Good shit, unregisturd

i can never remember what i want to get, so i'm searching through a folder of half downloaded .r01 files that i found on blogs & decided it would be worth the effort painstakingly downloading rather than expending valuable KG capital on. any recommendations appreciated.

Good shit, unregisturd

!!!! WHAT???

Nonononononono. Clinging to a story, that it's planned maintenance. But could be MPAA. Fuck that, I need KG for research.

it's just down while moving to new server space afaik
it would be such a tragedy though. honestly even just bibliographically, for filmographies & screenshots & precis, it's one of the most useful cinema resources i think.

kinda sweating it atm tbh

:/

--- An update on the ongoing KG downtime ---

Our apologies to all our users for the downtime and lack of updates on the situation. Here's the order of events from the last few weeks:

- your kind donations paid for the next 12 months of web hosting.

- BREIN lodged a complaint with our host. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BREIN

- we are still online at this point. we began planning how to handle the situation, then...

- an anonymous complaint to our domain registrar lead to suspension of our domain. this prevents your computer from translating karagarga.net into the IP address for our server.


We have disabled access to the main website and tracker. The forum is still accessible with a workaround (see below). No data has been lost or leaked and we hope to see you all soon.
- KG staff

Is the demise of KG inevitable? I'm also curious how people who use it for research or teaching feel about copyright for some of this stuff.

thanks for that post, admrl. good to hear. i know with ubuweb there was an evolution between them calling out non-participants, & moving towards reaching some sort of acquiescence, either through compliance in removing films or in meaningful compromise (like with michael snow, who asked for certain films to be taken down & supported the hosting of others), & it's nice to think that that's practiced in a setting that could otherwise be pretty craven. by virtue of being a hungry consumer i'm obviously partisan but i do think - again generally - that the circulation of the bulk of out-of-print/restricted-by-access-or-credential stuff is culturally positive, enriching. the subtitling is totally exemplary of the best, utopian-kinda elements of the internet; i've heard the same sort of stories about anime communities, & really organic, collaborative, supportive working models put together by volunteers in service of the material. i am just going to lazily throw the humourlessness of some participants under the umbrella of what morbius called aspect ratio people; i definitely like being able to cruise the forum just for like, cinephilic-shut-ins' deep-cut direct cinema recommendations.

That was actually a very poorly written post (mine, that is), but hopefully you still get what I'm saying! This is why I only usually post to ILX in short sentences.

Does the workaround work? Or has people migrated already? I'm looking for the films of Idrissa Ouedraogo, and the one I need the most is only available on vhs.

The workaround is only for the forum, Frederik, not the main site.

So, KG has stopped giving invites? I was on there for 10 years+, kept a good ratio, there are movies I've worked on up there even, but lost my account as I guess I had a an older, second one I never used and didn't even think about. No help on IRC and I can't access the forum.

http://i.imgur.com/7gI1dwk.jpg

Still trying nine months later! If you have a KG invite to spare, you will become my New Favorite Person.

I have folders and folders of stuff I can share, some of which is from my time on KG and a lot of which is likely unseeded. Otherwise, any advice on how to get on there? I'm not on other private trackers and find the whole thing a little daunting. I basically just want to be on KG and work on having a good ratio there...

Now post that stupid crow image.

They had one of those forum-meltdown style "incidents" in 2015, and invitations have been disabled ever since. Mods are lazy/incompetent, so there's no news on if/when they're ever coming back, so as you might imagine the tracker is basically dying from a lack of fresh blood.

what are the details of that (vaguely)? it seems self defeating.

i did actually ask on behalf of adamrl about a year ago and didn't get any response.

It's unclear. If you ask about it they point to a dozen-page-long forum topic that's just a bunch of crosstalk. It seems like some people were selling invites, and/or it had something to do with the 2015 downtime and domain change

thanks, Dan.

adamrl, i forgot to get back to you about that, sorry.

No problem, Jed, I wasn't dropping a hint! Thank you for trying for me anyway, I really appreciate it.

F R E E L E E C H all this week

ty ty ty!

thanks!

Would hugely appreciate an invite if anyone here has one. Had an account 15 years ago but have no idea how to access it now. I'd be happy to throw some $$$ your way.

— Invitations are disabled while sitewide freeleech is active. They will re-enable 12 hours after it ends —

but i'll check again if u bump this after it ends and see if i have any

I tried in vain to get someone to reactivate Adam RL's account, fwiw.

it wasn't that no one would do it but that i couldn't get anyone to look at it.

Thank you, Mordy! Hopeful bump...

fl "Ends in 1d 8h 39m" so +12h = bump in 1d 20h 39m

Gotcha, thanks.

Couldn’t help but notice this thread, would also really appreciate an invite. I‘m a member of a couple of other private trackers if a reciprocal agreement is required :)

What's the good word, Mordy?

sorry for the false hopes i apparently have none available :(

No worries at all. Thanks for checking back in.

I've been looking to get back on KG for years. Was on there and made uploads but my DSL internet connection up in the country couldn't support it and I was banned for bad ratio.

If anyone could send an invite my way, I would be eternally grateful! I have stuff to upload and a fine connection now. Thank you

Ahoy mr. Phillips! You have come to the right place. As we like to say here on the KaraGarga invite thread: "Come for the invite, stay for the posts!" We're looking forward to your valuable contribution to these fine internet discussion borads, and sure enough one day you will receive an invite. Arrr!
