No User Comments Via Proxy
#1
Hi guys,

Apologies first, as I'm sure this must have been discussed, but I couldn't find via search (google or supr bay).

I'm in the UK so have to access tpb via proxy. I've never been able to post comments via proxy, fair enough, but until recently I could read them which is necessary to ascertain a/v scores when deciding whether to d/l.

Recently though comments aren't being displayed via any proxy I use. I just get a list of comment pages and whatever number I click on just takes me to top of the torrent page, so no users comments coming up at all.

Is there a way around this? perhaps a proxy that is known to display users comments.

Thanks

When using proxy (I use Tor)

When logging into TPB are you going in via https://thepiratebay.se/

As far as I know it has to be thepiratebay.se/ to be able to comment.

As this is not a Site Issue (the proxies have nothing to with TPB or SB), I'm moving this to the Online Privacy & Censorship Busting forum, where maybe someone can provide a working proxy for the UK, that displays the comments.

I had a quick glance round but none of them display them, although this general proxy site displays some comments providing there's not too many, but won't display any of the comments on the Top 100:

When I click that link I get 'secure connection failed'. I usually go via PBPL pirate bay proxy list, then click - UK bay, or any of them really, germany bay, argentina bay, they're all the same now - no comments displayed. I'm sure they used to come up until fairly recently.

(Just tried the 'se' link again via google and it comes up - blocked by BPI. So if what you say is correct I guess I'm stuffed.

But as I say, I feel like it's changed recently.

snilloc - OP is asking for a proxy that displays the comments on torrents, nothing more.

I appreciate you taking the time to glance around. Most of what I'd be looking at is top 100 though.

I've been toying with the idea of getting tor but when I read up someone said the authorities are more likely to keep an eye on you if you use, which put me off a bit. But this is the sort of issue that could put me back on.

Just to clarify, do you get comments displayed when you access tpb through tor?

Just found one that displays the comments, even in the Top 100 categories:

http://pirateproxy.bz/

example:

http://pirateproxy.bz/torrent/10788864/M...p_XviD-MAX

That's perfect, problem sorted. Very much appreciated. Cool

Note that the pagination of the comments is controlled by javascript, so any proxy which blocks scripts (which some of them have a checkbox to do/not do) will knock out the comments.

A workaround/pro-tip if you like to call it that would be to create a custom search in your browser which accepts the torrent id as a search parameter and then pulls up the full (non paginated) comments page:

eg. https://thepiratebay.se/torrent/4901958/The.Sims.3-RELOADED

and https://thepiratebay.se/ajax_details_comments.php?id=4901958
