I would not want to be a porn producer whose "production company" consisted of a few lights, a camera, and myself. At the very least some legal infrastructure and background checking is essential.

We know that one of the evils of under-age porn is the regret, guilt, and lasting dysphoria that models have as they get older. The same is true for 18+, or even 30+ guys. I wouldn't want these guys pissed off at me, especially if they are muscular and/or have troubled pasts. The TGS owner is one of a series of "producers" who met untimely ends--remember the guy who did the "Swell80" videos? Don't expect any new productions from him.

I would be concerned for the guy who made the Club1821 series some years back. He took nude videos of 20ish guys, saying they were audition tapes for a modeling career. That might have been part of the ruse, although some of the guys seemed too clueless to be in on that.

@lololulu19 said in VAPING:

is it bad?

Yes, it's bad. It's a nicotine delivery device, and nicotine is highly addictive. Addictions have the potential to take over and ruin someone's life. Yes, it's bad.

Structural comment: Your paragraph starting "here's one reason..." is a non sequitur: You bring up abortion, overpopulation, Trump, China, Taiwan, Biden, etc. That will be red meat to others who pile on and drown out the original vaping topic, which is worthy of discussion. May I suggest that you keep your posts on your original topic so they don't get derailed?

@twinkerzzz said in The site and the new UK Online Safety Laws:

Will ... non-consensual filmed material be made illegal where it is inherently obvious

I didn't see this specifically referenced in the linked article, and I haven't read the text of the "online safety bill," so I could be off-target here.

Much of the discussion seems about ensuring that internet surfers be able to avoid materiel that they don't wish to see--be it nudity, sexual acts, children engaged in same, etc. I am all for user control.

It does sound like the envelope of illegal content could expand:

• The act lists a number of criminal offences that constitute “priority illegal content”, which means companies within the scope of the bill need to have systems and processes in place to prevent users from encountering such material.

• Those priority offences include: child sexual abuse material; terrorist content; revenge or extreme pornography; and threats to kill. The act wants this sort of content to be proactively targeted by platforms’ moderation systems and processes.

You posed the question as to whether this would affect non-consensual filmed material, some of which I will admit to finding interesting. While the article doesn't explicitly mention non-consensual material, some non-consensual material could be covered by it. There have been laws for decades prohibiting nonconsensual recording, but such laws usually proscribe the recording (audio and/or visual) of a person where they had a "reasonable expectation of privacy." This could be something as boring as a video of me whilst folding shirts in my basement laundry room (which has no windows and thus I would expect privacy) to racier things like filming guys having a piss in a public urinal, or a video of someone in an adjacent toilet stall having a wank, with the belief that they can't be seen. Cases such as these require a complaining witness, either the subject of the video itself or a bystander. (CCTV footage would often nullify the case, as it destroys the "expectation of privacy.')

I appreciate the OP bringing this to our attention. We have certainly not seen the last of it--there will be court challenges, and then further fine tuning when the first batch of offences are charged.

How this law would affect this site is a question best left to the moderators on the torrent side. There is very little material actually hosted on this site; it is mostly a place where someone who wants a specific film is directed to another user who has that film so that they can trade it back and forth. The site already bans content ( https://www.gaytor.rent/notallowed.php ) that would be illegal in many jurisdictions, even if none of it is hosted here. One possible effect of this law might be that a site would need to flash a banner on log-in checking to see if a person were over 18 (or relevant age in their jurisdiction) and willing to see nudity and sex. I trust the mods have considered this and deemed it unnecessary.

Q: What do you call a person who pays for an escort's services?

A: A buy-sexual.

I use Viddly YouTube Downloader ( https://viddly.net/eng12 ) which works really well. There's a very well-featured free version, and also a paid version (which I have) that does even more.

One nifty thing about it is that if you have it enabled as a Windows startup process, any time you copy a YouTube URL to the clipboard, it will automatically start and it's just one click to do the download. (This feature can be disabled.) There's also a Mac version, which probably has similar functionality.

There are several different applications that can be used. I like AutoMovieThumbnailer ( http://www.amt.cc ), which is free and has an intuitive interface right out of the box (and you can fiddle with settings, too.

You can drag in a folder to 100 or more video files and it will make thumbnail sheets for each one, in .jpg format, named like the original video files, and put them in their own folder. One recent torrent that used that software is at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=621a84ace470aa893f627acd8bc2072f2b01bc20a40d0974&filelist=1#filelist . You might download a couple of the thumbnails and see what you think.

There's other software out there that will do similar things, and other members will have recommendations for them. You might try a few and see what you're most comfortable with

Let's not forget that this, like all porn, is fantasy. Anything he says in interviews is also part of the fantasy. There's no way of knowing what's true "in real life," and also no reason to care.

He looks several years younger in those photos.

His story now is that he has a steady BF, and their mutual understanding is that they don't fuck other guys...although kissing, sucking, and handjobs are OK.

There seem to be a lot of Reno Gold haters out there who are angry that he doesn't fuck on camera. That sounds almost like a compliment: "I think he's good looking, and it would be hot to see him fuck." But it's his life, his body, his relationship, and his choice. There are lots of OF/JFF guys who are never near another guy, and some who wank but never cum. Again, it's their choice.

I use Auto-Movie-Thumbnailer ( http://www.amt.cc ). The interface is a bit clunky, but with a little trial-and-error one can get it to work out fine. It generates .jpg thumbnails named the same as the video files it processes. It can handle different file types (.mp4, .avi, .wmv) within the folder it's thumbnailing.

I wish everyone who has more than, say, five video files in a torrent would use and auto-thumbnailer, whether this one or another..

While many of the models are probably novices trying to break into the business (or just random guys who need some cash), every now and then an "established" model is featured. (The late) Leo Cooper was in #7, and Alan Carly was in #94. There's a fairly complete listing of the models and the "hunters" at https://pbc.xxx/wiki/List_of_Czech_Hunter_actors. People very familiar with Czech twink porn will likely recognise additional names. (In another forum thread a member had a link to a list which was even more complete, but I don't recall what that was.)

I sometimes enjoy the first 5-10 minutes of the films when they show street scenes of Prague, which is one of the more beautiful cities in Europe. (I know this sounds like straight guys who say they read Playboy because of the articles.) I agree that the sex is often quite boring, because the "POV" style never shows both guys and tends to have uninteresting camera angles.

@eobox91103 said in Gay expectations:

every microsecond

I confess to an exaggeration there. I remember hearing a comedian say, "Somewhere on Earth, a woman gives birth 250 times per minute. She must be found and stopped."

@lololulu19 said in Gay expectations:

OK... I WILL DO THAT. (I send the money).

P. T. Barnum once said, "there's a sucker born every minute." With gullible chat consumers, it's probably every microsecond these days.

@jokuihmemies said in leakedzone.com:

what media converter u guys recommend?

I use Movavi Video Converter, which can convert almost any format to almost any other format. It also has some editing capability, such as cropping, trimming, audio levels, etc. It's 55 USD for a permanent license on one machine.

It has some nifty features, such as allowing you to select which audio and video codecs the final product has (especially good if your "smart" TV only recognises some codecs), and variable conversion quality so that you can choose the size of the output file (in case it's a bigger file, and you want it to be <4GB so it fits on a FAT32 thumb drive).

If you like uTorrent (as I do), you don't want to use version 3.6. Version 3.5.5 is stable (I use it), and you can get a download of it at https://www.filesoul.com/software/uTorrent/3-5-5-45271-for-PC-Windows/download/ . Then, make sure you got to Options -> Preferences -> General and un-tick the box that says, "Automatically install updates:"

Do NOT try to get this version from a link on domain uptodown.com. Those links have been corrupted and will install version 3.6, which is a disaster.

You can also follow the suggestions of others on there who advocate version 2.2.1. That also works...but again, make sure you untick the auto-upgrade box.

Good luck with your project, and let us know how it turns out!

@john32123666 said in Question about renaming files:

A File from search : of any ...
Torrent Name
Torrent Description
Torrent Filename
will reveal as long as 3 boxes are check

Bear in mind that the torrent filename and the name of a file in that torrent are not the same thing. The search function does not look at individual filenames, only the torrent name. If a torrent is named "Hunky Vintage Videos," and it contains a file "Bruce Fuksalot," no search will find "Fuksalot" unless the uploader included that information in the torrent description.

There is still an uploading rule for torrents that have a collection of files that says, "The description must contain a list of all video files or titles including, by at least copy/paste the torrent’s file list." This rule has been around since the dawn of time (if not before) and was workable when uploads rarely had more than a small handful of file. Today, torrents (especially from fan sites) often have over a hundred files--nobody lists them, and nobody is sanctioned for this.

I found a good link for this: https://www.filesoul.com/software/uTorrent/3-5-5-45271-for-PC-Windows/download/

I'm also going to keep this install file, so if anyone else has trouble with uTorrent versions and needs the file, you can PM me and I can email or Dropbox it to you.

I have a Windows 10/64 machine that I use for torrenting. I had an OS crash, now fixed, but somehow my uTorrent 3.5.5 got spontaneously deleted--likely along with the folder of active torrents that I had running.

I'd like to install uTorrent 3.5.5 from scratch: There's no uTorrent 3.6 on my machine that it will replace. There have been several posts on here in the last year describing the evils of 3.6 and wisely urging people to install 3.5.5 over it, and uncheck the auto-new-version option. But, the link that is often given for getting 3.5.5 is https://utorrent.en.uptodown.com/windows/download/106960498 . That downloads a file called utorrent-3-5-5-build-46348.exe, which sounds good...but when I run that executable, I get the following screen:

I've added that arrow. It looks like this will install 3.6, which is a mess.

Does anyone have a link that will really download 3.5.5 or earlier? Please don't suggest that I use the link above that doesn't work.

Thanks!

@raphjd There's something odd about his left thigh and his right arm. (Do we call this "differently appendaged.") If one crops the photo about half way down, it looks a lot better.

I think the manner of death shades my view of a porn performance.

There are, unfortunately, the many who died from AIDS. I met (conversation only) Kristian Brooks shortly before he died, and he was the gentlest of souls:

There are also the suicides, such as Mike Green/Leo Cooper/etc. who was straight, married, and was troubled from "gay by day/straight by night."

If I were paranoid, I might think that my enjoyment of their performances led them to behaviour that was ultimately destructive....but they made their own choices. I'll also add that every scene I've watched with Kristian Brooks was with a condom.

I know what you mean, but I find that term amusing nonetheless.
