Help for upload
-
Hey, I'm new to this site and I wanted to upload a video, I downloaded the quicktorrentmaker that is on the site, and I uploaded the file but then the window closed and idk if its posted.
I didn't really understood it well but I think I can't download torrents if I don't upload things, if someone can explain me how it works I'd be very thankful ! -
@fabr6 : I don't use that utility, so someone else will have to chime in with more info there, but if the system accepted your torrent file, it should show up in your own list of torrents (click your user name in the upper right corner, then select "My Torrents").
If your torrent file is listed in the My Torrents area, you can click on that torrent, download the torrent file you find there, and load it into your torrent app, making sure that you point that app to the folder where your local copy of the video is stored. The torrent app should parse the file, recognize that everything is there, and start seeding.
If your torrent file is not listed in the My Torrents area, then something went wrong with the process and you'll need to request additional help.

@fabr6 : For the record, you can be a good citizen here without ever uploading new content, although new content is always welcome and appreciated.
All you really need to do is keep the the torrents you download active in your app until you have uploaded as much data as you downloaded.
With some older files, that may not be easy to do, as there may not be enough seeders who want the file to allow you to get to 100%. If your overall ratio is falling short, there are two options:
-
Check out the "Freeleech" torrent list. The torrents in that list allow you to download for free, without increasing your download amount. Meanwhile, every amount that is uploaded for that video goes to increase your ratio.
-
Keep some of the videos you download active past the 100% mark so that you have a bit of buffer for your ratio.

@fabr6 : I should also add, welcome to the site, and thank you for being a good citizen here.

There are 2 ways to upload content to Gaytorrent.ru:
Download our Quick Torrent Maker (QTM). (Only for Windows) This will automate the entire process for you if you use µTorrent.
Manually upload on the site using the Upload Page. This requires an additional step to connect your torrent program to the tracker.

Once your torrent is done re-download the one you posted not the torrent created by your client ...
Then locate the destination file/folder content you are seeding and do a re-check ... Once 100% check is done then wait until someone else grab your torrent and don't interrupt your seeding while in process until 100% fully seeded and completed ...
Good Luck !!!
In case of any issues you are having with: ask helpdesk

Hello thanks for the answers,
If have a message that's telling me that I need to fix my ratio by seeding or something like that, what does that mean and how can I do it. I'm really bad at those things and i'm french so I don't understand everything very well ^^
If you could help me for that it would be nice thank you again

@fabr6 : Your ratio measures how much you've downloaded vs. how much you've uploaded. If you download a 1 GB video file and subsequently upload 200 MB of that file to others, your ratio is 0.2 (20%). The goal is to have a ratio of around 1.0 (100%), where you are uploading as much as you download, giving back as much as you take.
You can easily see those numbers at the top of your screen here when you're in the Torrents section. You'll see "UL: xxx.. GB", "DL: xxx.xx GB", and your ratio. You can also see this information by clicking on your user name in the upper right and selecting Details & Stats from the dropdown menu.
The way that torrents work is that as you download pieces of the file, your torrent client shares those pieces with other people, so that you are both downloading and uploading constantly. For a newer file here, you may find that once you've downloaded the whole file, you may already have a pretty healthy ratio, as you've been sharing with others as you go. For an older file, where you're the only one currently downloading it, your ratio at the end of the download will likely be 0.
For a newer file that's fairly active, where people are still downloading it, the best thing to do is just keep the torrent alive in your torrent client until you've given back at least as much as you've taken. Your client should tell you how much you've downloaded, how much you've uploaded, and what your current ratio is for each file in your list. Don't delete the file from the list until you've given back at least as much as you took, even if that means that you have to wait another day or two.
For an older file that nobody is actively downloading, where your ratio is zero and nothing is happening, it's still worth keeping that file alive in your client for a while, since you never know when someone might want it. Personally, I have about 50 such files in my torrent client right now.
The way I handle things is that I keep newer, more active files alive in my torrent client until I've given back at least 150%. That gives me a buffer so that I'm able to download those older files that aren't very active and where I'm not able to upload much, if at all, because nobody else is downloading.
The easiest thing to do to bring your ratio up, other than seeding new content, is to take advantage of the "Freeleech" torrents the site offers. Go to the torrent list, then click the yellow "Show Freeleech torrents" link near the top of your screen. Pick one or more of the recent items in that list to download.
Because they are "freeleech," the amount you download will not count against your ratio. The amount you upload from those torrents, though, will count, so your ratio will improve. If you pick a recent, fairly popular freeleech torrent, you'll find that you can maintain a pretty healthy upload rate, so that your ratio will improve fairly quickly.
Another way to bring your ratio up is to upload new content, where you are the original uploader. Like the freeleech scenario, it's all upload, so it will definitely improve your ratio. The longer you keep the file seeding, the better your ratio will look.
A final way to bring your ratio up is to re-load a torrent file that you had previously downloaded and begin seeding it again. You would load the torrent file into your app and point it at the video that you had previously downloaded. The torrent app will scan the file, figure out that it's all there, and immediately begin making it available for others to download.
I hope this helps.

@fabr6 : I should add that there is one more option to help you with your ratio, and that is to donate money to the site to help pay for the servers that we are using. For every Euro that you donate, the site administrators will add a certain amount to your upload statistics.
Even better, right now those donations get extra credit due to a special offer that site administrators are running. If you donate 10 Euros, for example, they'll add 50 GB to your upload stats. Donate 20 and you'll get 120 GB.
Click on the Donate link at the top of your screen for more info.
