No-one is accusing the new posters of stealing or conning You've gone to all the trouble of preparing a torrent, gathering some info and pictures and shortly after you upload it you get a message saying it's a duplicate. But I know the feeling. It's happened to me.

Fortunately the message you get is gentle and says thanks and try again which I hope people will do.

So my advice is search before you go to the trouble. There are so many torrents here, you can't be expected to remember them all. I have often thought 'ah, I will share that' only to discover that there are already copies one the site. And if you are in any doubt at all, remember there is a helpdesk and members who will lend a hand.

And thank you to all who take the time to think of sharing with us
