    “Titles”? It’s not a title, it’s a file name that contains a lot of details about the rip. In the post’s example it tells you that it’s the movie Split, ripped from blu ray, in 1080p, with audio tracks in Italian and English, and encoded in x265. You probably would hate a lot more not being able to tell the difference between split.mp4 recorded on my cellphone in the movie theater and split.mp4 in ultra hd 4k ripped straight from Netflix.

      Lol, okay. Calm down buddy. What I do doesn’t affect you. The torrent description let’s me know all that too, I just hate having those file names in my library, looks messy and it’s less easy for my eyes to browse quickly.

        I mean I never told you not to rename them lmfao. You just said “I can’t stand the titles on torrents” like people just made these really long filenames for shits and giggles. Also lots of torrent sites will feature several different kinds of rips. It’s not very convenient on the back end to have all rips of the same movie have the same file name.

        Also “calm down”? Idk I thought I gave a pretty chill explanation of why things are the way they are but sorry if it didn’t come across that way.

          These days, it feels like one needs a disclaimer for every opinion or fact just to avoid setting someone off. I feel like it discourages open conversation…
