Man...I don't even remember my password at BitGamer. I use LastPass to keep track of those things. I do use the same passwords elsewhere sometimes. Not sure if that would be the case with Bitgamer. Will have to check.

 

I had a decent ratio as well. Hope that's not gone for good. 

 

I was in the middle of downloading their PSX set (because it was a free download). This really sucks.

HOLY CRAP BUTTMAN!

 

I didn't know BitGamer was back or had been back.

 

I LOVED underground gamer and bitgamer. I cherished those sites and was devastated when they were taken off.

 

How do I get in? And has there been an alternative to the old lovely retro underground gamer?

qBittorrent has a feature called "download in sequential order", I don't know which software you're using for torrents, but this feature is a must when grabbing huge torrents, with this ON, you'd have 70% of your downloads complete.

Bitgamer is back up. You will be forced to change your password so click the reset password button.

minus.gif Aug-27-15 - Recent Downtime     //Posted by Admin

 

Sorry for the recent downtime we experienced. It seems there is someone who has a grudge against bitGAMER. We want to make a few things clear about these recent events. 

We had some messages on our twitter account asking if we stored member passwords in plaintext. This is not true, and we have never stored any passwords in plaintext. Anyone who would like to confirm this can visit sourceforge and download the original script to see for themselves.

It's correct that someone found an exploit within our site code and was able to gain access to our database and add an additional field to try and store members passwords (using an old SHA1 encryption method). We do not store passwords in SHA1 and never will, it is easily decrypted and has been for some time. Be assured that these additional fields have been removed!

We have decided to move over to a different source code that is more up to date, and which also allowed us to transfer all of our data. Our most recent backup was from roughly two days before we went offline. We have also added a Passkey System which should help members who use seedboxes. Everyone will need to re-download their torrents in order to be given a passkey. Please remember to search via dead torrents to see our entire torrent collection.

We also now have two different themes. Our original dark theme is still available as well as a light theme, go to your profile and change the option under stylesheet to suit your preference.

bitGAMER is now invite only and will remain that way.

All members have been forced to reset their password due to recent events. Please use a password that is unique to this website and not used elsewhere. This includes using uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols.

We are still making some adjustments to the site, so if you find any errors please report them in our forums.

They give you a temp password to get you in but I can't find anywhere on the site to change it to something more memorable. If any knows how...

I was finishing up my Wii set and now when I go to the site it says the torrents are dead. Am I screwed?!

 

 

I added back some 3DS torrents, only 5 torrents showed up on the site 2 of which I was seeding. So I downloaded the torrent file added it into Transmission, Transmission told me the Torrents were already added and do I want to update the tracker, I clicked yes and they started up again.

Even though it was dead?

I don't think they were dead, I'm not 100% sure how it works but I suppose you may have to wait for people to start seeding again since the closure as they will have to add the torrents at there end.
