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

      If they don’t have the IPv4 addresses they can’t. Could always ask about IPv6, have seen ISP’s give out more than you’d ever need for a home LAN (like a /64).

      Edit - I should add, do make sure you have a setup firewall as you will no longer be “protected” by NAT and all the IPv6 addresses are routable to the open Internet.

            In IPv6, a /64 is only supposed to be used for a single subnet. If you have a subnet smaller than /64, things will break. SLAAC needs a /64, which means Android phones for example can’t use IPv6 on a subnet smaller than /64.

            /64 might seem huge but that’s just how IPv6 works. The entire 64-bit host ID is used for encoding MAC addresses into the IP address, or creating randomized privacy addresses. It needs to be huge so that it can do that statelessly.

      Yeah, I sure that would work, why didn’t I thought of it sooner?

      No, here get a real public IP is not possible unless you get a much more expensive commercial non residential contract.
