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

      Yes, but hardlinking doesn’t work if the files aren’t on the same petition.

      My downloads folder is on the main harddisk.
      The files are moved to an external ssd.

        Have you looked into Remote Path mappings? I have not had to employ this myself, but my understanding is this allows you to avoid file duplication when your *arr and torrent client are using different filesystems.

        Maybe I’m mis-remembering though…

      I haven’t gotten around to finishing my stack but i could’ve sworn that’s the default behavior

        I believe it is, but I don’t think it always has been. I’m not sure if they automatically enabled it for existing installs when it was added.
