MODERATORS
Because they're needlessly elitist and self-congratulating. The whole point of piracy is to spread stuff, not gatekeep it. Enforce quality control, vet those who can upload, put checks and limits, maybe even put rules against hit and runs, but do not close the access to downloading stuff to anyone.
And yet these places succeed in creating true archives because they don't allow free loaders
People who think like you do so because you don't appreciate the effort that's put into creating an environment where torrents don't die.
From those top sites stuff can then be spread via people making requests at more accessible trackers.
What's the evidence that they managed that because they were closed?
Keeping torrents alive and allowing free downloads aren't necessarily related
