Upped by….

pornton

I'm new to uploading files, I've done some and I notice that it's 'Upped by Anonymous'.
So no wonder that I didn't get any reaction…
How can I reveal my nick)name in the Upped-line?
Thanks
Pornton

You can't do that.

Some time back, many members raised concerns about their privacy and we removed a lot of information from the pages:

uploader name
swarm list
completed download list
torrent lists in user Profile pages became always private (not with strong setting only)

There is ongoing some reflection of allowing the display of the uploader name as option again.

If a member makes a comment to one of your torrent, you'll get a PM.

You could reveal your nick name by a comment or by indicating it in the description, but I wouldn't do that, really.

Most user prefer to stay fully anonymous and even don't click the "Thank you" button … best way to see if people like what you share is the number of downloads and peers keeping seeding long.

Okay, thanks for the clear information

You just said you wouldn't reveal your nickname and I just can't seem to understand why revealing my nickname is "dangerous" in any way (it's not my real name so I just don't understand how is this any kind of a privacy problem)? $:-\$

Could you please explain this to me cause I'd really really like to know all about it and to be able to make my username to be seen by everyone?

As was explained to you by Mod Junior in at least 3 topics you have posted, that Admin decided this few years back (long before you and I became members of this site) for user safety.

Also not sure after being explained to you in other threads you had to dredge up a thread from 2012 discussing the same thing.

I know that this option is disabled cause admin decided it's best for user safety but that's not what I was asking.
What I want to know is how showing my nickname is going against my safety?
This is first site on which I have ever seen that nickname is not being shown (cause it's "dangerous" for some reason) - so I'm really really curious and want to know how is that going against my safety? Why all the other sites are showing usernames and this one doesn't - what's the difference?
If anyone knows the answer but don't wanna discuss it in forum, you can PM me and explain me aswell.

junior

The owner of the site that you joined freely made the decision years ago…... No explanations needed except for user safety.

Ok, sad to hear that :cry2:
