It seems that there's a 404 error problem with gay-torrents.net and if you try any of the workarounds, you are prompted that your username/password is incorrect.

Does anyone have any word from mods or admins from there about it?

It's working fine for me. If you continue to have problems, I suggest using their help desk. If you get completely locked out, send me a private chat message with your username on that site, and I'll see if I can get a message to someone who can help.

If you go to gay-torrents.net "wrongly" (that is: without the https or just to the main site) you will sometimes get errors - and that's on purpose! The site owners don't WANT to be so easily found (or discovered)...

Use the full URL to the torrent part of the site: https://www.gay-torrents.net/latest/ and use your login information... you should get in without a problem...

But don't forget: these torrent sites are really part of the "dark web" you see on the news! We're sharing - mostly in violation of copyright - files that we have no real right to share! As such, the site owners have to balance:

attracting new members (which means new content)
NOT attracting accidental, copyright-holder, or law-enforcement members (who want to stop the sharing)

In other words: make the site easy to get to if you know where you're going, not so easy if you're just looking around!

@bi4smooth I tried the https to make sure it wasn't an issue with my browser and it's still sending me to the invalid username/password screen.

I did update my password and still can't log in.

@mdx8472 This is the link I use, from which I get prompted for a username:password: https://www.gay-torrents.net/torrentslist.php

That link works for me - you need to reset your password

@eobox91103 I was looking for a link to the help desk but can't seem to find it. Do you have a direct link for me to reach them?

Also, my username is "mdx8472" for that site. If you can reach out and get a message for me, that'd also be appreciated.

@bi4smooth I used the link and reset my password. Unfortunately, it's still kicking me back to the password/register page after getting a confirmation message that my password was successfully changed.

I'm assuming that when you go back to the log-in page, you enter your username and new password, and it still blocks you? Is it possible that your browser automatically enters your old password?

I couldn't find a 'help" link on that site, so I posted a forum message mentioning the problem (but not your username), and I'll let you know if I get a response.

@eobox91103 Thanks for that. Hopefully, someone can give an answer about my situation. Fingers crossed.
