    • RE: Question about star ratings.

      @Richiroma I think the star rating on the torrent list is the average of the votes to date, even if there aren't three of them. It's odd that the search page rating is done differently from what's on an individual torrent page, but it's likely a "feature" of the software that would be painful to change--and unnecessary.

      I say "unnecessary" because I don't think the ratings are used consistently by members: Some people give five stars as a way of saying "thank you," and there's at least one troll who puts one star on torrents that he doesn't like...which seems disrespectful to the uploader. (When I see one of those, I do a five star rating so it averages to three.)

      Rather than using rating stars to assess a torrent, we can look at how many people said "thank you" on the torrent page and/or how many bonus points were awarded. That said, we all have different tastes. For example, I'm not at all interested in seeing two completely shaven twinks fucking, but there's still an audience for that and it could get lots of applause from people who like that content.

      Sorry for the long essay. Maybe I had too much coffee this morning...☕

      @raphd: Perhaps we can create a new board called "Transphobia" (perhaps a subset of "Politics and Debate?" for this kind of discussion.

    • "No Other Land" wins Oscar for best documentary

      No Other Land was made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four activists in what they describe as an act of resistance on the path to justice during the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. It was featured at many film festivals around the world, including several in Canada, but no distributor down in the US wanted to pick it up.

      I have a good 1080i copy of it. It doesn't qualify as having a "gay theme" so I'm hesitant to upload it to this site, but I think it's worth watching. The file is about 2 GB and I can post a Dropbox link if people are interested.

      It's a .mkv file with separate .srt files for English and Portuguese dialog.

    • RE: Horrifying fact about transGENDER people

      @blablarg18 Once again we see the childish dynamic of, "If you can't discuss something rationally, call the other person names."

      As for "comments of value," in this thread there are plenty from PedrocaWest...but replies to them are just old, worn-out copy/pastes from the Anti-Trans Playbook.

      Here's an exercise for the reader: Do a search on "you" on this page in your browser. See how many times it shows up in the anti-trans replies? That's clear evidence that, when confronted with facts, the anti-transists simply start calling names. That makes a mockery of the forum--which should be about ideas, not personalities.

    • RE: Help!

      If you look under "trackers," it probably says "unregistered torrent." This means that it's no longer in the system. Most likely it's been removed by staff, perhaps in response to a DMCA request, or maybe some other reason. In any event, it's dead. If you're still connected to another user you'll be able to exchange data for a while, but the tracker won't connect you to (new) other users.

    • RE: What kept you from completing suicide?

      @andergarcia said in What kept you from completing suicide?:

      @bc22

      Had never thought of completing suicide... If I ever thought of that, I would just need to think of all the great people I have around me (my boyfriend, my parents, my brother, my closest friends...).

      I had a boyfriend some years back who committed suicide. The wreckage that leaves among family and friends is overwhelming. I've had some dark times now and then, but I could never have my legacy be that kind of destruction.

      Suicide is not a grand Shakespearean "to be or not to be" existential decision. It's about ending one's pain. But it doesn't solve anything--it's surrendering to the pain and darkness because one cannot see any alternatives.

      I am not passing negative judgment on those who attempt/complete suicide--I still love my lost boyfriend very much. It is, though, tragic that he, and many others, did not see an alternative to resolving their pain.

    • RE: How do I watch the videos?

      @Xezak Welcome! I hope you enjoy being part of the site.

      There are probably some specific help pages/comment threads that can answer your question in detail, and I'm sure another Gentle User will step in here and point you there.

      For now, let's look at some very general concepts: None of the thousands (millions?) of videos or images featured on the torrent pages are stored by the gaytor.rent website. Instead, individual users (like me, and now you) have some of them on their computers. Think of this website as a "matchmaker," connecting your computer to other computers so files can be shared back and forth between users.

      The small "torrent file" you've downloaded from this site isn't a video. It's sort of like a passport that lets your computer connect to the other users so that you can download video material directly from them, and then the video (a much larger file) will show up on your computer.

      This requires having a software application running on your computer (a "torrent client") that does the actual connecting-to-others and sharing files. I'm afraid that I don't know anything about iPads, but other users here do and they can probably point you to a web page that has the directions you need. The setup can be tricky, but if you get stuck, don't be afraid to ask questions in the forum. All of us had to learn this stuff when we got started.

      Good luck, and again, welcome!

    • RE: Comment meltdown

      I am confused, which is nothing new. I don't understand the original comment, with references to California, sobriety, and multiple accounts.

      Perhaps you meant to make this a comment on a specific torrent? There's a box at the bottom of each torrent page for that.

    • RE: covid vaxx don't stop covid, says NY Supreme Court

      @cinemacapman said in covid vaxx don't stop covid, says NY Supreme Court:

      no vaccine whether it's COVID or flu, etc., prevents you from catching it or getting sick. No vaccine actually kills a virus. It prevents you from becoming seriously ill, hospitilization, or dying. Your body's immune system eventually wears down the virus. You actually just naturally heal yourself. They've been saying this for a long time, and people still are stubborn about accepting what the COVID vaccine actually does. Yes, you can still catch and transmit the virus. The vaccine simply protects you and your health.

      This is the medical fact, and that's what belongs in a Health and Fitness forum thread.

      If you want to call people liars, spread conspiracy theories, or espouse "alternative facts," there's another forum board for doing that.

    • RE: Dead Torrent

      @ikpooo When the torrent file is downloaded and running in your client (such as uTorrent or whatever you use), you can select some or all of the files that you want to download--just make sure it's in your torrent list, and it will probably say something like "connecting to peers" and show zero seeders.

      It will not affect your ratio until someone responds to your reseed request. Once they do, the system will record how much you've downloaded from them. You won't get any upload credit, though, because those people who connected already have the files and it's unlikely that other people will hook up to an old torrent.

      Downloading the torrent file and loading in your client will count against your limit for how many torrents you can download in a given day, as well as how many torrents you can have downloading at a time. (It counts as "downloading" even if there's nobody sending you data.) You can find the limits that apply to your account by going to https://www.gaytor.rent/rationator.php

      Don't be discouraged: People do sometimes respond to reseed requests. If you're not having luck, though, I recommend against sending additional requests. If somebody got a request once and didn't respond, getting another one likely won't work.

      Good luck!

    • RE: Frequent "lost connection"

      This connection problem absolutely must be fixed. I'm sure admins notice that the traffic on the forum has gone way down with the new system, both because of the connection issues and the clumsiness of the interface.

      Once connection issues are resolved, I suggest two more fixes:

      1. Restore the "mouse over" functionality that lets one read the initial post when mousing over a title.
      2. Restore the "frozen pane" at the top of the forum screen so one can go immediately back to the torrent section/search features rather than clicking once to get to the torrents, and then again to select a search option.

      Good luck as you work on these issues.

      Ms. Omooba had to be living under a rock if she wanted to be an actress and a homophobe at the same time. There are LOTS of LGBT people in cinema, theatre, music, and dance. Some of them might have been her friends...

    • RE: It's just too bad to stay as it is

      @ianfontinell said in It's just too bad to stay as it is:

      Browsing the forum as it is at the moment is just... Not worth it. It's too annoying. Each 30 seconds connection is lost, then you're randomly kicked out and have to login again but each time this happen there's an unnecessary captcha to make things even more annoying.

      I really want to browse the forum, there's lots of interesting stuff but I guess people won't have this bs for much longer. Just close it already until it's fixed or at least revert it back to the old one. If it's so hard to fix make another one, I'm sure there are lots of people here who would gladly help with that, myself included.

      I sadly agree. The forum is pretty much useless now. It's a real shame, because it used to be that people posted lots of thoughtful comments--some gay-related, other household hints, etc.

      It's especially tragic given that occasionally there would be a post from someone, likely young, experiencing serious depression and seeking support, or at least conversation, from people in the forum. This new forum software has likely destroyed that mechanism.

      Even if things got fixed, I think enough people have been alienated from the forum that it will probably never return to its previous value.
