@dretafari If he has another meltdown like this, he'll get his wish.

When in a hurry I like to filter out the search with a similar list , -av1 -ai -enhanced -starlight -omegle etc then when bored ill browse without the filter , like freeleach - the av1's can be a handy way to resurface random stuff I may not have seen yet that is popular as someone put the effort in to recode / freeleach

@taboi two things: this site is waaaay bigger than GTO, and also waaay more understaffed. There's no way that anything can be resolved here by simply making rules more strict, the only immediate result would be an even bigger flood of non-compliant uploads. The new QTM is long due, if done properly it can help fix most of the existing problems. It would be possible to automatically generate previews and build a hashfile database that can be used to cross-reference duplicates. This way it would be possible to prevent duplicates from being uploaded in the first place, reducing the reports and freeing staff to focus on other stuff. A NLP could also be deployed to flag missing/incomplete torrent descriptions, and allow for users to fill in the details, instead of having to rely strictly on mods that will only act if something is reported.

no one active from there

@mftan2191 vtx files are created by VTM, the application used to create the thumbnails, it's just a cache file that stores metadata about each processed video. Although the vtx files are essential to generate the thumbnails using VTM, it's possible to configure the application to discard them after the images are generated. As for torrents containing those files, you can either delete after download (their size is negligible) or mark them to not be downloaded in the first place. Even though qbittorrent doesn't allow to sort by extension, it has a name filter feature. In the "add new torrent" window you can press CTRL+F and type .vtx and then uncheck those files.
