Archive unreachable at Asstr

[Hilda]

Has anyone actually managed to download the torrent? I'm not seeing any peers let alone seeds and, well, you would think there would at least be one ^ right? Kind of an empty gesture if nobody can download it.

look, im not a techno wiz kid. I made the torrent and put it out to seed. beyond that i am clueless. I left it running for DAYS, the port open and I even served it up on a silver platter. Empty gesture, hardly, I tried my best to help.

Definitely not an empty gesture. I'm grateful to WB for taking the time to compress the archive, create a torrent, and seed it for several days.

Big shout out to WB for getting it going.  I was able to get it, though it took several days and beat the crap out of my computer.  I finished the download during the recent billing outage where I kept reloading the error page for a few days, thinking the site was down.

Optimally you need 3 strong seeds for a fast download in BitTorrent.  Let me know if we need some help seeding and I'll give it a go.

Only if you can spare the time bro. Trying not to put anyone out.

I'll seed it for a while if given the link/torrent.

Ok since people are still asking for it, here is the magnet link: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:dffee0182441bde7f0d09e13adb2f5c867487070&dn=www.asstr.org.rar

I will remove this post if asked or an admin may remove it if they don't want it to be here.

So, the big question is.... why did ASSTR go down? Nobody seems to know at this point.

There were some other conversations throughout the board but the short version is that the people in charge of it didn't pay the bill and didn't want to run it anymore.

There is also a copy of the site up at https://asstr.xyz/

Great catch. This seems to be Asstr as of 2017. The Kristen bookshelves are there. As is the collection menu at https://asstr.xyz/~Kristen/

Someone referred to this but didn't offer details. The Asstr USENET groups are on

Hey, I'd love to download it and keep it up as a seed. I have fiber internet and like 16 TB of spare drive space. So "computer load" is not a problem.
