From the 1970s through the 1990s, almost all porn was recorded on VHS tape. Even a well preserved master that is converted to digital is restricted in being "poor quality" no matter how well it's done. This is due to the poor quality of VHS recording in general.

Even digitally enhanced remastered copies of VHS recordings look "old" because the original copy was low quality from the start.

Not to mention that magnetic tape (which is what VHS is) degrades over time, even in the best of environments. Porn studios weren't really known for keeping their masters in the best possible location inside their offices.

From the .rent site, clicking on "Forums" takes you to the forums on .ru and asks for a new login.

Also from the .rent site; when receiving a reseed request for a torrent. Clicking on the link to the torrent, takes you to a 404 error page.

Not sure if y'all already knew about these issues or not.

gaytorrents.net (no dash, different TLD, diffrent site owners, different software running the site AND trackers) has had some recent issues with their DNS - likely a change was made to the server IPs, and there were propagation delays in getting the front-ends (load balancers, etc) aligned - but that's conjecture.

Actually gay-torrents.net does have a dash. No dash sends you to a BADWARE site according to uBlock Origin.

The actual reason gay-torrents.net was down for several hours, was due to a glitch in the host DNS server's ability to auto re-validate the yearly validation. The downtime occurred when the host erroneously parked the domain. That has since been rectified manually. There could still be a few users who are waiting for their ISP's to re-populate their own DNS servers.

Another excellent choice, also by Phillips Norelco, is their model 1100.

And some kind mod did make it FreeLeech. Thanks!

@frostycab This guy is such a pain in the ass. And not the good kind...

This was answered on another site.

Tough Competition (1984)

I have to agree with Arago. Since I started using a seedbox, I haven't gone past 50% of my data cap (a bit less than your cap). AND my seeding is now 24/7 so I'm gaining a much better ratio.

There are lot's of providers and plans for most every budget.

@Playmate The site has been working fine for me for the last 8-ish hours. They were down due to a DNS issue with their host. Perhaps you need to wait for your ISP's chosen DNS server to re-populate. Nothing nefarious going on, just a technical glitch. Should resolve itself for most people in a few hours. For some people it may take a couple days.

If it's Star Trek, I'm going to watch it. I have enjoyed every series to varying degrees. However, Discovery, Picard & Strange New Worlds, for me, all tie for last place.

I was starting to really enjoy Star Fleet Academy. But it will be (has been) canceled after the 2nd season, scheduled for 2027. Just when it started getting interesting, and characters started coming to life. Probably too "woke" for the current political state, with a gay Klingon, and a lesbian couple as main characters.

@jokuihmemies You must be somewhat special. I don't get the Delete option at all. Also I only see the Edit option for about an hour after posting, then that's gone. You have both options even after 20 hours.

My guess is there may be a member level achieved after a certain number of posts, or it may be tied to reputation. With that, they're allowed to "Delete" and Edit doesn't disappear.

@Kevin4fm I don't know this particular forum software, but I can say that on another site, deleting the first post in a thread is reserved for mods/admins. The reason being, when a first post is deleted, it deletes the entire thread, including all the replies. This has been the same with 2 completely different forum softwares we have used over the years. If it were allowed, some pissy posters could kill dozens of interesting replies either by accident or on purpose. So we don't allow that delete option for regular forum members.

Perhaps it's because that particular website doesn't allow hot links to their images? Maybe due to age restricted laws?

I'm not going to search through his hundreds of porn videos for the exact title of this one. But if you didn't already know...

Malik Delgaty, is a Canadian actor in gay pornographic films. He began working as a stripper at 18 years old in his hometown of Montreal.

Please, and Thank-you!

@Kevin4fm Oh, believe me, I understand your logic. Why just these files, why just this site, why...

You would be surprised to know how often I hear those same questions when it comes to qBittorrent. Unfortunately that's the problem with bugs. They can be near impossible to pin down, without full knowledge of what actually causes them and what programming was done to create them. Not to mention the coding for different trackers handling different errors differently. Different .torrent creators creating torrent files differently, etc.

Is it possible it's not qB? Sure. But my bet is, it's qB. Wait for a new stable update for your system, and see if that fixes it. There may also be a setting somewhere in the client that can be switched on/off that could also affect just those few files. I'm no expert on clients, so I wouldn't know where to start looking.

Hopefully it won't be too frustrating for you either way. At least knowing it might just be a glitch, and it's really not affecting your uploading/downloading, will provide enough solace.

@Kevin4fm First let me say that whenever there's a "strange" issue, my first reaction is "are you using qBittorent?" That client has had so many buggy issues, that it is now my first question when trying to troubleshoot. That said, here's what Google AI has to say:

"The "Unregistered Torrent" error combined with a working transfer is a common phenomenon in qBittorrent that typically points to a temporary timing sync issue or the localized use of decentralized networking."

Suggestions/Solutions: Wait for qBittorent to roll out yet another probably bugged update, or change clients.

To add to this tip... Always STOP your torrent(s) before deleting them. This can prevent crashes, errors, locked files, etc.
