I use uTorrent 2.2.1 and have no issues overall, except when the site is overloaded.

I don't use Firefox.

Seedboxes tend to be the best way to do torrenting if you do a lot of traffic.

I'm not a programmer or anything like that, so I can only give vague answers as I understand the situation.

The threads/posts that disappeared still exist in some form, as they can still be seen on user pages.

Until we find the problem, which is the main thing on the agenda, there's really no sense to try to restore the threads/posts as it could happen again because the problem was never fixed.

How do you measure your anniversaries?

For us, we don't count the nearly 3 years of dating.  Our anniversary is based on when we moved in together.

While we also have a Civil partnership and Marriage, we mostly ignore these.

When you fall below the minimum ration you lose your download rights.  HOWEVER, we give you XX amount of days "grace period" to raise your ratio before that happens.

I can't give specifics because it's based on variables such as download amount, account age, etc., so everyone's account will be at a different point.

If anyone is having problems with their ratio, contact the Helpdesk and one of our mods will help you out.

At this point, it's unknown what happened.

We are keeping an eye on site/member security, as it's always our #1 priority.

I don't know if it's directly linked, but it happened about the same time several issues popped up in the software.

The site owner's 1st priority is to site/member safety.

Site performance and bug fixes are secondary.  Sadly, whatever is causing this large set of issues seems to be a bitch to track down.

@flissff:

A further thought on this: I can exchange seed bonus points for uploaded GB. If I were able to exchange uploaded GB to seed bonus points, I could make more torrents freeleech! :crazy2: :crazy2:

Very odd request.

I think you're the first person to ask for that.

I use freeleech to revive torrents.

Any torrent in my seeding list that has less than 5 seeders I make freeleech.

I'd like to add in that quite often if you already have the 1st warning, but go a long time before getting a 2nd warning we usually tend to treat that as a new 1st warning.

Of course, there are variables, such as how bad the infractions were/are, did you apologize, etc, etc.

Everyone has a PMS day now and again and we understand that.

A black female state Senator wants to end Arkansas' "stand your ground" laws, aka right to self-defense.

Her claim is that "too many black boys and men" are being killed during the commission of crimes because people are allowed to defend themselves and their property against criminals.

This reminds me of the black woman city councilor in Philadelphia who pushed a bill that would ban bulletproof glass in shops because it was racist against blacks.  The Asian shop owner's group claimed she was pushing genocide on them with the ban.

Non-citizens still can't vote in federal elections (at least not yet), but allowing them to vote in local elections is gaining in popularity in liberal areas.

House Democrats voted in favor of allowing illegals, specifically, to vote in elections just 6 months after the House voted against allowing illegals to vote in any level of US elections.

South Carolina mayor screams hate crime.

Get's police to investigate, but they said it was just pollen.

She refuses to believe it's just pollen get's state police hate crimes unit to investigate and they say it's pollen.

She still refuses to believe it's just pollen.

State crime lab says it's pollen.

She still refuses to believe it's pollen.

@fredfranco:

Mexicans have nothing to hide. They enter the US illegally because they're denied visas and that can happen for many reasons: The applicant seems to be to poor enter the US as a tourist. The applicant is believed to already have family within the country, which means he may be planning to stay…Work visa/permit, on the other hand, is even harder to get. It depends on labor demand, if the applicant's education fulfills the current demand, if the they've got an employment contract prior to applying...As you see, there are many reasons why an immigrant has their entrance denied other than a criminal record.

Regardless, they are entering the US illegally.

Mexico has immigration laws that they enforce, so why can't the US enforce its immigration laws.

For some reason, everyone thinks that the 1st world countries of the world must have open borders, while non-first world countries can do as they like.

One thing that really bothers me is seeing illegals waving the flag of their home country, but get butt hurt when they get deported to their beloved home country.

We also saw that illegal chick snatch the guy's MAGA hat and refuse to give it back to him.  During the altercation, she said "fuck your laws and fuck the United States".  This was in California, where she was getting subsidized by the taxpayers for her college education, but as she said, fuck them.

More recently, an illegal woman (now being deported) harassed a guy in a MAGA hat in a restaurant.  She's willing to violate his right to free speech, even though she's in the country illegally.  Illegals have been empowered to violate US laws and they think it's their right.

Similar things happen in all first world countries.

Already discussed in the General News section.

Oh yeah, and since the NGD will mean open borders and paying for people that refuse to work, the costs will skyrocket.

Obama overspent by $2.5 (ish)  Trillion per year.

AOC wants to overspend by at least $10 Trillion per year, just for her NGD alone.

FROM MEMORY,  one of the killers said it was a drug deal gone bad.

There was a lot of speculation that it was a gay "thing" that went "bad".  This came from the usual homophobes trying to deflect from it being a hate crime.

Jim Acosta is a whiny bitch.

He's not a journalist, because he makes the story about himself, instead of just reporting the actual news.

Not counting all the normal taxes we have to pay, the NGD will cost taxpayers $100 Trillion per decade.

The US is already $22 Trillion in debt, with $20 Trillion of that thanks to Obama's spending.

That's his son, pro wrestler "Jungle Boy" Nate Coy.
