Suprnova raised the profile of Bit Torrent, and for that I hate it! Recently, the general populace hasn't even been higher up the ladder than Kazaa users.
Seriously, I'm glad it's gone. Anytime a file sharing network gets too high-profile it gets overrun by idiots, exposed to the popular media, overrun by even bigger idiots, sued out of existence and promptly replaced before anyone with any sense even notices an interruption.
Hopefully now the fuss over Bit Torrent will calm a bit, but sadly I doubt it. I'm glad it's gone though and I hope it stays dead. It gave BitTorrent a bad name. Now I can get back to torrenting game patches and Linux ISOs.
Suprnova wasn't a tracker, only an index of .torrent links.

Just to cut all the crap rumors floating around about certain people waging war on the site and all that jazz, here is the exact PM he fired off to many of the admins. First off, we're not about to destroy any evidence, let alone making mince-meat of the forums by removing over 21K posts (7K posts plus 3 x quote/reply factor)...
