@IncubusAZ Not to worry. Your thread has simply been hijacked by one of our most uninteresting and repetitive members, who has a history of talking about the anatomy of our Forum Moderator, thinking it will curry favor.
Your images can be fun (or HOT) because the size adjustment is so gargantuan, most images are obvious fantasies -- even for porn stars!

@kalayaan I would love to know what the reasons are.
I understand your curiosity, lolo.
Was thinking it may be related to the increasing number of requests for material from "cam sites," which have become much more active in pursuing DMCA enforcement. Or, maybe I'm wrong.
But as @kalayaan noted, "The owner has his own reason(s) on removing that section." Which is to say, sometimes it makes good sense to keep your administrative or business issues off the website's public pages.
I'm grateful that for a small membership fee I'm connected to so many opportunities, even if it's not every item on my wish list.
I understand the perception that the site is "understaffed," but as background, I believe the Moderators and Helpdesk staff are unpaid volunteers.
I once considered taking on such a role, but felt that my overall (stunning lack of) computer skills would require too much remedial education before I became an asset, rather than a liability.
Along those lines, some members volunteer -- but quit in short order -- during the training. Others may not possess the "team" attitude or service orientation to deal with a never-ending stream of newbie questions (answered easily in the Rules section, but who reads these days?).
When all's said and done, I applaud any computer-savvy members who have the time and interest to volunteer. It would really help our site!
And to return to the thread's origin, I really appreciate Brad's citations -- I award him the rarely used bikini..! 
@kakashi123 You are correct. And speaking from a place of helpful concern, members who continually make lengthy posts about this official site policy change, and dubious statements about copyright law -- they are riding a very thin line.
@frostycab Worked fine for me, so for original post I'm leaning toward historical themes like attention seeking or cognitive disarray.
@dziber As I have not already stated, you could afford to turn your snit-level down when someone responds in an attempt to help, even if you mentioned that search parameter before.
@cuppednoodle I appreciate the effort it took to locate new imagery and assemble this full panel of proposed icons. As well, the B&W type effect is highly legible.
Many of these icons give me an immediate Aha! feeling, because the image clearly aligns with the category. With respect, a few of the icon images felt less connected, or had possible issues like "too dark" or "not quite a match."
For me, these would include BDSM, Black and Jock (dim lighting), Bears (needs hair), and "not quite a match" for Amateur (looks pro), Hunks (look like Jocks), and Youngblood (could be Daddies & Sons).
Again, these are one person's observations, overall it is very impressive work.
This thread began with a very simple question about gaytorrent user title colors. Midway, it was hijacked by a rambling and inaccurate diatribe about takedowns.
I thought this was a topic that is highly discouraged for discussion. Which begs the question, why is this person allowed to continue posting in this manner?
And, as a "bump" of sorts, it was suggested several posts back that the thread had run its course. Does someone have the key for this lock?
@blablarg18 I have it on good authority that the moderator of this Board is a strong believer in "Nettiquette." Here, this means that an Original Poster should offer their own opinion first on a topic, unless they are doing specific research and don't want to bias the ensuing comments.
For starters, I'm curious. What do you feel is the relationship between this awful news on child abuse and Politics?
Well, hmm. I've encountered a few of your screeds that place LGBT culture and protections below -- oh, say -- church orthodoxy. Perhaps your silent point is that gay parenting is inherently in conflict with god's plan, and should be restricted by legislation?
But we really couldn't know until you answer.
@rashoo It's your first post, so don't be afraid to try again.
Stay on this same thread, and hit the Reply button. You will be taken to a new screen, sample attached.
On the row of icons, the last is Upload Image. Click this, and you'll be taken to your computer's directory. Find the image(s) you wanted to upload, and click Open, it now appears in your message.
Good luck finding your dream man.
@john32123666 Who can say!
But I feel that it's time to stop moving this person's continuously misplaced posts, and locking them -- as an incentive to do better.
@lololulu19 There is no one on this Forum who shows such willful ignorance about where to categorize their threads or posts.
@john32123666 said in None of torrents aren't uploading? (Torrent app Transmission on MAC):
The only possible solution is to grab freeleech w/ enough leechers ...
I realize that it's not an option for everyone, but many members with minor-to-moderate ratio deficits could climb out if they donated funds to maintain the site, and receive credits that would lift their ratio.
Once above the minimum ratio, it's a matter of not taking more porn (expressed in bits and bytes) than one gives back.
@lololulu19 This is a lot of things, but a New Forum Issue is not one of them.
@lololulu19 said in Paying for porn scams and other internet scams:
A very famous scam is people selling exotic, expensive animals via the internet Typically parrots, dogs, horses, etc. That scam involves a very low price for the pet, BUT then they require you to pay for the "shipping" which is considerable. They want to be paid through a money wire service at the last minute. They pretend that they are being so nice, but then ship the animal, and tell you it is waiting at the airport for you to pick up, but before they can release it, you must wire them a lot of money immediately (so you don't have time to check them out). The animal never existed, it has not shipped, they are just after your money!
I'm so glad you uncovered that scam before you put big money down on that unicorn.
@ianfontinell I think your suggestion of reaching out to the Helpdesk is the best option here.
I like your optimism, but freeleeching to attract a single seeder's attention is a real dice roll. That 26 GB upload would require more than 5,200 seed points per day, which a lot of people may not have on hand.
As well, I'm assuming there are some "single seeders" who don't check-in to the site regularly, or who may be too busy / uninterested to comply.
Anyway, best of luck, @/lovemeyou-0
