    While I like unrared the best, it annoys me when sites take it too far. Like when BTN doesn't want users to upload the folder, thus no .nfo and then the coders don't even bother fixing the .nfo upload section, so the users can see why something would be propered. So there is 0.5 seconds of spoken word missing or the release goes out of sync 300ms for 5 seconds. Well who gives a shit. Oversized, naming convention not followed, slightly mislabeled, well buhu. But what if the original release is unwatchable?

    Forcing people to go off-site to check things because of pure laziness and a I don't give a shit about info attitude.

    Not that it bothers me much, since I for the most part download P2P due to more quality control.

    Except all of that is easily remedied by editing the upload.

    So you are saying that the autoup, once fully working again will start looking through the .nfo of every proper to find the proper reason and then edit the torrent info to tell users?

    Because uploading the .nfo in .nfo field makes it go God knows where.

    An nfo is information about the release itself and should always be included when unrared.

    The question is, when the majority of users agree that rars are a waste of space and time, why do so many torrent sites still disallow unrared scene releases?

    I.e. nfodb is a black hole. Though not explicitly stated, I implied editing in the tech specs field. Since an nfo file is just text, nothing prevents copying and pasting that into the tech spec field. I don't mind, but do I have to do all the thinking here?
