Me bad …
The good news is that the referrer link may get repaired relatively soon, I cross fingers here :afr:
Another small point is that category voting is per torrent on which is voted, not per category vote. this is on purpose not to give an inventive to vote for not relevant categories. Even voting the main category again is worth while, it will increase its relevance / importance.
It seems to miss out the forum topics (5 points) and posts (1 point), as does the rationator page.
Invitations don't earn points and the referrer link is broken …
When you see in the torrent client an availability of 2.000, it means the other peers to whom it is connected share together one full copy in addition to your own full copy. However it doesn't mean that any of them got a full copy (then they would be a seeder and your client won't connect to it). Then if you quit and one of them drops off, no complete copy will be shared. therefore, if there then aren't shown multiple seeder (or seeds) in the client, you should continue to seed.
Our rules require 3 other seeds, i.e. 4 with you all together, before you can stop seeding. This is to ensure the torrent will survive once the uploader left seeding and one or the other member who has completed the download quits seeding early.
You can check on the number of seeds both in your client, that would be "0 (4)" seeds in µTorrent for you and 3 others, or on the site. Both ways are fine.
(…) During that 'scan' of the first page I regularly come across posts that have no snapshots, no descriptions, nonsense video titles and many were other members have left comments highlighting these issues direct. That's it. There is no hunting of any kind, I don't have to, they are there in full view. (...)
Comments won't get a staff attention, unless reported. Rather than make a comment about poor or wrong information, members should add comments with missing information or add pictures, and/or report the the torrent for wrong or misleading information (including pictures).
So why are so many torrents uploaded without any screen grabs? How can this happen?
Through the "[Edit this torrent]" function the uploader (the first 7 days) and staff got.
Agreed, all file names and descriptions should match the video however this is not the case and whenever I have reported it nothing changes.
File names in a torrent's file list can't be changed without a new torrent.
But because this rule is not enforced torrents are being posted regularly, everyday and are getting increasingly more in numbers.
The rule is enforced when GayTorrent.ru moderators get notice of the issue, the picture will be removed, members to add better then. Reporting is important therefore.
Regarding the longer paragraphs of rothko:
We got many members doing their first uploads, often driven by low ratio warning messages. It is already difficult to get the first own upload on a private tracker wronging (therefore the First Time Upload Program bonus points). Those hasty uploads have indeed often not rule conform presentations. Then there are two aspects…
1/ Get members to improve their upload presentations and help them doing so (your first uploads might not have the level than yours have now ...), rather than pull out the hammer and punish
2/ It is just the presentation, it can be improved. I refuse to warn members who do the most important thing: share content with the members.
The current system hasn't an option to "park" torrents with not rules conform presentations (that would be great) only two...
1/ Delete a torrent (that is what is done with torrents having issues with the content shared, e.g. alleged copyright infringement, potential under legal age models, etc...)
2/ Remove from the public access, but still track them until above 1/ (that is done for example with duplicate uploads, a practice I'm not sure if it is good, as it encourages duplicate uploads. On the other hand repeated duplicate uploads are a freeway to get set on approval)
Once set like this, the uploader lost access, too, so that isn't the right option for poor presentations.
That is limiting the possibilities in how to process those torrents which have a poor description and to my experience changing the system will take years, just because most resources are occupied to keep the site running against all odds.
Unless you activate the "Initial seeding" or "Superseeding" (naming depends on the client used) option in your torrent client for that torrent, your client will distribute some of the same part(s) of the data files to multiple of the downloading peers. that requires you to seed more than the file size so that the client has served out each part at least once and a complete copy is shared.
With above mentioned option, the client fill first serve each part only once and start to serve it multiple times once all have been served once. That "Initial" or "Superseeding" option does slow down the upload until many downloading peers are in the swarm (around 10 are needed to get good speed). It has only an advantage for uploading from members with a low upload rate, to minimize the time until a full copy is out, but it isn't good for share ratio …
As long as it is still in the GayTorrent.ru data base that you've downloaded that .torrent file (some older data were pruned), it will not count towards your 24 hours limit. Same for the download of own uploaded torrents and freeleech torrents.
What about the site page there > https://www.gaytorrent.ru/rationator.php
I've removed the forum topic referred to in the opening post, because it is partly out-dated (origins from 2007) and redundant with the Rules > https://www.gaytorrent.ru/rules.php
(…)
1. It should be made impossible to add a torrent unless a picture is included. (...)
This is enforced by the upload system
(…)
2. File names should match the video. (...)
This is rather constraining for the uploder, because many sources name files 'hash' type like and this might require the uploder to copy the file (double storage space). It is more important that title ans description give correct information what the content is IMHO
(…)
3. Snapshots should be relevant to the video. (...)
That is required by the uploading rules
(…)
If any of the 3 points above are ignored and are reported by other members then the mods should 'suspend' the torrent leaving it invisible, a message should be sent to the uploader explaining why their torrent has been suspended and what needs to change. Repeat offenders should have their accounts suspended or deleted. (...)
The issue is that many uploaders don't ever react on PMs sent by Staff to improve on these pure description issues, a side that making those uploads "invisible" will hit the wrong members, those who started downloads and won't be able to seed back, due to missing new downloading peers. We have a "punishment" for repeat "offenders" in place: set their uploads go through approval.
(…)
I never experience these problems with GT or GTN ever and I trust whatever I am downloading from their sites however it is often not always the case here in GT.ru were I have downloaded many torrents with my fingers crossed for luck.If this issue was only once in a while I wouldn't mine but is happening all the time now.
What you say here is of big concern for me, bigger than you will think from my above answers. The Uploading Rules were amended already last year to require better minimum standards.
GayTorrent.ru's moderation team faces a pure quantity issue, there are daily as many uploads as GTN has in a month. Members can help here by reporting all uploads not meeting the rules (especially wrong and/or misleading presentations), adding comments to the torrents what the shared content actually is (rather than complaining it is poor, missing, etc…) and adding good relevant picture.
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 :crazy2:
Non, µTorrent et BitTorrent sont pareil. Je n'ai pas une réponse à mes questions:
"Donc le test sous µTorrent > Options > Setup Guide > "Network" (Reseau?) test retourne une signe vert?"
"D'arranger quoi, les pairs en téléchargement manquants ou la box bleue?"
C'est difficile d'aider s'il n'y a pas des réponses clairs…
Images can contain encrypted invisible information, even executable code (fortunately picture viewers don't "execute" image data).
Some studios embed visible member information into the pictures in watermark style.
Anyway it is a bad idea to distribute movies or pictures downloaded from a side with member subscription accounts having personal use licenses only as they can contain indeed member identification information.
D'arranger quoi, les pairs en téléchargement manquants o la box bleue?
The tool handling torrents will automatically send a PM when it is accepted, but not when it is rejected by the moderator reviewing the report.
Sending a PM to the reporter to indicate the reason for which it is rejected is rather complicated and time consuming. I must admit, yesterday I've handled about 10 reports and haven't sent a PM on those 2 or 3 rejected.
Unfortunately we currently accumulate a backlog in duplicate report handling, there were 55 when I started yesterday, some a few days old. Now there are 67 …
Have you made sure to use the settings indicated there > https://forum.gaytorrent.ru/index.php?topic=16166.0 ?
QTM is designed to work with µTorrent (BitTorrent is possible, too). If you use another torrent client programme, the part where QTM got most advantage over uploading via the web form won't work. This is the automated re-download of the .torrent file and directing µTorrent to the file.
Therefore, you should follow Step 4 of the Upload Guide, the re-seed guide or the PM the system will send you 30 minutes after uploading a torrent if it isn't yet seeded.
The basic principle is to re-download the small .torrent file from GayTorrent.ru so it has your passkey in the tracker URL, adding it to your torrent client and direct the "download" to the directory wuth the file from which you've created the torrent originally.
Donc le test sous µTorrent > Options > Setup Guide > "Network" (Reseau?) test returne une signe vert?
En ce cas, ignorez la message sur fond bleu. Le problème vont être les peers en téléchargement (download) qu'il manque sur les torrents que vous seedez.
You've made all the settings indicated there > https://forum.gaytorrent.ru/index.php?topic=16166.0 ?
If yes, in Vuze's detailed view of the torrent, under trackers tab, the line with the tracker announce URL it says what under status?
No. Actually that was about a search version reverted back to the behaviour described in the original post of that topic.
I've removed that last post, as it was misleading, now.
Yes, you are right about letter combinations (that is why I used "strings" and not "words").
The search doesn't omit the word and
Quotes for exact expression don't work either.
In the given example, I'd had searched in this order:
"Antonio Biaggi Owen Powers"
"Antonio Owen"
"Biaggi"
all without the quotes.
No, LEVI and yes canonmc all those strings must be contained somewhere in the torrent name, but not the exact words and in that order.
To explain a little:
"Fucking solo young and thinking can be bad" would match that search, because: "Fucking solo young and thinking can be bad" got all these strings.
