From the site:

DT is offline!

Our financial situation has been critical for the past few months, and the donations very slow. Since DT is a torrent site, our advertisers are not being kind to us either. You may have noticed recently that all the ads were removed from the site.

Currently we are looking for donations or else we'll be forced to shut this site down. The traffic is increasing and so is the cost of maintaining our servers.

Please donate, even if its a small amount and save this website. DT will be closed until we have reached our goal amount. In the mean while, we'll be studying other strategies to overcome the rising bills. Thanks.

this is what is written on the piratebay site ..
The Pirate Bay was started by the swedish anti copyright organization Piratbyrån in the late 2003, but is since October 2004 separated and run by dedicated individuals. Using the site is free of charge, but since running it costs money, donations are very much appreciated.

It might be just that the people who are running the site are wealthy enuff or have good channels to input money into their site......on the other hand desitorrents is managed by a single fellow ..so he might be having less cash on his hand to pay for the servers cost and stuff ....and besides we desi's are stingy ....we dont donate that much easily.

Local & small forums & sites will be closed soon.....or have to closed due to no advertisement... even now ad blockers & flash blockers activating in all pcs....so no money from ads.... only giant & huge traffic sites/p2p clients will survive.....
now work with globalization.....

Is shutting down Torrent sites/Warez Forums a Publicity gimmick?

First you chose to bump a dead thread which is no more relevant now and then you chose to ignore a Sticky thread which tells us that torrent invites are no more encouraged.
