@john32123666 Yes, John is making an important point here.

If you completed a successful first upload, you should receive the 600 seedpoints. However, the seedpoints must be "cashed-in," as he noted, at:

@ricky Agree with Ricky there's a strong chance of a previous downloader receiving your Comment in his Messages, and reporting it right away. There is really no benefit to identifying a dupe in the Comments section, although members sometimes do. Use the Report Duplicate button instead to protect your discovery -- and chances of being first/50 points.

@roryisms I think it's sweet that you would miss having children, but for those of us whose paternal instincts are not strong enough to adopt or surrogate, etc., there are usually some very satisfying alternatives.

Many in this group have nieces or nephews with whom they can spend time regularly, or at least on holiday get-togethers. As an only child, I don't have that option, but I have friends and neighbors with kids, and that works fine for me.

@gerggently said in Sex-Ed for 18-24 Group:

@flozen

My only comment on this is that sex education should be taught from about aged 8, with zero religious input into it.

Leaving sex ed too late, or not taught at all as bible-thumping states would like, is harmful to a person's development. No one should be learning about sex from porn.

Good point. With better health and nutrition, the onset of puberty has been trending downward, perhaps 10 or 11 in some cases -- thus, education needed here.

And nothing wrong with kids a bit younger getting a less clinical description -- one that doesn't involve storks, or baskets left on doorsteps!

@bc22 I was pleased to see her nomination, too -- and while it's political, it's also human rights, LGBTQ and a dozen other areas of interest.

Certainly, with Dr. Levine we know that health issues of particular interest to the LGBTQ community will be addressed at the highest administrative level.

disculpa la pregunta y mi inorancia , pero me esplicarias la diferencia porfavor

I hope this helps -- there is likely similar information on the Spanish version of Wikipedia, as well:

Also, when members are not enjoying the Language Boards here...

...the site requests that we post using the "default" language, English. Apps like Google Translate will make this very convenient for you!

@frostycab Applause for catching an important safety rule for all that was overlooked!

@ricky I remember the 10x too, and somehow missed the point that it was for a server.

While my ratio is solid by a few TB, I sent in a modest # of Euros for that promotion, because I realized that I receive a lot of, um, benefits from my ongoing time here.

Of course, a lot of donations help individuals keep their ratio at the proper level. But even if a member has a great ratio, I'd encourage those with the financial ability to donate from time to time.

I think I'm due again soon. And as I come from a marketing background, I would gently suggest that the Home Page promotion be updated from "New Year's."

Perhaps a "Spring Fling" or other ideas...!

@lololulu19 Of course, as South Park can't have a touching moment without a perverse one in the same show, the (sometimes) transsexual teacher Mr. Garrison also wonders why his own father didn't find him worthy enough to molest him.

In real life, my dad was not a big hugger, it's hard to recall receiving one with any gusto. Our family is Scandinavian/German, and it's a broad stereotype (but in this case, accurate) that culturally, they are not very demonstrative.

Gee whiz, magentas, thanks, especially for the surprisingly fit O'Malley!  Had no idea he had all that going on underneath that dress shirt.  Is it too late to change my vote?

Now that Obama has returned to civilian life and beach vacations, well, that man has kept it in shape, as well.  He probably eats whole grains, low sodium and 1-percent milk – the dietary improvements the Trump administration is taking away from America's schoolchildren:

And then there's ol' "sweaty teats Trump."

As far as Trump's own eating habits and body issues, a whopping two of 10 nutritionists offered positive comments in the following slideshow:

Even the Pope greeted Melania with questions about Trump's physical fitness:

Melania, when you feel the poke of that belly, and the "crotch pinky" hiding underneath, just close your eyes and dream of Slovenia (or better, Trudeau/Macron/O'Malley, and if you're a very naughty girl, Kushner).   >:D

@raphjd The topic is Dr. Levine's nomination, so there I remain.

Because it was used as a criterion for Dr. Levine, I'm amused by the irony of the "best for the job" logic for her. Just look at the previous Administration -- with its staggering number of tense resignations and firings -- and each and every one of those appointees and hires, sooner or later, deemed "really, really, not best for the job at all."

I'm optimistic that with her focused expertise, Dr. Levine won't join the group above.

And again, as this thread concerns Dr. Levine's nomination, I won't engage on politicians (Kamala) or topics (small-business bailouts) unrelated. Have a good one -- I am over and out.

@tombrick If you were in dire need of that 1 GB, then redeeming those 100 points was a good solution.

Keep in mind, though, that if you can wait to exchange points for higher GB amounts, the "cost" per GB goes down, as taken below from one of John's helpful links.

At 10 GB, you're exchanging at 60 points for each GB, compared to 100 points in a 1 GB transaction...

@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.

It's a bit off-topic (yet germane to this thread), but I'm wondering who is utilizing the name "A Former User"?

Well over a year ago, I was friends with a member (of high Reputation) who self-changed his original name to AFU, which is generally a no-no on this site. He has some intrinsic learning challenges, and when he volunteered for the site, the training mentorship was unsuccessful, and he left.

Just by writing style alone, I think this AFU is a different individual. It would be curious if someone picked this exact name out of the blue. And when one clicks on the name, it leads nowhere. But if it is my old acquaintance, I'd love to hear from him.

That's about it -- oh, except to say I'm not a DMCA spy, and certainly not a bot, a bot, a boat, ABBA, a b-o-ooooo-oo TTT, ab(&%&($(P**)^^&&^ ...

That's an impressive "solve," but iamchris last posted to this site in spring of 2020.

Perhaps he is still a regular visitor but not posting. Or, hopefully he will stop in to get the answer!

@csucker69:

Hey, i've got a bunch of hardcore, domination type - paid audio files (over $1000) worth of content, from warpmymind, niteflirt, a few other places. Also, some premium xtube clips, not many, the previtus hate crime porno 2 to trade, for similar paid kind of files, audio or video, thanks. Looking for dominant, verbal kind of stuff, thanks.

It's your first post here, so, of course, welcome.  Perhaps it has been some time since you went on a site with a "porn community."  The concept of trading porn disappeared quite some time ago.  In countries where it is permitted, people (gay, straight, and all else) upload and categorize their porn.  This site uses a "torrent" methodology, which may be explained in the FAQs, or easily learned via Google.

Without a doubt, you will find individuals with your porn tastes, and whatever your bedroom inclination, hopefully you will both give and receive.  No need to spank … er, I mean thank me.

(Sir) Ari Gold has passed away at 47 from leukemia. While he never quite broke out to mainstream radio as a solo performer, Ari had a long stretch of success within the LGBT and dance music scenes.

He sang backing vocals for Diana Ross and Cyndi Lauper, and later had several collaborations with RuPaul.

Curious if anyone here enjoyed his music. And while he wasn't the first, Ari did a lot for queer visibility in the recording industry -- out and loud and proud. RIP.

@tombrick Hi Tom. If you have several partial downloads because your rights are currently suspended -- and you truly like the videos -- I would just keep them on-hold until your downloading privileges are restored. You've already "spent" part of the "ratio cost" toward these files, so why not finish them at a later date?

Going back to your original post, you redeemed 100 seed bonus points in exchange for 1 GB, but you hadn't mentioned (yet) that your downloading rights are suspended. So, it's very likely that the 1 GB was added to your ratio and improved it, bringing you closer to the minimum the site requires, rather than allowing you to use the 1 GB on downloads of any kind.

Downloading too much, too quickly is a very common problem for new members, once they fall into a negative score and their grace days elapse.

Everything John told you in the previous post will help you. Freeleech torrents -- especially when you're one of the first to download -- will bring your ratio up. The First Time Uploader Program offers a 600-point (10 GB) bonus for that initial upload you make. https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/7663/first-time-uploader-program-ftup

As much as we hope the advice above will get you started on the road out of ratio purgatory, I can't stress enough the importance of new members reading the information prominently posted on the Rules and Information Board. As well, the GT Suppport Discussions will broaden your knowledge with the many pinned items and threads with member experiences.

Of course, reading is rarely the fun part, but it's the way to cure your ratio, stay on the right side of the rules and become a self-sufficient citizen of the site.

So, hit the books and best of luck going forward.

With respect, this is a file-sharing site -- it's as simple as that.
