because the way zima bot works.. is that you crack your own password to site A but you want a pass to site B but you can't seem to crack it... you hit up the bot and give it a password to site A... you then get 1 credit to request a pass to any site you choose..

even sites with amazing password protection like karups have tons of their passes floating around on those channels, cause their crackers are the best around..

but now that they are down, they won't be able to get word to majority of their people on where they are relocating, (cause majority of surfers don';t know about their website, and only their irc channel)

so password trading should be down for a long time now.. till they group up on a different irc server and get the word out (which will take at least a good 4+ months)


great news
