Projectw.org Gone, No more ! - RIP

I’ve decided to close ProjectW down since I don’t have time to run it anymore. It was fun to do 3 years but now the time has come to shut it down. Big thanks to all posters, donators, VIPs and most of all mods and admins. Good luck in the future, GRIZZLY

Yesterday I got a shocking news, a view at projectw.org . Its no more, its gone ! :( . Message was there by Grizzly thanking the members and mods, yesterday. Right now its parked for Sale and sedo. Its said that server required a lot of time, money and of course security.

NOTE : I am getting lot of spam stating “I am new projectw”. Please refrain from posting any links, I guess naming it would be enough.

Its Back !! :D

  2. Dangit says:

  3. Richie says:

    Try this http://www.xboard.org/index.php

  4. Richie says:

    Also http://www.appzpla.net/forum/

  5. Chris says:

    I was thinking they were hacked as its now a parked adds site!

    So fast and there gone!

  6. BigBoy says:

    Then use …….

    warez-bb.org
    zipile.com
    and
    waushare.com
    katz.ws

    They’re large sites.

  7. Andalucien says:

    Sad to hear that pw is gone, but all the staff have migrated to http://warezws.com. So hopefully we see u there.

  8. flake says:

    sad about the projectw story. but i know the real story behind them going down. they have too many errors on their database. and the owner is lazy to reup and correct that big database. we talked to their mods/admins on there irc server. and discussed about working for SimpleZone.net they agreed. and started working for SZ but after about 12 hrs they changed their minds they deleted all the stuffs on SZ. but still alot of PW members have joined SZ and its alive.. and we hope SZ makes the new born PW in the future

  9. jed says:

    it was a great site! ;/
    and where will I download scripts and templates now? ;/

  10. PierzOr says:

    Dont go to Simplezone, most ProjectW members, including the whole staff have moved to Warezws.com & are building yet another fine warez-community wich is growing pretty fast. So join us & make ProjectW come back from the dead.

    www.warezws.com

  11. SharingBoard says:

    sharingboard.com is a nice one…

  12. ImpSoul says:

    Heres another warez site.

    and

    puzo.org

    rapidshared.org

  13. Lee says:

    so sad about it!
    PW was the greatest site i’ve ever visited!

  14. rok.my.sox says:

    I was very sad when I found out that it has closed, but http://www.warezws.com/ is just like PW (Thank god!) and the layout is the same and there are a lot of PW members there, so I’m happy again =D

  15. TiLt says:

    Tjek this topic: http://www.warezws.com/viewtopic.php?t=28582

    “Other forums are trying to ‘CLAIM’ they are the new ProjectW when in fact
    this is false you our old loyal members from ProjectW know who we are
    and what we do the moderator list speaks for it’s self the originals are back.. “

  21. Graphikx says:

    ProjectW was the best site EVER! A lot of stuff that was hard to find.
    I’ll check out warezws, but I don’t think it will be so great as projectw.

    Also check out forumw.org!

  22. John says:

    A lot of the members from ProjectW have gone to Warez-BB and they have a whole thread talking about it and meeting the old members.

  23. rohit says:

    warez-bb.org,even better than projectw

    RIP projectw

  24. johnny says:

    It’s the name really..

    I like the name: projectw.org,
    everytime I turn on my computer,
    the first address I go to is
    projectw.org,
    I know other warez sites, but projectw.org
    was just unbeatable

    Where should I go to surf now??

  25. waterpolo7 says:

    try projectw2.informe.com

  26. Izzy says:

    Johnny says:
    “Where should I go to surf now??”

    Well, you could start by reading the other topics in this thread!!!

  27. Rob says:

    warezbb is similar but no other sites I have been on are as oranized as pw was.I was a member with them since 2004 and it sucks they are gone but there were forums before them and there will be more after them so we will all survive

  28. okwudili daniel says:

    I was also shocked to find that projectw.org is no more. I will nonetheless try the warezws.com. It was really a good time being with projectw.org.

    Regards.

  29. amir says:

    forumw.com with 270,000 members.

  30. Apache says:

    Projectw was the best site. Whenever I was online I opened the page. For the poor country like Nepal, where softwares are hard to find and ebooks and other resources are easy to find in projectw. One fine day, it was gone.
    Was googling for similar site and found this page. Thanks a lot Sreejith for this page. Got lots of info. Will be surfing the net more. Best of Luck. One day, world will be free.

  31. xoop says:

    forumw.org and warez-bb.org are the most active now, with ~1000 users browsing at any given time

  32. Johnny E. says:

    Most of projectw members are being reunited apparently at: warez-bb.org
    The layout look gay, but it is the biggest warez board now after the closing of projectw

    ProjectW: RIP 2004-2007

  33. me says:

    warez bb.org is the no1

  34. Blades&Flames says:

    Yeh, PW was a good site, but there was problems for about a month before it closed down. WarezWS is the new site, and it looks good. Thanks everyone for the info on other sites.

  35. boby kingh says:

    Sad sad sad

    Good thing there is Warez-bb.org

  36. Vicky says:

    Yep no issue Projectw was the best site .. lest see warezws

  37. PW Rule says:

    The reign of ProjectW (No.1 warez forum) has finally ended. This is a sad news for everyone. Let’s carry on with our life still.

  38. Nightbane says:

    another really good wbsite is warez-bb.org its the best one after pw.

  39. radix2005 says:

    it so sad that projectw.org was dead, but there’s a lot of good forums such as board4all.cz and whereisit.org these site’s are also nice.

  40. mukesh harsh says:

    but warezws.com has similar critical error problem.
    where i go? will projectw grow again ? we should pray to god for this.

  41. aminoy says:

    I’m really sad coz i get use to that site man… we hope it’ll be back..

  42. Prateek says:

    SHOCKING NEWS!!

    1. ProjectW

    .,……

  43. miro says:

    we lost a great place. real shame.

  44. abid says:

    yay! I was really unhappy about projectw dying but WarezWS looks awesome. I hope it becomes as great as pw.

  45. thedude says:

    peoplz come 2 xclan.info its just like pw but you can change the site and it has cool feats not only that you can download music games and every thing! come but dont go 2 xclan.com ok? good

  46. elimah222 says:

    it was a skock 4me one day to c that the PW was no more… as i was a new member… hope that it will be back as it was before… thanx to the family of the PW….

  47. cuteo says:

    yeah, warezWS has the soul of PW. It’s cool !

  48. DDeM says:

    PierzOr,

    What’s wrong with the registration system on WarzWS? I keep registering but can’t seem to get a proper activation key. Is there an email address for administrators and SysOps?

  49. someone says:

    go to simplezone.net for warez LOL

  50. Cheppe says:

    PierzOr, if you are using yahoomail or gmai check your junk/spam folder, sometimes it was stuck there

  51. crop says:

    Same here, was with projectw for a long time but can’t seem to be able to get into WarzWS
    registered but no return email.

  52. Y2J says:

    “What’s wrong with the registration system on WarzWS?”
    The same here, I even tried the ‘forget my password option’ but they said “your account not yet activated !” are they do it manually or what ?

  53. Goobimama says:

    Wow sreejith. 34 comments! Anyway its really sad that projectw has closed down. The guy should have handed it over to some other deserving admin or something. It was a good run. A good run. Projectw, I will never forget.

  54. Sreejith says:

    try searching Google for “projectw” :P

  55. Lusha A says:

    Damn! I loved projectw! Where are we suppose to go now? If you have any suggestions please let me know! Thank you for all your time. It was the greatest!

    Sincerely,
    Lusha

  56. holloway says:

    wow…cool though..warezws.com looks really similar..lolx..i wonder why they make it damm similar…btw…i hope it is as good as pw…. PW ROX…. too bad its a history

  57. holloway says:

    zzz..warezws.com doesnt have that much of what i want yet….still too new….

  58. Sriram says:

    iv used projectw a long time now for a large no of e-books on practically every topic imaginable…it had become de rigueur for me to visit the site every time i was online…
    its weird, but i think il miss projectw…
    hope to see it back up n running soon.

  59. adnan says:

    NEW SITE DOES”T CONTAin the old database which shows projectw is not transfered to warezws.com or any other……..

  60. casgoox says:

    warezws.com is the alternative solution - it is better if the domain projectw.org is reclaimed and rebuilt.

    i like the name = project for the world (if projectw is meant to be so), cause i saw other like projectvn, projecttr (project for vietnamese, for turkey…).

    projectw is a great site as you might get good links w/o thinking much of trojan or malware inside. then, no sex stuff to maintain the site. it is just so good.

  61. Dhanesh says:

    Its so sad, projectw.org has to close down.
    And that too in this way. Projectw was the best and had been my source of “sin” :)

  62. daunknownsoldier says:

    could someone please send me a VALID activation key for photoshop cs2 v9.0? i lost mine when my mother put both the activation code and recite threw the shreader before i was able to even able to check the software. thanks a lot and wish the site could still be up i was able to read it 2 times during this school year and it was the bomb..

  63. Nailz says:

    Dang real sorry to hear that, is there any way to get a few CD’s sent to my yahoo?

    Rah Digga-Everythings a story
    Guru-Jazzamattaz V 4
    Brooklyn Academy-Academics

    If you could do that for me I would appreciate it!

  64. governor707 says:

    I only joined projectw about 6 months before it went down, but this find just made my weekend!

  65. remedlem says:

    I have Been In A forum..www.boduashi.org And i have to say this rulez…cox its one of the best warez forum on vbulletin and the management is really frndly…and it is fun to enjoy…please visit and join www.boduashi.org

  66. newbe says:

    but a great effort by the founders and crew

    i really managed to get some really awsome

    stuff that has impacted my life ….

    LATE COMING NEWBE

  67. TheLurker says:

    I’ve been with ProjectW for a long time. Kinda sad to see it go. :( Overall it had a pretty damn good community. ProjectW R.I.P.!

  68. qeqe2 says:

    of course, warezbb is the best after projectw

  69. freak says:

    ProjectW was a great forum and i used to love the ebooks collection there alongwith other things. I am wondering from where i will get that exaustive ebooks list now :(

  70. Hitesh says:

    PW was the greatest man. But warezws is just like it and all the old guys there too.Cool.

  71. bintana2003 says:

    I was shocked when i read a writeup on www.projectw.org and it says that its already gone… I was an active member of this site for more three years and suddenly its closed… it is indeed a sad news for me..but anyway this site really contributed a lot to me..thouhgt me the ins an outs of computing, from standalone pc to networking… thats why i really loved this site.. anway GRIZZLY really did a grat job for making this site and i will always remeber that there was one site where i learned a lot… and that is “www.projectw.org” VIVA to you GRIZZLY and more power

    Thank You…

  72. CrazyGuns says:

    shareandsharealike.us has been there for over three years now and its a really nice site!

  73. Zaul says:

    Wow, it really surprised me, I almost had a heart atack when I realize the site was CLOSED!!!
    You really scared me bro, but now Im coming back to life with warez WS, thanks a lot , let the Comunity rise again, let no one stop us and KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!!

  74. stickynips says:

    PW’s biggest competitor, warez-bb.org, must be happy about this. They’ve probably seen a huge spike in new user registrations.

  75. PierzOr says:

    stickynips said: PW’s biggest competitor, warez-bb.org, must be happy about this. They’ve probably seen a huge spike in new user registrations.

    yes they have, though ws is still better organised as wbb & imo they have a greater shot to becoming as good as pw.

    warezws.com

  76. PierzOr says:

    Warez-bb:
    Our users have posted a total of 2116019 articles
    We have 301349 registered users
    Most users ever online was 1491 on Mon Jun 25, 2007 8:53 pm

    Waresws:
    Our users have posted a total of 66196 articles
    We have 47655 registered users
    Most users ever online was 639 on Thu Jun 28, 2007 8:32 pm

    So this means that wbb has about 3 times the number of articles warezws has, but you gotta remember warezbb does not merges articles.
    eg: Search for the movie hostel came up with 140 articles… on ws that would be 2.
    So if you want dozens of articles to go through till you find a working link, go to wbb, if you want a board wich is clean go to warezws.

  77. kris says:

    guys…
    Check forumw.org similar to projectw… really nice…

  78. fulsik says:

    Can’t believe PW is gome, i was a member there for years but never visited/posted much.. sad to see it go.

    The owner should of atleast told us it will be closing down and he could of passed it onto someone who could run it! not just close it down!!

  80. NahSoR says:

    Yeah, Even i was shocked…

    Anywayz, life goes on,

    for those looking for alternatives like me, try these:

    warez-bb.org (looks really good)

    softlinkers.org (index of best warez sites around)

  81. hilal says:

    shame on you grizzly

  82. Priyanka says:

    Well it is really sad that projectw.org is no more. I was it’s active member from more than 2.5 year. Hope it will come back after some time.

  83. Baba says:

    It’s Back

  84. Zeus says:

    ProjectW and Warez-BB were once synonymous, until Revan ‘nicked’ the Warze-BB database and sent Grizzly and his Dutch sidekicks into the void from which ProjectW began… and it was all downhill… dreadful modding and poor website maintenance, even Limneos Net was in better order… heh, and that Adodenhaag Mod was such a tosser, seldom did I ever see a soul so far up their own arse that they’d lost the sight in their eyes… RIP

  85. Deepak says:

    hey Guys,
    good News Projectw.org is Back as Our Community on the pages same files and everything nice cheers and post all need full things

  86. amin_86 says:
