@galwaybiguy The points go into the void so to speak, but anyone downloading the torrent in the time that it is freeleech do not get dinged for downloading it.

RE: Circumventing duplicates aka Fansite collections
@ianfontinell-0 Well, there's a few things at play here. The rules for a collection require that collections have a well defined common theme. The general rule to this is that the content must all be of the same performer, or must be from the same site/studio.
The unwritten exception here is with fan sites like OF, JFF, etc. Since these sites are an independent site so to speak, such collections must be from the same performer or same account. As a general rule, mixing different creators of the same site (such as OF, JFF, etc) does not constitute a collection, so these torrents would end up being removed for not having a clearly defined theme.
The only time where we would consider it being acceptable to re-up content like this is if the collection that already exists goes to say November 2024 (just as an example), but the collection that is being uploaded has all the same content, but also extends the collection to say September 2025.
Also, the only other exception to the duplicate issue is if the two collections are the same content, however are in a different format container (i.e. one is in AVI, the other is in MP4). If they're of the same format container, they are considered a duplicate unless the file size difference for each video in the collection is greater than 10%, unless there is a technical difference between the two, such as one is 1080p and the other is only 720p, or if one is 4k and the other is 1080p.
So... When it comes to these collections, I would encourage you to bring such cases to my attention, and I'd be happy to review them on a case by case basis and handle them accordingly. We try to keep things fair for all users, so I'd be more than happy to dig deeper into this if you can give me examples of what you're referring to.

RE: Reuploading Unregistered Torrents
@pornoaf-0 Sometimes it is possible to find out why, but it all depends on what was done when they were removed, and if the staff has access to the right parts of the system to dig for that information.

RE: Torrent app not downloading
@darkheart This is a common issue on Android devices. The easiest way to get things going from my experience is to use Vuze on an Android device instead.

RE: Is there something wrong with the layout?
@spiffyweasel-0 Usually, clearing the cache and cookies, then doing a force reload will fix the issue.

RE: Help my uploads keep getting Removed
This was explained to you by staff in several PM's. The issue is that you keep uploading random collections with no common theme, as per the requirements of our rules for a collection.

RE: What is up with this video???
@frostycab I have attempted contact with the user many times in the past, and at least as far as my messages go, they have never responded. Usually, before just yanking a user's rights, I'll give them a warning and reach out to help them understand what they've done wrong, so as to give them a fair chance to understand the expectation, and make the necessary corrections.
In the case of this user, I have never received a response from any of my attempts to make contact with them, so I have to assume that either there is a language barrier and they can't understand, or that they simply do not care. If they won't respond or engage with me to help resolve the issue, there's not a whole lot of other options it leaves me with unfortunately.

RE: What is up with this video???
@raphjd It seems someone tried to give this user another chance, only for them to repeat the same mistakes over and over. I've yanked their ability to continue this once again, but if it gets restored again and they continue on this path, I think the next step may be a permanent "vacation" if ya know what I mean...
I'm not opposed to giving users who have screwed up a chance to learn from their mistakes and get it right, but when the same issues keep coming up time and time again, then I have to wonder what's the point of giving them chance after chance just to do the same crap over and over again.

RE: error: invalid download state, try resuming
Usually invalid download state means that the torrent ran into an error the last time you had your torrent client open, usually that there are file(s) supposedly missing. Data is Invalid is usually a sign that when it completed a file, it did not remove the .!ut from the end of the file name, so it thinks the file is not there, as it was reported as 100% downloaded, but the file was not renamed to remove the partial status from the end of the file name.
In both cases, Force Re-Check, then starting the torrent will fix this.

RE: This might be important information for accessing this site..
@lololulu19 Some VPN providers also have a DPI firewall option, which will not only use TCP 443 instead of the default UDP 1194, but will also block DPI systems from determining that the traffic is actually VPN traffic.

RE: This might be important information for accessing this site..
@lololulu19 This is because they try to censor P2P traffic across their network. If you have a VPN like PrivateVPN, you can connect to the VPN using port TCP 443 to evade their port restrictions and packet sniffing, then open your torrent client, and it should give you no problems.
The key is using TCP 443... Traditional VPN connections can be filtered based on port, however you cannot realistically censor or block port TCP 443 without blocking most of the internet.

RE: Torrent upload not starting/uploading, despite leechers
This is usually a sign of improper port forwarding. You need to make sure that the port that your torrent client uses is forwarded through your home network or VPN to your computer. This is a critical step to being able to get proper upload traffic.

RE: Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????
@jokuihmemies Except that this is the same user... I have revoked their upload rights again, as they keep repeating the same infractions, despite multiple warnings.

RE: Torrent and Support Menus Not Working
This is very interesting... The system admin must have been doing something. I see that even on a regular user account, these things are all up and running. If you're still having a problem, let me know.

Nail him up to a cross and let him die... If he comes back in 3 days. I'll admit I was wrong.
