There's a difference between the IE (and FF2 as well, I think) that only sees that as the first letter of the whole address and FF3 that actually also seeks through the whole address and the title.

Q: Why are some domains N/A? A: The no-www standard does not apply to certain domains. In these instances, traffic to example.net may be directed to a different server or contain different content than the www. version.
*facepalms*
The reason it's N/A, of course, is because Bisqwit decided to make a big stinking error message instead of either mirroring the content, making a silent redirect, or just not having that subdomain int he DNS at all. Technically, I would classify it as a mix of types B and C.

You should put up a redirect to meatspin so as to PUNISH the use of www. Just an idea. A bad one.

I'd think first time visitors would assume the site had been hacked, if you did something like that.

I changed all the torrents to the correct tracker and most of them worked ok, but this torrent (spidermanvskingpin-tas-mmbossman,neofix.avi) gives me this message when seeding Error: (requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker) Every other torrent of mine works fine with the new tracker though. Also note: I find its much easier editing the tracker list instead of manually going and downloading each torrent of the website. If there is a script was made to automatically edit all torrents that a person has to change from the old tracker to the new tracker, it would be a lot less of a hassle for everyone to change. Download the script - put into torrents directory, and run it once - everything is fine - much much easier than downloading every single torrent again or editing it one by one. Is it possible that someone can write a script that does this and will work for most people? It would enable a much quicker transition to the new tracker.

That torrent probably uses the tracker through port 6967 instead of 6969 Then again... currently both Super Mario Land 2 and the first Sonic CD (eng and jap) torrents are currently not authorized, and they come from the database (supposedly)... Maybe it's just a glitch, since those were authorized yesterday.

try a non-existent 404 error for www.dattebayo.com and thats the sort of thing that can happen. Note the 404 page is DEFINTELY NSFW! So actually dont try it. I also checked the tasvideos site and realised the torrent I have updated has been removed of the tracker (because it was obseleted). Are the obseleted torrents always deleted off the tracker or did this just happen when the server changed?

That is off-topic in this thread, but yes, obsoleted torrents are usually deleted unless there's good reason to keep them. They are not deleted automatically; I have to manually scan through the torrent list and determine which ones are obsolete and move them out from the accepted list. I do that every once in a while; sometimes a few months may pass before I do it the next time. As for the Chrono Cross torrents, they use a different port because they use a different tracker. And they use a different tracker so that those who run the autoseeder for TASVideos, are not forced to download&autoseed the large Chrono Cross videos whenever they are requested by someone, because they are not part of the site's official selection.

I tried it and all I got was a IE style 404 page.

Try any file in the /t/ (torrents) folder that doesn't exist; this measure was implemented to keep out leechers hungry for their 0day Naruto fansubs. Also I only know about this because I looked up stuff about Last Measure, I'm not some otakukin Narutard.

I guess they were silenced by enemies of the lulz.
