Disqus is Deleting Pirate Site Communities on Short Notice.
Disqus is Deleting Pirate Site Communities on Short Notice.
After ~15 years of relatively plain sailing, Disqus is terminating pirate sites for violating its terms of service agreement.
After 15 years or so of relatively plain sailing, comment platform Disqus is cracking down on sites that violate its terms of service. Pirate manga and anime sites have received notifications that Disqus will no longer provide services after copyright infringement came to its attention. With evictions now spreading to sites including FitGirl Repacks and KickassAnime, it's a race against the clock to export years of chat in the 24/48 hours notice given.

I never saw the point of having a comments section to some of these places.

Are you kidding me?
The amount of times I've helped and have been helped by people in the comments is not insignificant to be just ignored.
Especially websites like FitGirl, where you can help people fix issues with games, help them install patches and updates, and install mods on the cracked games.

This. So much this.
The comments section of Pirate Bay (back when it was good) was how I learned to troubleshoot pirate game installation.

Exactly this, has multiple times that people in the chat have solutions to issues I had.
I wonder and hope there will be a replacement for the chat system.
-
There absolutely will be. I don't see Fitgirl opting to not bother. The real concern is those messages getting preserved.
