- CyberDildonics 3y agoAre you trying to say that 110k page views per day is the same as google executing 8.5 billion searches of the entire internet per day?

- sbdaman 3y agoI'm not surprised that a haphazardly organized group of people /can/ run a site like rarbg. It's just interesting how volatile (this isn't the right word but I'm not sure what is) the operations of these sites tend to be in light of the fact that the sites hold a lot of cultural value. RARBG was incredibly popular and was an important resource for torrenting. It's rare to see sites of that size and importance run in that way these days.
