at the homepage like SuprNova did, that's just advertising for the guys

I only noticed it yesterday when i accidentally typed com instead of org, im just worried that people will think it is the real mininova then come on to these fourms and start to complain about being scammed.

QUOTE (seamonkeys1 @ Apr 13 2005, 05:52 AM) It doesnt even look like mininova.org i just went there after i got done reading this post  I mailed the owner of the site and he replaced the scam site with a 'normal' domain parking site. At least no money is stoled from visitors anymore. |

i wish it was possible for a few thousand users to get together to crash the site by hammering it, or just DDoS it. these scam sites deserve everything they get.

we could all just do a low base hack and and few email cracks if we get into thier main server we can prob just open a few more ports for us to "go nuts"
