This account can only download-it cannot upload new tags or siblings/parents. That old shared account is now a 'read-only' account. As the PTR became more popular, and more sophisticated and automatically generated content was being added, it became increasingly difficult for the janitors to separate good submissions from bad and undo large scale mistakes. Everyone was essentially the same Anon, and all uploads were merged to that one ID. There also used to be just one user account that everyone shared. It grew to 650 million tags, and siblings and parents were just getting complicated, and I no longer had the bandwidth or time it deserved. The client will never connect anywhere until you tell it to.įor a long time, I ran the Public Tag Repository myself and was the lone janitor. I don't like it when programs I use connect anywhere without asking me, so I have purposely not pre-baked any default repositories into the client.

The PTR is now run by users with more bandwidth than I had to give, so the bandwidth limits are gone! If you would like to talk with the new management, please check the discord.Ī guide and schema for the new PTR is here.
