@Fennekin Actually, it's quite the opposite of sketchy. There were legal reasons behind it being necessary in order to not just protect the site owner, but also protect our users.
While it may seem a little strange or like it would be counter productive, most changes that have come to the site in recent times have been for the protection of our staff and users alike.
@DandyLion I too alerted the sysop to this. I saw this in the helpdesk before I came into the forum to see that once again, the DB bug is back.
@blablarg18 This could just be the evil Canadian in me, but I think that the death penalty lets the person off too easily. There are much more unpleasant things that I can assure you would be much worse than death that could be done and dragged out for the rest of his life.
I know that line of thinking is just slightly sadist, but a part of me would be rather delighted to see him suffer insufferable pain for the rest of his life rather than getting his suffering over with in a relatively short order by comparison where he can move onto other things.
@justmejon There is a known issue that creeps up from time to time when the database needs a tune up. I have alerted the sysadmin to the issue and it should get resolved soon.
@ianfontinell That's because the .tw domain is for HTTP and isn't meant to be used with HTTPS
@esterlion What's affecting your uploads is the fact that there are no leechers actively downloading any of the torrents you're seeding. I'll see what I can do about getting you some traffic on your seeding torrents.
@esterlion You are in a low ratio state. When this happens, you can only download two torrents at a time. It seems that you are currently leeching two torrents, which is why other torrents will not download.
@PojuLover Just out of curiosity, was there an update to BitTorrent before this happened?
@PojuLover The only thing that comes to mind is something to do with your queue settings. Perhaps there's a maximum number of active torrents setting that needs to be changed? I'm racking my brain trying to come up with an explanation.
@PojuLover I see you actively seeding 5 torrents. Those torrents do not have any leechers though, so it may be difficult for the current moment to get active upload traffic on them. Are you still having this issue? If so, what error message are you getting from the tracker?
@zoheb Survey says you have seeded your torrent to completion and should qualify for the First Time Uploader Program.... PM @kalayaan with the torrent URL for your reward.
@divienbottom Anything that involves a female requires that it be uploaded in one of the straight categories. You can turn these categories on in your profile settings.
@ivcrn2 It's all good...
Properly set DNS is a critical thing to making sure things are in working order. It's good to know you were at least able to determine the cause of the issue.
As for IP address issues, there is a way to check to see if this is the issue. When it's not working, open a web browser and point it to this link:
https://tracker.gaytor.rent/stmdd/
If a stats page loads with the tracker back-end stats, then it is not your ability to connect to the tracker back-end, however if the page fails to load when it's not working, it means that you're not able to reach the back-end, which may mean your current IP address is being blocked by our DDoS protection software.
When this happens, the easiest fix is to use a VPN, or if you're already using a VPN, you may need to change VPN server locations to get it going again.
@raphjd WOW.... Makes me glad to live in a country like Canada. That kind of thing would NEVER fly here.
@raphjd It really makes one wonder what is actually going on and why these people really left in the first place.
@raphjd Now that's just a sad, sad state of affairs.
@raphjd WOW!!! Just WOW!!!
Is this really what the world is coming to? Shouldn't it be just as much the woman's duty to take some bloody responsibility as they too had a part in the creation of the child? It's really sad what this world is coming to.
@raphjd What the actual f***?!
If these people left the Ukraine because of a war that was making things so bad for them, why would they want to return? This makes no sense to me. It seems to suggest that there may be more going on than the public is being told.
I don't know about other countries, but I know the mainstream media in Canada is heavily censored and often is prevented from telling the whole truth on a lot of topics.
Any ideas as to what might actually be going on here?
@raphjd Is there no way to send these people back to where they came from? I'm not sure about how it works in the UK, but in many countries, when a group of people who are not born and raised there become too much of a problem, they get shipped back to where they came from.
It's a controversial idea to say the least, but it would be an effective deterrent to ensure that the problems are kept to a minimum.
