It works here, including my normal member test account  :afr:

@ndk04:

You can also re-upload the torrent, and then wait and see if it gets DMCA'd again. Even if it gets taken down again at some point, you'll still get points toward your share ratio for uploading and seedbonus points for seeding. Win-win.

A torrent which knowingly has been removed due to a (DMCA) takedown notice, should, in NO case, be uploaded again.

If the uploader believes the takedown was erroneous, he can make a counter notice, which may lead to courts sorting out who's right.

What you describe (30 seeding peers after only one hour) sounds rather like you re-uploaded a torrent which were removed upon and the other members had still loaded into their torrent client. If that happens, the torrent client will automatically reconnect to the torrent.

If your torrent would be a 100% duplicate, I mean with that same hash, than an existing torrent (dead or not), the upload script won't allow the upload. If it is for the same file(s), but got a different has, the system won't recognise and let it pass.

Having someone seed more than 1 GB in an hour requires ~290 KB/s upload rate. That is possible for seedbox owners. They could indeed jump-on a torrent if they have the file from somewhere else, using the re-seed procedure(s).

I think jumping-on an initial seed, while it is seeded, is unfair.

However, jumping-on an abandoned initial seed or an old dead torrent or a reseed requested torrent is welcome.

It is extremely difficult to monitor jump-ons and determine what case it is, because that would require real time surveillance of all torrents, simply next to impossible with reasonable system resources.

I've had downloaded the file in your second post "Load more trackers for the torrent: …" and that torrent's tracker URLs had all, except one, a passkey.

So again, if that is your torrent and are your passkeys, you should reset them at the respective tracker's site.

Please stop reposting links to other trackers torrents. Our forum is not an index for .torrent files.

I'm not sure if that are your passkeys in that torrent, but if yes, you should reset them urgently or others will download at your dispense.

Units here are powers of two:
1 KB = 1024 bytes
1 MB = 1024 KB
1 GB = 1024 MB
1 TB = 1024 GB

So 0.98 TB * 1024 GB/TB = ~1004 GB. Actually the upload and download is stored in bytes and displayed rounded.

That is the way how Microsoft Windows uses units, but using KiB, MiB, GiB and TiB would be correct and avoid confusion with decimal system based units (as used by storage device manufacturers).

Your torrent client will have to announce to the tracker that it has completed the download.

If you direct immediately, when adding the torrent to your client, the download to the file you already have, then the client won't start (trying) to download, so won't send a having completed event to the tracker. It will start seeding immediately.

When I look now, nearly all torrents you seed got zero downloading peers.

And the few which got 1 or two downloading peers got multiple files, except 1. So it will most likely be "phantom" downloading peers, having selected not to get all files and seeding all they wanted. The tracker just has to show thm as downloading peers, because they can't be seeds (which need to have all files).

Conclusion: It looks like missing demand. no download = no upload.

That torrent was deleted due to some issues by a moderator. I wonder what that may have been exactly, but need to trust the other moderator knew what he's doing and why.

If it still shows on your other computer, it might be due to the browser cache?

You might want to install on your PC a sans serif font which supports a wider range of characters and chose that as your browsers default. That won't help on search, though…

Seen the original and duplicate, I'd say it is the way you search. With the name of the movie only, searched in all categories (means non checked) and all title, description and torrent file name (all checked), you should have got returned two results.

See our guide > https://www.gaytorrent.ru/uploadguide.php#500

Your last upload was moved away from the visible listings for being a duplicate to another existing torrent. That explains why you can't see it but QTM refuses the upload, because the torrent is still there at the moment. It will be deleted once no more downloading peer is seen.

You should have got a PM about that duplicate, that is automated once a moderator confirms the duplicate report.

The sign in the bottom right hand corner isn't a real connectivity check. It just means µTorrent receives incoming connections, which may be due to previously opened ports by outgoing connections made from µTorrent (they stay open a little while).

I don't have a Mac at hand, but when I've looked on µTorrent for Mac in a Apple Store, the User Interface was very similar to the Windows version. The only difference I've seen on a first glance was the file navigation using the Mac OSX file "Finder" and not the Windows file explorer (of course).

So I would still expect the "Network" test being under µTorrent > Options > Setup Guide and the port used to connect in the µTorrent < Options < Preferences > Connection menu. It is the port set there you'll need to make sure the Mac OSX firewall allows incoming connections.

• Single movie/clip torrent part of collection(s) or taken out

That is a condition under which "duplicate" files shared by a torrent are allowed as said in my original post.

The first part is correct "a system response [Remark: i.e. sending the PMs] to a member initiating a reseed request"

the second isn't what I tried to explain. If staff initiates a reseed request, it looks exactly like any other member did it.

We have a system (some script) which itself selects and promotes torrents. In that case there isn't any member or staff having initiated the reseed request, but the system sends them out on its own.

Those torrents are not too well seed and usually rather old. So once they pop-up on the top of the list, impatient members may ask for reseed to get the download faster. Or the last seeder(s) isn't seeding 24/7 and that provokes  reseed requests by members.

@LEVI:

(…)  Unless, for hostage reasons.  :crazy2:

Can you explain a little more what you mean with that?

IMHO that indication was made to give information weather the requester is a good sharing member or not. That PM text hasn't changed since ever I'm a member here (2008) and never provoked any issue.

The lower older in the picture is sent when the system auto promoted the torrent to the top of the list.

The system promotes only torrents which are seeded at the moment it does looking for a torrent to promote. However, though there is one or a few seeds, they might upload slowly or drop off.

The upper newer in the picture was initiated by a member, who wants to download the file or get it faster. You see the members nick name (user name) in that message.

That is inherent to the bittorrent protocol. The client announces to the tracker how much it has left to download from the complete file size and if a peer chooses not to get all, he's always left a part.

There is no information communicated to the tracker which of the files were completed or chosen to be downloaded (only).

Then seeds can be only peers who got all files, so a tracker will put those having completed the download of some files in the only other group of peers, i.e. downloading peers.

I've seen somewhere that there is (was) a protocol extension proposal to address that, but don't know any tracker (or client) having implement it.

@__rothko__: I've said earlier "What you say here is of big concern for me, bigger than you will think from my above answers."

and

"For my part, I've to see how the internal processes can be improved, so that the new uploaders get helped to improve and those not learning get send to upload approval (earlier and systematically).

and we will require more active staff "

We have rather low minimum requirements defined by the rules (basically one good related picture and title/description not being wrong or misleading, aside special requirements for collections and LGTBQ themed movies) and it is really a concern that we fail to even enforce these.

Your topic is a nudge for me to put more focus on getting more active moderators and improving /streamlining processes. I ensure you it is and will be continued to be worked on. Only don't expect visible changes the next few days.

All members can really help in reporting not rule conform torrent presentations. What then will happen next is:

• A moderator will handle the report, remove wrong or misleading information (including pictures)
• The moderator might add information from the comments or supplied with the report
• Then give the uploader a PM to improve the presentation

The uploader will have full 7 days (this might be felt too long…) from the upload date, i.e. the time he's able to edit the torrent presentation, to improve it.

What happens after these 7 days isn't well defined. That has to be done, clearly. Here could help user comments on what the shared files are (rather than comments complaining about bad presentation) and members adding pictures. It isn't only an uploader issue, all members can help especially those who have downloaded the torrent's files despite the lacking presentation.

Sorry, i can't reproduce what you are saying…
If I search for "so you think you can fuck" without the quotes in torrent name, I get two results only
If I search for "so you think you can fuck" without the quotes in both torrent name and torrent description, I get nearly 1300 results. That is correct, because "so", "you", "can", "think" and "fuck" are rather common words & strings being present in many descriptions' texts
