and what is worse i got a system generated message saying i am not seeding it- when clearly it is!

and i never get an answer why

why do i bother trying to add to this site?

why should i share if this site has so many glitches it's not worth it

i uploaded a big torrent but the site doesnt seem to know it- and doesnt know i am seeding others- LOOK!!

and what is worse i get this:

Dear xavrin,

You are not seeding your upload [Men] Tom Faulk- Part 2 of 2 (Cumplete HD-High Collection)

We appreciate your recent upload and want to help you get this torrent started, so that others can enjoy the files and you can get the maximum upload credit!

@Speedmaster8:

What most people ( especially new users @ GTru ) mostly never think of is the difference betweeen "open tracker" and "private tracker". To join in to an "open tracker", you don't have to be registered. You just download the torrent and start leeching/seeding. The "open tracker" doesn't care about your ratio and the "jump and run" mentality of some users is a great way for decent sharer to raise up their own ratio very quickly and the good and the bad sharer never have to worry about it.

The contrast is a "private tracker", like GTru and especially because we have a rationator here as well. I would say, that we don't really have any "jump and run" users here, because if they are some, they are pretty quick disabled, because of their bad ratio. So we actually are ALL good sharers here, which results to less upload from each user @ GTru.

Remembering this, you will come to the conclusion, that it IS much more difficult, to have a good ratio when you are new here @ GTru… but during the time, you are getting used to the rules, become a good seeder and the ratio will raise up, even with a very slow connection, because you will CARE about it and don't ruin the community with a jump-and-run mentality. You will understand that sharing isn't meant by grabbing all as soon as possible and only give back a tiny little percentage of it back, but at least 0,5 times of what you actually downloaded from others, best is 1,0 and 1,5 times will give you a small buffer for the next torrents you desire. You might not like the idea of downloading stuff, which you aren't interested in, just because there are a lot of leechers and you might increase your ratio with such unwanted stuff and the final result will be, that your buffer increases as well for your next torrents, you may even reach some goals with that unwanted stuff in your account, so that your limits will increase to download more and more torrents a day. And if you would like to reach such goals a bit faster, you upload torrents yourself, probably even something, that you don't really like, but what will probably attract a lot of leechers.

... WoW !!! That sounds pretty easy and that all sounds as well like a nice community, where users SHARE and don't only think of their own needs... well yes... it IS pretty easy and this is why I am a longterm member here @GT ru. ^^

The torrents I uploaded myself constantly have the trackers go offline- so saying i won't share is ridiculous- look at the screen shot-
this happens ALL THE TIME- GT.RU tracker goes offline- NO other site (and THEY ARE ALL PRIVATE!!!) has this problem...

No one ever says WHY only gt.ru has ALL THESE ISSUES?
EVERY site I use has private trackers and as one can see if they look at the screen shot, my connections are fine
Hello?

@SemenDemon:

It appears to be a site-wide problem. Just be patient. I think it's affecting all, most, or at least many users.

feels like it happens all the time, though. a few years ago it happened, but only rarely- again it was just gt.ru even then.

just curious WHY?

is it the country the server is located in?  what is it about this site that is different from others- location, hardware?

i am NOT a computer geek, so i would love it if someone explained it a little bit- as if they were talking to a smart collie, not an IT …LOL 

for me it seems the "improvements" have made it more regularly offline- a couple years ago I don't remember this happening almost every day…

I got my low ratio up by posting and uploading awesome HUGE torrents. usually as soon as a couple people get 100% i rarely get that torrent to go much farther than a 1.5 amount.
the main issue for me is not the ratio- but the fact that the tracker goes off constantly on gt.ru and no other sites- they work fine all the time- gtn and ourgt, whatever- even pirate and kickass.  the only one that goes RED regularly is this site.

i kind of wish the help desk would just say "i don't know" instead of advising preference changes or making adjustments to the torrent client THAT I ALREADY HAVE SET CORRECTLY.

so WHY does this site regularly have the tracker go offline? it is NOT my provider, or my settings, because NO OTHER SITE HAS THIS ISSUE- and they are all PRIVATE as well

pretty much happens regularly with only this site- the help desk tries and is friendly- but it still happens only here.
i like this site, and am grateful.
it's just annoying when i AM SEEDING to peers, but it isn't accumulated and says 0 when i can SEE IT SEEDING on my utorrent.
all the gt.ru's go red all the time, no other sites. so the site has some kind of issue with it's tracker
a few years ago this RARELY HAPPENED- now it happens ALL THE TIME

 forum spamming

pretty much every day at some point, the seeding torrents i have go "offline"- sometimes it repairs right away if i MANUALLY update tracker.
today it's just not repairing- all morning, even manually updating.
it is NOT any "preference" i have my utorrent set to because other sites do not do this- and the help desk advice was adhered to already anyway…?
see screen shot- both the 2 i just tried downloading and the seeding just don't track, while two other sites have no issues- ever...?

also- i am actually CONNECTED TO PEERS and the seed is not being accumulated- so it's basically "free seed" lol

AGAIN- NO OTHER SITES DO THIS!

and when the help desk is alerted, they usually respond that it's my settings- but my settings are what they recommend- here is an example today:

goes offline by itself randomly
trackers need manual update- green and blue turn brown/red randomly

if the other torrent sites i used did this even occasionally i would wonder if it was my settings or computer- but it is only gt.ru…

i keep seeing how improvements are being made, but i don't see anything work better...

i sound ungrateful maybe, but it's just annoying  ???

i have a tablet and a laptop.  the laptop is where i upload torrents since that isnt even an option on my tablet.
anyways, the box for auto update and update to beta- they are both disabled already…the random port is also disabled...

and it is just gt.ru this happens with- as pictured here

i don't know jack about utorrent- i just download the newest one whenever i get a computer- i dont switch anything or change the preferences other than the visual stuff.
if there is a way to make it more efficient, i would appreciate your feedback on HOW to do this…

but utorrent shows otherwise…

oh look- my torrents seem to have disappeared…?

and the Help response is usually- everything looks fine- when if you LOOK AT THE PICTURES you'll see it isnt

once again- the site shows me with ZERO seeding torrents, when actually i have 7 seeding, including a new upload that is seeding at about 250kBs

happens all the time with gt.ru- even more since the "improvements" were made
