Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that's a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.

I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That's fine, I choose to support the community, but it's pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.

This only works if you share. Please don't cut off as soon as you've downloaded.

And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for "Machine Gun Fellatio" also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular

"MGF Pack 1"

"MGF+Pack+2"

"MGF+Pack+3"

If I can get the download completed I'll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I'm getting nowhere.

Rules don't permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help

And I gotta say, I love the attempted support by you and others. Peace, love, and humptiness, forever!

Unfortunately not more I can do regarding the router, each one is different after all.

I use IRC for most of my searches and only use torrents for hard to find things. I’d love to see stuff like Linux distros, the internet archives, and other seemingly important (legal) causes, if I can get them to work consistently.

I don't know which IRC/XDCC service you use, but I only recently heard of https://www.xdcc.eu/ which is pretty nice. Back when I watched anime in the early 00s I used to do most things via IRC, just so convenient to look up groups on like anidb.net (of course still possible, example: subsplease -> XDCC) and get it straight from the source.

I agree with Linux distros. I'd prefer that all of them used torrents besides their regular mirrors. Distrowatch has a tracker, and then there's FOSStorrents, but there's no guarantee ones distro of choice ends up there.
