@zullu Yes, the tracker seems to be non-responsive for me too.

"collection" spam
i've noticed a significant uptick in new torrents that are just repackaged forms of previous torrents with a barely coherent theme with flimsy titles like "EU fan sites", "muscle fuck scenes", etc.
there don't seem to be any clear rules to prevent such "collections" from cluttering up the list of torrents, or the enforcement seems pretty lax.
if nothing is done to prevent this type of abuse, it will become harder and harder to find properly indexed content.

RE: Most of my files are red
@turlough I've been experiencing similar issues since the last 3-4 days. I'm using qBittorrent via VPN so it's unlikely that your setup is at fault. It's more likely that there has been a configuration change in the DoS protection for the tracker preventing so many of us from connecting. It's hard to imagine an actual DoS attack lasting so long (although I don't know this for sure).

RE: A connection attempt failed in download
@MrMazda Have server-side changes been looked at so far (the entire stack from the DDoS protection to the actual tracker service)? To my mind, there has been sufficient evidence to indicate that none of the affected users have changed anything in their client.
I'm down to seeding barely 100 torrents down from approximately 16,000, and I'm seeing a steady uptick in the number of reseed requests since the start of the outage. If a fix is not found soon, I plan to stop seeding entirely for the time being.

RE: Most of my files are red
@vashkevron From what I can tell, it appears to be overeager DoS protection. For instance, if I switch between different VPN servers, things suddenly start working again for the first few minutes before dying back down.

RE: A connection attempt failed in download
It is good that the issue has been acknowledged finally.
Besides the immediate fix, it would be very useful if the admins could come up with one or more steps to more conclusively determine that the server/tracker is at fault in the future. Anything that avoids the unnecessary tug-of-war that transpired over the last 2 weeks as we tried to convince folks that there is a problem with the tracker and not with individual user clients.
Regrettably, some users ended up resetting their passkeys in the false hopes of a quick fix - another thing that could have been avoided by a quicker acknowledgement of the issue than the 10 days it took here.

RE: Big White Boy torrents
Would it be possible to take action against this trolling uploader? They don't seem to have stopped. Within the last month, they have created 20+ new torrents with the obscure "big white boy" moniker.
-
RE: Most of my files are red
@spiffyweasel-0 Also, nothing has changed in my client+VPN setup for the last ~3 months so it's unlikely to be an issue we (the users) can fix.

RE: A connection attempt failed in download
@DirtyNick same here, nothing has been resolved yet. Since you reset your passkey, you'll need to redownload every torrent to start seeding again.

RE: "collection" spam
perhaps these are just blatant attempts at baiting other users into downloading humungous torrents to boost their seeding ratios.

RE: "collection" spam
@frostycab your suggestion about giving feedback on user reports is excellent. you should probably create a separate discussion topic for it here so it gets more attention.

RE: "collection" spam
@frostycab maybe we can use a carrot instead of a stick to solve the problem?
well-curated collections can get some special "featured" tag to indicate that they're worth downloading. that could make the site easier to navigate as well, by allowing users to search by the tag and bypass all the spam.
there's precedent for doing this in other open collaborative contexts. for instance, wikipedia.org as well as pbc.xxx have "featured articles", indicated by a star on the top right of the page.
in any case, we can talk all we want but real action will require site admin input. i had reached out to them earlier asking if they are open to accepting new code maintainers or contributors but never heard anything back. maybe it will take another upstart competitor to show up for gaytor.rent to finally up its game.

all links redirect to urlrw.com
clicking on any link on the site now takes me to urlrw.com, which is basically just a front to advertise their products. it doesn't subsequently redirect me to the actual link i clicked on on the site.
can we please get rid of this fake redirection or replace urlrw.com with another link redirector that actually works? alternatively, if there is something i'm doing wrong here that will make this issue go away, please let me know.

RE: Film 911 movies
@jokuihmemies all modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, ...) have page translation built-in, so that hurdle can be easily crossed.

RE: Film 911 movies
of course, there are also other trackers like pornolab.net that don't seem to care about dmca at all.
-
RE: Film 911 movies
a recently uploaded torrent was taken down in a record ~3 hours. i'd guess the owner of this content has some special connection to the site that allows them to bypass the standard dmca workflow for reporting copyrighted material.

RE: which movie is this from?
@jwpyle3 thanks, it looks like it's from twink top but something isn't adding up. the guy with the red cap in this photo isn't in that video at all.
