Try one of these options …

I followed advice and downloaded utorrent as my torrent client, but found no way to actually utilize it;
my regular download manager took over without the option to use utorrent instead.  I canceled the pop-up
window from the download manager but it reverted to my own computer; the "Open with" option did not
contain utorrent as an available choice.  I tried dragging the upload link to the utorrent icon and what it
downloaded was the title of the file.

Well, I have dial-up connection, living in a "hole" where DSL is not available and cable/satellite internet is
not yet affordable for me, so clearly I have no place in a file-sharing group!  I wonder whether I would live
long enough to upload an entire file [ha-ha!].  I am still downloading my very first file - and this is the 5th
day (or is it the 6th)?  Won't I be crushed when it fails to play!

As for big brother's comment that he is watching hugecigar - watching WHAT? [LOL]

Hi, I'm getting a message on all my torrents from gaytor.rent saying that "scrape is not supported" or "Failure: Unregistered Torrent".  This has not happened to me before so I'm a bit baffled at why it is happening now.  I believe it occurred sometime this morning while I was at school.  I know that these torrents have not been deleted from the server because even new torrents that I've downloaded give the same message.  I've been diligently uploading while downloading, so I'm not sure if I was kicked off the server or whatnot.  Please help and thanks in advance for your response.

We are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. http://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?topic=11178.0

Above is from your post on the "Scarpe error" in Vuze/Azureus and helps to start torrents without leecher, which is needed for uploading own new torrents, because these have no leecher until after approval.

The µTorrent/BitTorrent does that with the "out of box" settings and though queued torrents have the scarpe error, too, it is just displayed less prominent and therefore does confus less users.

Tools > Options > Queue -> Seeding  > First Priority > A share ratio under [1:1], set the rest to ignore and uncheck Torrents with 0 Peers

and

Tools > Options > Queue > Seeding > Ignore Rules > uncheck Ignore torrents with 0 peers

I created a torrent using Vuze, uploaded it, redownloaded it as instructed, and it started seeding according to the website. Then about an hour later it was listed as dead on the website and on my vuze programme its listed as queued. I tried redoing the whole process again and the same thing happened. I cant see what I am doing wrong, I have even stopped all the other transfers I have going. Can you help?

Depends on limits set in your Vuze the torrents will queue when you have several torrents running at the same time.

Try stopping other torrents and see if it starts seeding again.

I'll look in the Mac-section for my other questions.

Have a look at this thread for which client to use with Mac;  http://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?topic=381.0

Until you get more experienced with torrents, it's best to leave them in their original place until they are fully seeded.  Also, depending on which client you decide to use, you should be able to tell it where you want to download the files to.

If you want to manually move the videos and keep them available for BTing, you have to tell your client where you moved them to and you must leave them with the same file name.  If you no longer need them for BTing, then you can move and rename them, just make sure you remove the torrent file from your client, usually by right clicking the torrent in your client and selecting "remove torrent" or similar wording.

I have a MacBook with OSX 10.5.7

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong places on the site but I cannot find out what exactly I have to do with the torrent files. They are downloaded to the "Downloads" folder on my disk. I leave them there... is that right?

I use "Acquisition" as my torrent client; it puts the movies also in the "Downloads" folder on my disk, from there I convert them to DVD or whatever I want. Then I put the downloaded originals on a backup hd which is not always connected to my Mac. I'm afraid this is wrong but am not sure; should I leave them, with the original filename, on a specific place on my disk?

Now I just learned that Acquisition is not a 'real' torrent-client... with it I cannot upload files. Is Transmission a good one?

what it means is that you now have 2 options instead of 3

1. upload a new torrent to the site (run a search and make sure it isn't already here)
2. donate to the site

how do i "market" my seed?
also it still show visibility as "dead".

please help me. PM me.

thanks

I know these may sounds stupid but I really need to ask.

Read my signature line.

1. Yes, keep the torrents running until you have for example reached a ratio of 1.00 (might not always be possible, other will do more instead)

2. The Green arrow Up on GayTorrent.ru indicates how many torrents you have active uploading (seeding), the arrow down how many you have active downloading (leeching).

3. This is a reward for people keeping seeding even having low or no upload rate. You get 0.5 points per hour of seeding and can exchange them against credits of upload to your statistics, i.e. improve your ratio. Click on your bonus on top and you will see.

Best regards

1. How to share or seed a file that I have already finish downloaded? Is it just leave it in BitTorrent client? I use Thunder to download.
2. What is the green pointed up arrow below the blue browser stand for?
3. What is the function of the bonus?

Thanks a lot!  

also take a look at this - Minimum Ratio requirements for a better understanding of the ratio system on this site

I'll get the hang of it - I'm used to Ratio rules, just need to find my feet.
