Is there a "Removed Torrent List"?
-
I was downloading a large torrent called Guys Of London to try to do some seeding and limited my download bandwidth so as not to get a bad ratio.
Today though, it seems that the torrent has been removed and although I didn't really want it as such (was downloading it to hopefully make use of some spare upload bandwidth I had), it now seems to no longer exist.
Tracker failed with reason: unregistered torrent is the error message. If there was an issue and it had to be removed that's fair, but seems odd that some 30+ seeders all stopped at once AND the torrent no longer appears in the searches.
Also slightly peeving that there was a lot of bandwidthratio wasted part-downloading a torrent.
Anyway, main question is: Is there a list of recently cancelled / deleted torrents so we know to just delete the files on our drive - rather than wonder if it is a glitch and it might be back again soon.
Apologies if this is answered elsewhere but after a bit of searching i couldn't see any obvious answer.
Many thanks

There are 2 main reason it might have been Taken Down due to [DMCA], subjected to alleging copyright infringement or remove by the poster ... And it will appear as unregistered/failure torrent once tracker is remove from the list ...
Unless the poster will re-post then there is a possibility of resuming unfinished download if the file has not been change ... And if the file you downloaded is incomplete [consider corrupted files] Unfortunately there is nothing you can do [but to waste/delete what you have been downloaded] ...

Yep thank you.
I just wondered if there was a LIST of removed torrents so we could see if a torrent had been REMOVED (DMCA etc) as opposed to just "nobody seeding at the moment / temporary error" etc.
I guess "Nope!" is the answer
Thanks for your reply.

@archiver55 To answer your topic question--no, there isn't a list of removed torrents that's available to users, according to what a moderator told me a few years ago.
As @john32123666 says, torrents can disappear if the copyright owner asks it to be taken down. Material from EnglishLads and OnlyFans is often removed. If the torrent is taken down but you're still connected to seeders and/or leechers, those connections will stay active and you can download/upload material from those other people. It will not, though, be counted by the tracker and figured into your ratio.
I can imagine its frustrating to have a torrent disappear when you're using it to boost your ratio. I suggest no using EnglishLads or OnlyFans for this purpose. The torrent you mentioned (Guys of London) sounds like it might have been a thinly masked bit from EnglishLads or its affiliated studios...and those folks watch this stuff carefully.

What you've said is true - except for one minor (possibly?) point. According to a moderator I spoke with back in the 20-teens:
- Once a torrent is removed, the reports to the tracker are ignored. All transferred data AFTER the torrent is deleted is "free" (freely given by the seeder, freely taken by the leecher)
- All data transferred and reported BEFORE the torrent's deletion WILL continue to count for/against your ratio.
That's not the same for "duplicate" torrents. As it was explained to me, duplicate torrents aren't DELETED, so much as HIDDEN. That way, people who start to download a torrent that's marked as a duplicate can still finish what they started, and they're also "charged/credited" for that data as well (the torrent being reported on actually exists, it's just not listed on the site any longer).
Thus, if you download a torrent and it disappears on the site, but the tracker still shows your connection, you stumbled into a duplicate. But if the tracker says the torrent is "unregistered" - that means it's deleted... gone... vanished... torrent? what torrent? LOL
I don't think I'm disagreeing with anyone else on this - just fine-tuning the details a bit

@eobox91103 You are correct, I downloaded this Guys of London torrent and it was all EnglishLads, so I knew it would get DMCA'd hella fast.

I'm going to try and enlighten without giving away any of our staff secrets (Can't have the boss mad at me :P)
Duplicate torrents are NOT deleted, they are hidden away in a dark corner of the site where only staff can see them (So we have a record of them, and if someone uploads multiple dupes, we can message them),
All data transfered from Duplicate torrents STILL COUNTS against your ratio because you are still getting the file. If you already have it downloading in your client (according to the tracker) before it's moved, it's yours. If you downloaded it and your client hasn't started the download yet, when it reaches out to check your limits and whatnot, it will reject the torrent.
(oddly enough, I took a break from handling dupe torrents to type this haha)
All torrents that are "removed" for being duplicates will have another version of it that is pushed to the top of the main search page with a recycle icon, which means staff have removed a dupe and made the original move up (and it's freeleeched).
To address the main question being asked, No. There is not a list of fully deleted torrents. They aren't hidden from view, They are HARD DELETED. Poof, Gone, Done.
Hope that helps,,
