Thank you, guys ! This is exactly the definition I wanted to know. cheerio! Steven

With restarted, you mean restarted the computer. If not try that. I am still thinking what to try next … Update: With that change of ISP, did you change the internet security suite, i.e. to the ISP bundle including Norton? With the changed DNS setting, can you retry the ping, what does it give? Still time out?

This is a typical issue with µTorrent 3.4.1 builds and as far as we see not limited to GayTorrent.ru. At the moment the best would be you downgrade to version 3.3.10, 2.2.1 or try the latest stable build of µTorrent 3.4.1, which might include a solution for this issue.

I have no idea how that happened at all, I've never been in that option before? It worked and I have lit a candle in your honour! :cheesy2: @Popper: You must have changed a default download behaviour setting of Firefox for files with the extension .torrent … In Firefox > Tools > Options > Applications > in the list with file endings, change select "use other" for files with .torrent and then select µTorrent from the list of applications (instead of "save")

DHT, Local Peer Discovery and Peer Exchange not being allowed is normal. This is a private tracker which is for peers from the tracker only. The "updating" to continue isn't normal, though. That can have multiple reasons. First thing to try is to stop the torrent, wait a minute and then restart it in your µTorrent. It might as well help, if you upgrade or downgrade your µTorrent in case you use the version 3.3.20 or 3.4.1 to other builds of 3.4.1 or to 3.3.10. These two versions show random issues with a few torrents. Or if you use an early version of µTorrent 3.x series, upgrade at least to 3.3.10 . If that doesn't help, contact the Helpdesk indicating the link to the torrent's page on GayTorrent.ru . When you are longer member and got higher download and a good share ratio (means high upload) the daily number of .torrent file will increase quite fast.

Thanks for the feedback. Good to know the solution in case other members have such an issue.

thanks, popper - I've forgotten what happened here but I will research my files

You can find how to improve your ration in the final part of the Rationar page ("Maintaining a Good Share Ratio"). Seed downloads to earn upload credit (newer torrents = more traffic) Seed downloads to earn 0.5 seed bonus points per hour (exchange for upload credit) Reseed older torrent requests with only one/zero seeders to earn upload credit. This means redownload .torrent file and point toward file on hard drive. Upload new torrents to earn upload credit when others download. This is possible even with download rights suspended Upload new torrents to receive thank you seed bonus points gifted from other members Download and seed freeleech torrents. This costs no download amount and gives you upload credit on these heavy traffic torrents Vote category on completed downloads to earn 2 seed bonus points per vote Search for duplicate torrents and earn 50 seed bonus points per confirmed report. Submit pictures for torrents with < 10 total photos to earn 1 point per approved picture Post your personal affiliate membership link to other areas of the internet or send to friends. You will earn 250 seed bonus points per new user. Power Users can invite new members for 2 GB upload credit per new invite Make donation for upload credit (helps us pay server costs)

The Torrent Moderators have as first priority task to help uploaders of unseed new torrents to get them seed. Unfortunately not with a high success rate. Despite the efforts, we "loose" about 1/3 of all uploads as never being seed. There are only very few new torrents which are started to be seed, but then not completed. These less than 1% have a very special follow-up. So those members who try to upload, but don't get it seed at all, at least try to upload and don't do much harm (a .torrent file deducted from the daily limit of member who should be aware that he risk the seeding won't start), which is more than the majority of members do. GayTorrent.ru is set-up in a way that many members who won't upload on other trackers will try it here for the first time, so we must try to teach them how that works. Members could help in this task by making pictured upload guides for different torrent clients. For example Transmission on Mac OSX or GNU/Linux, or again Vuze with Mac OSX or GNU Linux etc … To a technical point in your post, "0 (1)" in seeds in your torrent client means there is one seed, but your torrent client isn't connected to it. "0 (0)" can appear if the torrent is queued, not started, i.e. doesn't get peers information from the GayTorrent.ru tracker or it is not seed at all. I've looked through the torrents you currently download: 3 seem to download normal 2 are uploaded by a member not stopping to add new torrents before having completed the upload of the previous. In addition not seed 24/7. He has been ask to stop adding new until the others upload is completed. Clearly that member miss the 24 hours rule when uploading more than 1 new torrent 1 is an old torrent seed only by a single member seeding hundreds of other torrents and it is difficult to get a connection to his client having other torrents in higher priority. However, he really seeds them and you can eventually complete the download. 1 is an old recycled, which had a seeder at the moment of promotion, but this seed stopped. It can get back any time. 1 only is a new torrent not seed at the moment. Here the case of being partially seed 0.7%, which looks like a wrong seeding priority setting of the uploaders torrent client programme. –--- Finally I think none of the uploaders of the torrent make it not to seed it, in opposite i think they did love to get it seed.

That torrent has been deleted on the request of it's owners or he agent of the owner alleging copyright infringement.

Thanks for the information! I will try your suggestions.

I tried completely exiting out of uTorrent and now it's downloading very fast. Not sure exactly what that did but thanks for giving me the idea.

You should run a test if your Vuze and BitTorrent are connectible. In BitTorrent, it is the "Network" test in the "Setup Guide" BitTorrent > Options > Setup Guide > check the "Network" box and run the test. The result should be a green check sign. If it is yellow/orange or worse a red cross, something is wrong with your setup or the network between you and the other peers. Vuze got as well an test tool, but I don't remember right know what is the path to it. ???

Please select a torrent from GayTorrent.ru in your µTorrent, then the "Trackers" tab in the lower µTorrent window part. There look for the line with the tracker announce URL and please indicate the message in the "Status" column. That message gives us some hints on possible issue causes.

The answer to your question is yes. However, if you mean the SheAniMALE torrent, you are already charged 0.02% of download. The problem with that torrent is that the seeder isn't connectible and only you leech.

Please drop in a PM when you are seeding > https://www.gaytor.rent/sendmessage.php?receiver=191566

i will get back to you. i think  i can test it using your account. i will let you know once i start investigating

Excellent explanation!!  Thank you very much for taking the time to explain the answer to my question in such great detail!!

thanks got it.

Ratio counts actually downloaded data amounts. If you didn't download the movie, no download was added to your accounts statistics and therefore nothing can or needs to be given back. If you speak about the number of .torrent files permitted for 24 hours, not nothing will be given back. There is no way to know if and when you'll use it.
