Existing torrent, but invisible via Search

Douseikekkon

How does it come that I'm currently seeding a torrent (with 1 leecher at the time of writing), named Sketchy Sex, consisting of 44 files for a total of 12,540,484,243 bytes, created on March 28th 2016, but unfindable on the Search page?

(I could give some more examples of gaytor.rent torrent, always active on my side, but which don't appear no more through Search.)

Hmmm you're not seeding it right now, which (if you were) would make it easier to troubleshoot your question, and try to find an answer and possible solution.

Please seed it again.

Thanks,

this makes searching for torrents with proper codenames as filenames but vague torrent titles very difficult

The search function here is wonky.

You can do a regular Google search and specify site:gaytor.rent as a search term and it will show up.

isn't reporting bugs and getting them fixed better for this site in the long run rather than having to rely on troublesome workarounds?
not that i'm expecting much since joker seems to have abandoned the site update halfway.

Few sites have a search function as good as a regular Google search with all of the search operators and features available with Google. None of the many torrent sites that I have used come close. Most of the time a site's search function will suffice but the versatility and customizability of a Google search can't be beat.

then why bother implementing a Torrent Filename checkbox that does absolutely nothing?
simply remove it and i can stop bothering about reporting duplicate torrents since its gonna take so much extra work to do so :clap2:

Yes, I’m with the same problem

I just send a support message saying the same, that searching for a torrent title that doesn’t have a description with its title can’t be found on searching results

Right. A Google search often returns results for torrents that are no longer available on the site because Google caches pages on their own systems for faster search results.
