While I agree that this is not an isolated incident and PTP has long had technical issues (really sick of PTP staff insisting that it's fine for the SSL tracker to be broken for a year and that users are being unreasonable for wondering when it will be back), it still has a tremendous amount of content and abandoning it is not a small choice to make. Hopefully they get better a better sysop and infrastructure as a result of this - the "PTP tracker is currently experiencing issues" banner was practically burned into the homepage for the last 5-10 years. Never seen another site with so many tech issues.
