RE: Is gay-torrents.net down?
Site came back a couple of hours ago for me, so looks like everything is sorting itself out slowly.

RE: Is gay-torrents.net down?
@x819x Oh well, I'll try tomorrow and see. It's not like I'll be missing much while they get things back up to speed.

RE: Is gay-torrents.net down?
@x819x Odd. This is what I've been getting today when I try to go to the site:
However, just now it briefly tried to take me to some gambling site, and trying again has left me with a completely blank page. I've tried clearing my cookies and whatnot, but to no avail.

RE: Is gay-torrents.net down?
Anyone have any updates? Last thing I saw last night was a page saying they think it should be safe to log in again, but that they were still bringing some parts of the site back online. I opted to stay out until they'd had a chance to make sure everything was good.
Got up today, and it keeps trying to redirect me to another dodgy domain that throws big nasty warnings at me, so obviously haven't been able to get any more info.

RE: Mini PC advice?
@baddawg Thanks. I opted for a Trigkey G4 N100 mini-PC in the end, and started porting everything over to it a couple of days ago. It's a bit of a slow process transferring lots of files over, but I'm getting there. Currently have it set up with 4 USB HDDs connected through a hub, plus of course the old NAS drive available too.
The Plex library isn't very large yet, as I've normally deleted stuff after I've watched it, but I'm sure it will grow with time. I've also got all my porn running through it, and though I know PLEX could probably handle the job it would mean spending a lot of time reorganizing everything, so for the time being I'm going to continue running StashDB on it which is fine for local access. I'm not sure If it will allow remote access yet, so I'll need to investigate.
The N100 is struggling a little bit right now, but I'm asking a lot from it. Once I've got everything moved around and all my scans finished I think it should be OK. Torrents are taking forever to allocate for large downloads, but that's probably due to all the other stuff I'm doing with the disks at the moment. I'm hoping it settles down eventually.
As for power, I tried running my gaming rig through a power-monitoring smart plug for a couple of days, and at idle it drew around 0.12 kW per hour, costing roughly £0.85-£0.90 per day if I left it on. The N100 is sitting at around £0.10 per day, so the £150 to buy it should be covered in around 6 months. Not bad at all IMO.

RE: Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????
@john32123666 I've not noticed that before, but both our links seem to point to the same upload, although the links are subtly different.

RE: Ratio didn't change after 300GB of upload
@yababylol makes a good point. To get a sense of whether or not there's an issue here at all we'd need to know a bit more about your stats. As an example, for me 300GB of upload would result in a ratio increase of 0.002, though this would obviously decrease if there was any download traffic at all.

RE: Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????
@john32123666 said in Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????:
If these torrents are suspicious, then I encourage you to report them,
action will be taken if these posters violates any rules ...I think that's why I'm so curious about them. I (and possibly others) have reported them in the past purely because of the odd pattern of behaviour. They've subsequently disappeared from the site, but were they removed by mods or did the upload just happen to delete them shortly after reporting?
We're not told when or why mods remove a torrent, which is fine and I have no real issues with that, but if you report a torrent several times and see it disappear several times you start to wonder why it's coming back over and over again. There are times when I've wondered if I'm somehow being vindictive when I report it, and then you start to think that if it's come back yet again then maybe there's nothing wrong, but then it disappears again, so you don't know whether to report or not or if there's any point or not.
A few months ago I reported a group of uploads that seemed dodgy, and got a slightly terse message later from a mod telling me that I shouldn't exaggerate in my reports. I showed him exactly what I believed was happening, even expanding to include moare that had been uploaded since the report. It, turned out some did show suspicious behaviour, but others turned out to come from other sources, and the mod agreed that my report was accurate.
Since I've not heard anything about this video I can only assume that the mods have no issue with it being reported, which brings us back to this odd loop of uploading and deleting it. In reality, unless there's something malicious going on with the files then none of this matters. It's purely that it has my curiosity set to overdrive now.

RE: Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????
@raphjd Well one of them is back again. Has there been any movement on the investigation?
OK, I know that singling out a couple of videos like this is a bit petty, but it really is just fucking odd behaviour, especially when I've seen the same thing happening with these videos on other sites too. Members on those sites have also been asking what the hell is up with it.
Is it:
-
One person trying to bump the torrent the front page ever so often?
-
Multiple different users? If so, is it possibly the some person with dupe accounts?
-
Some sort of malware?
-
Someone just having fun because people have noticed it?
-
Something else?
What I'm really curious about is whether or not it's staff who remove it or the uploader. If it's staff then I'm just a bit surprised that the user is still here after it's been deleted so often.

RE: Name studios you absolutely despise
I could wear out my keyboard naming studios or producers I don't like, but I think mainly down to the genres they represent as opposed to anything else. Men@Play, Titan Men, Missionaryboys..... each have their own main selling point, and if you don't connect with that then you're never going to like their output.
I will concede that some studios just fall flat despite perhaps ticking all the right boxes on paper. Helix, for example, used to be one of my "go to" studios back in its heyday, but over the last couple of years they've stopped making entertaining porn with at least a hint of story and seduction and chopped it back to a very formulaic format.
FratX is one of the more annoying studios for me, mainly because it's become too chaotic. It's always been choppy camerawork and editing, and that is certainly an intended MSP, but it's degraded to the point that there's no sense of continuity. By the time you realise who's fucking who, or even which way up the camera is, the shot has moved onto something else. It's become a lot noisier too. Sketchysex follows the same formula, but seems to pull it off better, though I don't doubt they both fall under the umbrella of the same producers. I suspect Face Down Ass Up and SlamRush might be related to them too. I wouldn't say I despise any of them, and occasionally I find a real gem in amongst the rubbish so I grab new stuff when it appears.
I long time ago somebody asked the same question about performers. I remember suggesting Joey Mills for being wooden in all the wrong ways, as well as Denis Reed who I would want to see watch if someone described him to me, but after seeing him on-screen ruins every scene he's in for me, and I don't know why. There's nothing wrong with him, but I can't stand him.
I tend to steer clear of Himeros too. Most of it is a little bit too tantric for me, and so many of their films have a cast without anyone I fancy in them.For me to grab one of them I need to see a particularly special screenshot that resonates at that precise moment or see someone I really like in the cast list. I admit I've grabbed stuff I know I'm going to hate 99% of simply because of a well-timed pic that makes me want to see that few seconds of video.
I've got a huge library of films, but so many of them I've only kept for a small portion of the overall movie. I keep saying to myself that I need to go through and trim the files, getting rid of the scenes I don't like, and in some cases simply keeping a short clip of one cumshot out of a 2-hour film.

RE: Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????
Oh! I see the first one has been removed again, and already reuploaded! Come on guys, the not-knowing is awful.

RE: Main Site Issues ...
Not seeing any issues here on BiglyBT. I'm seeing upload traffic on several torrents, and I started a new download to test and it's coming through at 4MB/s
