Using uTorrent 2.2.1 - often can see there are some unconnected peers on completed torrents even though port forwarding is working good here (plenty of other peers can connect). If I remove the torrent, then add the .torrent file back, at least one or two more can then connect and download.

It's like the torrent goes stale quickly, and needs manual refreshing.

Also, when uploading using the very handy Uploader, sometimes nobody connects. Removing the torrent and adding it back gets the party started.

Are these known bugs, or do I need to spray the computer and bless my knickers?

I have the same issues.  Sometimes pausing the torrent and restarting it helps, sometimes closing the torrent software and re-opening it helps, sometimes removing and re-adding the torrent helps.  Or maybe those actions just seem to help?

If there are only a few seeders and I can't connect to any of them to download, making the torrent free leech has always worked for me by attracting seeders I can connect to.

I understand that the nature of torrenting is that there will inevitably be peers that your software can't connect to for whatever reason.

It's not just this site.  I use another site for non-porn videos and music with torrents that often have only one seeder.  Downloading from that seeder can be intermittent and very slow and it can take several weeks to finish a download.  Sometimes another peer will show up and make a huge difference.

It seems that communication with the gaytorrent.ru tracker is infrequent and that may be exacerbated by having a large number of torrents (> 1k) seeding.

Anyone expert on the back-end torrent stuff, please comment to confirm or deny my observations!

@ashley1992:

Just wondering if anyone knows the full video of this clip, taken a screenshot in case anyone knows.

Did  you message the uploader on PornHub to ask?

@alcrow:

Thanks for the fast reply. I will keep doing the exercises, it's still better than doing nothing. I will definitely check out Reddit too. As far as diet is concerned, getting rid of sugar is the hardest part for me, especially when my mom keeps baking one delicious cake and cookie after the other. … I'm trying to restrain myself from eating them though, with more or less success.

The pleasure of eating a cookie only exists while you are actually eating it:  looking at it, smelling it, touching it, putting it in your mouth, chewing it, tasting it, swallowing it.  Five minutes later, you have only a memory of eating the cookie.  The memory is pretty much the same whether you ate three small bites or three big cookies.

If you only ate three small bites, you don't have the remorse from eating three big cookies.  So if you are very conscious about eating treats, savoring them in small quantities and then deliberately recalling the experience, you will learn to enjoy eating treats in moderation more than in excess.

It might also help to go on YouTube and watch some especially disgusting mukbang videos to see how gross overeating is.

@eobox91103:

Should I also pull the flashlight out of my ass?

No, better leave it in there.  You might need it to escape from the FEMA camp after they take your guns and force you to wear a mask by supergluing it to your face while you pray to Obama.

@furfiend:

Have you ever tried out a weight training exercise you haven't done before – so you pick a weight to start...  One rep, you think, "Oh this is easy.  I may need a heavier weight."  After three reps, you start feeling it.  And after six reps, you literally cannot do another one?

Is this normal (especially for underworked muscles)?  Or could it be a sign of too much caloric deficit or something?

I haven't had that particular experience but it's muscle fatigue, not caloric deficit.

@ManHandler:

I read what you said… Sounds like you're saying that anyone who makes an analogy that points out hypocrisy is racist. Which is ridiculous. You're like the Borg. The collective sheep herd mentality. It sounds... like you're a communist. Cuz commies love collective mentality. They like everyone in neat orderly little groups with labels.

You're supposed to put the sanitizing gel on your hands, not drink it.  :blownose:

@MrMazda:

Just to be clear, we take the privacy of our users very seriously. As such, we take complaints of revenge porn very seriously. In fact, under Canadian law where I am, The Criminal Code of Canada s.162.1(1)(a) is very clear that revenge porn is a federal crime, and that it is punishable by up to 5 years in prison. Many other commonwealth countries have similar laws surrounding the subject. This is a large part of why we take these claims seriously.

There's no federal law in the U.S. but it is a crime in almost every state, from misdemeanor to felony.

@ManHandler:

Are you fucking kidding? You're talking about "right wing" and using a picture of Lenin?

Why bother to comment on a post if you aren't going to bother to actually read what you're responding to? 

@jelybeen80:

there's nothing that turns me on more than a boner

I agree with at least part of what you said!    :cheers:

@jay230:

I've discovered my issue has to do with the tracker thinking I've reached my maximum leeching torrents . Currently I have no active torrent files other than the ones I am seeding and the tracker seems to believe I've got 13 torrents that are also leeching. I order to get the file I was trying to torrent working yesterday I had to stop seeding several torrent files in utorrent

Are you seeding any multi-file torrents that you only downloaded partially?  For instance, a collection of twelve videos and you only downloaded eleven?  Those torrents will not register as seeding but as leeching, even if you are not trying to download.

This is another good reason for members to avoid uploading large collections as a single torrent.  Anyone who downloads only part of the torrent will lose a download slot as long as they seed.

@fun17:

Taking regular medications for someone living with HIV is really important to reduce the viral load in blood. But apart from medication, what is your advice?

General advice that is even more important for someone with HIV:

Stop drinking alcohol completely.  Alcohol is poison and can interact with medications.

Be proactive in managing your own health care.  Know your meds, labs, etc.  No one will care as much about your health as you do.

Tell your doctor about any recreational drug use, even if it's alcohol or marijuana.  If you are worried about how your doctor might react, then that will be one less thing to worry about.

Practice safer sex and in particular, use condoms.  You don't want to give someone else HIV.  You don't want to get chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital warts, syphilis, hepatitis, etc. on top of the HIV.  You don't want to get another strain of HIV, either.

@mmmgash:

Hi,

There's a torrent I've reported a few times now because it's basically my material but I haven't given permission for it to be uploaded and it's essentially revenge porn. Is there a way anyone can contact me regarding it being removed please?

Use the "Helpdesk" link in the drop-down menu under "Support" at the top of the page to message a moderator and give them as much information as possible.

@Guzzofan:

He's not under any obligation to help me, no. But I definitely don't appreciate being cockteased like that. It's the equivalent of dangling the carrot in somebody's face, only to swipe it away when they reach for it.

And I don't have any desire to ask the higher ups to delete the thread either.

Well, your post supposedly requested advice and you got it but it seems that you didn't really want it.  What you wanted was to complain and to try to ruin his reputation, but it backfired.

Of course when someone initiates this type of public shaming, they have already realized they are probably not going to get what they want because the only way this sort of post would help if is the person was truly unable to follow up for some reason and is also very, very nice.  Many or most people would just say "screw that dude" if they were the subject of a post like this, even if they would have responded positively to a PM.

You can't really win with this post because it makes you seem vindictive.  Would anyone who reads it want to get involved with any sort of interaction or deal with you in the future?  No.

I won't post in this thread again and won't even say "good luck" to you.   :afr:

@ben351500:

Been seeing older stuff re-issued as "pop up." Is it sort of like the old VH1 "Pop Up Video" music video shows? Or is this just a ploy to get us to re-use older videos?

Por qué no los dos?

I have been wondering that myself.  According to Wikipedia, the "pop-up" refers to the speech balloons or info nuggets with commentary and trivia about the video.

@andergarcia:

Really???  
Never heard of that before!

Looks like it may have been the standard mostly in English-speaking countries.  It was required for hygiene but only for men, not women!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nude_swimming#1900s

Just skinny dipping in a swimming pool as a Cub Scout, probably age nine or ten, with the usual swimming pool horseplay that I enjoyed a lot more than most or all of the other eighteen or so other boys.  I was completely innocent of sexual things as a child, but was aware that I enjoyed physical contact with males and that I was attracted to some of them more than others.

The adult men were on the other side of a pond, probably drinking beer or something.  When we saw them headed over, we put our swimsuits back on.  I can't imagine a group of boys of that age being allowed to go swimming or even near a swimming pool without adult supervision these days.

Some older men may remember when swimming pools were segregated by sex and men did not wear swimsuits but were required to swim nude.  That lasted into the 1970s in some instances.  I never got to experience a swimming pool full of bare-assed males, except on that one occasion.

One year in college, I had a former high school football player as a randomly-assigned roommate in the dorm.  He was a year older than me, very masculine, with a beautiful body.  He was a really nice guy and fun to have as a roommate, like having a big brother who was really cool.  He was in a fraternity but couldn't afford to live in the fraternity house so he lived in the dorm.

His dick was so big that he had to wear a jockstrap to keep it in place.  He had to wear a jockstrap even when he was wearing underwear.  He had trouble buying jeans that had enough room for his dick and thighs without leaving a huge gap at the waist.  When my friends came to the dorm room and met him, I could always tell the exact moment when they noticed his dick because of the expression on their faces.

I had the bottom bunk and he had the top bunk.  He would undress at night and leave his clothes on the floor.  He would put one foot up on the edge of my bed and jump up into his bed with his dick and huge, low-hanging balls swinging around less than two feet from my face.

Sometimes when he went down the hall in the morning to take a shower, I would reach down and grab his jock strap off the floor and jerk off while sniffing it.  Once he had a bad case of jock itch and it smelled really nasty, so I sniffed his dirty tee shirt instead and found that I like the smell of the dried sweat from his armpits better, anyway.

@Guzzofan:

I think you're missing the point there. I have sent him several messages on the other forum, which he hasn't responded to. I can tell that he's logged in there many times since he sent me the PM. He could just respond with a simple "I'm busy at the moment, I'll get to it later", but he hasn't.

Yes, I did miss the fact that he had logged in, and I can see how you are justifiably irritated, but posting about it on the forum with his username still doesn't help your reputation and is unlikely to get him to follow through any more than a PM.   >:D

@jk06:

Does anyone like the fact that they find nudities (especially full frontal with penises) in common (non-porn) films? I usually will jack off to it and get very excited, more than from watching porn.

Sure, I like that if the guy is hot, but I don't get as excited about it as you do.  Can't recall ever jerking off to something like that, but I have stopped the video to watch the scene in slow motion.

I saw Gewoon Vrienden (2018) a couple of weeks ago.  It was a made-for-television film and there is no frontal nudity but there are a couple of scenes that exist only to show off Josha Stradowski in his underwear and one to display his bare ass.

There are a bunch of compilations of "male nudity in mainstream films" on Pornhub, if you're not aware of them.

It's not something I would normally do, but one time a guy started going down on me in a taxi when we were taking a long ride from the bar back to my place early in the morning and I couldn't get him to stop.  Both of us were very drunk, of course.  At some point, the taxi driver asked if he could have sex with us.  That was a real boner-killer and I finally got the guy to stop and zipped up.  :blownose:
