Seeding Bonus Anomaly
-
I'm confused on how they calculate the seeding bonus. On other torrents tracker, the bonus gets beefed up pretty quickly. Here I've noticed over the years the bonus inches forward at snail's pace. There is a need to upgrade this thing as one can be seeding for days with little corresponding uptick in bonus.

If seeding 24 hours a day nonstop, then earning 12 bonus points per day, as per bottom of page, here:

That's what I'm saying. It's pretty miserly, sorry to say. Other sites are more generous. On gay-torrents.net, for comparison, my bonus shoots to 1000 in a few days after I've exchanged juice.

It may seem miserly, but that's the rule here. On ourGTN there is NO bonus, but then there is no ratio requirement.
When you join a club you accept the conditions although there is nothing to stop you lobbying for a change.
I note you have downloaded stuff but have no bonus points for category votes. Vote for each complete download and get 2 points a time.
There's a number of other ways to increase your bonus points that can soon add up

Thanks for your reply. Yes the rules vary but it was not that slow here earlier on. I've been a member since 2010. Anyway, I've not tried OurGTN. If you would be kind enough to send me an invite please?

Anyway, I've not tried OurGTN.
Their site is setup miserably, has much less content, frustrating to navigate, and I feel pretty certain you would find it a huge disappointment (even from what you are complaining about here).

Thanks for the heads up. I was wondering if I could find rare content on that platform. MuscleMatt vids, for example, are so rare to find. I'm talking about the titles #100 and above as the earlier ones are available here. Sometimes you get lucky on these little used platforms. No?

If you could explain the voting for category? I've rated downloaded torrents but to no avail. Is there another way of doing it? If you could please enlighten me?

If you want to send me a PM with your email address, I'd be happy to send you an invite to OurGTN so you can see for yourself. I've checked, and see that I have exactly 1 invite for that site.

Thanks for the offer. Your current security settings don't allow me to do anything, including sending PM.

Actually, I had just changed my security settings to accept PM's from anyone just prior to making you that offer. Perhpas it takes a while for those settings to take effect? (Maybe the moderators can speak to this). In any event, do try again at some point, and I'll be sure and reserve this invite for you.

After you download any torrent when you go to rate downloaded torrents, at the very top you will see a link to click on to select what category you think the torrent should be included in. You can select up to 5 categories if you feel the torrent fits into them. After you have completed the category selection the system will notify you that you have been awarded 2 bonus points. Easy to do and these points do add up for you to use. While you're at it don't forget to also send a thank you to the uploader. No points but believe me it is much appreciated by the folks uploading the torrents we like and the bonus here is that a thank you encourages the member to upload more of the torrents you like! :thx:

I agree, and strongly recommend. I am rarely, if ever, at a loss for seedbonus points when I need them.

:clap2: to Bluesurfer - a great explanation of category vote and a bonus for encouraging thank yous. :true:
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 for the explanation. Yes, I do try to thank the uploaders as often as I can.
