Anidex has started to do a lot of auto-forwarding to TT.  That's how Doki's stuff gets here now.

Nyaa is restrictive, TT is not, so there's no reason for an Anidex author to not co-list or auto-forward to TT, if they want the broader coverage.  Some authors may not.  Previously, one member of AnimeRG (Phr0sty) didn't want his stuff to be listed here at AT.  Avoiding Nyaa and TT is a way of doing that.

April 1 is an odd day with TT.  In the past they've done stuff like mix games and hentai into the anime category for April 1.  In a few hours things will be back to normal.

Everything has its ups and downs. What do you want to see in it? What's your focus or your attention to it? Is it the ups or the downs?

Watch the genre you like and don't waste your time to watch the genre you don't even like. Like Anon above said, there are still plenty of various genre.

Thanks for the note. I'm keeping an eye on it.
It looks like the check process is detecting the failures.
I've enabled post retrying, which should kick in soon. Will see if that helps.

Update: well the post checking works, but, for whatever reason, the last post of each file never gets there, even after multiple attempts.
Maybe I'll need to try another news provider...

Out of your list I only liked Escaflowne.  The rest is out-dated dumb stuff to me.

But get honest about it: if you like the old ultra-violence compare it to the new ultra-violence, of which there still is plenty.  Old vigilante to new vigilante, old mecha to new mecha.

There are also ongoing series where the offerings now are as much fun as they were years ago.

anime last season has been super underwhelming. koukako pandora, nurse witch, what the hell are these? where is best of the best stuff like trigun, old berserk, gungrave, escaflowne, gipang, and jin roh? it seemed all these days we got fanservice and moe shit, plus more light novel turd. what the hell japan? otaku pandering to the extreme these days. no wonder miyazaki said the industry is crumbling

Thanks for the suggestion.
Years ago, I did try out automated link checking, but the reliability wasn't great for me. Combined with the fact that users can use link checking via browser add-ons, I never bothered with it too much.

But if you do find a reliable tool which covers all the hosts here, and is free without restrictive limits, I may consider it. The link you provided seems to limit you to 3000 requests per month, which is far too low to be useful.

Rather than old links, admin has invested in creating new multi-year links on Usenet, for newbies and slowpokes like yourself.

Thanks for the information.

Posting is only considered successful when the server sends back a 240 (post OK) response. I suppose it's possible for the server to reject the post but send back an OK, but that's a rather weird thing to do. Or maybe it just randomly loses posts - I've checked the posting server itself and the message ID isn't found. But the loss doesn't seem random, as it's usually the last part of each file.
It's even weirder that, so far, there seems to be a time element of sorts - it works for a period, then fails for a while, alternating between the two once every day...

I was thinking that maybe the server rejected the message-id that was provided in the article header, but that doesn't make much sense.
Even if the .nzb files here had faulty message-id's, indexers would still be able to group everything together, assuming that the segment was uploaded in the first place.

This show for example, is missing the last segment of the .mkv and the .par2 (40/42 segments found):
https://anizb.org/search/?query=Yami S... 3 12 480p

That groups by name only, so it seems like the 39th segment of the .mkv and the 3rd segment of the .par2 don't ever get uploaded, even under a different/unexpected message-id.

Looks like it's happening again, although I've done nothing to provoke it (I think) :(
It's very odd that it's almost always the last part of the file that goes missing, but I can't see anything I'm doing wrong on my side...

If you want guidelines, you can assume after 60 days your chances of getting live links drops like a rock.

opps, I made a mistake.  I think AT downloads about 150GB per day, so it probably uploads about 1TB a day, creating maybe 30 links per part per show.

I believe the red lines cross-outs refer to ddl's that are initially declined, that is, never existed.  I don't believe there is any ongoing checking for links that have expired.  It would be a waste of resources to try and poll which of the 150GB of links per day have expired over the months since they were issued.

If you want a show, you're better off just trying to see if it's still available.

It sounds like this is a question for Nyaa.  Nyaa has a list of rules.  You can rat him out, if you think he's breaking any.

Otherwise, as anon said, filter if you don't want to see his stuff.  And if you don't want his downloads, fine, who cares.  But I don't understand people like you who want to stop other people from downloading whatever they want.  Censors are the worst.

Thanks for the note.
Can't really figure out what's wrong at the moment, but looking into it.

Update: spent quite a bit of time looking at it, but really don't know what the problem is. May have just been the news server I'm posting to just randomly dropping messages. Though the pattern of failures makes that seem unlikely, but it seems to have magically fixed itself.
I probably should implement post checking and retry.

I think usenet downloading is buggered at the moment, a lot of the nzbs aren't complete for what was uploaded in the last 8 hours or so.

Yeah, I completely understand why you would want to leave it as it is.

What if you uploaded each episode with an individual title just as you would any single episode? That way indexers would get all of the episodes.
Then, just for your site, you could create a single NZB that contains all episodes.

>This means indexers should at least see the episodes separately as a collection, with the PAR2s.
They might, but I think that they might not. Binsearch is the exception, since it has basically no filter.

For Kantai Collection, an indexer would know that it has one file (it could be the first episode for example [1/20]), but it is still expecting the other 19 parts (which will never appear, since the text in the quotations is different).

If the indexer sees:
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [1/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection - 01 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][4AEFAE2A].mkv" yEnc (1/1900) 1458897068

It's going to be waiting for the other 19 parts that are exactly titled like this:
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [2/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection - 01 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][4AEFAE2A].mkv" yEnc (1/1900) 1458897068
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [3/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection - 01 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][4AEFAE2A].mkv" yEnc (1/1900) 1458897068

And unfortunately that means that most indexers won't even show the episode in the search results, since its only 5% complete, with 1/20 parts found.

The way the titles are formatted makes the indexer think that each episode consists of 20 parts, rather than the entire collection of episodes having 20 parts.

Sorry if this doesn't make sense, usenet lingo is 2confusing4me.

Thanks for that, really appreciate your suggestions!
I did want to leave the ability for one to selectively download individual episodes without being forced to download a whole batch (helps if you only need one, or want to watch earlier episodes whilst the rest is downloading). So I probably won't be combining them all into one file.

I've just changed how PAR2s are generated, so that each file gets its own set. This means indexers should at least see the episodes separately as a collection, with the PAR2s.

Unfortunately, I don't think there's much that can be done about grouping collections whilst leaving the ability to grab individual files, but since the text at the beginning is the same, hopefully when one searches, they'll find all the related files (indexers seem to allow one to create an NZB from multiple files with the checkbox feature).
But if you have any other ideas, please do post them.

Hey sorry,
just another issue with the usenet indexing.

When you're uploading a collection of episodes, you've been using a title like this:
---
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [1/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection - 01 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][4AEFAE2A].mkv" yEnc (1/1900) 1458897068
---
Which, to be perfectly honest, makes a lot of sense.

The problem is, that idiots in other newsgroups (and in the anime groups a.b.anime and a.b.m.anime) tend to put advertisements before the part indicator at the start.
A lot of shit gets posted, like this:
[ TOWN ]-[ www.town.ag ]-[ ANIME ]-[Usenet Provider >> www.ssl-news.info <<] [02/17] - "[Pur...Innocen].Heavy.Object.-.04.[720p][8A2E0089].part01.rar" - 581,19 MB yEnc (1/137)
Thankfully they didn't put their ad crap in the section enclosed by quotations, so it was easy enough to get a real title (in this case "[Pur...Innocen] Heavy Object - 04 [720p][8A2E0089]").

This means the vast majority of indexers completely ignore the section unenclosed by quotations at the start (except for the part indicator).

What this means is that your collections don't get indexed properly, even though its a smart way to format the title for collections.
What ends up happening is each of the episodes you upload are seen as individual files, and don't get grouped together. Instead of being able to create one NZB for [Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC], the indexers will create incomplete/unfinished NZBs for the individual episodes.

If you look on binsearch, you should see whats happening:
http://binsearch.info/?q=kantai collec...00&server=

I think most posters tend to compress the collection, and split it into a number of .rar files.
For example, the Kantai Collection might become:
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [1/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC].001" yEnc (1/1900)
[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC] [1/20] - "[Tsundere] Kantai Collection [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC].002" yEnc (1/1900)

etc...

Hopefully that made sense!
