Depending on the video, to some extent, yes… However... Not all their videos are like that.

Also, since the topic of SBP accumulation has come up, I should point out that there are many ways that you can accumulate SBP faster. They are:

• Adding relevant pictures of good quality to existing torrents[nb]Pending the approval of a moderator. 1 SBP is awarded per picture once the pictures are approved by a moderator, therefore you may experience a delay in being awarded these points.[/nb]

• Posting meaningful, useful, relevant, or otherwise productive posts in the forum in an existing thread[nb]1 SBP is awarded per post. Posts that are deemed to be for the purpose of spamming, simply to acquire points faster, or are otherwise in violation of the rules are subject to removal (if deemed necessary) and any points earned from those posts will be reversed once reviewed by our forum admins. Repeat offenders may be subject to penalties including (but not limited to): forum warnings, system warnings, suspension from the forum, or suspension of your account.[/nb]

• Creating a new topic (thread) in the forum[nb]5 SBP per new thread in addition to the SBP awarded for the post. Posts that are deemed to be for the purpose of spamming, simply to acquire points faster, or are otherwise in violation of the rules are subject to removal (if deemed necessary) and any points earned from those posts will be reversed once reviewed by our forum admins. Repeat offenders may be subject to penalties including (but not limited to): forum warnings, system warnings, suspension from the forum, or suspension of your account.[/nb]

• Reporting a valid duplicate torrent[nb]Report a torrent as a duplicate by clicking the "Report" link at the bottom of the torrent page OF THE DUPLICATE TORRENT. You will be asked for the link or id hash of the ORIGINAL torrent.[/nb][nb]Duplicate torrent reports are subject to the review of a moderator. If/when the report is confirmed by a moderator, you will be awarded 50 SBP.[/nb]

• Voting for categories on torrents you have downloaded.[nb]2 SBP is awarded per vote, regardless of how many categories you vote for. You may vote for up to 5 categories per torrent.[/nb]

• Seeding one or more torrents continuously.[nb]You are awarded 0.5 SBP per hour that you have one or more torrents seeding. This is a flat rate, regardless of how many torrents that you have seeding.[/nb]

• Uploading a new torrent through the FTUP[nb]Additional SBP can be awarded if a user clicks the "Thank You" button and adds SBP to their thanks. This however is up to each user, and is not a guarantee that you will get additional thanks.[/nb][nb]Uploading ANY new torrent (not just your first) can also get you SBP through the "Thank You" option on the torrent info page.[/nb]

It looks like your port that your torrent client uses is randomised. I think this is the biggest part of your problem. See, you need to have the port that your torrent client uses forwarded through from your router (often built into your modem) both in TCP and UDP in order to receive incoming connections. So… You need to pick ONE port and forward that port through to your computer. I'm not familiar with your particular IISP (provider - who I will not mention here for privacy reasons), or whether they offer connections on the DSL, cCable, or rCable platforms, (if I'm not mistaken, your area is under rCable territory), or even what hardware they provide you with your service, but if you PM me, I can work with you to get that port forwarding setup.

Also, just a heads up... If you're on the rCable platform, rather than bDSL, I would strongly recommend checking into your modem make/model to see if it is the Intel Puma 6 (or even Intel Puma 7) chipset, or if it is the Broadcom chipset. If you're on the cable platform and you're using a cable modem that uses the Intel Puma 6 or Intel Puma 7 chipset, I strongly recommend that for stability and optimal performance that you bridge the modem by turning off the "Residential Gateway" feature, then connect an external third-party wireless router to your modem to run your connection as these Intel chipsets are rather famous for their performance issues, and can even cause issues such as the one you are describing, dropped packets, random erratic latency spikes (even at non-peak hours), and in some cases, can even cause intermittent connectivity issues when the packet, usually when the packet is passing through the last-mile rCable platform to route into your IISP.... Just a heads up.

I know this all too well from personal experience with the equipment on the cable platforms in your area. Hopefully, you're either on the rCable platform with a Broadcom based modem, or even better for this purpose, would be piggybacking off the bDSL platfor to get a link into your IISP.

The OP said that it was "Offline (Timed Out)"… This is a common error...

However, if the torrent was removed by DMCA or because it was a duplicate, the tracker error will show "Failure: Unregistered Torrent" instead.

There are any number of things that can cause this. The best way to find out exactly what it is and how to work with it is to click on the torrent in uTorrent, then click on the "Trackers" tab to see what the status message shows at. This will give you a better idea of what exactly is going on. If it's a matter of not connecting to the tracker, you can try disabling the SSL tracker by clicking the "Profile΅ tab at the top of the page and changing the SSL option. Please note that this requires either redownloading the .torrent file, or manually changing the beginning of the tracker URL to one of the following beginnings:

SSL Tracker
https://tracker.gaytorrent.ru/

Normal Tracker
http://tracker.gaytorrent.tw:2710/

Have you by chance tried Go!Zilla by any chance?

If you're worried about copyright trolls, or about possible legal consequences, I would strongly recommend the use of a VPN service such as PrivateVPN to hide your real IP address and location from being sniffed out.

Most of, if not all of the Treasure Island Media collection is unscripted. They just go in with the cameras and let the chemistry fly, without any set agenda.

It's one of the things I like about them.

The generally accepted practice is to seed an upload until there are at least 3 - 4 other seeders who can help seed it.

FWIW, if you're looking for a good VPN that works well with GT.ru, I would recommend PrivateVPN. They're based out of Sweden and I have been using them for a while now with GT.ru now without any problems. There's a couple things to note however. Using OpenVPN, there are two ways to connect… Either TAP or TUN. Normally, I recommend TUN, however in order to be connectable, you need to use the TAP method with one of the following servers:

• Norway

• Germany - Frankfurt 1

• Netherlands - Amsterdam 1

• Sweden - Kista

• Sweden - Stockholm

• Switzerland

• Ukraine

• United Kingdom

If you connect using TAP to any one of the above servers, by default all ports are forwarded, which will ensure that you are connectable.

There is no limit on the total number of torrents you can upload in a lifetime at GT.ru, however there is a limit on the number of files in the torrent that the tracker will accept. I just don't recall what that limit is off hand.

@aadam101:

The thing that i hate about uploading is that once you get about 1.0 with the torrent it practically stops seeding since there are so many seeds at that point.

This is not always the case… The GT.ru tracker does not like passive nodes, and places them at the bottom of the priority list, regardless of their upload speed. So... Always be sure that the port that your torrent client uses is forwarded both in TCP and UDP from your router to your computer. This alone will go a long way.

Also, if you have a higher upload speed (say, 75KB/s), you'll get placed higher on the priority list for peers. So... Having a higher upload speed when possible does help in addition to making sure that your network is correctly setup. If using a VPN, it is important to know that you are connected correctly to the VPN and that the VPN has that port forwarded to your computer.

If connecting with an OpenVPN based VPN, you need to be using TAP, rather than TUN, otherwise, ports cannot be opened. Also, you need to make sure that the VPN has that port forwarded. Some VPN's like Private Internet Access will only forward one port that they choose, whereas a VPN like PrivateVPN will forward ALL ports as long as you're using UDP + TAP and are connecting to a port forwarding enabled server.

I know I'm chiming in a little late here, but do not get confused with regular downloads and freeleech downloads. Regular downloads will not work when your download rights have been taken, however you can download freeleech torrents, as long as you download them one at a time.

Freeleech torrents do not count towards your download total on your ratio, so they do not lower your ratio by downloading them. They do however give you upload for anything you upload on them, even while downloading them.

This is a known common issue due to the fact that our servers are sometimes overloaded with requests. You need only wait until your torrent client updates with the tracker again for this issue to fix itself.

@ArmaRayo:

It must be that Google/Android "spies" people a lot more than Microsoft/Win7/8/10 did/does.

Check out the site 'they' build in Utah - all searches, sms, emails and what not stored "forever", for our security 'they' say…

This is the precise reason why I became my own independent provider for a lot of my services, including email and DNS. I can control what does and does not work. For some of my customers, I have made my servers able to play nice with Google so that they can import their emails through my network into Google, however I made this service optional because I prefer to host and store absolutely everything across an in-house platform across several different geographical locations.

Also, I've surgically removed a lot of the Google stuff from my phone, disabled all permissions to Facebook Messenger, because their TOS allow them to spy on your device at any time they so choose, without notice if you give these permissions to Messenger so that you can video call, take pictures, make phone calls, etc… It's also the reason why I now use PrivateVPN for all my shady business online. They're fully compatible with GT.ru, as I'm currently using them for such purposes and I'm seeing upload traffic.

Just thought I'd chime in again… I have found a reasonable VPN provider... PrivateVPN. They're based in Sweden, and I can confirm that they work GREAT with GT.ru… There's only a couple of things to take note of...

1. When you click the pay buttons on the page, it will seem that the page refreshes, but that their stripe script is slow to respond. Do not be alarmed when this happens. Just wait a few more seconds, and the credit card prompt, PayPal prompt, etc. will eventually pop up.

2. If you're using Ubuntu 16.04, their Linux CLI app does not install correctly (at least not in Compiz, but I haven't tested it in Unity yet), and it can cause havoc by trying to incorrectly establish a TAP session when you login, which then cripples your internet connectivity, but nothing that cannot be fixed by deleting the .crt and .conf files from /etc/openvpn, then running the following command wont fix:

nmcli con down tap0

3. They support both TAP and TUN connections, so it's important to note a few things. As a general rule, it is recommended that you use the TUN configuration, as this comes with a more stringent firewall, which prevents resources on your local interfaces to be shared with resources on the VPN and vice versa. That being said however, for use with GT.ru or any P2P that you want to be connectable with, you need to use the TAP method, since you will need your machine's local NIC to have access to the VPN's network resources. Unless you're concerned with being connectable for P2P, it is strongly recommended for tighter security purposes that you always use the TUN method.

4. Although the TAP method will allow you to connect and reach the internet through the VPN just the same, not all of the servers have this option enabled on their end... So... Just be aware that if you're using TAP to be able to have access to incoming P2P, you want to use one of the following servers:

• Norway

• Germany - Frankfurt 1

• Netherlands - Amsterdam 1

• Sweden - Kista

• Sweden - Stockholm

• Switzerland

• Ukraine

• United Kingdom

Only these servers will enable port forwarding. Simply put, when in TAP mode on these servers, by default the firewall will forward ALL ports directly to your computer, even if you do not have the port forwarded from your router to your computer on your local network through the magic of VPN. If connecting to any of the other servers using the TAP method will render the same end-result as the TUN method on ANY of the servers…. Just keep this in mind.

Lastly, if you want assistance or more information with how to get it setup, I got it setup pretty quickly, using only the guides on their website. I've also been in touch with their customer service, and they're freaking awesome from what I've seen so far.

I strongly discourage the use of PIA… I've tried it, and I'm about to cancel my subscription. Their customer service is slower than molasses in February to respond to your inquiries, and their software leaves much to be desired. I still CANNOT get it to work correctly in Ubuntu. Not only that, but THEY tell YOU what port you must use for your torrents, and there's no way to change that. So on top of not being able to program their way out of a paper bag, if you ever need assistance for something, you had best be prepared to wait a few days for a response.

Also, on that note, I cannot recommend the use of PureVPN either. They too were a thorn in my side for some time. As is stands now, I'm looking for a decent VPN provider... YET AGAIN!

But yes.. a VPN should resolve any issues that you may be having.

EDIT: For the record, I am in the process of filing the paperwork to take PIA to court as I am writing this edit to my initial message. It seems that PIA has absolutely NO problem lying to their customers IN WRITING, then refusing to honour their word. Not only that, but their customer service from my experience is TERRIBLE, and is something you'd expect from an Indian or Chinese call centre rep who does not understand what they're doing, so being that they're an American company, they're actually an embarrassment to the United States. I cannot stress enough the importance to STAY AWAY FROM PIA!!!

I've had nothing but trouble with them so far, and there's nothing convenient or easy about their port forwarding feature. God forbid you want to run two different torrent clients, or you want to run two different things that require ports to be opened, because that's simply NOT going to happen. Not only that, but this whole waiting for god only knows how long to get an answer to your inquiry is not exactly my cup of tea. I hate to say it, but at this point in the game, PIA ranks right up there with PureVPN for garbage VPN services to STAY AWAY FROM!!! Both PureVPN and PIA lie through their teeth to gain customers, then stall them for 7 days so that they can't be refunded for their money. Once you do actually manage to get them to agree to cancel your service, they'll send you an email saying that it will remain active until the end of the billing period, but this is NOT THE CASE!! When you cancel, you cancel EVERYTHING effective IMMEDIATELY, including your login to their web portal, which quite frankly, is utterly useless.

Unless you're a technical god, neither PureVPN nor PIA are easy to setup and make use of, and both more or less require that you use their primitive software, or pay outrageous additional fees to make full use of their services. If you chose not to use their software, they simply won't care and will not support you and getting their VPN service to work.

Is there a particular error message that you're getting?

For that matter, what exactly happens when you try to sign up?

Everything but the gmail account to me sounds like your computer may have been hit with some sort of a power surge that was enough to damage some components, but not fry the entire system. If the drive in question was heavily in use, I would be inclined to think that would be why that particular drive was affected.

Did you know about the computer management console that may be able to recover the drive?

To do this, click Start, then right click "Computer", then click "Manage"… When you go to the hard drives option, I wouldn't at all be surprised to see that your drive is sitting there acknowledged by the motherboard, but registering that it hasn't yet been "activated"... If this is the case, I forget what the option is to activate it (right clicking it, and selecting the activate option I think). Once this is done, the drive should be assigned a drive letter again, but will likely give you an error when you try to access it, saying that the drive isn't formatted... If this is the case, do not panic.

Assuming that the drive in question is assigned to you would want to open an elevated command prompt first. To do this, click start, then type "cmd" (without the quotes), then either press LEFT CTRL + LEFT SHIFT + ENTER, or just the LEFT CTRL + LEFT SHIFT, and click it. Once open, run the following command:

chkdsk -r -f
(or is it chkdsk /r /f D:)?

It's been a few years since I've touched a Windows operating system, so I don't recall the exact procedure off the top of my head, but that should recover the drive, as long as it is still recognized by the BIOS, which it should be....

Also, as long as the drive still spins up without any hiccups when it's powered on, it should be acknowledged by the BIOS, even if Windows won't acknowledge that the drive has been "activated"... Just a heads up.

Hope this helps.
