For those of you just joining us: Matthew Orts, a singer-songwriter so totally devoid of talent he can't even give his music away is so incensed that not one of the tens of millions of people who use the Pirate Bay is interested in his music that he has embarked on a quixotic quest to have the sole, unnoticed and unremarked torrent withdrawn from the obscurity in which it is currently languishing.

So far he has:

• rebuked the uploader for uploading without permission and asked him to delete it,
  
• asked us to delete it,
  
• asked us how long we are going to take to delete it,
  
• been told by an admin it won't be removed
  
• reported it as fake
  
• been told again it won't be removed
  
• advised us that it was uploaded without permission,
  
• rebuked us for having a forum where people can report fakes and infected torrents when we won't delete torrents uploaded without permission
  
• rebuked us for being rude and unhelpful
  
• informed us that the evident lack of interest was damaging his reputation
  
• been told by a second admin that it won't be removed
  
• repeated his explanation that it was uploaded without his permission, is no longer being downloaded and that the uploader is being un-cooperative
  
• been told by a third admin that it won't be removed
  
• been warned to stop wasting our time
  
• interrupted Kanye's thread to announce that he wants his torrent deleted too
  
• been banned
  
• created a puppet account to post multiple comments describing the torrent as useless
  

Tuneless Matt has now threatened legal action.

We are quaking in our boots but unfortunately for Matt it with laughter, not fear.

Matt, if you're out there...listening somewhere...crying into your low-alcohol beer...give it up buddy...you're not famous enough (you're not famous at all) for the streisand effect to kick in...so this is a complete waste of your time. The torrent is not going to be deleted, and nobody is ever going to download it.

And there are no more seasons of American Idol...so you're going to be flipping burgers for the rest of your life. Get used to it.

He also joined our IRC chan last night and demanded we remove the torrent.

<Matt_> I want it gone!

At least with the halfwit having posted in the Kanye West Declares War on TPB thread, he should know what to expect from our legal department.

You know fellow pirates. you get more bees with honey then vinegar.  
We are in the right here. Copyright should be abolished and a better alternative should be put in place.
You don't need to stoop down to Matthew Orts level and attack him.
It just makes everyone that shares look bad.  I understand these people are trying to destroy sharing, they are trying to fine and jail us. I get that you feel attacked.  But we are better than them.   Instead, of attacking Mr. Orts, lets not lose our tempers.  Lets try to reason with him.

Mr. Orts, I would suggest that you study the detrimental long term effect that copyright has on technology and science. How people in my country, Russia, cannot get access to research for their own work because each article costs 15$  How organizations like Sci-Hub are creating a pirate bay of scientific paper, freeing scientific information for the world to build upon.  I have many books I would be happy to share with you.

Also look into Aaron Swartz, who killed himself because of severe draconian government persecution after he tried to share scientific and research papers with the world.

You should not be mad at these emotional males who like to taunt you like five year old school bullies, you should be mad at a greedy short sighted system which stifles innovation and refuses to set up real alternatives to copyright https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Alternatives

Instead, of attacking Mr. Orts, lets not lose our tempers.  Lets try to reason with him.

It's easy to pass judgement on others when you're not behind the scenes dealing with these issues yourself.

We've been trying to reason with the OP for 4 weeks. We've been diplomatic, patient, and fair when responding.

You can see in the list above some of the things we've been dealing with, but we don't have to justify ourselves or our responses to anyone, and while I applaud your attempt to educate the OP, take it from me - he won't listen and is not interested in anything any of us have to say. The OP doesn't care about pirating issues, copyright issues, TPB or its refusal to take down legit torrents, this forum, the opinions of staff/crew or any of the forum's members. Some people have a very hard time dealing with the word 'No,' the OP is one of them.

TPB has not, and will not remove legit torrents because they were uploaded without permission. The answer is the same if a removal request is submitted by a Hollywood studio wanting the latest blockbuster deleting, or the OP wanting soemone else's torrent be removed - no. That's it, plain and simple to understand for the majority of people, but for the stubborn and angry OP, he refuses to listen and it'll only be a matter of time before he posts another thread, perhaps using another puppet account, repeating the same question ad infinitum: when can you remove this torrent?

If he had a functional brain cell, he would just seed the torrent himself so people could download it and judge for themselves if his career was worth supporting.
