Upload torrent permission

Post by JITFJumpInTheFire »

Hello everyone,

I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I wasn't readily able to find the answer to it in the Tracker (sub)forums or the sticky threads. I'm registered with an account (not the forum) but when I go to click the "Upload Torrent" button, it states that I do not have permission to do so. I'm sure there's some sort of activation or other requirement, but I'm unaware, so any help is appreciated. Thanks :)
Looking forward to sharing with everyone :D

Hi,

Your account looks ok :huh:

When do you exactly get the error message? Right after you click on "Upload Torrent" or after you choose the .torrent file to upload? In the second case, be sure your torrent filename does not contain some special characters like &é"'(-è,;!:_çàù^$ù

By the way you could retry now, I've reset/set some settings in your account, it could help.

Otherwise, try to clean your cookies, log out, log in, try another browser...

Also, when you click on USER MENU, YOUR DETAILS, there's a "Reset Passkey" link at the right. You can try that

Keep us updated.

Thanks for the help man,

I believe I see what the issue is. I had yet to "create" a passkey, which I didn't realize I had to do. Now it says that I am part of the group "Validating". So I'm assuming I just have to wait a bit :)

Well you shouldn't have to create/reset your passkey. It's only there to fix a specific issue. But some users said it helped them, so I gave you this suggestion.
I think the problem is somewhere else. Actually I think I just found what is wrong. When you log in on the site, are you sure you typed JITFJumpInTheFire in the username field? If not, log out and log in: On metpage.org, on the left site, LOGIN FORM, click on Logout. Then enter JITFJumpInTheFire as your username and your password.

If it still doesn't work, send me a PM, we'll continue privately.
