@Pawpcorn:

If you REALLY want to take a competitive approach to try and improve your ratio, you'd constantly REFRESH the Torrent Search function, and find only BRAND NEW torrents that have JUST BEEN UPLOADED, that you think will become popular torrents… and download only THOSE torrents in the first minutes of being offered here.

Also, I've found that if there's a very new torrent containing many files, and I download just a few of them, my upload ratio on that torrent will be very large.  I was in "ratio basement" a while back after a disk crash, and this saved me.

My first (long-term) partner didn't like porn at all–he said it was "boring" and "useless."  But I was much less experienced than he was, and watched porn (on my own) as an instructional tool.  I know that what I learned from these "training films" improved our sex life and our relationship.

@Kekkaishi:

Over the years I've used many brands of nose trimmers.
They all have been somewhat not good, even when you buy a familiar brand….
It takes at least 7-10 minutes per nostril to achieve somewhat good result.
and the battery is trash in every one I had.

Can you recommend a really good "premium" nose trimmer in both being able to trim hair and battery?
I am actually willing to pay a high price!

I have a "Panasonic ER-GN30" that I got at a discount store, probably not more that $10-$15 US.  It takes at most 30 seconds/side; I use it a couple of times per week and replace the battery every 3-4 months.  It also works well on my ears.

Of course, everyone's hair is different, so…your mileage may vary, products may have settled in shipment, don't use if allergic to any ingredients, keep out of reach of children, etc.

There are a lot of video editing programs that can convert a DVD from one resolution to another–in this case, probably 480i to 720p.  But all that does is average and smear the pixels to the higher pixel count, but it doesn't add any clarity to the image.  Depending on the quality of the software, it might even degrade it.

I have two HD televisions, as well as the 4K computer monitor I'm staring at right now.  In my experience, televisions and monitors with fixed resolution provide a higher quality picture when they're fed DVD video at its native resolution and do the upconverting themselves.

I wouldn't do it on camera.

Several years ago I met a porn actor (I wouldn't call him a "star" since he only did a few films) and we sort-of-dated for a couple of months.  He enjoyed having sex with me as a natural, human event, rather than stopping and starting at a director's whim, and doing it under hot lights with lots of film crew around.

@blackwing:

Do they still make lambskin condoms?

Yes, but they're pretty much useless for male-male sex.

While the natural skin (actually intestinal lining) condoms are more sensitive than latex condoms, they are porous. The pores in them are small enough to block passage of sperm cells and thus to prevent pregnancy, nut they're large enough to pass HIV and hepatitis B virus.  The reason condoms are used in male-male sex is to prevent transmission of sexually transmitted infections–and since lambskin condoms are not effective at that, they're pointless.

Some guys have a condom fetish, such as filling up condoms with cum or whatever.  A lambskin condom could be used for that, although again they are porous and would eventually leak.  But the bottom (!) line is that they shouldn't be used if one is concerned about preventing infection.

@xxxygc:

I'm getting a lot of stalled torrents when I start downloading them. I'm using qbittorrent v4.1.2, any suggestions on how to fix this would be great. Thanks

I'm not exactly sure how you define "stalled," but I find that many torrents seem to take some time to start downloading.  I think it's a "feature" of the system, not of users, because sometimes there can be a dozen or more download-peers, like me, all "connected" but still at 0.0%.  Things eventually get moving after a few minutes, or sometimes as much as a half hour.  I can only recall one time when everyone seemed stalled out for days (and all at 0.0%), and I deleted the torrent and moved on.

So, bottom line is I don't think you need to/can tweak anything with your system…just be patient and the stuff will come.

@lololulu19:

That pissed me off.  It seems to me that if someone else adds pictures to an existing post, they should be appended to the torrent.. not replace the picture I associated with it.

A "feature" of the system is that newly uploaded pictures (often garbage) go the the front of the list–they should go to the end.

Also, perhaps one can use the "report" function to tell a moderator that there are bogus pictures added.  The system can probably tell who added the garbage and send the abuser a nasty note.

Perhaps a Moderator could weigh in here.

Semi-related question:  Why do so many Japanese films have guys (usually the tops) wearing sunglasses or weird goggles?  It's rather distracting from what might otherwise be a nice scene.

I like one with "extra headroom" so the end of my cock slips around inside the condom–it provides more sensation.

@fuckall:

you have to change your life style. Change your diet and start working out (otherwise its the "yo-yo effect")

Quite true, but it's a struggle for me:  I have a high-pressure long-hours job that I truly love, and there's not always time or energy for the gym.

I try to be moderate with food, but I used to be a professional chef and I love to cook/eat…and I've been single for a while now, and many purchased items are portioned for two people rather than one...and I don't have the discipline to save half as leftovers.

One thing that does help is to put a few pictures of really in-shape guys on my fridge door.  It tends to slow me down reaching for the wrong things

I like a full bush (especially if there's a happy trail), probably because it reminds me of those middle school/high school days when the arrival of every new pubic hair was a cause for joy.

I feel sort of creepy playing with a guy who's completely shaved…I don't like thinking I'm messing with a prepubescent 11 year-old.  But to each his own:  Whether one likes shaved, trimmed, or full, there are LOTS of guys in each category.

@newbieff:

Even I am handsome and great body! But it is the same! Gays approached me, but I don't like ones approaching me, ones I like, i don't know how to approach them!

You'll know when it's the right time to do something for the first time.  I was 24 before I did anything with a guy, and even then it was only mutual handjobs…and then another year before I tried oral.  I think I was 28 before I fucked.

I think some of my "slow start" was because I didn't want to connect with guys, much less have sex with them, unless I thought they were Mr. Totally Perfect.  Needless to say, life was a bit lonely for me.  But soon I learned that I could be friends with other gay guys for friendship's sake, not simply as a prelude to sex.

Still, I don't worry about having "lost time."  I've had two wonderful relationships, several more boyfriends, and if I just want sex for its own sake, it's definitely available...but that has less appeal as I get older.

@furfiend:

Get a partner who appreciates a hairy arse! ;D

I had a BF with a rather hairy ass (i.e., right around his hole).  The first time we had sex I was unsure of this…but he kept himself super clean, and all that fur helped hold the lube so we always had a slippery time.

@trebleforte:

Shower at gym if I'm working out in the morning;  shower at home if working out at night.

I'm the other way round.  In the morning I'm in more of a hurry and I can shower/shave/etc. much faster at home.

In the evening, I have more time, and at my gym there's lots of good sightseeing.  A few years ago they put in shower curtains to "provide privacy."  But the holes in them for the hangers are great for catching a peek at guys going in and out of their showers.  Also, if some guy wants to play, we're hidden from view 

One exception:  A few years back a friend of mine and I would work out together in the evenings…and we'd go back to my place to shower.  We did a bit more than just shower.  Sadly, he moved away.

Welcome, Stretcha!  I've visited your wonderful country many times and I love it there.  I have good friends in Brisbane, and I've done concerts in Sydney…even took time off to visit a "gentlemen's sauna" off Oxford Street and had a wonderful time.  (That was in 2006; I hope it's still there.)

I'd consider retiring there, but I'm now a US citizen and it's tough to get a a resident's visa.  So I'll just have to keep visiting!

@CanadaGreg:

If newbie were someone tripping over the dog in the dark, not knowing if he’ll bite or not.

Very clever.  You've doubtless heard about the agnostic dyslexic insomniac, who lies awake at night wondering whether or not there's a dog…

@Alos:

how can i make a torrent that i have already uploaded before show up again as a new one??

If it's been deleted off the system, you can start over again and it will show up as new.

If it's still on here, it would have to be "promoted" by a moderator and it would show up with with new torrents with the recycle symbol in front of it.  I don't know how the moderators decide which old torrents to promote/recycle.  With nearly 150,000 torrents on the tracker, they can't do this for all of them.  Perhaps a moderator will shed some light here.

Welcome to the site.

Here's a hint for helping out your share ratio even if you don't have anything to upload:  If a new torrent appears that has a lot of files in it (for example, https://www.gaytorrent.ru/details.php?id=b3dc381ba32f324d3f627acd8bc2072ff95efba5ce9fc970 ), and it still only shows one seeder, download the torrent and select just one or two of the files (even the smallest ones).  Those will download fairly quickly for you, and then you'll be the "source" of those files for many other downloaders.  You'll get a large ratio on that torrent, and it will help out your overall statistics.

By all means, share what you can! All uploads are appreciated.

When I upload "vintage" material that's low resolution and/or fuzzy and/or a clunkly film transfer, I include some screenshots (from VLC player) and tell people to look at them to judge whether they want the material.  Some folks expect everything to be in HD.  I rather like the look of older films…it reminds me of when I first saw them years ago.
