@Randevouz90 Welcome! And well-cum.

@raphjd said in Co-founder of Christian TV network that railed against vaccines dies of Covid-19:

@eobox91103

AH, the "whataboutism" nazi.

Many people on here notice that your responses to other people are almost always an ad hominem, attacking the person rather than addressing issues. While this might give you some childish satisfaction, it shows the reader that you have surrendered on the topic and are left with nothing else than hurling your feces at people. This is not worthwhile discussion

If you are going to slag off a person for not getting a vaccine and then repeat boosters and not wear masks, you have to accept it when people point out that your side dies too. .

I have no idea what this incoherent rambling means. I do know that it's very likely nonsense.

If you like uTorrent (as I do), you don't want to use version 3.6. Version 3.5.5 is stable (I use it), and you can get a download of it at https://www.filesoul.com/software/uTorrent/3-5-5-45271-for-PC-Windows/download/ . Then, make sure you got to Options -> Preferences -> General and un-tick the box that says, "Automatically install updates:"

Do NOT try to get this version from a link on domain uptodown.com. Those links have been corrupted and will install version 3.6, which is a disaster.

You can also follow the suggestions of others on there who advocate version 2.2.1. That also works...but again, make sure you untick the auto-upgrade box.

Good luck with your project, and let us know how it turns out!

@eobox91103 Would you give me a hand getting back up?

Getting you up sounds fun...

didn't use the site for months and my download rights are now stripped! just like me no on the bed

I suggest contacting the help desk at https://www.gaytor.rent/helpdesk.php

Macron isn't being helpful...this was likely a moment of rage that he will soon regret.

His actual comment was, "Quand ma liberté vient menacer celle des autres, je deviens un irresponsable. Un irresponsable n’est plus un citoyen" (When my liberty becomes a menace to others, I become irresponsible. An irresponsible [person] is no longer a citizen.) His statement is incorrect under French law.

He could have expressed his thought by saying that "the irresponsible are not acting like good citizens," but even that would have been inflammatory. It might even have been irresponsible, which would then backfire on him. (Le karma, c'est une chienne.)

One doesn't persuade people by publicly insulting or shaming them. His wife was a school teacher, and would know this quite well. I think the two of them will have a rather spirited conversation.

Freeleech is good for helping new and/or low ratio seeders recover ratio and get back into the mainline. I don't think making a torrent (mine or someone else's) freeleech has a net benefit to my seedpoints or upload count, but I have a lot of both, and sometimes I'll spend to points to freeleech an older torrent--mine or someone else's--to give it new life. There's some older stuff on here (10+ years) that will soon go to Torrent Heaven w/o being freeleeched that I think new users would find interesting.

Just my opinion, of course.

@ianfontinell I wouldn't presume to speak for our brother Al, but until then, here's a famous American dick:

@Fennekin said in Site changes 7 March 2022:

... So by removing that [request] section, you've essentially killed the forum.

@kalayaan said in Site changes 7 March 2022:

@Fennekin "Killed the forum" is a little bit stretched, don't you think?

Forum death started several months ago with the new software, making things clumsier, deleting topics, etc. Anyone keeping metrics would have seen a sharp drop in participation.

There are lots of forum topics that you can go to.

Yes, but fewer now than before the redesign...or if they're still live, it's very hard to find them. Many disciplines follow the maxim "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Software--and especially web--designers seem to take an opposite approach: Once they get something working, they redesign it.

@raphjd said in Dems who once decried "loose canon" Trump, now defending Biden "going off script":

Please try again.

Will do...although this will require reading, and confronting facts, which you may find distressing:

Here's a partial transcript of your Dear Leader's comments about the "Unite the Right" march in Charlottesville:

Reporter: (Inaudible) "… both sides, sir. You said there was hatred, there was violence on both sides. Are the --"

Trump: "Yes, I think there’s blame on both sides. If you look at both sides -- I think there’s blame on both sides. And I have no doubt about it, and you don’t have any doubt about it either. And if you reported it accurately, you would say."

Reporter: "The neo-Nazis started this. They showed up in Charlottesville to protest --"

Trump: "Excuse me, excuse me. They didn’t put themselves -- and you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name." [emphasis added]

(Trump frequently praised Robert E. Lee as a "very fine general," even though he commanded an army that fought against the United States.)

@lololulu19 said in Site duplicate rules as applied to AI enhancement:

I have mentioned dozens of times..

Yes, you certainly have. I'm curious why. Nothing's going to change.

@raphjd My bad. I thought we could have a rational, fact-based discussion...but that can be threatening to a simplistic world view.

@frostycab said in Warning:

No warning that all your uploads were getting DMCA'd?

I've had a few torrents taken down for DMCA reasons, but I always get a polite note from the mods saying what's happened and that my identify is safe. After a while, I realised what studios were on this warpath, and I've avoided uploading from them since. I do grab their material if someone else posts it

@raphjd said in Dems who once decried "loose canon" Trump, now defending Biden "going off script":

@eobox91103

Oh, I thought you were referring to Biden since he's made a career out of lying for the last 50 years.

Your BDS seems to be clouding your ability to read. Perhaps you can check with the local school authorities to see if they have remedial classes for you.

@frostycab said in DMCA strikes and the 90-day suspension:

It's right below the link for the helpdesk in the support dropdown

Thanks; I see it now, but what an odd place to put it. I would have simply appended it to the "Rules" page. New users might not know what "DMCA" means, and could easily miss this stuff.

A good maxim for web content is "Don't just post something so that users can find it; post it so that users can't miss it."

@raphjd said in Dems who once decried "loose cannon" Trump, now defending Biden "going off script":

You're talking about Biden, right?

Re-read the sentence carefully, although I know that reading comprehension can be challenging:

... on the rare occasions that Putin's not behind layers of handlers, he can call upon his decades of experience as a professional liar.

"he" and "his" refer to Putin. That should be clear from the grammatical construction (my apologies for using multi-syllabic words).

We know that you love Putin because he is adored by the Dear Leader. Perhaps, though, you feel some conflict when you see what Vlad is doing? Or perhaps not. That would require thought.

@tnar (and all others): If you click on a user's name, it will bring up their profile page. One can then click on the three vertical dots, and select "Ignore User," which I have done for a few users (including one beginning with "L") so that I don't have to read anything she/he/it posts. It's always the same thing, and I don't need to read it again.

As a related convenient feature of the forums, one can also block specific forum categories, which I have also done.

@raphjd said in Spies Who Lie for the DNC:

Your response in the other thread shows you got butt hurt, because I showed that your beloved Dear Uncle has made a career of being a liar for the last 50 years.

I'm not hurt at all. You embarrassed yourself by making that assertion without any evidence at all--as is your usual style.

If you don't like it, you know where the door is.

You are the one who needs to find the door.

@frostycab said in Do we get seed points by posting in this forum?:

Just thought I'd bump this as it's been well over a year now and the information on seed points still hasn't been updated.

A rule cleanup would seem to be in order. There's also rule 9.2, which states,

• The description [page of a torrent] must contain a list of all video files or titles including, by at least copy/paste the torrent’s file list.

Almost nobody does this, and it would be very clumsy for posts from fan sites with 100+ files.

@raphjd said in Spies Who Lie for the DNC:

You seem angry because I pointed out that Dear Uncle Biden has made a career out of lying for the last 50 years when you wanted to make it about Putin and Trump.

Oh little boy, I am not the least bit angry. I'm disappointed, though, that this thread, like so many others, has been reduced to idiocy by your refusal to read, reason, or provide supporting fact for your assertions. Perhaps you could leave these threads alone and start your own website: the domain name "IisAnIdiot.com" is available.

@gabisev Waiting is about the best we can do. If nothing happens in a week or so, you might try it again, and then abandon the cause. Users who have (or have deleted) the material don't want a "please re-seed" note every hour for a month. (OK, that's a little bit of an exaggeration.)

Also, I think you meant to say "zero seeders for a long time." It's seeders who have the material, and you'd like there to be several of them so you can get the material. (This has something to to with "swarms" that I don't fully understand, but that can be the topic of another thread.)
