Lately I've noticed duplicates with a twist; a dupliacted file, plus a zip file. In the example i give below there's nothing in the description indicating what is in the zip file. Would such a case be considered a dupliacte?

Thanks mucho.
Negative feedback can be useful, if done appropriately. I once downloaded a series of amateur clips of a really really hot guy. Unfortunately the uploader's description did not mention that the clips were without sound and none of them included the Happy Moment. Downloader beware of course, but if I had known these things I wouldn't have downloaded in the first place. When I mentioned the lack of sound and Happy Moments in the comments section, the uploader got very hostile, as if it was a personal attack. I didn't respond.
I think that negative reviews of content are often perceived as attacks. They shouldn't be. If there is an issue with the torrent, then we should know about it.
On the other hand all abusive, personalized attacks should be reported immediately.
I know that we want people to upload stuff, but I have a question relating to several TV shows and movies that have been posted recently. I think it's all about definitions and what we want on the site.
Lately a movie was posted that had handsome shirtless men, but no gay charactors or plotlines. Another recently added TV series with the same issues. Are these appropriate for this site?
I understand that if something was created by a gay author (ex: Oscar Wilde) or has a gay subplot or characters (although not being specifically gay themed) or even a gay actor in a non-gay role, it would be great to have on the site. I suppose that the centrality of the gay elements would determine if it is "gay content" and/or "of gay interest."
But if something is posted merely because it has a handsome actor shirtless in a scene, or a man in tight pants, is that appropriate? I'm not even sure that it would fall under "gay interest."
Not sure if I expressed myself clearly, but I thought I'd throw the topic out there and see what people think.
Aha! I think I get it. I've turned off my computer multiple times since October 2016.
Thanks for the insight. Mucho apprreciated! Also for the promoting; the guy is totally hot and should be gazed at by everyone.
Not sure if this should go in the Upload or Download topic, so I'm asking here. Please shift this to the appropriate topic if need be. Here goes:
I’m a bit confused about the death and resurrection of torrents. I’ve been reading the forum topics about this, and either I’m being dense (always a possibility) or the answer wasn’t directly explained. So please bear with me.
I’m referring to this torrent, “Sam”: https://www.gaytorrent.ru/details.php?id=aa55be3fc03953701c723d1e2447d4a82b5380323a230f1d
I downloaded this back in October 2016 using uTorrent and have had it on my Download list all this time. At some point (I don’t recall exactly when) the color of the arrow went from blue to red which, if I recall correctly, means the torrent can’t upload/download. I checked on the site, and the torrent was listed as dead. In the past couple of days the torrent seems to be alive once again, and it’s uploading (which makes me happy of course). I’m just confused by the sequence of events.
I’ve been a seeder for the torrent ever since I downloaded it. How then can it be considered a dead torrent? Or am I not understanding what makes a torrent dead? Or am I misunderstanding the torrents’ status completely?
Not a problem, really, I just want to be an informed participant.
Thanks!
Aha! Thanks mucho. Sometimes when we look for something and it's right in front of us, we don't see it at all.
Thanks! It is what I thought it is.
Is there a terminology definition page somewhere in the Forums?
Oh, and, along with technical terms, acronyms used here as well.
Just curious about what a snatch means, and how it differs from the number of Seeds and/or Leeches. Is snatch the total number of unique times that file has been downloaded? That's what I THINK it may be, but I'd be interested to know for sure.
Was looking around the forum for some sort of terminology page, but didn't find anything. Is there a page that defines all the technical terms used? As a non-techie, I would find such a page interesting.
Chhers!
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Armond Rizzo; he's quite the moaner, and a very talented bottom to boot.
I find the videos done by the Latino guy with the big pecs and nips (middel link in the original post) give me instand rock-hard wood. But there are very few videos out there that focus on sucking nipples, let alone ones as magnificent as his. I think I've downloaded everything available here. Would love suggestions on where to find more.
I agree with KakuBr's second post. You don't trust him, which is prerequisite for anything above the "cruising in an alley" relationship. His defensiveness and avoidance only shows that your suspicions are hitting pretty close to home. Don't bother looking for excuses to drop him - just do it.
I completely disagree with the post above - what you describe are all classic abuse. The violence, the manipulation, the gaslighting, the degredation (sp?), etc. He's got you feeling so ashamed, so down, that you're too embarassed to seek even professional help. I mean, if you fear that he might use his gun on you, how can anyone say that he's just a big selfish dick? I helped run shelters for abused women in California for three years, and what you describe sets off all the domestic violence alarms.
All I can say is that for your own safety and sanity you need to leave ASAP. And I mean physically leave. I have no idea where you live, and what sort of resources are available, but you do need to seek professional help in getting away. It's unfortunate that people subject to abuse often find leaving a very difficult thing to do, but relationships like this generally tend to NOT get better and often get much worse.
If you are in the US, Canada or Europe, there are often resources pertaining to domestic violence, some of which focuses on the LGBT community. You can anonymously approach any number of resources; your local LGBT center (if there is one) is a good place to start. Even contacting a resource for DV for women (in California, the YWCA often deals with DV issues) might produce some good advice or referrals. Many areas also have DV toll-free hotlines that you can call.
But the most important thing is that you get out of there; nothing is more paramount than your own safety, whatever your partner may try to say.
Good luck.
I'm not sure how clinically correct this is, but a common definition of addiction is an action or thing that must be indulged in that starts to affect the normal operations of daily life. While it sounds like it isn't affecting most of your daily life (work, finances, housework, personal hygene (sp?), etc) it does sound like it's affecting your love life, either as an impediment to having a good relationship, or as a sign that your current relationship isn't working for you.
Either way, find yourself a good gay or gay-friendly therapist who specializes in relationships and/or sex addiciton and talk to him/her. You may get some valuable insight into what's going on in your sex/love life, and perhaps decide for yourself if you have a problem.
It's the timing that is so strange - as soon as I had the file freeleeched. It wasn't a duplicate, and for it to be DCMA'd within a few minutes after I freeleeched it would be an extraordinary coincidence. It was, literally, searchable one minute, then vanished the next. A well, this is life. Wish I could get my seedpoints back, but then again, it wasn't a lot of 'em.
OK, that was the last question, I promise!
My only interest stems from the fact that I see a lot of dups, and in some ways I'm a little jealous because I've tried to upload stuff myself, but haven't been able to in the past three years due to open ports or something like that. I think it may have something to do with the fact I live in Sri Lanka, and have a Sri Lankan provider? Anyway, I want to participate but have found that aspect frustrating, especially when I have some stuff not yet uploaded, but I see others benefitting from working the system, so to speak. So I guess you could call it jealousy of a sort. I've managed to build up my ratio through a combo of adding pics, finding dups, and making annual donations to the site.
Anyway, thanks mucho for answering my questions. I know you guys are super busy, and I appreciate all the work you guys do to keep this site up and running.
OK, thanks. Just to be clear, this would include serial duplicators, even if they are eventually denied privaledges (sp?), not just the ocassional mistake-makers, yes?
Hi all. I have a policy question for members of staff. If someone uploads a duplicate torrent, and it is reported and deleted, does the uploader keep the seedpoints he earned for the duplicate? What about any "thank you" points?
(I posted this last week at the end of a long thread and got no response, so I thought I'd re-post as a new topic.)
Hi. So I downloaded a torrent some time ago (10/16/16) and today I noticed that I was the only seeder. So I thought I'd take advantage of that and Freeleech it. I did so, paying around 150 seedpoints. After a little bit, I checked the Freeleech page and yup, there it was. After a few hours I checked uTorrent, and noticed that there had been zero action with the torrent. So I went back to the Freeleech page, and couldn't find it. I then did a search for the file, and couldn't find it.
Aside from the seedpoints I spent on Freeleech-ing the file, I'm very curious to know what happened to the torrent. Here are the details, gleaned from uTorrent:
Massaging Sam - File name: Sam.wmv Size: 807mb.
Can anyone offer any insight?
Thanks mucho!
