TSRH site down

Doesn't matter, I stopped working for requests long time ago, because too much people were making some kind of business with the work of reversers and that wasn't my intension

@Shub-Nigurrath: Reason shared in post #4.

@sendersu: No. The team stopped working on the scene a few years ago. Now the site is also completely closed.

I am sad to see the TSRh site taken down but I agree with squareD.
For the past 3-4 years it turned into mostly a warez forum with second-hand content posted from other places.

For the past 3-4 years, we click on the "New Posts" button, we see over 90 new posts daily, but most of them are simply requests to re-upload dead links from very old threads.
The few recent posts are primarily requests for cracks from sellers, turning the site into a marketplace for crack sellers.
This situation is all too familiar to regular visitors of the TSRh forum.

The VIP user tag has lost its significance, as it was granted to nearly everyone, including myself, a few years ago, even to those who lacked the skills to create proper cracks.
Nearly every old user is a "VIP" member in that TSRh forum.

The non-crack-request posts are mostly chatter from users trying to keep the forum alive.

Sadly, much like how @sendersu, @blue devil, @wx69wx2023 and a few others make posts in this Exetools forum to keep up conversation whenever they see it going dead...
Check out the posts in this Exetools forum also for the past several months: Lot of posts but very little new information of real value...
Nearly everything shared here also the past many months is either content from other forums (ru-board/telegram) or free github type links.

It was only a matter of time before the Admins woke up to the fact that maintaining the TSRh forum was a waste of resources and shut it down.
Reasons beautifully summed up by the veteran user in post #4.

this seems to be a common thing lately for most sites in an attempt to increase post count and points to be able to access the rest of the forum... download, crack request etc.

Ultimately, the reasons that led ARTeam to shut down remain the same. They persisted longer. The only amusing aspect is the eventual sharing of a bit of information and how-tos, tricks, and so forth in the few serious, educational, and community-building spaces like this and tuts4u (along with a few others). The readily available pirated content is primarily for leechers. I hope to see TSRh friends here from time to time.

tuts4u and exetools are, however, slowly heading in the same direction, despite their administrators' efforts to maintain them. Nevertheless, they are the only forums left.

I would propose creating a sort of "band-of-volunteerous ppl" here to ensure that at least exetools posts remain high quality. Knowledge on X and other publicly available channels is mainstream, and RCE there is just for whitehats and people showcasing their skills/muscles. If we lose these forums, we lose a cultural heritage too.

Good luck with everything to TSRh!

Oh I got it! You're right. But you know; like -unfortunately- all forums do the same/similar :/

Sad news, TSRh was the first reversing forum that i joined long time ago. In this last era, I agree that the forum was almost a warez forum.

It's very sad to see reversing forums close down and this group culture disappear. Sharing, learning, meeting other people with your same interests... it seems like all these virtues are a thing of the past. It seems like everything has changed.

For my part, I wish I could contribute something, but my skills are very limited, but reversers awaken in me a great respect for this old art that is sadly disappearing.

My best wishes to the members of TSRh.

There was a long discussion on the TSRh forum about this matter before it closed.
Read my post for more details.

Guys, sorry mixing in another topic here
but recently in some past weeks I've seen many times an issues with this lamp site!
it was either Database corrupted bla bla or even CloudFlare site not reachable - last time it was like day +

any news on these strange issues, is it only me seeing it..

[Shub-Nigurrath]

Occasional hiccups, nothing serious ..

[ZeNiX]

On Sunday, there was a power outage and were not there to restart the power supply.
However, I, myself, encountered the same situation several times today.
We will check the log of couldflare and fix the problem.

Can someone confirm that this forum is opened by the real TSRh members? Or is that something else?

[sandalik]

The new site is not affiliated to the old TSRh forum. Fake just like the exetools.net site.
But some genuine reversers who did not know that the site is fake did register in the past 20 days, in that site. So yes, CodeCracker, rooster1 and a few others are real ones.

Such sites are typically set up and kept running until they get heavy visitor traffic and then the site suddenly taken down and the domain sold off for profit.

The tonyweb.xyz, tsrh.live, tsrh.xyz, uret.live, uret.xyz, exetools.live, exetools.xyz all used to be fake sites and belonged to same group and used for fake sites.
I am naming the above domains since they are no longer active.
