@vasco25-0 It's very simple. Take your existing .torrent files and open them in the working client. As long as you've set it up to use the same folders as the non-working one it should perform a re-check on the new torrents to determine what you've already downloaded and just continue them.

@ianfontinell-0 Controversial opinion, because I know it could end up reducing the volume of content being added to the site, but I#d like to see people start losing their uploading rights (at least temporarily) for refusing to make any attempt to curate the collections/dumps/spam they add to the site.

It raises another question for me to. Is there any point in reporting them? Some of them clearly violate the rules on collections, but to expect the mods to download all of these large collections to check them when they're reported is a lot of work and data usage, and most of the time you won't know the outcome unless you specifically go back and check after a few days.

The subject raises another thought. I think we need more feedback from the mod team when we report something on the site. We already have this when we report a duplicate, and you get a nice little message to say thanks for reporting and giving you some points.

When we report rule violations though we generally get no feedback at all. |I'm not asking for the mods to write an essay, and all we really need is some checkbox response form like
"Thanks for reporting xxxxxxxx.torrent.
Your report has been upheld/denied.
Action taken: User banned/Upload rights taken for xx days/User warned/NFA" and perhaps a chance for the mod to add an explanatory note if they like.

Feedback helps everyone. It helps users to better understand where the mods interpret the threshold to be, as opposed to rigid adherence to the rules, because some leeway is to be expected. We learn what is and isn't worth reporting, and that in turn helps the mods by filtering reports down to those that actually warrant checking. Uploaders are already anonymous, so there shouldn't be any problem with targeted campaigns against people.

The more we know the more we can help.

Even Onlyfans content can be within DMCA net.

Hang on! Nobody reply until I've been and made some popcorn and had a wee. I don't want to miss the "PoRnOgRaPhY CaNnOt Be CoPyRiGhTeD bEcAuSe It Is ObScEnE!!!" farce that I sense coming over the horizon.

@Dblckct said in Willing to pay:

please message me,

You might want to check the site rules:

GayTorrent.ru takes the privacy of it's members seriously. Therefore do not post your real name, address, e-mail address or IP in the torrent's presentations, torrent comments or forum. Please exchange personal information by PM only with members you trust.

@ikpooo Just a little tip for you:

If your client gives you an "unregistered torrent" error, as long as you've already connected to the swarm (and the seeder keeps it active) I think you can still download it. New people won't be able to join the swarm, but those already in it can stay connected to each other.

@Yqo-0 What is your suggestion?

@makigott Not wanting to sound rude or unsympathetic, but shouting in all caps on the forum like this probably isn't the best way to resolve this.

Looking at your link, it looks like the upload has been temporarily removed from the site while it gets reviewed to make sure everyone in it is of legal age. This is something I personally 100% approve of as it protects not only the site itself but also all the members.

If you want to try and get a productive response may I suggest that you write politely to the helpdesk to ask what happens next?

@fizr No

If you don't upload or download anything then the ratio of what you've uploaded to what you've downloaded will not change.

@lololulu19 If any studio is particularly on-point regarding DMCA infractions, there is no reason to expect them to be any less proactive regarding their older productions than they are their newer scenes.

In the case of this studio, I have noticed a real trend of them releasing "new" films/DVDs that are simply compilations of some of their old scenes. Indeed, they seem to be one of the worst studios for do so. I have seen the same scenes crop up in multiple ostensibly new films. This, to me, seems like a huge "fuck you" to those people who still purchase films rather than simply subscribe to their site as they are charging premium prices for something the customer may already have paid for. It's not unlike those wretched trading card packs for kids that are sold in newsagents. The kids end up just getting the same cards over and over again with nothing new.

Nevertheless, the studios financial interest in those scenes still exists, and as such there is no reason to expect that they will simply turn a blind eye to sharing of scenes they may have shot a decade ago. Also, while I agree that recent work isn't as good as it used to be, I don't see why that should have any bearing on their approach to DMCA breaches.

@ianfontinell-0 said in Favorite Twitter (X) accounts:

also it's an awful moment to consume porn from that platform as nowadays it is flooded with bot accounts, fakes and AI generated "creators"

Just a small correction Replace the word "porn" with "any content whatsoever" and you've hit the nail on the head.

What have I started??? At this rate I'm going to have to start asking all these SB companies for kickbacks! LOL

Just a couple of things to remember:

• Use the SB primarily for high-demand torrents, whether you want them personally or not. If you're grabbing something for yourself but there's little demand from other peers then you're better off downloading it directly and using the SB space for more popular files.

• Keep track of when your SB subscription ends and plan accordingly. If you have loads of stuff on there that you want to keep then make sure you allow yourself enough time to FTP it all to your local storage..

Interesting to see some boxes still working once you've passed your traffic limit. Might be worth a look at the terms and conditions to see exactly what they say and whether there's a second limit that cuts off completely or if the throttle you or whatever. I must admit that know just how much traffic you can generate I would only ever get a box with unlimited traffic.

I came across this too. I don't know if it's up to date or accurate, but some of you might find it useful if you choose to try:

@nancledra53 If you look in your client and see "Error: unregistered torrent" or similar in the status column then that torrent has been deleted. That's your notification.

All is not necessarily lost though. If the remaining swarm contains any seeders (or enough leechers with all the individual parts) you still have a chance of completing the download. When a torrent gets deleted from the site it stops anyone new from joining the swarm, but it has no ill effects on an existing swarm. It doesn't happen very often as people usually kill the download as soon as they see it's been deleted, but I've managed to finish a few files this way in the past. My advice is to keep them running in your client for a week or 2 if you can just to give them a chance.

@idesigay This probably isn't what you want to hear, but I think you already know the answer so I'm just going to be blunt and say it. Go and see your doctor! Assuming you live in one of the majority of countries where homosexuality isn't outlawed I can almost guarantee that they will have come across this sort of thing before so be honest about when and how it happened, as well as any and all symptoms you've had. It might be embarrassing, but doctors deal with loads of embarrassing things.

Even if you don't want to say how you think this started, still go and see your doctor! You're making a connection between a fun pokey-bum-wank several months ago, but there are other health issues that could cause similar symptoms, up to and including some cancers.

Sorry if that all seems harsh, but you need to man-up and seek medical advice, not the opinion of random forum users. Best of luck.

@lololulu19 said in GAYtor.rent ?:

What I don't get is why completely straight stuff is here.
Because sometimes a gay man can enjoy watching a straight guy even if they have to crane their neck to see around the tits

@lololulu19 said in GAYtor.rent ?:

EVEN THEN, I don't mind if the guy is extremely cute (which is quite rare).
So in effect you are saying that all straight content should be removed/banned except straight content that you personally enjoy. I don't think that's going to work unless you want everyone to send you their files before they upload them to the site.

I check this and other sites daily, and can safely say that even on a good day 98% of what gets uploaded is of no interest to me whatsoever, but I do recognise that obviously there are others that like it. Who do you think is uploading the straight content? I can't imagine anyone thinks to themselves "Yeah, I'm totally straight and have no interest in gay porn or men, but I think I'll join a gay torrent site and upload stuff that nobody there will want, because that'll be a productive use of my time."

I get what you're saying. I truly do, but at the same time this isn't a site just for you or me or any other single user. It's for everyone.

I can't even begin to fathom how the thought process that led to that went...

@frostygrin I think you might have things a bit mixed up, though I'm willing to listen if you think I'm wrong about the following....

The buffer is how much you can download before you reach your own minimum ratio, which is never higher than 0.8.

Your total download on the site is used to set your Base Daily Limit for downloads. You also get extra download slots which are calculated by multiplying that BDL by how far you are above your minimum ratio. By the time you've downloaded more than 800Gb from the site your BDL is already 100, plus your extras for the ratio bonus, plus extras if you've uploaded in the past.... I doubt there are many people downloading that many torrents each and every day, even with a seedbox.

What I was trying to say is that a seedbox is a great tool for fixing a poor ratio, and for giving yourself breathing room, but people shouldn't feel like they need to chase ridiculously high ratios just for the sake of it. It's better to put yourself in a good position, and then if you have things that you want to seed then you can still seed them without the use of a seedbox, and saving some money in the process.

@whiteDwarf-0 Personally I avoid those files like the plague. The very fact that they used to be on the banned lists of several torrent sites has embedded itself in my brain, and even if he himself is older now you have to ask yourself if their other performers are above board given past suspicions. I do find myself wondering the same thing about quite a few OF performers, but given that sites like OF and JFF have age verification policies in place I would hope that everything you see on those sites is compliant with the law.

It does make you wonder though about how culpable an individual might be if they were to be found with questionable files downloaded from one of those sites. Could you, for example say that as the site has policies in place to ensure that all performers are of legal age you should not be held accountable? Clearly it is impossible for viewers to check a performer's ID, so should there be something akin to the UK's "Challenge 25" policy? (For the foreigners here, the Challenge 25 policy is meant to prevent underage people from buying alcohol. It means staff should check IDs for anyone who looks like they might be under 25, saving a lot of problems at the till when 18 or 19 year olds used to get offended at being asked for ID.) Of course, such a move would completely eliminate all twink porn.

It's an interesting question, probably much debated in the past when Brent Corrigan's real age was discovered after shooting some scenes for Cobra. After all, how is a viewer meant to know if someone is 17 or 18? You would think that should the police decide to try to get a conviction the onus would be on them to prove the performer was underage. When you hear in the news about underage pornography I think we all associate it with children who could never be mistaken for an adult, but it becomes much harder to discern the legality of the issue when talking about performers at the 18+ threshold.

@hubrys It allows anything that aligns with the ideals of those who control it.

@raphjd May I suggest that the information available on the main site be amended to reflect the current situation as I believe at could be the source of the confusion? Looking that the trade-in page for points it clearly states:

For what I get points?

• You receive for every hour the system is registering you as a seeder 0.5 points.
• If you upload a new torrent, you might get rewarded by other users with seedbonus. Upload now to make extra credits!
• Upload missing/extra torrent pictures and get for each pic 1 Point extra!
