Vanishing torrents ...

@dilemmax LOL! It's true!
But, it is him though. I didn't want to make allegations, but yeah, it's him as he's made it way too easy. He'll complain and whine about screenshots (or lack, thereof, not even knowing if there were wonky complications if the uploader was using QuickTorrentMaker or not). Hey. Things happen that are absolutely out of our control, you know? His profile once had the Italian flag and now he's French all of a sudden. I guess his grand voyage from Italy to France, or from Italy to Sweden, and then from Sweden to France, he wasn't able to see that Middle Easterners actually do live in Europe. Hahaha! He's got some major beef, dawg.
Going back to the vanishing torrents, one torrent that I uploaded several weeks ago was reported for copyright stuff. I had a friend of mine send me a message via Telegram that it was listed as a popular torrent which I was like, "Daaaaang!" I don't do it for that reason, but I was flattered. And yesterday, it ALL got destroyed. Well, at least some people got to download it, so if this treachery and betrayal are being done so single-handedly, I will say a prayer to the torrent porn gods, and they will relinquish their evil powers.
Sigh. If only I believed in voodoo
(I'm kidding. I'm just being a fun goof). -
@forthepaul Then I DO wonder if it is who I suspect. Ugh, god. Okay, how would the DMCA thing work?
DMCA.com will accept reports of copyright infringement/stolen content for the rights holder who is a DMCA.com client. Internet users often are the best source to locate copyright infringement. Every day DMCA.com receives emails and information about stolen content.
So, how does one become a DMCA client? Is it like an exclusive social party? Do they serve Hors D'oeuvres?
Soapbubble ... POP!

a thing about a torrent being deleted after being on the Most popular Torrents front page. It's a whole other thing that has been going on even longer now and I'm surprised no one brought it up until now. Maybe they didn't notice that pattern yet, deserves a separate thread on here.
So here's another observation: It was kind of going on from August. If your Torrent gets to the most popular torrents list it is basically guaranteed to be deleted with a DMCA takedown, like 90% chance. Even if it's not the usual type of torrent that gets terminated. Like studio stuff from Cockyboys and Men or SC that has been consistently uploaded here. If they appear on top torrents list they usually stay there for a week, maybe slightly more but after that, when the moment comes when they usually disappear from the list to give space to newer torrents, it is deleted completely. If someone reposts exactly the same torrent the same day and it won't get on the list it will most likely not get deleted. Sometimes when ancient torrents from like 2014 or earlier get reseeded and appear as new on the page, if they get on the Top page share similar fate, definitely no one actually cared to report those. Before it was like a wall of honor but now it's like a spotlight to get deleted. The funniest one was when someone posted 4 pages from legit Batman comics when there was nudity, it was on Top page but in like 2 weeks vanished, I'm sure DC publishers aren't searching for 4 pages of their 40 pages comics on porn sites. This ordeal started before the fan sites content purge. Stuff from popular studios is posted as usual and will stay if they won't get on top page. This is either a weird automated glitch or another cleaning tool that went out of control. -

This is true and this very well true for all of us here and this is why GayTor should be purged of these traitorous Internet users. We don't deserve to be in the same ship as them. Isn't GayTor a private ship?

@forthepaul It seems that only white OF content creators are being deleted really quickly. The rest does get deleted but not as fast.
I really don't buy that at all lol. (I want to type something here about a certain category used instead of fansite that stays up longer but don't want to hurt any uploaders. Just check around yourself)
To top it off they'd need to be uploaded at a nearly equal rate to even make that statement and having seen the things uploaded to this site even when we don't have someone reporting torrents 7 days a week, was never the case.
Fansites are heavily targeted by the entity we're discussing, some fetish sites with really expensive clips like wrestling (which sadly don't stay up long enough to see which actually have sex) and jockfootf**tasy (I cannot believe their clips go up to 50 bucks a piece!) are hyper aggressive even without the help of this fansite person.
Ive had plenty of creators who are non white open in tabs to download later deleted lol, and it usually hurts more because I know unlike brandts boys they won't be uploaded every single day of the week.
-
@Rotron Yeah, someone is definitely up in this crib, alright. It's close to Christmas time, and last Christmas, the owner et al., deleted or got rid of a ton of online users who either hadn't:
- Hadn't logged in to the site for a considerable amount of time.
- Members whose ratio was less than 1.0 or who hadn't uploaded or downloaded anything at all.
It's Christmas cleaning time, and in my humble opinion, it's time to keep this by invitation only. I may ward off the headache. Ultimately, it's up to them of course.
By God, even a Ho Desert Knights torrent was taken down, and it was a freeleech and had been originally uploaded several years ago.
Soapbubble ... POP!

Lol i just witnessed one of the daily wipes after sorting through which I wanted, so I can safely confirm they are being FAR more aggressive than even the Wrestling site take down requests, which is NUTS.
-
I wonder if they have setup an RSS feed to make it easier for them find and report torrents?? I agree, we need to make the site private and by invitation only.
-
@djsoapbubble Well, let's see if there's gonna be one this holiday season. It's a great gift for those who contribute for the good of the site.
-
This site already is private and sign ups aren't open lol; the site is indexed by Google, so if you search for some more niche OF creators and they have (or had) a torrent uploaded, you'll find it on google, usually pretty high too. To my knowledge there absolutely are ways to make it so Google can't do that. What's also interesting is that googling and finding removed content was my first time actually seeing the DMCA category icon lol.
The reporter(s) likely have a membership.
It's not hard to find people swapping invites to this and other torrent sites. -
I honestly wish I understood their goal because by the time people in the know enough to do direct rips with python scripts or anything else come in, people have already done more direct rips and uploaded to streaming sites, so its not as if they are stopping the content from being spread.
-
I hope that Christmas miracle is actually coming because it's getting as bad as last year at this rate. Everything is getting terminated not only FS stuff. Old studio torrents from like 2016, 2015, 2014 that are reposted and are able to be freeleched are also getting deleted. You can't upload anything new and old stuff is also getting terminated(after freelech timer is over). Soon the site will become hollow. No one is sending a copyright claim on a studio porn that is on every website to view online anyway (and some of those studios no longer exist). If this goes on, the site sadly will be on a self-destruct mode in no time
-
@Rotron this happened to me! and then someone else is seeding the torrent but not getting it taken down...
-
@knoxguy89 Oh? That's new. Most probable is that the uploader is not aware that there was already the same title uploaded and got removed. Keep tabs on it and give us an update if it ever got removed too. Thanks!
-
To be honest, what can also happen is, it gets uploaded here, a few people snatched, it gets taken down, it gets uploaded to another torrent or site to share files, someone comes back here and sees its not up so tries to get ratio.
Since we know there's an issue with these excessive takedowns that aren't about whats IN the file, just that it is being uploaded, you aren't necessarily doing anything wrong in the upload, just that as this thread is describing there are excessive takedowns with incredibly inconsistent timing and inconsistent reporting.
-
@krad3434 just annoying that it hit like 4 of my recent torrents
-
@krad3434 said in Vanishing torrents ...:
excessive takedowns with ... inconsistent reporting.
Inconsistent reporting is the key. I think the site takes down all and only those torrents that are claimed by copyright owners. There's at least one torrent on this site from a studio that is very diligent about asking for takedowns, but the studio hasn't found that torrent because the studio name isn't mentioned anywhere in the title, description, or file names. (No, I'm not going to identify the torrent here.) If there's no takedown request on that torrent, it will very likely stay posted.
-
Has anyone else had freeleech torrents disappearing right in front of their eyes? When browsing the freeleech torrents, the first few torrents I click on disappear when I try to download the torrent file. Today that included "BigDaddy.com - Strong Men Fucking" and "HAR - Stephen Harte and Tonny DaRimma." When I refreshed the search, the number of freeleech torrents under my search filters dropped from 312 to 277. I've never had this happen before.
-
@roto13 People in thread are saying some older files are being taken down when bumped for freeleech but keep in mind, some of those may be simply having expiring free leech times. Try to browse by free leech time remaining to see which come and go from it.

@eobox91103
There are PLENTY of studios that are very on top of the removal of their files, the issue is, those are known and fairly consistent. I can think of at least one per non fansite category that is very much grab if you see it, on occasion the uploader will often warn as much in the description.A key thing is, it's only during times like now with the excessive takedowns these are identified and removed within the hour. Fish and Chips lads (using a coded name lol) is one of the notoriously aggressive sites and even their things don't get taken down at this speed.
