@MontanaJones:

When you say:  "turn red" do you you mean in the µTorrent client?  I am currently experiencing this, I have about 50 torrents seeding and different ones will alternately go red, then fix themselves while yet a different one that was working will turn red, it seems to be completely random. I wasn't sure if it was a µTorrent specific problem or with the tracker, either way I have been baffled

The issue you are witnessing is most likely just an adjustment in your µTorrent client and can easily be fixed.
Open your µTorrent Preferences choose 'Queue Settings' and make sure that the value of
'Maximum number of active torrents' is higher then the amount of torrents you want to handle parallel (up- and download).
Save your new settings and you should be fine.

Hope this is of any help,
Gerald

This is a mayor change not only for the site but also for the community.
The addition of a MMF-Bi categorie seems rather natural and would shurely be welcomed by the majority.
Personally I'd rather not be bothered by straight content. An option in my basic settings that I only see gay/MMF content would be nice.

What worries me a little bit is that the site could become overrun by straights (we all know this phenomenon from gay bars).
We could face comments like 'GT.ru is a great site if only there weren't so many gay users' or worse comments that gay sex is disgusting …

There are a lot of things to consider but we know how proffesional the GT.ru staff works.
So I am confident and look forward to whatever changes there might come.

Thank you GTru-Team for bringing back the forum. I really, really missed it!

If it has to be just one movie I would go with

Jean Daniel Cadinot - Le Coursier

I am a sucker for cheesy storylines and this movie delivers. The adventures of a messenger transporting sextoys from point A to B is just hilarious.
The cast is diverse, the protagonist very sexy and the sex a little bit on the raunchy/kinky side … and let's not forget the soundtrack ...
and you can watch this movie multiple times without getting bored.

p.s.: Runnerup for me would be BikeBoy by Eurocreme/Dreamboy

One always reads about these three books that one wants to have with him/her while stranded …
Let's apply this question to porn and make it just one movie.

What movie would you like to have with you?
You are very welcome to elaborate why 

I personally don't have a big problem with the order additional pictures are published
as it's the same order one has to add pictures when uploading a new torrent (last picture first).

You can see in the majority of uploaded torrents that the uploader thought about a proper presentation
of his new torrent. All the more annoying when someone adds additional pictures and ruins the layout.
Often one has to be grateful when the added content is even from the same movie …

At the moment the only way to prevent adding new pictures is to upload 10 pictures or more.

I wish there was an option on the upload page to disable adding new pictures.
Maybe radio buttons 'Enable adding further pictures' with the default-setting 'Yes' ...

OAKLAND (CBS SF) — The Occupy Oakland encampment recently broken up outside City Hall was the setting for a gay pornography video apparently shot on site.

New York-based Dirty Boy Video set their latest flick, “Occupy My Throat,” at the encampment at Frank Ogawa Plaza, using footage of the protests in their B-roll before going X-rated.

Occupy Wall Street has grown significantly in two months from a movement grasping for media attention to a world-wide phenomenon that confronts many issues and inspires products that memorialize it — like the Occupy Wall Street coloring book and a t-shirt from Jay-Z’s Rockawear clothing line that reads “Occupy All Streets.”

Dirty Boy Video president Andy Fine addressed his company’s position and feelings regarding the movement in an open letter to Brandon Watts, an original member of the Wall Street occupation and the bloodied face of its “Day of Action.” A New York Times Magazine story about Watts losing his virginity while camping in New York City’s Zuccotti Park prompted Fine to offer him cash for the chance to tape his next experience.

“I offer you the opportunity to perform on our website, an opportunity to express yourself and your politics freely and without censor. Working together we can create a sexy, fun platform that inspires you, be that with other actors, actresses or both. Whether you choose to work with us or not, I salute your dedication and your courage,” Fine said in his letter to Watts.

Watts did not appear in the Dirty Boy Video production and was not available for comment.

An uploader gets the same seedbonus as a leecher.
Only difference is that he might get seedbonuspoints by other users.
This gives - In my opinion  -  an advantage to uploaders of  highly anticipated
torrents from popular studios like machofucker, ericvideos, timtales and so on.
Most of them in the catageory bareback. These torrents will always receive
a ton of seedbonuspoints.

What I like about this site is the diversity of it's content. It's not
reduced to bareback, twinks and anal(clips).

Other catagories might not be as popular but they provide a wide variety
of content to this site. To increase the benefits for uploaders wouldn't
necessarily mean a lot more torrents but it will show the will to such a
variety.

Wouldn't it be nice to reward uploaders by doubling their uploadbonus or
10 bonuspoints for every successful upload?

congratulations mazda, to be an uncle is one of the coolest things there is

@ardan:

… some torrents were just unreasonable huge, and the only reason for that would be for getting seeding-bonus..

There are no benefits - apart from seedbonus gifts from other users - for uploaders on this site.
You gain the same ratio- and seedbonuses by just seeding a torrent from an other user.
The only differnce for an uploader is to get seedbonus points from other users.
If the relation size/duration/quality doesn't meet the useres expectations he simply won't give
seedpoints. And your examples show exactly that.
(The only exception is your second example: A very rare movie with a duration of 90 minutes and a size of 1.8 GB.)

I'm pretty sure that the alternative to a large file wouldn't be a small file but no file at all.

Besides 'greedy' would be one of the last adjectives that I would associate with uploaders  ???

what about
~blondes
~redheads or ~ginger

I really think that there are a few people out there - me included - who find those attributes appealing.

thank you, gerald

added all to the list

My suggestions would be:
~speedos
~lycra
~glasses
~rubber

thank you,

The GayRoom Site 'Massage Bait' does provide hunk-on-twink action quite often.
Also MenOver30 has this kind of action on quite often …

… I had my first feeling towards guys when I was 13 or 14 but didn't find it that disturbing at that time.
Thought it might be a phase I'm going through but wasn't to worried if it wouldn't.

With 15 I left home and spent most of the time at the boarding school. At 16 I had my first gay sex expierience.
At 17 I joined a local gay rights group. The same year I planned to come out to my parents, but then my brother died
in an accident and I postponed it.

Finally at 18 i came out to my parents. First to my mom who was actually relieved when I told her.
She thought I was in trouble cause I looked so stern. She told me she's not really happy because every parent wishes it's child the easieest an happiest life possible, to look after myself and have a happy life.
It took her another two years to be totally relaxed about my homosexuality.

My father was next and this was far more easier then I expected.
He was absolutley relaxed about me being gay. He cherrished the new openness between us.
We sat down at the kitchen table and talked and drank all night.
One of the best nights of my life.

I reallly love my parents for their education and their openness that made it so easy for me to find out who I am.

Hello cumeaternc,

thank you for your nice reply. Meanwhile I found out that it was a malfunction of my ImageGrabber.
So no need to change anything on thesite. Sorry for bothering you all.

Have a nice day,
Gerald

Hello Guys,

I optimized my screenshots from ImageGrabber with a width of 864 pixels.
Until now that worked fine and other users had a good preview of what the movie/video will be about.
Until now, because now - as it seems - you resize screenshots of this width.

You are not particularly uploaderfriendly, but could you at least inform us when you make
changes like this?

Sorry, but I'm really annoyed at the moment,
Gerald

In theory this would be an excellent feature. In reality it's a simple fact that only every 200th to 500th downloader user uses the existing rating feature.
And his rating doesn't even say that much. In a perfect world a 5-star rating  means the downloaded file exeeds the expectations of the leecher
(quality- and contentwise). In reality there are users out there who don't even download a file and rate it with one star (sucks!).

My indicator that I always look for are comments by other users. Not only are the usernames of the posters visible
(which fends of the grumpy/destrucive kind mentioned above), but the comments are far more detailed.

Thank you cumeaternc. I just posted this topic at the suggested thread.

… I just uploaded a new torrent and before the first leecher has finished his download,
someone rated the torrent with one star (sucks!). The video is just a view days old, so the
possibility to already know this torrent can be dismissed. At the same time torrents added a
view minutes before and after mine where also rated very low. This wasn't the first time
that happend.

An optimist would say the one who rated my torrent already knew it and didn't like it.
Me for my part suppose there are 1 or 2 users out there who are generally grumpy, don't
like a specific topic (twinks/youngblood/bareback ...) or want
to make their own uploads look good among bad rated torrents.

I really appreciate when someone rates my uploads, even if the rating isn't that positive.
I sometimes upload torrents that don't suit my own taste (but I think there are maybe users
out there who will appreciate it).

My proposal would be to link the ability to rate a torrent to it's download.
Only those who downloaded a file can rate it.

Another solution would be to list those who rated an upload with their rating and username.

The outcome - in my opinion - would be a much more meaningful/reliable rating.
A bad rating would very much more relate to the content and videoquality itself.

Is there a possibility to implement such changes?

best regards, gerald
