Vanishing torrents ...
-
Woooow didn't know that problem was this bad. In fact looks like a sabotage. Some torrents that I uploaded got bumped to the front page today and are freeleching currently. Guess I should be waiting for a "dmca takedown" any minute now, for a 2 year old torrents, a content creator of which left online presence years ago and doesn't care.
This is in fact a problem as someone is just triggerhappy and is removing everything, randomly. Previously I thought it was just to keep fan sites stuff to a minimum now it seems that someone wants to make sthe site obsolete
sad -
Also it seems that the goal is to delete everything on all fronts. If the torrent is on Top torrents page - deleted, if it is from like 5 years ago and is freeleeching - deleted, if it's posted in fan sites category -deleted. very soon no one will be able to post anything.
By the way the whole deleting time is 8 - 9 AM USA western coast time. This is usually when everything disappears -
Here we go ...
Sad ...

Your point being?
Sorry, but IMHO a DMCA complaint...regardless of how or why or who lodged the complaint...is a reasonably valid copyright complaint, regardless as to whether someone wonders why other movies/etc. are still here without being taken down. DMCA complaints have to be complied with to avoid potential further legal issues.
Complaining or whining about something being taken down isn't going to change the situation. Like it or not, it is what it is.

AND the site is for some reason indexed by Google.
I wish someone could explain to me WHY on earth this site is indexed on Google. It shouldn't be.
Fan sites is basically useless because torrents are being taken down. But they should do whatever it takes to fix this because fan sites is the new reality of gay porn. It makes no sense to not do whatever it takes to hide this new uploads when we know that fan sites will only get more popular. We need these torrents to stay hidden and not be taken down because they are showing up on Google or whatever.
Forgive me in case all I'm saying here is complete bullshit but c'mon! That's what's happening right?

I do think the website can hide these torrents by not indexing the website on Google though. It seems like they use Google for all these takedown notices.
I think users have the right to complain if it means that website owners might be able to actually do something about it to help us.

It does seem odd to me that pages are accessible "from the outside." I can only presume that the site owner(s) have reasons for this...and also that these are not topics that can get an official answer from them.
-
...and people are right about this regarding the site being crawled and indexed by Google. I did a search and the site CAN be prevented from being crawled and indexed by Google. It's a simple matter of using either metatags or a robots.txt file.
Here's what I turned up on Google regarding this. Site owners simply need to have the coder here add something like this (or both metatags and a robots.txt file) to prevent Google from showing this site. I did a search and was shocked to find out I can find things here through Google.
-
I have been wanting to ask this question as to why it is indexed by Google. This does not make GayTor private anymore, does it?
This may also explain as to why many are looking into moving to another site as the security and anomaly issues here can be perplexing.
Seeing the difference of the number of my torrents snatched here to the one I came from; there is a big difference. This is why I chose to stay and persevere here though thinking of the security of ones anonymity here can be quite concerning.
I'm not sure if this is allowed to be posted here. Please delete it if it's not.

I've never seem someone type whining online with the extra g and actually add to a conversation lmao, historically. Just an observation, it never ceases to amaze me.
Anyhow this is still all incredibly fascinating because I've noticed some reposts pop up with like 0 effort, and I can't even blame them because they probably guess "why put effort if it'll be taken down at random".
I'm not a member of any straight torrent sites like this but I wonder if any private ones are under this level of scrutiny.
Freeleech torrents vulnerability is definitely to do with them being bumped added to that list.
At this point with last year and the last few weeks, I don't think anyone who frequents the site isn't aware. I'm just curious if anything can be done.

There was a newly posted torrent that was on the top of the search list. It was titled OFVLFN-something. I totally forgot the word. The screenshots got good looking young boys. It was 14GB and wanted to download it. I just took a peek at the forum and when I went back to download it, it was GONE.
Now I'm going crazy looking for it. Would you guys know anything that's spelled something like that?

Uh...I did a general search of all categories (I usually ignore the porn sections), and there's videos from Onlyfans...try searching for that.

Well, I finally feel free! FREEEEE! At last!!!! No, seriously. I haven't uploaded anything at all, but I have noticed that the ones I previously uploaded have either:
a) Been uploaded by another member here with the same file size to increase that minuscule ratio increase.
b) Been snatched here and then slapped with an atrocious Gay-top.net watermark to pimp their website.
c) all the aboveYeah, I'm done. LOL!
-
@cinemacapman Yes it definitely is an OnlyFans but I totally forgot how that OnlyFans account name was spelled. I usually am not into OF but those boys got my attention. I should have opened it on a new browser tab. Oh well....
-
I hate to see we're losing people willing to share, but I'm guessing nothing will be done or whatever actions taken can't be spoken on.
I saw some content creators i was gonna sub to uploaded super early this morning and grabbed them, of course both files are gone, 75 gigs and 45 gigs, so people who don't have seedboxes or who haven't been here a LONG time, can't really grab those kinda file sizes anyhow.
Ive even been ripping some content creators that have been on sale but it's like why upload lol, i absolutely wouldn't do a low quality upload and probably spend time making screenshots and naming files, I'd be pissed to see it deleted in less than 12 hours.
-
@krad3434 Exactly the very same thought in my mind. It's how I felt but I persevere.
-
@krad3434 Damn, I missed out. Maybe I should create a Discord server and share files between us.
-
@krad3434 Whinging is a Euro spelling.
-
@krad3434 the thing is, porn sites are getting less and less popular. The future of gay porn will be content from fan sites. Actually, it already is the new reality. Content creators are more popular already than a lot of websites.
If gaytorrent doesn't do something to fix this, I think this site will "die" in a few years if admins don't do something about this. People will start to migrate somewhere else because this just isn't working.
Which is a shame because I do like this site a lot. Have been here for over a decade,

@massafera
The porn sites are in a weird state, a lot of OF creators who stick to the SW profession eventually just move onto work with studios then eventually rentmen if they keep up with it once studios stop hiring them, unless they make their own studio or w.e.Studios are mostly either in the giant conglomerate owned by M*ndgeek or niche and able to stay afloat with subscriptions and selling other products etc.
OF itself is teetering based on how Twitter ends up. So much fansite promotion is done through twitter that can't currently happen on ANY other social media site that it'll be interesting to see where this all goes. It doesn't help that it seems OF is hitting a saturation point. Some creators are hot but simply have shitty content lol, and try to nickle and dime for it with PPVs onto of subs and continued sub bonuses.
As for this site. I can't speak much to how things will go. Gay torrenting sites are scarce, especially compared to any other type of torrenting site lol. This is still one of the largest and most updated even with the ridiculous take downs.
We'll have to see whats done and whether or not this will be a one of or an annual end of year experience.
