Unfortunate that they purge their database of unseeded torrents. While there wouldn't be the same incentive as on a private tracker for people to come back and reseed something, removing them decreases the likelihood that niche releases stay available in the long term.
I agree. They could have just marked them as dead instead of deleting them.
Yeah there's pro's and con's to it. I like using it knowing that whatever I search, I'm not searching up dead shit. But you are right also.
