I think brianboru sums it up nicely 

I think, I may be wrong, smbsmbsmb doesn't understand what is being said.

If people can't be bothered, that's one point. Automating the thing that people can't be bothered with sounds silly.

I am not nagging, I don't want automation. If you don't want to say thank you, that is your choice but please don't expect the site to automatically do the job you should do out of courtesy.

It's just I was brought up to say thank you if someone did something for me, whether it was to open a door or post a torrent

That seems to be much what I said last week…

I'm missing something here. Why would you download a series of torrents if you didn't know what they were?

As someone who refused to take part in an 'equality' training exercise I have some sympathy with his action but not his reasoning

It's a good job an actor doesn't need a brain to earn a living 

@tamtamtam:

Secondly, I would just like to ask if anybody knows the reason why movie files are lately uploaded with torrent names like
mp4gaymoviemp4 or aviothermovieavi?

Erm, basically that's because that's how that uploader wants to do it - possibly to try and hide the name, who knows?

:hiya: JT, good to see you

I can't help but there is a Who is This thread if you want to try there too

It's spelled "dangerous"

Erm, we don't correct people's spelling. Especially when English may not be their first language and we know what someone means

Perhaps I will never find out - all you I could find on that blog was a skype handle and a mention of £30

I'm sorry but I can't help, not my special subject.

But you might also like to try the Who is this thread too.

And please never apologise for your English - it's fine

No, nothing EVER EVER automatic, please. I have argued against even a 'thanks' button on another site.

Thanking people is NEVER a 'pointless activity'.

If someone goes to the bother of going through the torrent list, clicking on a torrent page, downloading the torrent, is it really asking too much to pause for a second or two to click on a button, not even write something, to say thanks?

What on earth would be the point of an automatic script? The uploader would be even more disheartened to know that the only thanks he was getting was from a piece of code.

At least if I get no reaction to an upload I know no-one liked it or could be bothered

As someone who has posted stuff here which never got any thanks, points or comments, I can assure you thanks are appreciated by me.

If I don't watch a download straightaway I don't use the category vote until I've watched it. That way I know from my download list which ones I haven't thanked.

And thanking people for uploading is far from pointless. I have known prolific posters on other sites and on usenet give up because they couldn't see the point of using their time and bandwidth for a, literally, thankless task.

(PS Apart from not getting any thanks my last upload was deleted after some weeks and dozens of snatches )

leenie, you are cruel but perhaps too close to the truth  :crazy2:

Couldn't agree more

Could I give you a thumbs up and add to your reputation  

Reputation later - I'm over my limit apparently for now

leenie, I know I may be getting old but did our comments about danijelr15 get censored?

Back in my day we didn't talk about fags and AIDS hadn't been invented 

No. But if you want to give away an invite for this site you have four unused ones if you check your profile page

And you get upload credit if the person joins

I'm not really into JGV but a nice site Fabio. Well done  :clap2:

I too think it's a silly term but when I say that I usually get shouted down

It strikes me as a made-up word (yes, I know they all are) waiting for a quack to use

And thanks for sharing, I don't remember the title
