Thank for the feedback. Actually all active members should have corrected the "Hosts" file already at the previous server moves. What you encountered will effect users who never shut down their computer, but send it to sleep only. Mac users might be most concerned.

nw so fst lke spd rdng!

You are very welcome. I do believe in the concept of feedback 

No, it isn't that. The data base contains all completed torrents of a member still listed on the site. Only the value of how many will be displayed in that list has been increased from 50 to 250. Mine was showing immediately more. However, I've noticed some years back (2010?), when working to get the "lost torrents" from the spring 2009 server crash back, that from one day to another many torrent's completions lists (not visible any more to non-staff) became empty or very short. It looked for me as if some data base purging was done, but never got any confirmation from the Administrators. @ric58hard: Do you have javascript enabled in your web-browser?

@pickknic: … so if i see that symbol, it basically means you guys on the gtru team liked it? No not at all. There is an equal treatment of all torrents. Taste of team (members) is not a criteria to promote a torrent. The criteria include (not exhaustive): long time "dead" (no activity counter, no completed downloads for months) requested "dead" help of low ratio members being the only seed (re-seed) etc …

That was silly of me… :cheesy2: Thanks!

I don't agree to andy32. The staff of the site don't have to be visible, to help and solve problems and to answer questions. They will do their "job" as soon as possible, no matter if there is a online status or not. If you don't have the time to wait for answers, or solutions, you should think of paying for the support ( and I don't mean an irregular amount of donation! ). At the moment, the site is totally free for all users and I am very thankful for all the free services, that all the members of the staff are giving to us! :cheers: It isn't necessary for anybody to know the online status… in fact I think, it should be a user choice, if they want to be seen as online or not, but I can very well live with it, that there isn't such status.

I have had no problems for the last two days so, hopefully, that means we are back to normal.  Thanks to all who solved the problem!

normally they shouldn't get any system warning about "duplicate accounts", just a red symbol will show up …

Great tip! :ok2:

We noticed that issue and it will be corrected. The torrents are still there, but invisible for all. A little patience.  :love:

This is interesting and I have somehow resisted updating my client from 2.2.1 all along. Another reason NOT to do it. I have heard generally there are quite a few issues with the newest version of utorrent.

Did you vote on the poll?  The system will not allow you to access the browse or search pages until you have voted.  Simply vote and all will be normal again.    :cheers:

Please compare the tracker announce URL you see in the torrent client programme (µTorrent, BitTorrent, Vuze/Azureus, …) with the one you see in your Profile if you click on your name in "Welcome back, ..." below the blue menu band It should look like: http://tracker.gaytor.rent:2710/YourSecretePersonalPasskey/announce Where "YourSecretePersonalPasskey" is a long series of numbers and letters, which you must not publish here ore elsewhere. Your torrent client programme either doesn't connect to the tracker or doesn't get a message back. So the first step is to assure the URL is a correct one. –---- If you use µTorrent/BitTorrent, can you check the connectivity please: Options > Setup Guide ... > check the "Network" box and run the test. What is the result? Green, orange or red?

@farnhamj07: Most of the problem in translating stuff comes from small nuances like that! ouch!  :afr: I didn't replace home and house by intent, believe me. but thanks, I won't do such mistake again… maybe. :cheesy2:

@MontanaJones: … That is indeed the case:  "unregistered torrent"  What is going on here?  I did a forum search for pornguardian and this post is the only mention of it, I see these torrents are still on the site, are these torrents actually dead now? If you see the torrents still on the site, it will be different torrents to those you loaded. If the file type and size matches, you could try the reseed procedure to join the new torrents swarms. We got a pictured guide for µTorrent/BitTorrent in the Forum.

That worked. Thanks very much. Much appreciated.

@leatherbear: This is the link to the "How To: Search For a Duplicate Torrent Before Uploading a New Torrent" https://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?topic=6659.0 The best explanation on how our search system works to return the best results. Hope this helps  Thank you, thank you, thank you - you've been a lot of help for me!  :cheesy2: R  >:D

It would appear the site may have been subjected to an attack launched at trying to take the site down. We are aware of this and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Please be patient with us, and eventually we will return. Best Regards, leatherbear GayTorrent.ru Staff

Thanks for posting my short message. We are working on the problem at this time. Sorry no real info available at this time. [image: 1781651077800-68ec11cc3095.gif]
