    • RE: My first and last day on the Forum

      @storemyshit said in My first and last day on the Forum:

      I won't waste my time debating ignorant, entitled right-wing dickwads who happen to be the forum administrator (sharing links from idiotic fascist sites).

      Good call. But you can block the so-called "Politics and Debate" board so it doesn't show up. There are few other boards in the forum that can be worth reading, and they're largely garbage-free.

    • RE: Site changes 7 March 2022

      @F46660T It sounds like the moderators/help desk have been more than patient with you. They are very busy people, and don't have time to read long, run-on narratives asking for a favour that isn't accommodated by the site software.

      I suggest that before posting on this (or any other topic), you might type out your message in a text editor, and clean up your writing to be shorter and focused on the points you want to make. You might consider using a structure like:

      • This is what happened
      • This is why I don't like it
      • This is what I'd like to see done to "fix" this.

      You'll get more attention, and possibly some action, if you do this.

      Also, the bottom of your pasted in chat window says "WikiDude wrote:" and then nothing follows. If you got a response to your concern, it's not fair to omit it from your discussion.

      Finally, I see that you've pasted that very long chat image to three different threads in the forum. That's probably not going to help, and it might hurt your "case" if people get pissed off.

    • RE: Finished file showing as leeching and blocking download slots

      @kulmel36 If you didn't choose to download all of the files in the torrent (i.e., if you de-selected some that you didn't want), that tracker software will consider you to be leeching the torrent even though you have downloaded the bits that you want. This will take up one of your download slots. There's no way around this other than to remove this torrent from your active torrent list, but that also means that you won't be able to seed to other users and get credit for that.

    • RE: Find other uploads made by a user

      The site tries to keep users anonymous for everyone's protection. You could try adding a comment to a torrent you like to the effect of, "@uploader: I like your stuff. Please send me a PM with links to any other torrents you have uploaded."

    • RE: Is this site owned and operated by one person or group?

      @dretafari This question isn't likely to get an official answer: The owner(s)/operator(s) of the torrent site prefer to keep the inner workings confidential, for their protection and the protection of the site. This is quite understandable given the complexity of the legal issues involved.

      I have a hunch, though, that there is some robust planning to keep things going in the event of unforeseen problems. Several years ago the site vanished completely, but was back within a few months.

    • RE: Scotland officially bans free speech

      @homppeliboy Welcome to posting on the boards. Unfortunately, you've noticed the worst thing about them: There are a few trolls on here who, when they disagree with your viewpoint, will start insulting the poster, rather than making arguments. This is the classical fallacy of arguing ad hominem...which essentially means that when someone can't make a reasonable argument, they just start calling people names. At that point, the forum thread has lost any value and is best ignored.

      I hope you post on other threads that don't get similarly corrupted.

    • RE: 1 Star Rating Troll

      I think this thread has run its course. I think we've all concluded that:

      • Some person or people rather indiscriminately puts/put one-star ratings on some torrents.
      • Those ratings do not seem to bear any correlation to the quality of said torrent.
      • Those ratings could be seen as insulting to the uploader, but regardless of the rater's intention, the efforts of uploaders are to be appreciated.
      • The overall star rating system is of questionable value.

    • RE: made a new torrent says it's seeding but it is not visible when searched

      @gaycatking The takedown process is somewhat mysterious, because the site owners/operators quite understandably prefer not to discuss it. My own view is that rather than being unhappy about torrents that go away, I prefer to be grateful for the torrents that remain.

    • RE: how can I search my own comments on torrent page?

      On the torrent search page, you'll see your username at the upper left. Click on that to get a drop-down menu. From that menu, click on "Details & Stats." On that page, towards the bottom, you'll see "Torrent comments" with a number to the right. Click on that number and it will bring you to a page with all your comments, 25 per page, overflowing onto additional pages.

      I think this will only show comments on torrents that are still active (posted) in the system, even if it's dead with no seeders. If you commented on a torrent that was taken down for one reason or another, I don't think that will show up. (I'm not absolutely sure about this, but I did a small random sample of my older comments, and every torrent showed up.)

      Happy hunting!

    • RE: Request: In Thrust We Trust

      @kingjamking I'd also suggest that you download the torrent and start it in your client even though there are no active seeders. If I get a reseed request and I see that there's someone trying to leech the stuff, I'm more inclined to jump in...assuming of, course, that I still have the content.

      @lololulu19 I took it from one of the preview pictures at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=0d48b5058b3ae6573f627acd8bc2072f7e65d4d57e9e146e . There's probably a way to make an animated .gif from bits of the video, although I don't know how that's done.

      I also can't think of any unique or exceptional way that the Church damages gay people.

      Really? REALLY? REALLY?

      Perhaps you need to think harder. If you want to continue this topic, move it to the Religion forum group...but I won't take part in that.

      I know you're not defending and sorry if my post or links made you believe otherwise.

      No worries--I probably shouldn't have clicked the "reply to you" option on that message. I appreciate your steady hand in these discussions and the quality of your posts. I don't think you could ever offend me, but please don't take that as a challenge. 😀

      @blaberg said in Pope Emeritus (aka former Pope) Benedict XVI dead @ 95

      you're saying he did some sort of special damage as Pope. I can't account for that, except as "Oh there goes the typical incomplete, parochial, gay-lib-tribal viewpoint again, example 1 million.

      Oh dear. This sounds like the kind of excrement that one finds in the "Politics and Debate" section. I said above that have respect for the RC church, probably more than most LGBT people. But the fact remains that the church continues to do great damage to LGBT people, and Bennie15 did nothing to stop that.

      @flozen I'm not at all defending Ratzinger as Benedict XVI. While he might have been a "theoretical theology liberal" in the 1960's, when he put on a white dress in 2005 he permitted and/or caused a great deal of damage. He certainly had lots of help within the hierarchy in doing this, but as with any bureaucracy, the buck stops at the top.

      The whole pedophilia mess is scandalously bungled at every level. (Side note: I have friends who were molested by clerics, and a high school classmate of mine became a priest-pedophile and is now living in Costa Rica or some some place outside of extradition.) One aspect of the social tragedy is that the RC church had/has no monopoly on child molestation--it might be the most public face of it, but some studies (and I don't have a handy reference) say that the most prevalent situations of molestation are schools and families.

      In a more perfect world, the RC church could have tried to come clean and say, essentially, "yes, we fucked up, and we're going to clean house. We also want to help the other institutions in society clean their houses." That's obviously not what happened, and the disaster continues. I don't know how it will get fixed. I will say that if I had a child who was being molested by a priest/teacher/scout-leader, etc., I would probably take some rather direct action.

      @blablarg18 said in Pope Emeritus (aka former Pope) Benedict XVI dead @ 95:

      https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/ratzinger-vatican-ii
      I don't know about this magazine, merely that the link turned up quickly in a search for "ratzinger theologian vatican 2".

      Thanks for the link. Commonweal is a reliable source; I remember reading/citing it several times as an undergrad.

      The article shows that Ratzinger was what would be considered "liberal" in the 1960's, but definitely changed his views. Those who do forensic psychology could have a field day in examining his motivation.

      He will probably be remembered in LGBT circles for his 1986 letter On the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons (https://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_con_cfaith_doc_19861001_homosexual-persons_en.html ). On a first read of that document, people saw hope when he said that homosexual orientation might not be a choice "in certain cases," and thus the person would not be culpable for engaging in homosexual activity. Unfortunately, he went on to insist that all such activity was "objectively disordered." It's a bit like saying "you were born a bird, and thus the desire to fly is not wrong, but if you do fly, it's a sin." (This bird metaphor is admittedly an oversimplification of the interplay between the very complex topics of free will and sin.)

      While I am not a member of the Catholic church, I probably have more respect for it than most LGBT people. I also respect LGBT people who have a long family and cultural rooting in Catholicism, and thus live a difficult life with one foot in each community. My first partner was among that group, and life was a challenge for him.

      Reality is a vast mosaic, none of us get to see it all.

      Very true! I sometimes use the metaphor of people standing in a circle around an elephant--no one person gets the full concept.

      I think it would help the discussion if there were some links or references, especially when an assertion like, "As a young theologian he [Ratzinger] was the key liberal voice at the Vatican." This is not the presumed narrative, so a link to something he wrote/published in that time frame would be very useful.
