WarezUSA or USAwarez

[Mr Happy]

To0 is out soon (hopefully) and I was trying to remember what was the domain he had. It wasn't a dot com and it wasn't the current site warezusa.org that UncleSam runs and was the one To0 had the first one in the series. I remember their being some story over a split DB but can't remember the domains.

Any old skool member able to remember the story for me, it's wrecking my head.

sub'd this will be a interesting topic

The actual real reason I'm trying to remember is I want to add a description to wrzc.org but I'm also really interested in the story. I remember To0 trying to sell something too but can't remember what site. It was all very confusing.

Yeah i partially remember this all happened when i first joined you guys

[snowmanrene]

Original one was USAWarez.net I believe.
Then when ozman bought the files and DB, it was .org

I could be wrong though.

i kinda remember the story

To0 sold .net & .com to ozman, someone else got him the files and an old db

To0 took back one of the TLD because of some setting on the domain. i think To0 had .org but then all the usawarez simply disappeared one day?

from what i understood at the time, ozman got screwed by To0, and alot of hacking/Ddos to ozman sites happened etc. 2 much bs if you ask me

short story he owned the .com and .net... Don't know who he sold it to or why..
He was a close friend.. I helped fix his site and upload private files...

He was hosting copyrighted files for his vip section. Soon after police and all found out he was already on house arrest for some what the same crime before when he was selling movies (dvds) and the police raided his servers and found him offering direct downloads..

He was in trouble for the direct downloads and for receiving money for his VIP

wtf, some inaccurate answers here!

To0 founded USAWarez.com in 2006 (as a forum, as opposed to the old CMS), where it stayed at fairly low traffic until mid-2007. Through various methods he obtained large amounts of traffic fast, and with a solid brand, and brought up the website to 40K members earning a good amount from VIP donations ($200 - $300 per day). FBI took down USAWarez.com in October 2007; I remember this time very well as To0 and I had some disagreements at the time.

He returned in February 2008 to make USAWarez.net, and built up a nice following again. However already by mid-2008 he had once again shut down the website pending personal issues.

There was a controversial deal that occurred between To0 and Oz187 resulting in Oz only receiving USAWarez.net, and To0 once again starting USAWarez.com (December 2008 - early 2009).

To0 is currently in federal prison relating to the original takedown, and will be around shortly. Used to know the guy very well, so will be good to see him back.

I owned USAWarez.org (the domain) originally and created UnitedWarez.com during late 2008. I either gave the .org domain to To0 or sold it.. I forget. I sold UnitedWarez.com to virusdevil during mid 2009.

Regarding WarezUSA - guess you could say it's an imitation (as it was started well after the original USAWarez). Nada to do with the glory of the original site.
