Big time hoarder here. I've not watched some titles for years but can't let go of them. I know that's kind of a psychological disorder but I can't help. :crazy2:

Earned seed point bonus is flat rate of 1 point every 2 hours… whether seeding 1 torrent or 100 torrents.

Thank you for your response. This is quite strange because I feel that I have earned so many Seed Points Bonus over the years because I try to keep at least 6 files seeding all the time here. I always thought that seeding each file will earn me 0.5pts every hour? I feel that there is no point of me seeding the other files anymore

Anyway, thanks for clarifying the situation.

I had the same impression that you got points for every file seeded. I wonder if thats a recent change or if ive just be mistaken this whole time. It does take away incentive to seed miltiple files which other folks may want but if you only get credit for one why would anyone seed more than one. My ratio is fine so i dont even ned to seed to keep that up.

I was also under the same impression. Yes, you only get 0.5 bonus points, irrespective of the number of torrents being uploaded at any given time. As Popper said, upping multiple torrents does affect your ratio. Say you're upping six torrents and have upped around 1 GB in an hour, you will get the corresponding uptick in your ratio. Still, I also don't like the miserly 0.5 bonus points per hour. It should at least be 1/hr

Roughing up is good some times. :cheesy2:

Yum!

I love me some scruff 

If asking anal then around 15-16 and I'm 31. A super low number for me at least :cry2: :cry2: :cry2:

Can't compare apples to oranges. For gays like us, the female body has no charm. Pure straight guys may think the same about male bodies.

Yes, I've played out all scenarios. In my dreams! :cry2: :cry2: :cry2:

What's the real deal? There are literally thousands of torrents of practically every studio/genre. Why is that some torrents are quickly taken down while others stay there for years? I can't believe other studios don't use the DMCA and associated features. What's the real philosophy here? One can't find MuscleBearPorn or StudFist videos, for example, and these are not major studios either. Hot House Club Inferno, Lucas, MEN and dozens of other big shots' videos are easily available. What gives?

What you should understand is that when torrents are taken down it because the site has been issued a legal notification alleged copyright infringement, such notice containing the needed information to prove that the torrent in question is their legal property.  The site does notify the uploader of the notice and gives the uploader an opportunity to refute this claim, in which case the torrent is (if the uploader sends the needed proof that the torrent in question actually belongs to them) then put back up so other members can again download.

Failing to get confirmation from the member who uploaded the torrent in the first place that it is their legal property, the site has no option but to remove the material in question.  Failing to do so can result in the site being sued along with the member who uploaded the material.  The end result would be that the site would end up being sued out of existence, resulting in all torrents no longer being available for anyone to be able to download.  I know it is frustrating when this happens (from personal experience), but I would rather loss one torrent than the entire site and I suspect you would agree with that?

Thanks for the detailed response. It does make some sense now.

Thanks. But my question was why? Torrents are illegal to begin with and we all are culprits. What's the real purpose of DMCA and stuff? I don't believe there should be any ban or taking down at all.

Ah-mazing!

The site is back but not my ratio. How to address this issue?

It's back. But my ratio remains frozen. I want my 6GB worth of ratio

It's been the same since 0500 UTC. My uploads keep seeding despite the client showing them in maroon/red. And I upped nearly 6 GB of data without a decimal point increase in my ratio. :cry2: :cry2:

Good luck.

But why don't you stop seeding if you're afraid that it won't be added to your ratio? It will be still interesting stuff when the server is back online.

I've, Mr. I had already upped that much when I realized the down time. I live in a different time zone – ahead of EU -- so was caught unaware

Use a condom or a dental dam to rim. Safer option!

Those seeding are in big trouble. I've upped 6GB of data today as a couple of torrents continued seeding despite the fiasco here and my ratio remains frozen.

@billd28971:

An earlier post stated the torrent server is down. This is why if you do a search most torrents are currently dead. Not sure if this might be what is affecting you.

I didn't notice any notification on the home page. But yes now I can see the torrent issue. My upping still continues despite this although torrent status showing red/maroon. Hoping I'll be transferred my ratio/bonus currently being withheld. Can't afford to lose over 6GB of upping 

Anyone? Same problem except my upped amount has reached 6GB. :cry2: :cry2: Besides I can't use the helpdesk or Chat as both buttons not working for me. I can enter the helpdesk and describe my problem but can't complete the task given inactivated red button at the bottom. ::)
