Non visible or disappeard torrent
-
Hi there. I just uploaded a 24GB torrent maybe an hour ago and even though it was visible at first, now it's not showing on the torrent list but it is also not showing on the "My torrents" section. I tried uploading it again but it got rejected saying that the torrent is already uploaded.
Can anyone help me figuring this one out?
Thanks! -
@leo2003 how about details about it? screenshot of the torrent page? link?
Sounds like it may have been removed? Not sure.
-
@cp2000 That's what I thought at first, though they send messages when a torrent gets removed, but then when trying to reupload the post the system said it was already listed!
-
@leo2003 was your client seeding it? If not, that might explain why it might have disappeared. Unseeded torrents disappear after a period of time.
-
@tnar It was and actually it still is... Have 3 leechers on it downloading it perfectly!
-
@leo2003 odd. I would try the helpdesk

@tnar Thanks, will do that!

@tnar
So, someone replied saying my torrent was deleted for not having a clear theme.
I stated that Amateur guys having gay sex is a very specific theme and then he argued back saying that no, that theme is either a studio or a performer.
I am extremely pissed off by this, that's not what theme means and also that's not what you find when you browse the torrents list. In the meantime there's torrents without pics, torrents without list of files and torrents with unacceptable quality listed.I've been uploading on this page for years now, I took a lot of time and effort to create this collection and someone with cuestionable understanding of the rules simply decides he will erese it and that's it.
He didn't even sent a message notifying, making me loose a lot of time trying to figure out what was worng and even trying to create a new torrent.Is there a place where we can call out this people to the persons running this page?
Thanks

@leo2003 I'm afraid that I do tend to lean towards the mods' reasoning here. The site has become full of "collections" that really don't exhibit any real cohesion. There are regular dumps of large numbers of file loosely bound together under the premise that they all came from OnlyFans or that they all contain barebacking. Such things, in my opinion, do not meet what I would define as a theme.
When you see a bundle from a particular studio you can probably form a rough image in your head of the type of thing you are going to see. Helix is twinks barebacking. Triga is rough thugs. Boynapped is going to be BDSM, usually with a twink subject. HungYoungBrit is generally 20-something verbal scally lads. Sean Cody tends to be full of muscled college guys. You get the idea. You know what to expect. Same with many of the well-known performers. Not so with many of these other collections.
In the same vein, "Collection of guys barebacking" isn't a theme. Bareback is already a category. Merely dumping 20 bareback videos in to a folder isn't putting together a collection, it's just lazy. "Barebacking doggy-style" or "Barebacking on the beach" I'd say would count, as they define a specific sub-genre. I hope you see where I'm going with this.
Amateurs having gay sex isn't what I'd call a theme [within the scope of this site.] On a more generalised porn site catering to straight, bi and gay people it might be, but when the whole site is gay sex, and it already feels like a 50/50 split between pro and amateur porn then that description loses any real meaning. I avoid downloads with such wide-ranging descriptions now because past experience has taught me that more often than not it's not better than closing your eyes and clicking on a random Chaturbate link.
I'm not saying this about your upload because obviously I have no idea what it was or how it was presented, but in general I'd be more than happy to see poorly-curated hard drive dumps that are just seeking upload credit removed more often.
As for your particular case, what would you like to see happen to resolve things? Your upload got removed. I can't see the mods reinstating it because you're butt-hurt. (Not trying to be mean, just saying it how it is.) The site has one person in charge, and they don't even have the time to do the basic maintenance that's needed, hence the reason why they appointed mods, and if there's one thing I've learned about the internet over the years is that if a mod makes a decision you don't like then you're not going to find anyone higher up who will back you over them.
Sorry I can't be more encouraging, but it is what it is.

@frostycab I do see your point but with the same argument I can tell you that this days bareback sex is no longer a subtheme, luckly enough drugs on the market alloud unprotected sex to be the norm. So, are those barebacking studio related items getting deleted too? And don't get me started on how many studios I can find that actully don't have a defined theme or estetics...
What would make me happy is for someone to actually educate mods not to erase a torrent that obviously took a lot of work and efford, I don't think that's much of a stretch. Instead, I got an answer repeating that amateur guy having str8 sex is not a theme, and I get that it might not be a theme when you think about it the way you do, but just go to the dictionary and read the definition of theme, and then don't erase the post that took me a lot of work and energy. Basic common sense to me.

I agree that in the process of moderating staff can be overly aggressive to moderate faster so to speak, "amateur" is enough of a theme to grant it its own category, so a collection of amateur clips should not be deemed too loose, specially if it contains properly named files and thumbnails. But any themed collection is still subject to rules regarding to quality of the torrent itself.
Now I risk making OP even more pissed but how much effort can you have put into it if the filter is simply "amateur gay sex", that makes no sense
Depending on the size of your collection you can streamline it further into more palpable themes. I try to organize my collection based on my own kinks, despite almost all clips being amateur/homemade i try to sort them as specifically as possible:
If I created an "amateur gay sex" torrent with all my collection it would have more than 10k videos and over 140GB.

@ianfontinell-0 Well, let me describe it to you, and maybe we can then agree that a moderator's interpretation of the word "theme" should apply even if it doesn't match the actual meaning of the word.
First I have to go through my external drive to find all the files I consider to fit in the category, then move them all to a new folder inside my internal drive cause I can't trust seeding through the external one.
After that, I have to rename the files with the rigfht info, one by one of course.
Then, Image Grabber so I can get all thumbnails, which of course I can do in normal ours cause batch thumbnails on that f****r makes the soft pop up again on the screen every time it starts a new file.
Then opening the soft that will process the creating torrent feature for 20 minutes.
Then uploading: photos, description, tittle.
Then, going in to get all file names copied, and editing the torrent I just uploaded to follow the uploading rules.
Then and only then I have to fake downloading the torrent so the software checks I have 100% of the thing ready to share, which can take 10 minutes or more when I upload a collection.
See? I'm no greenpeace or peta, I am not changing the world with what I do here, still, I consider it to be very disrespectful to grab someone's work, time and dedication and simply deleted it under some idea of what the rules mean.
And this is the most ridiculous part of this whole situation: If theme means Studio or model, then they should not put "theme" on the rules. And the fact that I have to sit here and explain that as if it was me the one who wasn't doing things as supossed to, it is a shame.

@ianfontinell-0 And I will say one more thing and then I will drop this because clearly no mods or owners or whatever even care.
We are seeing more and more single files uploaded, more than ever before. You used to be able to browse 24 hours of posts in 5 minutes or less. That's what collections do, allow you to look for the specific file in the collection in which the tittle states the theme that have appeal to you. Now you go into the main page and you have to browse 3 pages for 24 hours of uploaded material, most of them single files.
Collections help the site, help the users and allow uploaders to upload more material than we will ever do if we have to do it file by file just because Studio and performer are not repeated through the entire collection.I really hope someone in charge of this site reads this, cause if this is the way things are going to be then I'm done uploading, have enoguh cache for a lifetime of downloads.
