A user named VitaminX uploaded bitcoin miner attached to an installed for BG3. The admins removed the upload after community protests went viral, but VitaminX is for some reason not banned.

Is the site compromised? Was VitaminX splitting the profits with a rogue admin?

Here’s the text in the image

If you people had half a clue what its like to run and mod a popular torrent site half the comments here would be just thanks. You think 1337x has a huge team of people moderating FREE content for you all? Let me clue you all in, this is most certainly NOT the case.

Very few people modding site right now. I can tell you this, NO one and I mean NO one is working with anyone to make money off of people on site involving moderators or admins. The people that are actively modding the site have full time jobs with families and do not look at uploads coming threw 24/7. The torrent in question was removed when it was checked and verified. Please excuse the delay as we were not fast enough for some of you and your free content. What mods are there are there just because of the community no other reason. Getting paid? Please, stop it now.

You should be wary of any software or games you download from anywhere. If you dont trust 1337x then dont go there, but to start smashing on what few moderators who are just there to support you people in your quest for good pirated material is just wrong and no where near correct.

For the people who think we are in cahoots with anyone involved with site and donations for your information none of the mods like the change that has recently happened involving donations. What sense does it make to take donations to remove ADS when and if you loose the account you are screwed? The password recovery does not work on 1337x as of now and has not for a very long time. As mods/Admins we have zero access to the backed of the site. No control Whatsoever. Never have never will. Site owner barely has any communication with the Mods if you all want to know the truth.

Posts like the OP has here makes me want to quit and let fate take its course to be perfectly honest with all the ungrateful comments for FREE CONTENT!
