They go down frequently and are notorious for being riddled with trap files and malware. No one should be using the bay anymore. 1337x has the same problem now but slightly less than the bay, and a lot of domains are now honeypots. This guy probably read one post about piracy close to a decade ago and NEVER learned anything new after that.

lol, talk about a lack of standards
It's really not a chore if you don't pick super exclusive trackers. RuTracker, if I remember correctly, doesn't really have requirements to join, and they don't even monitor ratios anymore. All files should come with English tracks, and your browser can already auto-translate the site for you. Even the ones that do require seeding give you a grace period to build it up, and all you have to do is set an automatic ratio goal of 100% or so on your torrent client.
I thought it was understood that 1337 is about as fucked as the bay? Private Russian trackers are universally the way to go, but there's still better resources outside of that on the reddit megathread
