APPROVED CONTENT AND DISAPPROVING MEMBER BEHAVIOR
-
My understanding, based on the rules of this site as well as on previous discussions with moderator, the late Kinsey6, is that voyeur videos ARE allowed here. And based on the messages I've received, they are very much appreciated, if by an esoteric group of which I'm proud to be a member. That said, I recently received a threat by (member's name removed), threatening to report me for uploading, "this shit," re: voyeur videos. If the genre is allowed and each upload has been approved and is within the rules of the site, I should NOT have to deal with member threats regarding content. Such behavior is not only offensive, it threatens the integrity as well as the very existence of this site. A site so many of us enjoy and sincerely appreciate. I feel this topic needs to be discussed and I hope others, including staff, will weigh in. Thanks Brothers!
As with television, if you don't like the program, change the channel. Don't impose your personal hang-ups on others by attempting to force programming change.
IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, PRINCESS: IF A SPECIFIC UPLOAD OFFENDS YOU, AVOID IT. IF THE MATERIAL ON THIS SITE IS NOT TO YOUR TASTE, YOU DON'T BELONG HERE. AND DON'T LET THE DOOR SMACK YOU ON THE ASS ON YOUR WAY OUT!
EDIT: Offending member's name removed. We do not allow naming n shaming threads/posts.

First off let me say :thankyou: for uploading stealfire. Alot of members do there fair share to seed torrents but uploaders got he extra mile to prepare fresh new content and share it with the rest of us.
Voyeur torrents are allowed on this tracker….unless the involve banned content suchas underage guys, real rape or anything else listed here in the banned content thread.
In the future I would recommend using the report user button for whatever user is bothering you. If there profile is not viewable then report the PM or torrent comment. That way mods can track any unwanted behavior by a specific user.
…it threatens the integrity as well as the very existence of this site…
LOL. I think the tracker has done just fine with rowdy members and will continue to do well. ;D
The only real issue I have with your post is that we never want to tell a user to "go away" because of one comment. Remember that this tracker hosts members from around the world and sometimes language barriers can make a comment appear offensive when it is not meant to be. You should see some of the mod discussions we have! With a score of mods from around the world we come across the same problems with communication sometimes.
If you receive any more negative comments from any users that you feel is flaming then please report it. The last thing we want are discouraged uploaders who stop sharing.

Interesting problem. Just have one question….
Is it that you are wanting the "Click here to report this torrent to staff for violation of the rules" button removed ?
If your answer is no, then your issue is with him messaging you with a statement that he was pressing the above mentioned button, and not the "ability" to make such reports, right?
I agree that this move (pressing the button, then messaging you) was unnecessary on his part; Pressing that button is the only remedy he has available if he believes material is in violation; Yet pressing the button AND contacting you to tell you he pressed the button seems redundant.
I suspect that pressing the button alone, for him, did not serve as pleasurable an experience as he thought it would be. So, in an attempt to create this feeling, a message was sent to you, in insulting tones, as an attempt at emotional compensation for the again, already mentioned-as-less-than-fulfilling, pressing of the button.
I dare say that the actions of a person going to those lengths becomes something of an absurd farce….. and perhaps even comical. You, on the otherhand, should take comfort in your knowledge that what you have uploaded is, on its face, indeed approved content.

I'm thinking this (member's name removed) wanted to vent his frustration by taking it out on poor Stealfire.
You get my :hug2: for keeping your cool in the face of antagonists.
-
Just to clarify things…. stealfire is correct in that voyeur videos are permitted on the website. There was much lengthy discussion on the subject of whether or not they should be allowed. IIRC mgr's only possible objection was the issue of invasion of privacy, however it was decided that nevertheless they are allowed on the site.
-
If you find something offensive, then use the report button and let we the staff look into it. DO NOT harass other members.
Another point is that we do not allow "name n shame" posts/threads. You can make all the posts and threads you like about bad behavior of other members, but be general in your comments and make them about the actions you do not like, not about the other member.
If you don't like something, then don't download it.

@stealfire ~ If you still have the PM he sent you forward a copy to me please.

Just one final word:
stealfire - good thing you reported that torrent comment: result: that comment was deleted. If the user contacted you otherwise: please report such PMs too so we can take further measures in the future. Insulting/flaming PMs usually end up with at least a warning and can/will result in a ban from our site if repeated.
Just a note about torrent comments: We do NOT ALLOW flaming or insulting torrent comments at all (and frown on advertising or spam comments). Alas currently staff does not get information about all posted torrent comments (usually only by accident or by reports). So we need your help to do something to keep order also in torrent comments - that is why there is the report button. (BTW: PMs from certain members (not from staff though) can also be blocked).
We accidentally found some help requests also in torrent comments - be prepared they won't be answered in a timely manner (see above) - the last comment with a support question was answered a year after posting it.

Thanks much for the support, comments, suggestions, etc.. Thank you also for the clarification that voyeur videos are allowed here.

Thank you very much for your feedback. While my comment may sound overly dramatic, the basis for it is legitimate. I live in a conservative state, in a conservative country. There are active laws in place regarding both distribution of voyeur content and copyright protection. I'm no martyr. If anyone of us should stop posting due to the possibility, however improbable, of outside harassment, then the site IS compromised. And that would be a shame.

Sometimes scensorship is over-rated. For example, as controvercial as some of your torrent uploads are in some areas, they're hot nevertheless. That's part of what makes sites like GT.ru so freaking awesome.

I'm always amazed at the lack of trolling and drama on this site, the mods certainly keep things hassle-free. I don't know what kind of voyeur videos you have uploaded stealfire, but I have downloaded a fair few hidden cam in locker room videos. For those ones that I don't think are staged, I only give a passing thought to the privacy of those on screen, I'm afraid horniness usually wins.
I've always wondered about the site's policy on celebrity 'sex tapes'. I presume they would be outlawed on the grounds it may bring unwanted attention to the site on legal grounds. I have several involving football/rugby players being very naughty on cam, but wouldn't dream of posting them for that very reason. Besides, it's just hetro action and obviously no one on here would be interested in fit sportsmen indulging in that.

Clearly you've never seen some of the staff discussions :rotfl:
-
I'm intrigued - which category are these movies in? Or can I have a name of a title or two someone has uploaded? Thank you. Very much concur as long as illegal behavior (underage, rape etc) has not occurred, wonder why this would bother someone? If you don't like it, don't watch it. Thanks
-
I'm fairly sure it would be the fetish category being as they're voyeur/spycam type videos…. That and just knowing stealfire's interest in content to a certain degree, it wouldn't surprise me if it is.

I'm sure they would be very popular if they get posted. Of course, show some screenshot to a Mod first to be sure. It's appropriate here as long as they don't involve female in a sexual nature and if they do then post it on the sister site SexTorrents.

I think you're joking but just to be clear, I would LOVE watching sportsmen involved in naughty behavior! Please DO upload any and all torrents of this nature (drool!)!!
