Ive actually been purposefully not mentioning the other sites so they dont have to go through this crap lol. I'm highly suspicious its a member. Even crawlers can't identify some of the files that are removed because now things that aren't just fansite uploads are being removed, and just as quickly.
That sites already way less active upload-wise, it couldn't possibly survive whatever is going on here.
And based on the take downs I've seen its not scanning the images because some people have simply just taken twitter profile images and not screenshots from OF videos and still gotten removed in minutes.
And that doesn't even speak to all of the non-OF videos that are also being removed at random due to being bumped to the top.

@krad3434 Yeah, I haven't uploaded anything for the past two and a half weeks. Logged in right now and have received two notifications. I believe they were both Raging Stallion. Oh, well. I'm not donating to this site if they don't get a handle on this.

So this is the end of the site??
This has happened before and it will happen again, but it should eventually pass just asin the past. When? Who knows? Could be days, weeks, maybe even a month or more. Just have to be patient.

For those curious, I've done a little digging in Google's Transparency Report (https://transparencyreport.google.com), same as I did last year during similar circumstances. Some highlights:
This domain
(https://transparencyreport.google.com/copyright/domains/gaytor.rent)As you might have expected, the number of requests have skyrocketed recently, reaching an all-time high last month (25k+). However, this isn't the first time this year that a very high number of requests has occurred: March and July featured similar peaks. Between these peaks, the number of requests substantially dropped to relatively stable levels. However, note that the more recent valleys still featured 3-5x more removal requests than in previous years. Clearly, takedowns are up both in general as well as during peak removal periods.
The most recent datapoint is Nov 24th. Nothing for December thus far, but it will be interesting to see what the next datapoint reveals.

They've always been one of the biggest takedown reporting organizations, but their most recent datapoint reflects by far the highest # of takedowns they've ever processed.Takedown Piracy LLC

Relative to its history, takedowns are on the lower side.xTakedowns

Relative to its history, takedowns are on the lower side.Onlyfans
https://transparencyreport.google.com/copyright/owners/279096Interestingly, OnlyFans no longer seems to be making requests itself, which had been the case through the end of 2021. Since then, that figure has been nil. Why? Well, by far the highest reporting organization through that period of time was DMCA Force, which made its last request on Dec 22th 2021. Back then, the final significant peak of OnlyFans takedown requests occurred on November 15th 2021, followed by a sharp downturn in requests. This would seem to align with the wave of DMCA takedowns on this site which peaked, then abruptly disappeared toward the end of last year.
Finally, scanning through some of the recent requests on an individual basis:
-
MG Premium Ltd. seems to process requests Monday through Thursday while taking the remaining days of the week off.
-
Gamma Entertainment through DCMA Force does its big batch weekly on Sundays.
-
Takedown Piracy LLC does its big batch weekly on Mondays.

@therock07 Intriguing and very informative. I did not know this was possible to do. Thank you very much. Data really enlighten things. You could work as an economist. I hope we could have more data like this.
-
@therock07 wow. thanks for that. I learn a lot when people post in-depth analysis like this.
Looks like Chris Damned does a lot of takedown requests.
-
@therock07 Thanks for the data.
I'm guessing a lot of the reporting is offloaded to other companies. I think the days are inconsistent because a bunch of files were just removed and its Friday.
I imagine most of their work is for streaming sites, so its fascinating this one is targeted so much.

To borrow a line from The King and I, Is a puzzlement.
I got a notice yesterday that a torrent I posted was taken down...but I built that torrent by taking three "parts" of a story that were downloaded through three separate torrents, and then merging them into a single file as it was much better to view that way. (I gave credit to the three other torrents.)
Those other three torrents are still live on the system, which is a good thing. But it's very strange.

no wonder I couldn't find most of SC's recent stuff, now it all makes sense. Thanks for all the info, I hope this passes soon and we get back to normal.

Keep in mind, the rapid takedowns we're mainly talking about aren't from some of the niche studios.
There are a handful of studios per category and clip sites that have ALWAYS taken their things down within a few hours and from ALL sites not just this one.What we're talking about is a higher number of mass reports towards fansites that has grown into random take downs of anything new for 6-12 hour periods per day.
-
@krad3434 I beginning to this that the site has been giving a blanket takedown notice so mod(s) are just removing anything they come across?
There's a straight OF torrent that has been up longer than most OF torrents. You don't see it unless you have the straight torrent section unhidden.

@eobox91103 Those definitely look fresh and sumptuously delicious. Just a bit of a joke on your donut pic, I found this on Google image search.
Gone are the Donuts! (Hey! I just looked at another browser tab for a second here and... WTF! Where the hell did those donuts go?)

I see people are starting to upload OF files with random titles (no mention of actors' names). So frustrating. I'm not downloading this because I need names attached to my videos lol
-
They are only trying to boost up their ratio ...
incompetent [person] behavior ... -
@forthepaul Yes, it died down a great deal after I posted that screenshot, but today it is back with a vengeance. Here's a new screenshot. All these torrents were made freeleech within the last 12 hours, and yet half are already dead. They have nothing in common with each other, and there's no way a DMCA complaint could result in a takedown in that short of time anyway.
Something nefarious is going on.

It seems to be heavily based on day of the week and time of day when the take downs happen.
I can't seem to figure out if there was a giant blanket takedown notice given, but seeing as how freeleeches are being removed years later I figure the fansite category would just be removed with a new rule added if that were the case. This site does have a do not post list.
I have even with the massive seemingly random takedowns noticed proper dupes and rule breaks removed, but usually those pages mention where the other torrent is vs the "no longer available" the others say.
-
Another funny note, I do have the straight category on. if its MG i think it's being done through an account lol, because by default straight isn't on for every member.
There are full site rips of one of MGs biggest studios for the last 6 months just plainly there.
