@krad3434 One way to help a ratio is to download a new torrent and then select only a few (maybe 10% by volume) of the files to actually be downloaded to your computer. (This is easy to do with uTorrent by unticking boxes; it's probably similar with other clients.)

This way you'll be among the first to get that material, and then be a "source" for other downloaders who are likely trying to grab all the files. It also increases the probability that you'll be left with something playable if the torrent is taken down quickly.

The only disadvantage to this strategy is that a torrent for which you haven't downloaded all the files will still take up one of your download slots, even if you have all the stuff that you selected. After the initial surge of people downloading from that torrent, you might want to delete it if you have a small number of allowable slots.

I can see that torrent when I search for it.

I've noticed that when I upload a new torrent, it takes one or two tracker update cycles (about 30 minutes each) for everything to sort out. I'm often a bit puzzled or anxious before things settle, but if I give it time, it's fine.

It looks like almost 30 people have downloaded that material. Not everyone will officially say thank you, but you can be confident that they are happy to have the files.

@eobox91103 What's your body count then, if you've made up for it?
Personally I feel like mine is kind of low, I'm 28 and my body count is about 50...but almost all of that sex was compressed into a year. Can't wait to get back to that lifestyle...

When I was 28, my count was less than ten...due to both a late start and needing to study 26 hours/day in graduate school. When I hit 30 I thought I was "over the hill," but it was quite the opposite: I had more time for the gym, as well as my own place for "entertaining." I probably went ten years with one encounter per week. Do the math on that, and it's in the middle three digits.

I'm neither proud nor ashamed of that--it's just something that happened. I had a "visiting associate" post in a city with a very gay neighbourhood, and it wasn't unusual to bring a guy home that I met at the gym so we could finish what we started in the showers.

I can understand a feeling that one might have "lost time by coming out late," as I very much felt that way myself. (I do some volunteer work with a youth organisation, and there are kids coming out at 14--or earlier--these days.) But everyone is on their own timetable, and at the risk of sounding like a trite greeting card, everyone's schedule is exactly right for them. The current pandemic has put a damper on things, but I prefer to be cautious. I'm skeptical if some guy says that his dick is long enough that we could fuck even while distanced by two meters.

Is there any desire to fix the ongoing login/unavailable/error issues with the new forum software?

If not, rolling back to the previous version would be an improvement.

@tnar Thanks for that link. I know the scene numbering continued after the "Original" Sean Cody sold the franchise to MindGeek in 2015, and the models got 10-15 years older. I don't know what number that was at...but the new series doesn't interest me as much as the classics.

pbc.xxx is indeed a wonderful site. One can look up many models and find out more about them, including the Fakebook pages. It seems that many of the retired Czech models have BMW's, which is an interesting correlation.

@frostycab said in Idea to greatly eliminate incomplete uploads / seeding problems - FEEDBACK PLEASE!:

torrent sites are only able to operate based on the fact that they don't host any copyrighted material.

This is absolutely on target.

Case closed.

@lololulu19 said in Banned from uploading for 90 days.:

Then there is the issue of gay porn not covered by any copyright protection, because you cannot copyright something that is obscene, and shoving one's erect penis into a rectum is considered obscene.

Will you PLEASE stop flogging this dead horse? It died a long time ago, and I think I speak for many on hear that we're tired of hearing this nonsense.

@vortensen said in Can a bottom rape a top?:

Hi, I wonder if a power bottom can overwhelm a top resulting in a so-called bottom raping the top?

In theory, yes: Forcible* rape only requires that one of the parties involved does not consent to the act. The most likely scenario here would be if the top is impaired by alcohol or other drugs and is not capable of giving consent, but still has a dick hard enough to penetrate.

Also, I could envision two completely sober people,** with the top lying on his back and his cock completely hard (maybe right after blow job), and the bottom straddling him. If the bottom's hole is loose and lubed, s/he could quickly sit down on the top's cock without there having been any discussion/consent/expression of desire on the top's part. From a legal perspective this would be a difficult case to make, but it would still count as rape if the top didn't agree to have this happen.

*The comments above about "forcible" rape assume that both parties are at/above the local age of consent (and that age varies by country, and even by province/state in Canada/the US). If the top is below the age of consent, and the bottom is above the age of consent, then any intercourse would be considered statutory rape of the top by the bottom.

**This discussion also applies to a situation where the "bottom" is a female and takes the top's cock into her vagina or ass.

There's probably some rape-fantasy porn showing a situation like this, although I can't recall having seen any.

@tenty said in where are the straight dudes:

there is a studio called "Broke Straight Boys". I believe the guys were gay for pay and used to be quite believable that they were straight whilst being paid to have sex with another guy.

It seems that many of the models on the Broke Straight Boys website are indeed straight, although certainly not all of them. Several are listed at https://pbc.xxx/wiki/Category:Broke_Straight_Boys_models , and many of the pages for the models have a link to the the guy's "real life" Facebook page. They run the gamut: "Adam Baer's" FB page shows him as a gun-loving dumb redneck, suggesting that he's really straight, even though he sucks and/or gets fucked in all of his BSB scenes. Others, such as "Richie West," will definitely trigger one's gaydar. This should not be surprising--putting two genuinely straight models together for a first-time male-male encounter would make for a clumsy (and likely amusing) scene.

But let's remember that porn is fantasy. We watch it because we like seeing two bodies interact with each other. We don't have--or need--knowledge of a model's inner psychology.

@eobox91103 said in Besides Torrent Sites, What Other Sites Do You Visit?:

I'm not sure about gt.rent forum practices in mentioning other website names, so I'll hold off giving the URL here in a public space....but feel free to PM me if your interested.

With thanks to @raphjd: The site that I used to visit was https://www.gayboystube.com/. I think it's gone downhill recently--most of the content is home-made "wank in the mirror" stuff, and some horrible quality vintage clips. But, your mileage may vary so you might want to check it out. A few times I've found something good enough there that after some editing and processing, I've uploaded it here. It's very easy to download clips from there using the Firefox extension "Flash and Video Download."

@Rotron said in Vanishing torrents ...:

Back out?

I can't speak for brother @blablarg18 , but I think that with nearly 200 posts in this thread, we've beaten this to death. Unless we can profile and defeat an Evil Troll who is causing problems, we will probably just have to accept torrents going up, and torrents coming down. Keeping them up will take more than Viagra.

@frostycab If it's deleted for cause, and then re-uploaded by the same person, I would think their upload privileges would be suspended.

Perhaps it could be put in a new "comedy" category: The guy seems to be sitting on a bidet, which is an unusual posturing. Come to think of it, I don't recall seeing bidets in other films or clips on here, despite many of them originating in Europe.

@bi4smooth said in Is it just me? WHO pulls out of a fine ass to cum on a dude's face?:

I don't get it... SO MUCH porn these days features this "ending"...

2 hot guys fucking - sometimes even flip-flopping - and at the last minute... when the top is about to cum... he pulls out, quickly re-positions himself, and shoots his load on the other guy's face... not even in his mouth, just "across his face"...

Porn directors like to show cum shots on screen, presumably because they believe that's what the audience wants. I agree that's it's unrealistic--in real life fucking or sucking, most guys (giving or receiving) want an internal cum shot.

Another "unrealistic" part of porn is that the actors never communicate what they want--the director is telling them what to do. The best sex happens when guys say what they like--and don't like--as they're doing it.

@lmsuon said in where are the straight dudes:

Fantasy is exactly right. But it's hotter to know if they are straight. Another kind of fantasy.

I can resonate with some of that fantasy: When I was in high school, and convinced that I was the only guy who had "those feelings," I had major crushes on some classmates, who I presumed were straight. Only later did I find out that some of them were quite gay.

In real life, though, I've had "friendship with benefits" with a couple of guys who were essentially straight, but enjoyed the physical sensation of sex with another guy. (Details posted in another thread on here.) It was a novelty, but not really satisfying.

@Rotron said in My uploads keep getting taken down:

Did he get banned for uploading another DMCA'd title? Will that get you banned in the forum too?

(1) One data point: I've had several torrents taken down for copyright reasons, sometimes a couple of them in a single month, and I'm still here.

(2) I could understand that somebody could be banned if they keep reuploading something that gets taken down.

(3) I can understand the site needing to have a rule saying, "Please don't share copyrighted material."

(4) I can very much understand the site not wanting so say, "we have rule (3) above, but we don't enforce it."

M. courbinjc,

There are some studios that seem to always ask this site that their torrents be removed from the site because of DMCA copyright violations. (La personne au vagin brûlé (et qui sent très mauvais) affirme souvent que la pornographie ne peut pas être protégée par le droit d'auteur car elle est obscène et n'est donc pas soumise au droit d'auteur. Ce n’est tout simplement pas vrai.)

There is no rule about uploading material from these studios, but it is work for the moderators to receive these complaints and then act on them. I think it would be better for this site to make a rule against uploading material from these studios. (Since this forum is public, I will not mention the studios' names. The two I know of are European, one starting with "E" and the other with "S." There might be others.)

Meilleurs vœux du Canada!

Attention : vous souhaiterez peut-être mettre un masque à gaz : la personne avec une chatte malodorante pourrait ajouter quelque chose à ce fil.

We're probably all familiar with the difference between "real inches" and "online inches," the latter being inflated (!) A little exaggeration in a hookup ad is to be expected, but there are limits to credibility.

I found the following graphic interesting: A US banknote is 6 1/8 inches (15.5 cm) long, which is a longer than the "average" erect penis size of 5.5" (14 cm) that most studies report:

I think most of us would consider a "dollar size" penis to be adequate...but nobody's going to proudly advertise that.

What about larger? Standard letter-size paper in Canada and the US is 8.5"x11" (216 x 279 mm); standard A4 paper in Europe is 210 x 297 mm (8.3" x 11.7"). How many "nine inch" porn models (or hookups) are longer than the width of standard business paper?

As much as I like numbers, perhaps we should leave them out of size discussions. Some adjectives like "good," "large," or "huge" can be helpful, but I think anyone advertising something larger than average needs to show a photograph. We all know "big" when we see it; we don't need to put a number on it.

Your post suggests otherwise.
