@raphjd I've seen a few posts about that, but I don't remember seeing an explanation of it. Please forgive me if this is repetitive, but why no requests anymore?

@john32123666 ty for the update

upload rate updates every 30 minutes or over an hour from those torrent you are seeding ...
so if you continue seeding w/o any interruption all the amount uploaded from peers is divided from the torrent,
automatically added to your RATIO ...
see RATIONATOR for details: https://www.gaytorrent.ru/rationator.php

you can see all the progress seeding and leeching torrent ... from above image I provided ...
a 500 MB + upload share = (+) plus 1 added to your RATIO
a 500 MB download = (-) minus 2 or more deducted ...
This relies on bandwidth speed and the peers you are connected with ...

The 21 GB is the [RATIO] total amount you distributed and shared from all peers connected to you ...
[your total share from this distribution is already added and calculated from your account w/o noticing] ...

@loststoner said in Do I have to....:

Also what is the quickest and easiest way to get my upload ratio increased?

In addition to the freeleech approach mentioned by @bi4smooth above, you can download a torrent file into your client but only select a very few files to download (maybe 10% of the material). If you do this very soon after the torrent is posted to this site, you'll get that small amount of material very quickly, and then become a "source" for that material for other leechers, and you'll get a lot of upload credit.

Also, keep seeding anything you're already downloaded, even if you don't want to keep the material for your own collection. I have some torrents that I downloaded years ago that occasionally get a hit from someone.

Finally, if you have some material tat isn't already on this site, create a new torrent to upload, and that will get you a bunch of upload credit. If you don't have anything like that, I can put some on a cloud site that you can download from and then post here. Just send me a PM and we can work the mechanics off-line. (I hope this doesn't break any site rules.)

to prevent others from abusive/deletion of torrent ...

@nagatha95 I have experienced the same issue with recent builds of Transmission. This is not only this tracker that the issue seems to affect, as my radarr grabs from another of many others for movies, too. I migrated to deluge, because at least it still works, and remains completely open source. People crap on it a lot because its written in python, and isn't the most efficient client, but it's worked reliably for 4 years after I made the transition, its really nice to be able to put the client into a virtualenv sandbox and I can't complain.

@wikidude said in donation paypal:

At this time, BitCoin is the only method being accepted.

Hello WikiDude,

Are you sure BitCoin is the only method being accepted? The Donate page still allows members to click-through on the choice for credit cards processed via Stripe..

@lololulu19 Yeah I guess I did miss your point. I was thinking well you could've been someone famous, maybe I would've wanted your jizzed underpants...

@john32123666

Nice answer, and bonus I learned something here.

When your account ratio is less than the Minimum Required Ratio, a warning will be automatically sent to you and a grace time period will start. During this grace time, you will ONLY BE ALLOWED TO DOWNLOAD TWO TORRENTS AT A TIME. If your ratio is not improved by the end of this time period, your download privileges will be temporarily suspended until it is fixed. (). You will, however, be allowed to download from freeleech torrents.

That is very nice that even when privileges are suspended, freeleech is still available as an option to strive for better. One will just have to keep it running and sharing as much as possible.

(Found at https://www.gaytorrent.ru/rules.php - which I apparently need to read or re-read sooner rather than later.)

Thanks everyone for your help and clarification, very much appreciated!!

@kalayaan thanks. I just reported a duplicate, just according to the terms you indicated.

@rluna6492 You can always download freeleech torrents. They don't get added to your downloaded volume but if you uploud they do count.
You can find freeleech torrents by going to search and select freeleech only. Also keep seeding long enough.

No limit on free leech torrents, up to how many you can have altogether. Your limit is on your profile at https://www.gaytorrent.ru/userdetails.php?id=1405738

For example, here's mine:

Permissions You downloaded 0 torrent(s) in the past 24 hours
You are allowed to download 151 torrent file(s) per day. This is based on your share ratio of 2.296 and 72 uploaded own torrent(s).
We added 1 torrents in our calculation because of your recent Donation(s)
Donated in the past 30 Days:

It doesn't matter if it's 1 or 100 torrents.

Nor does it matter if anyone actually tries to get any data from you, just that you made it available.

I agree! Sometimes you don't know how many videos (if there are any) or other stuff is included in the torrent… it would be nice to have that info a bit more specified in the post.
Thanks!  😉

@JohnAllenson:

Quick question about the category "Jocks"
The term is a bit ambiguous, it is athletes or underwear focused?

Its a body type and age sorta thing.

Twinks, Youngbloods, Jocks, Hunks

One other small comment regarding adding photos to a video torrent…When that torrent get old and worn, and then someone tries to bring it back to life with a reseed, then those that have the video but no longer have the images will never get there torrent to show as a seeder.  It will still seed the video to new leechers, but will never switch to a seeder.
