The most common cause of this is that your ISP's DNS servers are not resolving the IP address for the tracker for some reason. This seems to be a common problem. There are 2 ways that you can fix this:

Change your computer or network's DNS settings to use Google DNS by using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as the DNS servers.

Modify your computer's hosts file by adding two lines. If you're unsure of how to change your hosts file, I would encourage you to check out this comprehensive guide. The two lines you want to add should read as follows:

77.247.179.58 tracker.gaytorrent.ru
77.247.179.58 tracker.gaytorrent.tw

Once these lines are added, you should be able to resolve the tracker's IP, without the need for a DNS lookup. This method will work, regardless of what DNS servers you're using.

Hi Popper, thanks for your advise.

However, MrMazda(Admin staff) was great in providing me with the solution earlier below:

Basically, it appeared that my SOCKS Proxy server wasn't compatible with the Tracker's SSL settings. So I was instructed to go to my 'Profile', then 'uncheck' the "SSL Tracker" box and "Submit Changes".

From there, I had the choice to either re-download the .torrent, or change the tracker URL (similar to what you were referring to Popper) in uTorrent with:

https://tracker.gaytorrent.ru/

to the following

http://tracker.gaytorrent.tw:2710/

So my understanding is that as my SSL Tracker is disabled now, my future downloads shouldn't have this problem. I have now tested it with new downloads and all is working as it should do.

Just like to say a Huge Thank you to all!

:thx:

The answer is a bit more patience

Most torrent clients prioritize

downloads seeding other tasks, including responding to new clients

Further clients give higher priority to clients that

have given data can give data

This means it can take some time before you get a complete block (for the Triga torrent the block size is 4mb).

As soon you have some blocks complete you can seed to other downloaders and climb up the priority ladder.

The torrent is still free leech, so give it a try. Give the things you want higher priority in your client. Make sure to stop when freeleech ends not to ruin your ratio.

I see, thanks for the help!

I have tried resetting your download rights, which seems to work for most users. Try downloading something now. 🙂

Okay it works now, no idea why or how but as long as it stays fixed I'm happy.

Thank you! My overall upload speed is faster now so I think it is

Hi,

It's rather easy to "hack your account", if a person just has a minute alone at your computer; copying a single torrent you downloaded from the site (to their flashdrive?) would give them a copy of your secret passkey, which they could then use to download any videos from the site… using your account.

Since (from what you are saying) it seems your account has been hacked, you need to change your password AND passkey, on your profile page, here: https://www.gaytorrent.ru/my.php

First change your password:

enter new:
Change password  []
Type password again  []

Then scroll down, and click the "Submit Changes!" button.

You should also definitely change your secret passkey too, otherwise that other person could just continue to leech videos, by using your passkey…

Now change your passkey:

...on the same page as above, at the top... check the box next to:      Reset passkey  [__]

Then scroll down, and click the "Submit Changes!" button.

Note that:
Any active torrents must be downloaded again (or edit the tracker, changing the properties/Tracker info over to your new "Announce URL, as shown on your member page) to continue leeching/seeding, if you change your passkey.

Alternatively, you could follow this illustrated procedure for reseeding videos (where you already have the video on your hard drive), which will replace the old torrent with a new torrent with your new passkey:

S7 you say…?

Beware... Like everything else branded S7 from Samsung, I'd be afraid of getting near it for fear that it too would suffer from the Exploding Samsung ordeal lol

I had things on my wishlist prior to Christmas…they weren't changed to Freeleech.

Maybe we've all been bad so no freeleech for Christmas/New year  :blownose: :blownose: :blownose:

OK, got it. You learn something new every day. Thanks mucho, guys!

Apparently I had port forwarding set up correctly except for not having a static IP address. I've done that now and the problem seems to have resolved itself.

the uploader deleted his upload, but I don't know why

thanks for info, I was wondering if it was uploader or DMCA… lets hope he wants to make a new rip or something

This is a known system glitch. In the event that it happens again, the Helpdesk should be able to reset your account for you to resolve this problem manually.

Just so you know, when your download rights are taken, torrents that are not freeleech will not download at all. You can still seed those torrents though. As for the freeleech torrents, they may all have downloaded overnight when you left them, however the tracker will only allow you to download them one at a time. It may be possible that you found a server glitch that allowed them to seemingly all download at once, however this is not the way the system is supposed to work. Without download rights, freeleech torrents can only be downloaded one at a time.

Yes… With the GT.ru tracker, not forwarding your proper port both in TCP and UDP from your router to your computer will have a serious and detrimental effect on your ability to upload content with GT.ru. If you're interested, I can also help you with what you need, such as looking up your port number based on the data that your torrent client has previously submitted to the tracker, and also helping you setup the port forwarding in the first place.

@RectalTemp:

@cannonmc:

As for RectalTemp's comments on ourGTN, he has his own opinion. But as he only posted 9 messages when he used it over 3 months and hasn't been around since 2014 he is perhaps a little hasty with his condemnation.

I would certainly advise the OP to check it out for himself, and have offered him an invite to do so.

Thanks a bunch!
