@spam17:

I wouldn't take the risk though..

:blink:

I fully respect your right to decide what is right for you, but do you mind if I ask why this is? Science has been able to validate that if you are undetectable, you actually cannot pass it onto a sexual partner. There have been many studies conducted to attempt to quantify the risk, and every last one of them failed to provide so much as one case where transmission occurred from the undetectable partner.

So… I respect your right to choose what is right for you (especially if you are doing so armed with all the facts), but I'm kinda curious to understand the reasoning behind that decision.

There quite possibly is a free solution, however if there is, I am not aware of a free solution.

@spam17:

Gay and bisexual menb are the population most affected by HIV. .

This may be the case in North America, but on a worldwide scale, the heterosexual female accounts for the majority of HIV infections on a global scale.

If by changed you mean my government funding for my meds, no… The bill is still hefty, but it gets billed straight to the government, so I never actually see the bill.

As for my progress with HIV, I'm down to one horse pill once a day with pretty well no side effects.

Yeah… I cannot deny... It f :cens: s your s :cens: t up mentally for the first about year... Within the first year, you come to terms with it.

Knowing Trump, he'll probably decide something really dumb like HIV doesn't exist, and that it's just a myth, so he'll pull the plug on testing, research, etc. for it… This is already the direction he's leaned towards several times now

@obras62:

Every six months. My BF is HIV+ and we've been together for more than 8 years.
I am still -

And if he's on the meds and undetectable, I would be completely shocked if he were to pass it onto you, even with bareback sex all the time, and no pulling out.

@rocnhrd:

There are no standards from country to country for the results of the test.

WRONG!!! There are standards, however there are several different versions of the "standard", depending on what region of the world that you are in. For example, you will find one set of standards within North America, but you will find a completely different set of standards in say Europe. So this statement is misleading.

@rocnhrd:

There are over 70 conditions other than HIV, that can make the test show positive.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask for verification on this one, including several examples of things that can cuase this. This is the first that I have heard of this…. EVER.

@rocnhrd:

in western 1st world countries HIV is still only in the gay men and drug user groups.

Also…. WRONG!!! HIV does not discriminate, so why do you? Although HIV is most common in gay men and IV drug users in particular, this does NOT mean that it is something that ONLY affects gay men and IV drug users. This is a myth... HIV can and does infect the heterosexual female just the same is it does the gay man. Don't kid yourself.

@rocnhrd:

in the u.s.a.  between 1982 and 2012, 652,000 HIV positive people died, not necessarily from aids.  Of those over 300,000 died due to overdose of AZT.   To put it in perspective 475,000 people in the USA die ever year of lung cancer, the 4th leading cause of death in the USA.

Ummm… Actually, these stats only account for up to 2012. The problem is that around 2010, the newest classes of HIV meds were introduced to the market, which have substantially changed the entire reality of how HIV is managed, and how it affects the lifespan. What you don't mention is that from 2003 - 2016, the official stats have actually dramatically declined due to the new meds being introduced on a wide scale in 2010 or later, and the availability of the meds. So it may have been true that at one point HIV was the 4th leading cause of death, however this is no longer the case. The vast majority of cases of HIV related death these days are either from people who refuse to take the meds for their own reasons, or the unfortunate few who do not have access to sufficient medical coverage to be able to have access to the meds. Generally speaking, not having access to the meds is more common in the United States than it is in Canada where I am, because unlike the United States, the government in Canada covers things like medications that you need to live if you cannot afford them.

@rocnhrd:

Do your own research and find out the truth about HIV and AIDS….it may not be what you think.

I would be inclined to suggest that your advice may indeed be wise. The truth about HIV may not be what you think it is either. A lot has changed in the last 10 - 15 years.

It would seem that there are actually people downloading the contents. This would suggest that you are a passive node, or not connectable, which our tracker does not like at all. This is different than a lot of other trackers. To solve this, find out what port number your torrent client uses, then make sure that it is forwarded from your modem/router to your computer in both TCP and UDP, then restart your torrent client. This should solve your issue.

Also, I will look over the torrents in your profile and see what I can do to drum up some more traffic for you.

Oh yes… And in addition to the routing issues that the internet seems to be having as of late, which sometimes affects some of our users, there also seems to be a widespread DNS issue, usually just with the tracker. This can generally be bypassed either by using Google DNS, or by modifying your system's hosts file to include the reference to the tracker. When you combine these two issues, they can become quite problematic for a lot of people.

I personally do not seem to be affected by the DNS issues, as I run my own DNS systems, so I can keep everything running properly. I do however experience routing issues from some countries which result in the exact symptoms that you describe where it either gets stuck in "Establishing Secure Connection" or "Waiting for..."

Generally, when I run into routing issues, changing the country that I'm using for the VPN, or turning the VPN off completely seems to solve the problem every time.

The short answer: Yes… It is likely more than just one site that is affected. It is likely any traffic that takes that particular route from your ISP across the internet. It is just coincidental that our site happens to be the only thing that seems to take that particular route.

It sounds like your issue may be routing related. There is either something with your ISP, or possibly something with the routing of the internet itself recently that has been a little strange with our site. As I mentioned, depending on what country I use for my VPN depends on whether or not I can connect to the site.

I personally use PrivateVPN. It would seem that recently, there are sometimes intermittent issues with some of their server locations being able to reach our website, however I know that Frankfurt, Germany 1; London, UK 2; Oslo, Norway; and I believe also Kiev, Ukraine are all locations that have port forwarding enabled that will allow you to connect to our site and tracker no problem, and will allow you to have the correct ports open, as long as you're using UDP + TAP for these locations.

I'm not sure if it's related or not, but recently, depending on what country I use for my VPN, I cannot establish communications with the server. If I set the VPN to the right country on the other hand, I can connect just fine. I wonder if these two issues are related.

I believe the problem has to do with your ISP and the way that they run things. I think you will find that if you use a VPN to override your ISP's blocks that they have in place, your problem should go away.

I have been able to confirm this with a few other cases of this with other users who are using the same ISP that you're on. Simply put, it would seem that your ISP either does not cooperate with our tracker, or that your ISP has some sort of block in place that is preventing you from reaching the tracker. Although I do not know the exact technical cause, it would appear there is either a routing block or a routing problem between your ISP and our systems.

I would be inclined to recommend the use of a VPN not just for privacy reasons, but also to ensure that you are not caught behind routing blocks that I am certain your ISP puts into place for whatever the reason.

EDIT: Come to think of it, I recall trying to troubleshoot the very same issue with a couple of different people who use the same ISP as you do and determined that there seems to be an intermittent routing issue to certain IP subnets (one of which our tracker falls into). As I recall, filing a trouble ticket with your ISP eventually solved the problem, but it was a long, complex, and drawn out process, and the problem reappeared again within a week or two. So… For this reason, I would suggest a VPN.

The official answer: You only need to be logged in to submit the .torrent file to upload the torrent to the tracker, as well as to download the .torrent file you need to seed the upload. Once you have downloaded the .torrent file for your torrent program to seed/leech with, whether you are logged in or not makes absolutely no difference.

@gaypraha2:

hum there shouldn't be 2 torrents with same content in the first place IMO hence the reward for duplicate torrents.

I think what he's referring to is if for example he downloaded a torrent from another site, then found that torrent here (or vice-versa). And yes… This is called the re-seed process. It is explained in our upload guide, starting at step 4 where it talks about downloading the .torrent file that you need to seed the actual content with.

As for doing this with two different files on here, this is also possible using the same process. If for example, you're seeding a duplicate torrent (or you uploaded an identical duplicate), you can switch to the original with this process as well.

Perhaps we could improve the sub-category and searching so that if you search Asian and Bareback, torrents that are tagged in some manner with both categories would come up?

Also, possibly make it so that the edit page also allows you to add, remove, or change sub-categories.

It just goes to show that copyright trolls will stop at nothing to try to extort money from the people… It makes me very glad that I take a higher level of anonymity on the internet these days.

About the only other thing that I could suggest would be something similar to what I have setup. If you have another machine, or if you get a little NAS box, you can leave all the adult content stored on the NAS across the network. This ensures that local file browsing will turn up nothing, as all the content would be stored on the NAS itself, rather than your computer locally.
