almost ready to call it a day

He is a great guy very friendly but the site has been stressing him out as of late so tbh I for one would understand. To many leeches on the site take it forgratten I am not saying there is anything wrong with leeches but when they complain about the limits or they complain about indexed posts when it has nothing to do with the poster what the content is it just really extracts the urine

So the only way to down load NZBs is currently to hand over money? lol

Unfortunately, no one can be told what the NZBMatrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

I do not think its gonna be perminant

you could always gleem the info from merlins and search the group using binsearch

Not for me. I haven't donated and its letting me download.

According to them you can't give them money anyway as the donations system was down.

Everything except retention is limited to 20 days.

I doubt its a perminant measure. I think the servers have been hit hard since newsbins closure and its folding under the strain give it a bit of time

As punky said, you don't get the older nzbs... But that doesn't matter much if you just want current stuff. You also can't download naked nzbs either, only zipped ones... but that's hardly a problem.

I donated a long time ago to Merlins Matrix and Newsbin. I also have memberships at dogz and did have one at united forums but thats gone now too
