A couple of weeks ago I bought a new laptop. Needless to say the first thing I did was fill the hard drive with porn. LOL

Bad news is, it's blown up. Tried turning it on the other day and nothing happened. Needs to get sent back to ACER for repair. Now the question is, if I send it back am I likely to end up in a world of shit for having all this downloaded porn on it? No, there's nothing like underage kids or rape or goat-fucking on there, but it's all come from torrent sites such as this one.

What should I do? Send it back and hope for the best, or write of the £400 I spent on the laptop?

Help, guys!

Oh bugger! That'll teach me not to read things properly. LOL

Thanks for the upgrade. Ratio is starting to climb nicely now.

I've just got myself a seedbox running rutorrent, but I'm having trouble getting the RSS feed to work. I've generated a download link using "alternative", but when I try to get rutorrent to add it I get an "error loading feed" message.

I managed to get it to work last time I had a seedbox, but I'm obviously missing something. My ratio has dropped slightly over recent weeks, and now sits at 0.995. Could it be that you need to have a better ratio for it to work?

Any help would be appreciated.

Ah, didn't know that. So how come I keep getting messages about unregistered torrents?

EDIT: Just realised I should really have put this in the "Downloading" sub-forum. Could a moderator move it please?

I keep getting this error in Vuze under the Tracker Status column: "Error (unregistered torrent)"

It seems to be happening quite a bit, but only with torrents from this site. Sometimes I managed to download some of the file before the error, but quite often I get the error right at the start and get nothing. The really annoying thing is I can never find the page I downloaded it from again, even with the search function. The most recent one is only a day or so old, and its already dead.

The only thing I can think of is that the torrent might have been removed by staff for rule infringements or as a duplicate. Would it be possible, instead of simply deleting all the duplicates straight away, for staff to perhaps mark the torrent as a duplicate and have the download link send you to the page for the original upload? This would make things so much easier for us. The original uploader would still get his credit, but it would give the rest of us a way of getting the file we've already started downloading.

Thank you smithdtn. I just wanted to make sure before I started using it here. I;ve seen people advised to inform their trackers just to avoid complications. I was also a bit worried that if I ended up on the same server as another member here it might cause issues, but I think the chances of that are pretty slim.

Just out of interest, am I still able to use my home PC and laptop to download here even if I have the seedbox running at the same time?

I've just got a seedbox for a 1 week trial, and I'd like to try it out with the site. I don't want to get into trouble and get banned though.

How do I use the seedbox without triggering the "1 user, 1 account, 1 IP" issue? Do I need to register the seedbox with a staff member or something?

Thanks in advance. x
