I agree, this entire thing looks very blown out of proportion to me. It’s not the first time and not the last time there will be malware in a brand new game torrent on 1337x.
This exact situation has happened before with a new game torrent that had malware, torrent eventually got taken down, and nobody raised a huge fuss other than not to download that torrent.

From where I’m sitting it looks like classic overconfidence. I would say keep your eyes open in the future but don’t pick up the pitchforks just yet.

You can feel their frustration in this post. Being a mod is a thankless job.
So why did he defend the torrent in the comments and said it was not dirty and the uploader is not banned? This defence is laughable.
You should pin it
