Vanishing torrents ...
-
@drekkin Name obfuscation is not allowed on here as far as I know. It also render the search function null as I have never seen any widespread validated scheme you would typically find in the NZB community. Matching videos frames or any sort of content against a database is very easy, and very cheap. Have you never uploaded a pic of your ex on TinEye ?
Plus they're talking about fan sites, as popular as they are today, I am pretty sure they use text-based tools.Ah, the google index thingy... I have asked for years, never got an answer. The most logical thing I imaged was that there would be some kind of deal with authorities so that every outside party can verify that underage/pedophile material is not being distributed on here... But really I don't know.
-
@drekkin The Main reason I mentioned google indexing is because someone (and myself) have simply just googled creators before and found takedown requests for DMCA through google. Last year during the last quarter of the year it was an outrageous amount per day.
-
@krad3434 I woke up this morning and found new OF torrents to download. I just checked on them (5 hours later) and they're gone from the site.
-
@dilemmax Yeah it hasn't been this bad in a while. Before some files would stick even after the DMCA's it seems like this is a full sweep.
The worst part is it absolutely will discourage people from sharing if what they upload keeps getting deleted in less than 6 hours. The sites not super easy to build ratio on considering how huge some of the rips were getting to begin with.
-
@krad3434 most of them are site rips so pretty big torrents (20gb+). What I've started to do is download some files from the torrent and hope that OP will still keep seeding even after the torrent is unregistered. Works for me so far.
-
@dilemmax Yup that's my strategy when I can actually catch them uploaded lol. Hopefully this isn't just the permanent state of things here from now on.
-
There is also the possibility that the uploader himself deleted the torrent. Less than 7 days and the uploader can still edit and delete his own upload

Hmm interesting topic. I received a system message for a DMCA take down and it stated"
"This notice was received by the copyright owner or a verified agent authorized to make such a claim".
This is my first time to have received this notice for an upload I made and it confused me because it happened in just a few minutes after posting my upload. Just within 5 minutes, so no one was able to download it. Furthermore, it was only for that post. What about the other posts from the past weeks that belonged to the same title? Should they not request those to be removed also?
It's kind of weird. So right now, I do not know if this is valid and how did this happen within just a few minutes of posting it? If it is valid, did they requested this because it's the current episode showing while they don't care about the past episodes posted here? Does this mean I can post it again after a week passed by? Is it even safe to do so? I can see that this specific episode is still existing in another torrent site, so it means it only happened here.
Could someone please care to give me more insight to my situation so I would know what to do next time or at least prevent myself from doing things I have to be careful of?
-
I've just uploaded a torrent and received a DMCA within minutes. Other 2 taken down in the last week. Things are going downhill
-
@mihaig110 That's just baffling.
Are these happenings valid or is there something wrong with the system?
OR is it possible that these agents of copyright holders trolling gaytor.rent all day and night and is already armed with their DMCA requirements?
I have checked https://lumendatabase.org for the DMCA complaint but gaytor.rent is nowhere to be found as an infringing URL for the title removed.
-
@Rotron I uploaded 4 torrents this morning and after 10 hours, 3 got DMCA. It would be better if they could put what the DMCA claim was (as long there is no personal information). Since it's new for me, i don't know how to procede to counter claim, because i don't post fan site content, i just grab and collect from the web what is/was public available.
-
the same happend to the st4straight full onlyfans , its gone , does anyone still have the torrent file or know anywhere else to download it ?? i didnt had the chance while it was up
-
@VGC I've made a research and I'm going to do a counter notification. I saw that complaining about a DMCA is not allowed here, but i can't find how to delete my comment. Sorry about it.
-
@Genneration @VGC You can check https://www.lumendatabase.org/ if there really has been a request.
I do not know how to proceed either as I have never gotten anything like this from other sites. I wish the admins could shed some light on this if how they are finding out about these so fast. Are gaytor.rent posts leaking results in to Google searches? Or is the site really filled with agents hounding every new posts made in gaytor.rent?
Also, does this have something to do with the images that are uploaded with the torrent. Images that are watermarked with logos of the copyright holders / name of the production company?
How are they finding out about these? we need to know so that we know what to do and not to do.
-
@Rotron The torrent pages to appear on google. It was how i initially discovered the website. Meaby companies could get a notification if the company + gaytorrent appear together on google. Changing or coding the name of the torrent could mean by throw off that, but as of now it is against the rules. I'm not sure how or if the owner/mods would want to remove the site from google searches.

@Rotron
Not sure what to say about the validity of the requests. But the same type of content I used to upload on this site without any issues a couple of months ago, is now taken down for DMCA. ( Fan site content shared yesterday by me was deleted within 5 hours, but similar content but uploaded a couple of months ago is still up) I've had quite many.
I am also a member of another community similar to this one. No problems with what I upload there, only here. And it's shame since I really like this one.
I see that these type of complaints are being dismissed with replies such as " Of, maybe the uploader deleted the torrent ''
I think it would be beneficial to have updated upload guidelines. -
Hmmm I think my last comment here was deleted. Maybe I'm not allowed to say that here.
Anyways, we all know what's happening and we just have to stay attentive and vigilant. I have done some verifications but it's still baffling to me as they seem to be specific. In my case that is.
Also, uploaders can only edit their torrents within the first 6 days from the date they were published and that includes deleting them.

I obviously can't tell, but it seems just like last time this happened, the fansite category is being targeted hardest. There are some other studios and owners that regularly get removed, T~M, B~dytorium, RFC~ub, BBAdditi~ns - but it seems like whenever they get SUPER over the top with reporting its like anything from that category that is recently uploaded. Even things that are already uploaded on site but not updated, or also placed in other categories.
I know DMCA requests with something like this are incredibly sensitive and not open for much discussion but I do hope some sort of strategy is considered.
-
Just asking for some advice. Maybe I shouldn't even ask but here it is.
My post for example episode 5 has been taken down, I received the system notice for it but the previous episodes 1 to 4 are still here. They were not taken off. Is it okay or even safe for me to post it again a week after maybe because that was the current episode that week?
Or that's stupid, skip to episode 6 instead.
Or that idea makes me an idiot and just totally forget about the rest of the episodes coming for that title.
It's not clear to me how to proceed because there are a lot of other titles here coming from the same streaming site.
Your reply or experience about this would greatly be appreciated.

leave the rest of what you posted and if you are worried about them due to copyright issues, write to helpdesk to remove the torrent [from the browse and tracker list] ...
also @ your own risk re-posting torrent that has been taken down recently will lead into account warning and your upload privileges will be affected ...
