I need clarifications regarding rules 2 (Duplicate)
Rule 2) Do I understand it correctly that if I download a torrent from this site and re-encode it in h265 and the difference in size is >10% it wouldn't be considered a duplicate?
YES that is correct, BUT you MUST PUT "x265 HEVC" in the torrent title, to differentiate it from the original, and ALSO to caution members that they will need a FAST, relatively NEW computer, in order to play your re-encoded video. I will also point out that typical settings for HEVC encoding should result in a file that's about HALF the size of the original, if you've used the correct settings.
I need clarifications regarding rules 5 (Multiple torrents).
Rule 5) If multiple torrents are uploaded simultaneously "they MUST be completed within 24 hours". Does "completed" mean that at least 1 person has to download to 100%?
Some confusion regarding this question, since your question suggests BREAKING THE RULES by uploading MORE THAN ONE TORRENT AT A TIME.
The rules say YOU SHOULD ONLY UPLOAD ONE TORRENT AT A TIME.
Then… you seed this uploaded torrent, and wait until at least three other members have finished downloading it... before moving on to uploading your next torrent. This insures quick uploading of what you're sharing, and minimizes frustrations at the downloader's end.

qbittorent is incompatable with our site, and causes nothing but problems for our members
I suggest you switch to the classic version of uTorrent.
It's faster and more stable than all the later versions of uTorrent, and, by using uTorrent, you would be able to use our QTM program to automate any torrent uploads you might like to do, in the future!
Here's the link to download uTorrent, with full instructions and links:

If you changed one or more of the files in a collection, it won't match what's on the site.
So just the portions of the torrent (on your hard drive) that still match the original collection of files within the original torrent could start seeding OK.
Also, I've found that if there's a very new torrent containing many files, and I download just a few of them, my upload ratio on that torrent will be very large. I was in "ratio basement" a while back after a disk crash, and this saved me.
YES, but this torrent, being only partially downloaded (IE FILES SKIPPED) will FOREVER stay in your "Leeching Torrents" list, tying up one more of your download slots… forever.
Here's the link to the forum topic that explains WHY this is, and how to remedy it:

If this happens again, please write the helpdesk.
Staff doesn't regularly monitor the forum.
There was a multiple-account cheater in that VPN group you were using, and you got warned, along with him, accidentally; sorry about that.
I've just now reversed that error, and removed the Warned Status from your account.
It's POSSIBLE that you may need to download a little something in order to regenerate your passkey (announce URL). If that's the case, older torrents you wish to continue to seed will need to have properties set with the NEW passkey. PM me if you need advice / need to know how to do that.
Thanks for your understanding!

its working now
i read and follwed the forum advice a few days ago and it wasnt working so maybe it was my computer doing something i wasnt aware of during an update but i have update disabled.
ive donated here and to other sites...i think i follow the novel of rules. im constantly reading to use ru
no one wants to ask a random stranger for porn DL advice.at least i dont lol
assuming its not fun answering questions when you work in IT and have more knowledge that most using this site..
either way we are the ones storing & sharing everything so would be cool if it was a bit more user friendly.
ive never contacted admin in my life for any other torrent site but this one has a lot of content that others dont.
:cheers:
You bet!!!
"only the finest" indeed!!!! :cheesy2:
I'm wondering what makes a torrent show up as new on the Search and Browse pages, but actually it's been here for a while and they're being re-announced with the recycling logo.
This is usually a staff function, done when a staff member notices there are reseed requests going up on a certain dead or almost dead torrent. (There may be situations where the site system does this automatically, but to be honest, I'm drawing a mental blank on whether or not this situation exists; fuzzy memory, :cheesy2: so sorry)
Speaking for myself, when handling these situations that arise, I may generate ANOTHER reseed request, then follow with making the torrent freeleech, then "promote" the torrent, moving it to the top of the public list, which then adds the "Recycled symbol" at the head of the torrent name.
On RARE OCCASIONS (note that we really don't encourage this, but we DO make friendly exceptions), we may honor a request by a member made via PM (and rarer still, via the helpdesk, but we really hate getting asked to do this in the helpdesk, ok?) and will help a member out, when the situation is justified (by researching the torrent status / history) and promote a torrent when requested (and maybe add those two other actions mentioned above)
Sorry, this function is NOT available to members, LOL, and I'm thinking you might have been hoping it would be, based on your OP. 
Take care,

We frequently get complaints at the helpdesk where members say they've only received partial or NO upload credit, for their newly uploaded torrent (which has already been successfully downloaded by other members).
Here's a few possibilities that may explain why this has occured:
Are you seeding via a proxy? That won't work, for earning upload (seeding) credit.
If not, have you checked your port forwarding is set up correctly? Here's some tools for checking that:
https://www.google.com/search?q=check+port+forwarding
When seeding, your Internet connection / torrent program / IP connection / seeding must remain ON and UNCHANGED, for long periods of time, to earn upload credit, as your torrent program is only permitted to report uploaded data quantities back to our tracker server every 30 minutes… and any change in the "ON and UNCHANGED" status will reset this 30 minute counter for reporting, while resulting in lost tallies of previously uploaded data quantities.
NON-STANDARD torrenting programs may cause this problem, too. We recommend using "uTorrent Classic", if at all possible.
Here's a link to facilitate that: https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/9055/utorrent-how-to-downgrade-or-fresh-install-classic-version-2-2-1-build-25302
We don't have any tools at our end to detect computer / torrent program / modem / router configuration problems at your end, so please don't ask us about that; sorry about that!

A couple things to keep in mind here at GTRU:
Torrent popularity here is VERY SHORT LIVED; usually not more than a few days. If you REALLY want to take a competitive approach to try and improve your ratio, you'd constantly REFRESH the Torrent Search function, and find only BRAND NEW torrents that have JUST BEEN UPLOADED, that you think will become popular torrents… and download only THOSE torrents in the first minutes of being offered here.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
CONCERNS about FreeLeech torrents that you should keep in mind:
Happy Torrenting!! :love:

Run a checksum on the single file BEFORE you create the torrent…. record that number.
AFTER you create the torrent for this single file, run another checksum on that single file.
Did the checksums match?
And are you using a standard western font, when you name the file?
Good "process-of-elimination" work on your part, BTW.
Take care,
Pawpcorn
Well, SOMETHING got changed (file name?) or it would have checked to 100%.
Time for you to put your detective hat on!
Good luck!
Pawpcorn
yes, same for me;
I've reported this to the sysop

At the helpdesk, we frequently get asked this question, in varying forms… TODAY'S EXAMPLE:
"I used the QuickTorrentMaker to upload a folder. All the steps work well until the upload stage / it gets stuck at "connecting to peers 99.8%"."
This member missed the actual nuanced sequence of events that during the re-download of the uploaded torrent file, his torrent client could only CHECK the downloaded torrent file to 99.8%, because the file contents on his computer no longer matched the contents of the original torrent file.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . SOLUTION: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
This 99.9% check problem is actually due to your not showing system files in your windows explorer, then inadvertently including a certain system file in the torrent you created....
So when you created the .torrent file, you included the (hidden for you) "thumbs.db" system file... which windows very frequently modifies, making the .torrent file invalid, as the contents of torrent have been changed after creation.
SOLUTION:
Set windows to show system files
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14201/windows-show-hidden-files
(If possible) Add the thumbs.db file to the "skip files" box of the "Create New Torrent" dialog box (in the case of using the uTorrent torrent client, for example).
…then delete the earlier-created and uploaded .torrent file on your PC and delete your earlier uploaded torrent presentation on the GTRU website...
...then create a NEW torrent file, MAKING SURE NO "thumbs.db" SYSTEM FILE GETS INCLUDED THIS TIME,
...then again upload a new torrent presentation, with the NEW .torrent file, which upon re-downloading should check to 100%, and start seeding correctly.
Good Luck!

just 0.5 bonus point regardless of how many torrents you're seeding.
