@lololulu19 said in Regarding the Rules:

the torrent has a useless name such as "23575145.mp4" or "hot sex" or something else that would not find the video.

I sympathise with this. There are times when I see a screen grab of a a hot scene and wonder, "I think it's on here, but if so, where?" That's definitely not a request for a new upload, and we're fortunate to have some members with an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of all porn made since the Creation who are willing to share this.

(Off-topic comment about the Creation: Have you ever noticed in Michelangelo's fresco of the creation of humans in the Sistine Chapel, that Adam has a belly button? Um, being born of a human mother is not part of the traditional narrative.)

@amelia I find that the current version of Viddly, available at https://viddly.net/eng12/how-to-download-youtube-videos , works just fine on Windows 10/64. The user interface is clunkier--as we expect with any "refreshed look" from over-caffeinated web designers. The install file and program folder both pass a Norton Anti-Virus scan.

When doing the install, decline all the "options" it offers. To ensure that there's no new software added to your computer without your knowledge, go to the "Apps" panel in Windows, sort by date, and see if there's anything you don't recognise having been added today.

If you have a Mac, the steps are probably similar.

PS: At one point it asks for your email, but this is for advertising purposes only, not an activation link. I tend to use "[email protected]." He must be getting a lot of spam....

Given the fragility of external hard drives, and the volume of material that I want to store, I'd like to have two external hard drives that are exact mirrors of each other: I'd add (or delete) material from the "master" external drive, and every now and then (daily? weekly?) some software would see the change made to the master drive and implement it on the secondary drive.

I've done some web searching on this (I'm running 64 bit Windows 10), and it seems that the utilities out there have limited capability. I found one that sounded good, but the grammar on the web page was so bad that I didn't think I could decode it.

Of course, I'd like the stuff to be malware-free, and I don't mind paying for something if it works. I consider myself a "power user" but not an IT guru by any means.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

@Froze09-0 said in is gay-torrents.org any good comparred to this amazing site?:

do gay-torrents.org have more rare onlyfans contents?

I'm not a fan of Onlyfans material, so I can't give an answer about "rare" content. I can say that if I search both sites for the word "onlyfans" in the torrent title, I get 3671 hits on the other site, and 7376 on this one--which might suggest that there's more material here.

@lololulu19 said in Trans identification:

my best friend is being conned into giving up all his lifelong friends, not just me, and his job by this evil con-artist.

This is certainly a matter of concern, independent of gender identity issues. Perhaps you can make an affirmative effort to stay a friend with your friend in spite of the forces that seem to be taking him away from you--perhaps with invitations to drinks, lunch, dinner, sports events, or whatever common interests you might have.

Since 40% of trans people attempt suicide EVERY YEAR

This does not seem to be true. If we do an internet search on "suicide among trans people" and the first scholarly paper to come up is Indian J Psychol Med. 2016 Nov-Dec; 38(6): 505–509. (doi: 10.4103/0253-7176.194908) which states, in part,

• The suicide attempt rate among transgender persons ranges from 32% to 50%

This is over their lifetimes, not within a given year.

Please let us know how this turns out. It is always very sad to lose a "best friend," and I can unfortunately say that from personal experience.

@lololulu19 Does it matter to you?

Several years ago I had a magnet client on my computer that not only downloaded files accessible via magnet links, but also had a global search function that seemed to search lots of different sites and helped me find lots of downloadable material. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I know magnet links are not used as much now, and that uTorrent (and other clients) can accept a magnet link and download material. But I miss the search function--during my my first years on this site, that was my source for a lot of material that I uploaded here.

Any insights/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Great news! I put on 100 seed points as a reward for your trouble.

@remixafter-0 I tried the button myself out of curiosity, and got the following:

• Request failed - 0 PM's send!

I think this means that none of the 42 people who downloaded the torrent are currently members of gt.rent. Note that the torrent was originally uploaded nine years ago....and members here come and go. Perhaps a moderator and verify this.

I hope you're able to find this material elsewhere.

If you go to the torrent link ( https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=1e666513832373c93f627acd8bc2072f19a8007f194f7f0b ) and click "download," your torrent client should find the file you made the torrent from, check it, and then you'll be seeding it. Right now there seem to be nine users wanting to download it, so they'll be happy when you do this.

@kalayaan Thank you most sincerely from Canada! When I was a child I always liked having my birthday and Christmas separated by six months so I could get presents twice per year.

Merci très sincèrement du Canada! Quand j'étais enfant, j'ai toujours aimé que mon anniversaire de naissance et le Noël soient séparés de six mois afin de pouvoir recevoir des cadeaux uniformément espacés tout au long de l'année.

@lololulu19 This sounds quite odd, and far exceeds my technical knowledge of how the site works. Perhaps the help desk or a moderator could step in.

I think I know which studio you mean (I don't like to mention names in a public forum), and while I'm not a follower of their genre, I see very little of their material on the site. If gt.rent gets lots of takedown requests and doesn't want that material on the site, perhaps it should be added to the "forbidden" list, and/or a note to you asking not to upload it. (I note that I can find LOTS of their stuff on two other gay porn torrent sites I look at.)

I also note your comment about that studio going downhill. That seems very common, especially when studios change the kind of model or film they produce. For example, another studio starting with "S" was bought out about ten year ago, and their models changed from being collegiate twunks to 30-ish semi-hunks. That appeals to a different audience. And then there are those studios that have disappeared--I miss SEVP, perhaps because I come from that part of the world....

@rainboyuc said in Austin Wolf Arrested By FBI For Sending “Hundreds” Of Child Porn Videos, Faces 30 Years In Prison:

Our brains before 25 years ARE NOT fully developed.

I agree with what you're saying, and that many institutions take advantage of "adults" 18+ who can be easily manipulated into doing almost anything. The Hitler Youth comes to mind, and even today's militaries have similar features.

It would, though, be a wrenching transformation for societies to move "adulthood" to 25, even though there's good reason to do so. If you have some references to studies on how this might be done, I'd be interested to read them.

My initial concern in this thread, as a legal professional, was that I didn't want people to assume that illegal "kiddie porn" or "child porn" only referred to prepubescents.

As you say, sexual experiences among rather young people is not uncommon (my first was at 11--and so was the other guy), but those occasions are almost never prosecuted unless coercion was involved. In fact, very often prosecutors will invoke what is often called a "Romeo and Juliet rule" that dismiss a statutory rape charge when the age difference between the parties is less than 2-3 years, and each party gave de facto consent to the degree that they could.

@lololulu19 said in Austin Wolf Arrested By FBI For Sending “Hundreds” Of Child Porn Videos, Faces 30 Years In Prison:

I think the primary reason for the laws against underage sexuality is because they don't want girls getting pregnant

That's probably a large part of the reason--people in younger age groups are not fully aware of the consequences of their actions, and hence, in legal terms, can't give consent to having sex.

When in comes to underage porn, the problem is even greater: A 15-year-old enticed by financial payment to be nude or have sex in front of a camera will almost certainly not be aware of the damage this can do to him in later life--as they say, the internet is forever. There have been several "pornograhers," most infamously Sebastian Bleisch, who took shameful advantage of this. Surprisingly, Mr. Bleisch [in Germany] received a sentence of only two and half years. In Canada or the US, it would have been much longer.

@blablarg18 said in Austin Wolf Arrested By FBI For Sending “Hundreds” Of Child Porn Videos, Faces 30 Years In Prison:

17 is indeed a child.

We agree completely, when it comes to porn. Some people, though, when hearing the terms "child porn" or "kiddie porn" will think only of prepubescent persons. Such folk need to know that an adult-looking 17-year-old is still a minor and a having a nude photo of such carries a heavy sanction. This site has a well-written rule about this:

• If a torrent is posted from a studio known to use underage models or if the minimum age of a youthful appearing actor cannot be confirmed to be at least 18 years of age, we reserve the right to remove such content. If you are uploading torrents for videos or pictures for which the original producer or distributor is unknown, then the models must also look over 18 as well as be over 18 years old.

As you suggest, drawing age lines is tricky, and will never satisfy everyone. I recall a conversation with a colleague some year back who grew up in one of the US states where he said he could (legally) drive farm equipment around his farm at 14, drive a car on public roads at 16, vote and go into military service at 18, buy alcohol at 21, and rent a car at 25. One could argue for or against each of those lines, but they still need to be drawn.

@lololulu19 said in Austin Wolf Arrested By FBI For Sending “Hundreds” Of Child Porn Videos, Faces 30 Years In Prison:

There is a big difference between 7 and 17.

That is very true, although both are considered "under age" if photographed in a nude or sexual situation. I prefer to use the term "under age porn" rather than "child porn" or "kiddie porn," because a 17 year old is just as illegal as someone much younger.

The mention of your friend who had sex with an "almost 18" person raises the complicated point that in many jurisdictions, the age of consent for sex can be lower than the age defining under age porn: In Canada, part of the US, and most of Europe, the age of consent is 16. (In Liechtenstein, it's 14!) Nevertheless, the age limit for porn is almost always 18. This means that one could have sex in Canada with a guy who's 16, but they couldn't take or possess a nude photograph of him.

@lololulu19 I don't know why you can't upload, but it's a shame. It sounds like you would be able to add a lot of new material to the site.

@ianfontinell-0 said in Torrent File Sizes:

I don't mind huge torrents as long as they come with contact sheets for everything.

I totally agree, and it's so easy to make contact sheets with the many free batch thumbnail generators available. Whenever I have a torrent with multiple video files, I always do this. I'm not proposing that the site the make this a rule, but I consider it a "best practice." I salute all uploaders (likely yourself among them) who do this.

I do think that downloaders should use caution in downloading all or some files from very large torrents if there's a possibility that the torrent will be deleted before one is finished downloading. This is low risk if all the contents are from individual studios that don't make DMCA complaints, but if it's a mixed bag of files from different studios, containing a file from a studio that is very DMCA-aggressive, there is the risk that the entire torrent will go away before downloading is complete...and one could be left with a lot of unusable material charged against their ratio calculation.

@Titom I'm in general agreement with what you're saying. I do think, though, that it's important to distinguish between file size and torrent size:

I don't think there's any need for a single file to be larger than 30 GB. I often transfer files to a thumb drive to watch on my large screen television, and the most common format for these drives (called FAT32) won't permit files larger than 4 GB. I have software that can break a file into sequential bits, but breaking something into ten pieces is tedious.

As for a torrent containing a large number of video files, such as a sloppy collection called "My Favourite Bareback Films" that is 100 GB, I think it's risky for a downloader to select all of the files, only to get half-way through and have the torrent deleted from the system due to a DMCA request or perhaps just one clip be suspect of having an under-18 model. It would be prudent for downloaders to select only a few of the files on offer, and then when those are complete select a few more. This can help prevent the problem of having downloaded a lot of useless partial files.

Thank you for raising this interesting topic.
