The Pirate Bay Upload Page?
#1
I just noticed that when I have an & in the torrent name on the upload page it just refreshes, (Gives no warning on character limits)
For Example

Tibet & India, An History of Buddhism (this will not work for the upload torrent name

Tibet And India, An History of Buddhism (this works)

Is there an list or more information on what the warnings are for uploading torrents on the pirate bay?

Known reasons that a upload returns the user to a blank upload page, which will affect your ability to upload

  • Title too long (No more than 64 char, including spaces)
  • Description too long
  • url in title or description
  • File type included which is not allowed in certain categories (e.g .exe in movies, mp4 in audio etc)
  • .txt and/or .pdf files in upload posted in Music section
  • Torrent already exists ( Check if torrent already exists by pasting the exact filename you are attempting to upload @ Torrentz) to see if its already indexed in TPB
  • Too many files in torrent (Usually returns an "Entity Too Large" error) Archiving the files is a possible fix
  • .torrent filesize too big (about 270k is the limit for most .torrent files)
  • In Video HD (especially in ***** section) if you try uploading a file smaller than 400MB regardless of weather it is a 720/1080p file it will return a blank upload page
  • An ampersand  "&" representing the word "and" in title will cause a return to blank upload page.

I have check these and I still get the problem where it will redirect me to a blank upload page. Do you know why I am getting it?

I found that I hadn't added trackers to the torrent so it wasn't uploading. Sorry for posting  Confused
