I concur with the observations above: sine 1~2 days most torrents are in trouble…

RE: Problems at uploading
Quite strangely, the day after my first message, my upload speed came back to normal (~ 500 Mb/s) and remained such till today.
I've waited 3 days before experimenting to freeleech anything; I chose to freeleech a rather small torrent today.
At the very moment I did that, my upload speed fell again at <1Mb/s!!! (I've checked on www.speedtest.net and some other similar sites.)I'm left with two hypotheses:
— my ISP is delivering an instable upload trafic when I freeleech something (3rd time in a row…);
— there's an obscure unexpected interaction between gaytor.rent & my fiber box (the speed of transfers between the computer and the box, using FTP, doesn't seem to be affected)… 🤯 -
RE: Problems at uploading
@john32123666
No, I definitely have a real trouble; at the beginning of the week my upload would reach 200 Mbps at moments.
I'll keep investigate. Maybe a damaged optical-fiber cable?
Thanks for taking the time to read and answer me. -
RE: Problems at uploading
@john32123666
After some tests it seems that I actually have an upload issue. I've tested my download at 876 Mb/s, but my upload is stuck at 0.2 Mb/s
At the beginning of the week I did not have this trouble: I remember having freeleeched a torrent and uploaded more than 40 gigabytes within a few hours.After 2,5 hours of freeleech, I have 31 leechers, who are at ~ 22 % completion; thus I'll continue to seed until everyone reaches 100 %…
(And I have now to solve my upload enigma.) -
Problems at uploading
I've freeleched a torrent about 1 hour ago, for which I'm the only seeder. There are currently 12 leechers trying to grab, it but my upload speed has just fallen to ~zero!
Quite oddly the same phenomenon occurred two days ago when I freeleeched another torrent for which I was also the only seeder. I then tried many things, such as rebooting my internet box, even my computer. Nothing helped…
I will add that my upload speed is zero whichever client I use; see the two window captures (one from Transmission, the other from BitTorrent):
Does anyone has some clue to solve this very new issue? (at least to me…)

RE: Harder to upload with NordVPN?
@jjazz44 Eight months ago I installed NordVPN and it totally blocked my torrenting client Transmission. I wrote to them and got a quick answer saying that they don't implement port-forwarding “for security reasons” but that they seriously think about it for the future…
I then asked for a refund, which I obtained some days later. -
RE: A question about DMCA takedowns
@mihaig110 Same thing happened to me exactly 8 days ago. The takedown was so swift (maybe 1 or 2 minutes) that no user got enough time to even attempt a connection!
As usual my torrent (2 vids) had thumbnails, description & screenshots, which usually gets through with no problem…During the 80 minutes preceding that very takedown, I had two more (older) torrents also DMCAed!
(Three unrelated torrents deleted in that short interval of time !!!) -
RE: Duplicate report ignored
@john32123666 You wrote: “It should only works if both torrent has a seeder.”
Actually the rules say otherwise.
It is enough that the original torrent has seeders; which was the case.
As a matter of fact, some hours after this conversation the duplicate was removed (thanks to MrMazda). -
RE: Duplicate report ignored
@drekkin I'm not that stressed at all…
It's just that this reporting precisely (though renewed several times) has no effect; while I've done some others more recently, which were all taken into account.
I was rather curious to know what is special about this peculiar one. But I agree with you: it's a minor matter. -
Duplicate report ignored
I have reported multiple times this torrent:
https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=3f5cd23d7ec5608313fdca579e25a0ffd0973e634891791b
as a duplicate.The original upload being:
https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=25805b83bef5466813fdca579e25a0ffd5bae6215c9a1335
However my reports have no effect.
Seven weeks ago the staff suggested that I try again; which I've done at least 4 or 5 times since then…

RE: Regarding the <10 % difference rule in comparing possible duplicate
@john32123666
Your reply has nothing to do with my question.
I was pointing out that the site rule regarding the size comparison is lacking accuracy.Namely the expression “similar size (<10 % difference)”, that you are quoting has two possible meanings.
Rephrasing my 1rst message: if two files have respective sizes 1,000 and 1,105 then, depending on how one proceeds, the so-called “difference” may be considered as > 10 %, or < 10 %… -
RE: Regarding the <10 % difference rule in comparing possible duplicate
@Douseikekkon
Sorry for the blunder in the title…
Of courseducliacates→ duplicates. -
Regarding the <10 % difference rule in comparing possible duplicate
The sentence in the title above is ambiguous.
Suppose torrent A has size 1105 and torrent B has size 1000. Can they be considered duplicates?
— On one hand: size(A)÷size(B)=1.105, so A exceeds B by more than 10 %; ⇒ not dupes.
— On the other hand: size(B)÷(size(A)=0.90497…, so B is only 9.5 % smaller than A; ⇒ potential dupes.

RE: torrent files that only load correctly in a few clients
@urx585
I have the same issue (using Transmission on mac).
Here is an example of a torrent which is declared as “invalid” by Transmission, and has no .pad file inside:https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=60032beb6c08a7e113fdca579e25a0ff996dd7cc60dbd838&hit=1

RE: Unable to upload anything since today
@lololulu19
Well… I have one fiber box and an ethernet cable between it and the mac.
Among other experiments, I followed a procedure which makes use of an .opvn file to configure the box.
Nothing worked.
I have received today an answer (in French) from Nord, which says:
« NordVPN n'offre actuellement pas de fonctionnalité de port-forwarding pour des raisons de sécurité, mais nous discutons activement de la possibilité de l'inclure ultérieurement dans la configuration de notre serveur. »Roughly : “NordVPN does not currently offer port-forwarding functionality, for the sake of security, but we are actively considering its inclusion in our server's configuration in the future.”
According to the mail I should be refunded within 10 days…
P. S.: I'd included in my mail this image of Transmission preferences, with all ports obstinately shut by NordVPN.

RE: Unable to upload anything since today
@Justinalor
I've come to the conclusion that there's some bug on the server side.
Since my first message here, I've followed NF16's advice (above) and made use of perseverance.
Some pics made their way through after repeating the upload process again and again.
Awkward. ️ -
RE: Image upload error
@john32123666
Since yesterday I've (at last!) managed to upload one torrent, and also managed to add some pics to an existing torrent.
I'm more and more convinced that size does not matter, to say so.
In my own upload the contact sheet (.png image) was a 4.6 MB file, and was accepted immediately; on the other hand much smaller files (~ 100 kb) were rejected!
I've also observed that the same picture can sometimes be accepted a few seconds after being rejected (error 413 or error 500).I suggest an explanation to this erratic behaviour: maybe at the very moment the pics are uploaded (whatever their size), if the server is occupied with another upload, it cannot handle both tasks and issues an error message.
Now, what baffles me: why now, first time since 7 years…?

RE: Unable to upload anything since today
@lololulu19
I'm on macOS 10.13.6 “High Sierra” (and Transmission 2.94).
Believe me, I've really spent hours this saturday googling for explanations on various forums but could not get the stuff to work.
I suspect that NordVPN is designed to download torrents, but not upload.
I'll probably continue with no VPN, after all… -
RE: Unable to upload anything since today
@lololulu19
Ha ha!
By the way, I've subscribed to NordVPN today (a 2-year subscription @ 101 €), which solved nothing at all here.
Worst: while the VPN was active, my torrent client Transmission was like a zombie since the listening port was closed. I spent hours trying to configure the router, looking for advice on the net. In vain.
Thus I asked for a refund… (Hoping they will oblige.) -
RE: Unable to upload anything since today
@NF16
I've finally managed to upload one torrent on gaytorrent.ru just now.
A real pain in the @ss
A new thing to me was that Error 413 - Entity too large, which I hadn't met before.
The behaviour of the server is erratic since I could upload some 2 MB pictures, while others at 120 kB were refused!After uploading the first pic, I pressed the “do it!” button, then I added other pictures (3 of them are in limbo by now).
