      I delete that crap and put my own message in there explaining why it was rejected.

          You say: 'Uploaders have little to no incentive to support the site other then their desire to help other gay members'

          This is exactly right, there is little incentive or appreciation here.  I have been a member for only 3 months and have uploaded 250 torrents, but I can't even be given the courtesy of a reply to 3 mods I have messaged this week.

          Life eh

            We do have several Mods "out" so that may be the reason why you not getting anything back.  You can use the Helpdesk you may get a faster response.

              If you have to wait that long I would suggest what I used to do as a user.  Click on staff at the top of the page and find out what Mods are online.  PM one of them and ask if they can review your upload for approval.  There is no Mod sitting there in the torrrent approval queue waiting for torrents to be uploaded.  We all pretty much work the WHOLE tracker so you may need to get our attention every once in a while. BTW thanks for sharing on here.  Please don't let one or two bad experiences detract from the great job you are doing as an uploader.  You have 10 clean uploads so I have granted you Auto Approval rights.  Be looking for my PM on what you need to do.  Take care.

              offtopic: You have AA rights so I can't imagine it was about torrent approval which is what this thread is about.

              I'm pretty sure I wasn't one of the Mods you PMed.  Even if it takes me a day to respond, I respond to every member who PMs me.  If you have not still received the attention you need from your PM please send me a PM and I'll see what I can do to help you out.  As an alternative if it is a general question you can post a helpdesk request and all the Mods can see it and respond accordingly.  Finally there is almost always a Mod in the chat rooms and they do an awesome job of responding in a timely manner.

              Much Love

                Thankyou Brandon, another of the helpful, understanding, down-to-earth and compassionate mods on here with genuine concern. People like you keep me here and make my day brighter. Thankyou.

                  Have been thoroughly supported by several mods in the last few days. Very grateful for all the help and understanding on here.

                    After one has uploaded a torrent, it should be seeded. Only then it will appear in our approval list and a moderator will review it.

                    If it is not seeded, it will fall back into a secondary list. It may be (but not must), that a moderator will send you a message to seed it. As soon as you restart seeding, it will reappear in the first list.

                    This means after some time (a few hours) of waiting for approval, if one stops and retakes seeding the evening or the next day, it is still there. Only if after 3 days no moderator was seen seeding it and it was not reviewed, it will be deleted.

                    Of course it is much preferable if the seeding is continuous, it assures that when ever a moderator got free time (we work, too) it is seen as waiting for approval.

                    If one can predict not being able to seed a torrent in one rush, it is possible to indicate seeding hours (with time zone information, please) and interupt seeding. Every body leecher and staff understand that there are many reasons for not having it's PC runing 24 hours a day and multiple days. It's nearly unavoidable on big torrents, e.g. full DL DVD.
                    Note that this is not optimum for the original seeders share ratio, because while he's off line, the others will share between each other what they got already.

                      I said this in an earlier post but I think it bears repeating….If you need a quick approval try these two things. First, click on the Staff link at the top of this page.  If you see a green "light" by a mods name he is probably online and available.  PM that mod and ask him to review your torrent for approval.  There are so many areas to this site that a mod may be in the forums or reviewing Auto Approved torrents to ensure they are correct.  The second thing is to hop in the Chatroom.  There is almost almost always a mod in there.

                      BTW: Mods receive no pay.

                        We find several rule breakers, improperly titled torrents, fakes, duplicates, etc during the approval process too. Quality aside, we wouldn't need an approval process if we could rely on everyone to follow the rules.

                        @Saphsaph:

                        I'm guessing gaytorrents pays very little (if they do at all) for a full time mod.  So I just can't be mad at someone for doing a voluntary job…

                        Aint that the truth. 🙂 We don't get paid at all and don't get any special perks either, all we get is work. 🙂 We all work here because we love this site, it's just a hobby.

                        We do need more mods from different time zones or who are here at different times than our current torrent approving staff. Not everyone on the staff does approvals, and the ones that do may be away for one reason or another occasionally (school, work, personal matters, vacationing, etc).

                        This thread is still valid if anyone is interested; http://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?topic=275.0

                        BTW: Brandon's suggestion of PMing a mod who is working on the site does work ;), I've done it myself when I was a regular user and was surprised at how fast my torrent got approved. 🙂

                            I am here far more often than I care to admit to myself  ;D and I am always willing to help with a quick torrent approval to make any uploaders life easier !!!

                            Just a PM away…..
