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

To borrow a line from The King and I, Is a puzzlement.

I got a notice yesterday that a torrent I posted was taken down...but I built that torrent by taking three "parts" of a story that were downloaded through three separate torrents, and then merging them into a single file as it was much better to view that way. (I gave credit to the three other torrents.)

Those other three torrents are still live on the system, which is a good thing. But it's very strange.

@Alhomonym Given "homonym" in your screen name, I couldn't resist.

@Alhomonym Well, cum

@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.

@pupkinvasya Thanks very much for decoding this!

Speaking of Netflix, I recently finished season 2 of "Young Royals." It was quite good.

If you are new to this franchise, I recommend starting with season 1.

I don't think it's a spoiler to say that the last episode of season 2 ended with some mild ambiguity that could leave open the door to a season 3. I hope that such is eventually produced.

@pupkinvasya Thank you very much for the tip. <I did not plan for a double-entendre on "tip," but I'll take credit for it anyway.>

I did a search for "Elite" on my PC, and got quite a few hits:

All of these (save for the bottom center "Wednesday") seem to be part of the overall Elite series, as they have the same branding logo. Are these bits from various seasons, or independent short stories? The one at the left called "Samuel Omar" has a pleasant image

@pupkinvasya said in What series are you currently watching?:

Elite S05E04

I've seen it suggested for me on Netflix. Would I need to watch seasons 1-4 in order to make sense of season 5?

@raphjd said in [Model Of The Week]:

I think too many "models" over groom.

It's especially bad when the guy has shaved (or groomed) quite recently with a bad blade or trimmer, and there are lots of little red "razor burn" bumps

Stephane Rousseau

He seems quite pleasant, although I wish he hadn't shaved himself downstairs. Perhaps he'll let things grow out if he stays with that organisation.

not indexing the website on Google

It does seem odd to me that pages are accessible "from the outside." I can only presume that the site owner(s) have reasons for this...and also that these are not topics that can get an official answer from them.

As in any good sex, it's important to communicate beforehand. If a sucker doesn't want cum in his mouth, he should say so. Also, it's polite--and hot--for the guy getting sucked to give a five second warning like, "I'm going to cum." That gives the sucker the option of in the mouth or a facial.

Porn, of course, is different. Directors want to see the cum shot. Somebody warping in from another planet would assume that guys always pull out of asses and mouths before squirting. This is not true.

@serenity said in A question about DMCA takedowns:

what videos that are okay to upload.

I think it's "okay" to upload anything that satisfies the site's rules (https://www.gaytor.rent/rules.php#102) and isn't banned (https://www.gaytor.rent/notallowed.php), although it might go away very quickly.

That said, it's a lot of work for moderators to get a takedown request, verify it, and then delete the torrent. I would understand if they were to say, "Don't upload stuff from <some studio>.com, because it creates a hassle for us." Thus far, though, they haven't done that.

@krad3434 said in Vanishing torrents ...:

excessive takedowns with ... inconsistent reporting.

Inconsistent reporting is the key. I think the site takes down all and only those torrents that are claimed by copyright owners. There's at least one torrent on this site from a studio that is very diligent about asking for takedowns, but the studio hasn't found that torrent because the studio name isn't mentioned anywhere in the title, description, or file names. (No, I'm not going to identify the torrent here.) If there's no takedown request on that torrent, it will very likely stay posted.

When size matters, this could be the answer. But, I always get two drives in case one fails...and disk drives do fail.

the 1-star rating ogre

That little brat doesn't deserve attention. When I'm stumbling through the torrent listings and I see one with a single rating and it's one star, I'll sometimes give it a five star rating just for fun...and bingo! The average rating is now three stars.

There are indeed some rather carelessly posted torrents...things titled "Hot guys have sex" with no pictures and a file name like skrjgsghs.mp4. That might deserve one star, but I think most people put some degree of care into their torrents (some obviously more than others) and it's disrespectful to slap one star on that. I especially appreciate members whose English is rather weak, but they still make the effort to post on here.

In a world where people shoot at us in bars or, in some countries, lock us in jail, we can at least be nice to each other online.

@MrMazda said in Nothing Downloads! HELP!:

downgrade uTorrent to a previous version.

That's what I did, and it now works fine. Version 3.6 added the btorrent.xyz tracker to every active torrent I had, including those from several other torrent sites.

Now that I'm back to using 3.5.5, that tracker still shows up on torrents that were active under 3.6, but it's tagged as "invalid URL." This doesn't seem to cause any problems, but if I see that on a given torrent, I remove it just as a precaution.

I have noticed in the last few days that I'm hardly uploading anything to this site, although just now I snatched a freeleech torrent as a test, and it downloaded fine and is uploading at a low but measurable rate. Maybe the stuff I have just isn't wanted...which is odd, because several guys have said that they like my seed, so to speak

@john32123666 Requests for a re-seed are permitted if one uses the "Request Re-Seed" button on the torrent page:

Those requests, and requests for a new upload, aren't permitted in the Forum.
