***Provide both an acceptable justification and the requested display name in your PM. Requests that fail to provide either will be ignored. This can take a couple of days; do not send multiple PMs or contact other moderators about this.
***Having one's name changed by the administrator counts as having used their yearly change.
**The display name will change for all system readouts, but there can be up to a 24 hour delay before all readouts use the new name. Forum edits, quotes and similar retain the display name that was used at the time.
**Your log-in username will not change and cannot be changed.

*'''I changed my username but the new name only shows up on the forums / galleries!'''
**This is due to database caching. It takes up to 24 hours for all caches to be refreshed.

*'''Certain characters in my username are not being permitted!'''
**Database sanitization. Suspicious usernames also potentially flag users as attempting to scam or impersonate other users or to abuse the system in some way. This may lead to a permanent [[ban]].

*'''I want to use more than 1 account!'''
**You may only have 1 active account. <span style="color:red">Multi-accounting for any reason will result in a [[ban]].</span>

*<span id="lockdown"></span>'''My account entered a lockdown!'''
**Accounts will enter a 24-hour security lockdown under certain conditions, including changing passwords.

<div id="images"></div><div id="image"></div><div id="Images"></div>
*'''Images are not loading.'''
**Check your browser settings:
***Make sure you are using a [[#browser|modern browser]].
***Disable any proxies, add-ons, or scripts. <span style="color:red">'''There is no 3rd party software needed to access ANYTHING in E-Hentai or its related domains. Anything claiming otherwise may be an attempt to intercept your account credentials.'''</span>
***Due to the [[Hentai@Home]] system images require cross network traffic:
****[[Image:Firefox.png]] [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=201984 Firefox 51-57]: disable HSTS priming (''"security.mixed_content.send_hsts_priming"'' and ''"security.mixed_content.use_hsts"'' to ''"false"'').<br>Firefox 65+: If content blocking cannot be disabled for the site use the Strict or Custom setting (''"browser.contentblocking.control-center.ui.showAllowedLabels"'' to ''"true"'').
****[[Image:Opera.png]] Opera: enable Cross Network Navigation (''opera:config#Network|AllowCrossNetworkNavigation'').
****For [https://noscript.net/ NoScript] disable ABE or enable local resources to be accessed by "e-hentai.org".

**Try the "Click here if the image fails loading" link. This will attempt to pull the image from a new [[H@H]] client.
**Select "Default port clients only" in your [[My Settings]] page; this will only utilize [[H@H]] clients that use port 443.
**[[Donator]]s may append "?nl=1" to the end of the URL. This bypasses using the [[H@H]] cluster for that image. This can be permanently enabled via the [[My Settings]] page but this can quickly use up your bandwidth limit.
**Turn off any [[#Common Problematic Software|problematic software]] which may block E-H traffic.
*'''Images sometimes take a long time to load.'''
**If your ISP does not support IPv6, your browser may try to use IPv6 anyway, causing a 5+ second stall+timeout per image load.
***Firefox: Disable IPv6 by opening about:config then set network.dns.disableIPv6 to true
***Chrome: Disable IPv6 by starting Chrome with --disable-ipv6
*'''Thumbnails are not loading.'''
**Many adblockers have subscription-based rules that include an '''/ad/''' or '''^ad^''' filtering rule. This will catch '''all''' hexadecimal static ranges with /ad/ in them (e.g. /{00..ff}/ad/ or /ad/{00..ff}).
***Whitelist '''ehgt.org''' for the '''image''' content type or disable adblockers for the site.
***Disable any scripts/add-ons such as RequestPolicy and Smart Referrer.
*'''The image size is locked at 1280x even though I have selected a higher resolution in the settings!'''
**You may have triggered the site's anti-bot mechanism. This is likely due to the use of a heavily-abused VPN/proxy node.
***Try switching your IP address may resolve this issue.
***[[Donators]] will not be affected by this limit.
<div id="509"></div><div id="509"></div>
*'''"Error 509 - Bandwidth Exceeded"'''
*'''"Error loading image: Could not get dispatch for image"'''
**<span id="image limit">You have viewed too many images. Either wait a few hours, [[My Home#Overview|reset the limit]] with [[GP]], or purchase the "More Pages" [[Hath Perk]].
**If you are on a shared connection consider using a proxy to browse E-Hentai.
**These limits are based only on IP address, not by account. The exception is for [[donators]] with [[stars]], wherein IPs are ignored.
<div id="414"></div>
*'''"Error 414 - Request-URI Too Large"'''
**Occurs if the URL being accessed is too long, often from advanced [[Searching|searches]].
***Depending on your search you can safely remove any non-relevant search parameters contained within the URL.
**You have performed a [[Searching#File_Search|file search]] that found too many results.
*'''"Please wait a bit longer between each file search."'''
**You have tried to do another [[Searching#File_Search|file search]] too quickly after the previous one. Wait 10 seconds before trying again.

*'''"The connection to the server was canceled during the page load."'''
**Your connection was automatically blocked for making too many connections.
**Wait for the ban to expire.

*'''<span id="image limit vpn">"I have used up my image quota even though I haven't been browsing."'''
**You are using a shared IP. This may be because of a proxy/VPN, or your ISP has recycled a recently used IP to you.
**A $20 [[donation]] or the "More Pages" [[Hath Perk]] ties the image limits to your account instead of your IP.

*'''"Content Warning - This gallery has been flagged as Offensive For Everyone. Due to its content, it should not be viewed by anyone. (And if you choose to ignore this warning, you lose all rights to complain about it in the future.)'''"
**This indicates that the gallery has been [[tagged]] with [[guro]], [[snuff]], or [[scat]]. You may choose to view the gallery, no longer receive these warnings ("Never Warn Me Again"), or go to the gallery front page.
**To re-enable this warning again simply delete the "nw" cookie.

*'''Thumbnails appear with inverted colors.'''
**This is a rare glitch which resolves itself over time. The actual images should appear as normal when viewed.

*'''"The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server."'''
**Check if you are on an ISP-level proxy [https://www.toolsvoid.com/proxy-test/ here]. Reverse proxies cannot be detected with tools like these; you may need to ask your ISP.
**Check if your browser settings have a proxy enabled.

<div id="fast"></div><div id="Fast"></div>
*'''"You are opening pages too fast, thus placing a heavy load on the server. Back down, or your IP address will be automatically banned."'''
**[[Image:Chrome.png]] This may be triggered by prefetching in Chrome; uncheck ''Settings -> Show advanced settings -> Privacy -> "Use a prediction service to load pages more quickly."''
**This may be triggered by add-ons/scripts that organize/update bookmarks to galleries automatically; such actions may induce page loads.

<div id="Ban"></div><div id="Banned"></div>
*'''"Your IP address has been temporarily banned for excessive pageloads which indicates that you are using automated mirroring/harvesting software."'''
**You have opened too many pages at once or you have used software that downloaded too many images from the site simultaneously.
***Wait until the ban expires.
**If you are certain that you have not performed excessive page loads your IP may be in use by other people.
***A $20 [[donation]] makes your account ignore any IP restrictions caused by other users.

*'''"Key missing, or incorrect key provided."'''
**The URL you are visiting is incorrect.

*'''When I save an image I only get blank.gif!'''
**The image did not have enough time to load. The blank.gif is a placeholder shown while waiting for image retrieval.

*'''I cannot rate a gallery!'''
**Sometimes the [[rating]] UI does not respond due to server congestion, try again later.
**You cannot rate your own galleries.
**You may be banned from [[rating]] galleries. You will receive a pop-up notification if this is the case.

*'''I am being redirected to other sites!'''
**Make sure you typed the URL correctly or that the link you followed has it spelled correctly.
**Check with your ISP about any blocked or redirected traffic.
**Any countries / territories noted [[:File:Countries_Blocking_E-Hentai.png|here]] are known to block E-Hentai.org.
**Check for malware such as browser hijacks.

**You are not on the Access Control List of the tool you are attempting to use.
***For most users the [[Gallery_Tagging#Tag_History|tag history tool]] can only be used to check one's ''own'' tagging history.
***Please contact a [[E-Hentai Janitor|moderator]] if you wish to have something done via said tool.
**This may also happen if you are using outdated URLs for the [[expunge]]/[[rename]] tracker (e.g., tools.php). Update your bookmarked links with the ones displayed on the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/ forums].

*'''"Gallery not found. If you just added this gallery, you may have to wait a short while before it becomes available. It might also have been reverted to its previous version."'''
**The gallery you are attempting to visit is not yet fully integrated into the server. If this persists the gallery link is faulty.
**Alternatively, the gallery was reverted to a previous state, check its parent gallery.

====<span style="color:#977933">Common Problematic Software</span>====
*Ghostery, PeerGuardian, PeerBlock, Protowall, Megakey, Transmission ([[torrent]] client), DuckDuckGOPrivacy (the plugin - you need to whitelist EH to see content), DuckDuckGo, DansGuardian, SquidGuard, HackShield (used as part of some MMOs).
*Any global/browser-based IP blockers can cause problems. For P2P applications use directly loaded IP lists.
*Any "web accelerators" or pre-fetching can cause routing issues (E-Hentai's [[IPs]] are not static).

===Gallery Not Available===
<div id="removed"></div><div id="Removed"></div>
*'''"This gallery has been removed or is unavailable."'''
**This is '''not''' the same as a gallery being deleted or [[expunged]].
**'''<span style="color:red">Do NOT re-upload it.</span>'''

*'''"This gallery is unavailable due to a copyright claim by {copyright holder}. Sorry about that."'''
**The gallery has been removed due to a DMCA takedown notice.
**'''<span style="color:red">Repeated attempts to re-upload galleries of this nature will lead to a [[Bans|ban]].</span>'''

===Your Galleries===
*'''My gallery disappeared!'''
**This is almost never due to a technical problem.
**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. If so, the reason it is not visible will be indicated there.
**Attempt to visit a direct link to your gallery.

<div id="expunged"><div id="Expunged"><div id="expunge"><div id="Expunge">
*'''My gallery was [[expunged]] unfairly!'''
**Check the gallery's expunge log for the reason(s).
**Make sure it was [[expunged]] and not removed or deleted. Each of these happen for very different reasons.
**Post the gallery's URL [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 here] to inquire about it.

*'''<span id="delete gallery">I cannot delete my gallery!'''
**This is intentional. [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Once a gallery has been published, it belongs to the community].
**A gallery may instead be [[My Galleries#Available Actions|disowned]] if the uploader wishes to remove association.
**<span style="color:red">'''False expunges will lead to a ban and the gallery reverted to its previous state.'''</span>

*'''<span id="cant upload">I cannot publish my gallery.'''
**Before publishing a gallery or a gallery update you must first read the [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Terms of Service] and check the corresponding box, then choose a sorting order. If you do not wish to re-order, click "Apply with Current Ordering".

*'''My gallery has an incorrect name or [[category]]!'''
**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. The default category is [[Doujinshi]].
***If so, you may rename or re-categorize it from there.
***If a [[Renaming|rename petition]] was successful on your gallery but the name is still unsatisfactory, you may insert another petition option. Should this new option reach higher [[power]], the name will change over.

*'''I cannot [[rename]] my gallery from the [[Gallery Manager]]!'''
**This action is only permitted from the manager for 24 hours after publishing.
**A successful [[Renaming|rename petition]] was done on your gallery. See the above issue.
**[[Expunged]] galleries cannot be renamed in this manner.

*'''"You can no longer change the [[category]] of this gallery."'''
**The gallery has had its [[category]] changed via [[tagging]]. If the [[category]] is still unsatisfactory report it as a [[#Gallery Tagging|mistag]].

*'''"You cannot unlock galleries this old. Please make a new one, then request to have this one expunged."'''
**You are attempting to [[Making_Galleries#Updating|update]] an aged gallery (i.e., 365 days after its last publishing). Such galleries cannot have their files modified.
**Any necessary changes require re-uploading and replacement [[expunging]] the existing gallery. This starts a brand new gallery chain without any of the previous gallery's metadata.

*'''I'm afraid I can't let you do that.'''
*'''That gallery has been marked as deleted, and can no longer be modified.'''
**You are attempting to modify or delete a gallery that cannot or can no longer be deleted.
***This also applies to properly replaced galleries and is working as intended.

*'''"Could not rate gallery. Reason: You cannot rate your own gallery."'''
**Self-explanatory.

*'''"Could not obtain lock on gallery - if you are not running any active operations on this gallery, please wait about 15 minutes for the lock to expire."'''
**Occurs when a gallery being uploaded / managed is in the middle of being processed by the server. Please wait and try again later.
**Also occurs to galleries that were reverted to a previous state, thus the URL entered is no longer valid.

*'''My gallery has missing, unwanted, or wrongly ordered images!'''
**You can add, remove, and modify the order of all your gallery's images via the [[Gallery Manager]].
***Note that you may only update a gallery twice per every 30 days (some exceptions apply).
****This limit does not apply to unpublished / [[private]] galleries.
<div id="order"></div><div id="Order"></div><div id="out of order"></div>
*'''When people download my gallery the files are in the wrong order!'''
**Downloaded galleries use the filenames of the files ''when they were uploaded'', so they may be out of order even if you corrected the order manually via the gallery maintenance UI.
**Rename your files to the correct order '''''before''''' uploading them (''e.g. 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc.'') to avoid this problem.
***This is further recommended since different OSes [https://support.microsoft.com/kb/319827 sort files differently].
<div id="rating"></div><div id="Rating"></div>

*'''<span id="bad ratings">People are giving my galleries low [[ratings]]!'''
**They are entitled to their opinions. Furthermore, ratings do not affect how well a gallery fares.
**Votes that deviate too much from the average rating are automatically discarded. This process is retroactive. Ratings, [[tags]] and [[favorites]] also carry over across all non-aged gallery updates.

*'''My gallery files are being resampled and converted to WEBP!'''
**This is intended for [[Making_Galleries#Limits|files over 10MB in size]]. A link still allows you to download the original source at a cost of 10 image hits per MB.

*'''My gallery's stats show low/no hits!'''
**Gallery stats are updated every ~4 hours. Please wait and check again later.

====[[Uploading]]====
*'''My uploads seem unusually slow.'''
*'''I am stuck on "Processing..."'''
**Try to upload your images in ZIP or RAR archives. Uploading a small amount of larger files is faster than many smaller files. Break your upload into smaller portions.
***To prevent [[out of order]] situations either prefix filenames (the same way the [[Archiver]] would) or upload archives sequentially.
**Disable any software that uses upload bandwidth while you are uploading to the site.

*'''Images appear outside of the scope / keep reappearing and I can't save changes!'''
*'''I've uploaded files but the gallery is empty!'''
*'''"The gallery is busy processing another task. Please wait until it is done before uploading more files."'''
**The recommended maximum data you should upload in a single instance is 500 MB. Do not upload more than <span title="1,258,291,200 bytes" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">1,200 MB</span> in a single instance.
**Do not upload in multiple tabs/windows at the same time; the files are liable to be discarded.
***Uploading files to different galleries simultaneously is also not recommended.

*'''My files take a lot of time to be processed.'''
**All files require indexing and thumbnail generation. PNG files additionally require decompression. Please be patient.
**It is recommended to use zero-compression (Store) ZIP/RAR archives; the filesize difference is negligible whilst processing will be much faster.

*'''"Could not retrieve lock for gallery"'''
*'''"The gallery has been deleted"'''
**You are trying to upload files to the wrong gallery chain (replaced chain) or a deleted gallery.

*'''"Upload is temporarily unavailable."'''
**The upload server is under maintenance. Please wait and try again later.

*'''"The file {filename} is corrupt, incomplete, too large, or not an accepted image file."'''
**Make sure the file is of an [[Making_Galleries#Limits|accepted format and is not over the size limit]], is not corrupt, and is not named with [[Making_Galleries#Checking|unacceptable characters]].

**This is an aesthetic issue. [[Image:WindowsOS.png]] If the Themes service is disabled on a Windows OS and a client is running in the H@H GUI this error will happen whenever it is given focus as it fails to parse themes.
**Use the command-line client or enable the Themes service.

*'''"Cache Handler: cannot meet space constraints: Disk free space limit reached."'''
**Your free disk space was detected as too low. The client will stop getting new files until this is remedied.
**Change your disk space setting ("Minimum space to leave on disk") (minimum 100 MB even if not set) or remove non-H@H files from the drive that H@H uses.

*'''I'm having high memory usage running H@H under OpenVZ!'''
**Because of how OpenVZ calculates resident memory size H@H can appear to use as much as 1 GB of RAM even though its actual resident memory size is usually 50-100 MB.
**There is no known workaround at this time.

*'''My client's country on the H@H status page is shown in <span style="color:#ff0000">red</span>!'''
**Your client has been moved from its first-time startup location ("''home region''") to a different region. e.g., the client started in the United States, then moved to Japan at a later point.
**When the system detects that a client is operating outside of its ''home region'', this will have multiple effects<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=234458&view=findpost&p=6376141]</sup>:
***Clients outside the ''home region'' will no longer be assigned new [[Hentai@Home#Static_Ranges|ranges]] or be considered for range priority promotions.
***If there are multiple clients with the same range/priority in the region, clients outside its ''home region'' will always be demoted first, and the client in the ''home region'' will be preferred for routing traffic.
***No [[Hath]] will be awarded for clients located outside of its ''home region''.
**To resolve this, you will need to contact [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showuser=6 Tenboro] directly. Note that in most cases, resetting the ''home region'' of an H@H client will result in the demotion of all of the client's P1 ranges to P2 to allow the system to optimally rebalance range priority.
**This may also happen if the auto-detected country is simply wrong. In this case, a geolocation override may be applied without the demotion of [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority ranges]].

Hentai@Home

2024-12-08T17:56:49Z

Tenboro:

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. The current version can be found in the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 update announcement thread].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

==Signing Up==

===Obtaining Client Keys===
Users wishing to sign up for their first client can apply from the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php Hentai@Home page] in their [[My Home]] area. Applications are typically processed in less than a day.

For any additional clients you will need to [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=6 PM Tenboro]. For users wishing to run more than 5 clients the average stable quality of their existing clients must be 7,000+ before more keys are assigned.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections (capped at 500)''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*If a limit is set, '''the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.'''
**<span style="color:#ff0000">'''If set below 5000 GB/month, the client will not be assigned any [[Hentai@Home#High-Capacity_Ranges|high-capacity ranges]], and all previously assigned high-capacity ranges will be removed ''immediately''.'''</span>

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Static ranges are divided into priority levels, where P1, P2 and P3 are considered "active" ranges. The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority if the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

The final priority level P4 is for "dead" ranges that previously active ranges can be demoted to, for example if the client if offline for an extended period of time.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client should maintain a high tested speed and [[quality]] value, and have as high uptime as possible. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Clients cannot be assigned more ranges if they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or at least 10000 GB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] below 5000 GB/month or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating Hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*If the quality drops below 2000, the client will stop receiving traffic until it recovers.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily [[Hath]] earned per client is based on the following formula:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_served_per_minute / 420) + 0.025 * active_rangecount + 0.05 * hicap_rangecount</pre>
*The contribution from assigned ranges is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set to <tt>tested_speed / 100 KB/s</tt>.
*The [[Hath]] is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.
*Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate [[Hath]].
*Clients will not receive any [[Hath]] if the [[Hentai@Home#Quality|quality]] drops below 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

Donation

2024-11-17T14:14:33Z

Tenboro: /* Buying Coins */

Donations allow users to support E-Hentai financially. The method for doing so is limited to mainstream cyptocurrencies.

==How-To==
# Convert funds to BitCoins (BTC) or Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
# Visit the [https://e-hentai.org/bitcoin.php Donation page].
# Send the desired amount of coins to the wallet on the page (unique to each user; note that this is a ''deposit-only wallet'' and cannot be used for any other purposes). BTC and BCH have different wallets. The E-Hentai wallet uses a [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bech32_adoption bech32 address] by default.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=237328&view=findpost&p=5655759]</sup>
# Enter an amount in USD to donate (can also be used to [[Adopt-A-Server]]).
# Coins in a user's E-Hentai wallet will be converted to USD at the time they are applied to a donation using the exchange rate shown on the Donation page. E-Hentai uses whichever is highest of the 7-day and 24-hour weighted averages provided by bitcoincharts.com plus a 10% bonus to cover for transaction fees and random volatility. It is recommended for those who have just purchased coins to complete the transfer ASAP.
# Users '''DO NOT''' need to send any PMs after the transaction has been confirmed; donations are credited automatically.

===Buying Coins===
'''Note:''' Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has considerably lower fees than Bitcoin (BTC), and is generally recommended.
*For potential sites to purchase cryptocurrency you can use [https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/ this site], or your preferred search engine.
*Check if your local area has a [https://bitcoinatmmap.com/ BitCoin ATM].
'''It is advised to check fees and restrictions of any service before depositing any money to it. Some services may have limits on the amount, or waiting periods for transferring or purchasing coins.'''

==[[Rewards]]==
*Donations are cumulative; e.g. if a user donates $20 then an additional $30 later on their account will reach the $50 donation level.
*[[Adopt-A-Server]] slots do '''NOT''' count towards a user's donation level.

===One-Time===
*10,000 [[credits]] per every dollar donated.

===Stars===
Stars are gained by reaching certain donation amounts. These rewards are permanent and cannot be deactivated. Possessing any applicable [[hath perks]] prior to receiving a star will result in a [[hath]] refund.

*Daily rewards are received by triggering a [[Dawn of a New Day]].
*The [[Mod Power]] bonus is added before the cap of 25; it cannot boost total mod power over the cap.
*The free [[archive]] quota is only usable on galleries uploaded in the last 365 days. Archives for older galleries will still charge GP/Credits.

Tag vetoers are classed as inactive for failing both of the below-listed requirements:
*Made at least 50 vigilante posts in the previous year at the time of the last active status tally
*Started at least 500 valid tags in the previous year at the time of the last active status tally

Extended inactivity may result in the vetoing privilege being revoked. Additionally, vetoers may also be removed if they are not reasonably active on the [[forums]].

Active status will be tallied from time to time, either annually or longer. Tallying may be postponed when there is an active tag vote, or one is expected to be held soon.

Donation

2024-08-08T17:03:50Z

Tenboro: /* Other Cryptocurrencies */

Donations allow users to support E-Hentai financially. The method for doing so is limited to mainstream cyptocurrencies.

==How-To==
# Convert funds to BitCoins (BTC) or Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
# Visit the [https://e-hentai.org/bitcoin.php Donation page].
# Send the desired amount of coins to the wallet on the page (unique to each user; note that this is a ''deposit-only wallet'' and cannot be used for any other purposes). BTC and BCH have different wallets. The E-Hentai wallet uses a [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bech32_adoption bech32 address] by default.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=237328&view=findpost&p=5655759]</sup>
# Enter an amount in USD to donate (can also be used to [[Adopt-A-Server]]).
# Coins in a user's E-Hentai wallet will be converted to USD at the time they are applied to a donation using the exchange rate shown on the Donation page. E-Hentai uses whichever is highest of the 7-day and 24-hour weighted averages provided by bitcoincharts.com plus a 10% bonus to cover for transaction fees and random volatility. It is recommended for those who have just purchased coins to complete the transfer ASAP.
# Users '''DO NOT''' need to send any PMs after the transaction has been confirmed; donations are credited automatically.

===Buying Coins===
'''Note:''' As at July 2023, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has considerably lower fees than Bitcoin (BTC), and is generally recommended.
*For potential sites to purchase cryptocurrency you can use [https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/ this site], or your preferred search engine.
**It is advised to check fees and costs of any service before using it. Some services may have limits on the amount, or waiting periods for, transferring or purchasing currencies.
*To buy from other individuals use [https://localbitcoins.com/ LocalBitcoins].
*Check if your local area has a [https://bitcoinatmmap.com/ BitCoin ATM].

==[[Rewards]]==
*Donations are cumulative; e.g. if a user donates $20 then an additional $30 later on their account will reach the $50 donation level.
*[[Adopt-A-Server]] slots do '''NOT''' count towards a user's donation level.

===One-Time===
*10,000 [[credits]] per every dollar donated.

===Stars===
Stars are gained by reaching certain donation amounts. These rewards are permanent and cannot be deactivated. Possessing any applicable [[hath perks]] prior to receiving a star will result in a [[hath]] refund.

*Daily rewards are received by triggering a [[Dawn of a New Day]].
*Weekly free [[archive]] amounts are filesize-based and do '''not''' apply to [[Archives#Costs|recreated archives]].
*The [[Mod Power]] bonus is part of the capped portion.

==Alternatives==
Users willing to spend money to support the site but who are unable to utilize Bitcoins may also consider [[Renting A Seedbox]].

<div id="Trading for Coins"></div>
===Trading for Bitcoins===
Users may exchange E-Hentai [[currencies]] or [[HentaiVerse]] assets for Bitcoins as long as they are sent directly to an E-Hentai wallet address. '''<span style="color:#FF0000">Any other trading for Bitcoins is not permitted.</span>''' Users may locate their E-Hentai wallet address via their [https://e-hentai.org/bitcoin.php Donation page]. Prices and potential trading partners may be found via the [[E-Hentai_Forums#WTB | WTB]] and [[E-Hentai_Forums#WTS | WTS]] subforums.

===Other Cryptocurrencies===
Native coins like Ethereum, Monero, Dogecoin, Litecoin, zCash, Cardano and Solana may also be used for donations. These are manually credited based on the value on [https://coinmarketcap.com/ CoinMarketCap] at the time the transaction is confirmed. For further instructions on these please [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=6 PM Tenboro].

====PayPal====
The direct use of PayPal is effectively impossible.
*PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy states that "''You may not use the PayPal service for activities that: (2) relate to transactions involving (h) items that infringe or violate any copyright, trademark, right of publicity or privacy or any other proprietary right under the laws of any jurisdiction, (i) certain sexually oriented materials or services.''"
*Accepting payments for "''providing file sharing services''" explicitly requires pre-approval from PayPal.
*"''Digital Goods – PayPal prohibits all account holders from buying or selling '''sexually oriented digital goods''', including downloadable pictures or videos, subscriptions to websites, or other content delivered through a digital medium.''"
*"''If you violate the Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to the above actions you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal’s damages caused by your violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You acknowledge and agree that '''$2,500.00 USD per violation''' of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated because due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing Balance in the offending Account, or any other Account you control.''"

Users who wish to use PayPal or other third-party services to acquire Bitcoins may do so via [https://99bitcoins.com/buy-bitcoin/paypal/ various exchanges].

Donation

2024-02-26T08:11:48Z

Tenboro: /* Stars */

Donations allow users to support E-Hentai financially. The method for doing so is limited to mainstream cyptocurrencies.

==How-To==
# Convert funds to BitCoins (BTC) or Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
# Visit the [https://e-hentai.org/bitcoin.php Donation page].
# Send the desired amount of coins to the wallet on the page (unique to each user; note that this is a ''deposit-only wallet'' and cannot be used for any other purposes). BTC and BCH have different wallets. The E-Hentai wallet uses a [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bech32_adoption bech32 address] by default.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=237328&view=findpost&p=5655759]</sup>
# Enter an amount in USD to donate (can also be used to [[Adopt-A-Server]]).
# Coins in a user's E-Hentai wallet will be converted to USD at the time they are applied to a donation using the exchange rate shown on the Donation page. E-Hentai uses whichever is highest of the 7-day and 24-hour weighted averages provided by bitcoincharts.com plus a 10% bonus to cover for transaction fees and random volatility. It is recommended for those who have just purchased coins to complete the transfer ASAP.
# Users '''DO NOT''' need to send any PMs after the transaction has been confirmed; donations are credited automatically.

===Buying Coins===
'''Note:''' As at July 2023, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has considerably lower fees than Bitcoin (BTC), and is generally recommended.
*For potential sites to purchase cryptocurrency you can use [https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/ this site], or your preferred search engine.
**It is advised to check fees and costs of any service before using it. Some services may have limits on the amount, or waiting periods for, transferring or purchasing currencies.
*To buy from other individuals use [https://localbitcoins.com/ LocalBitcoins].
*Check if your local area has a [https://bitcoinatmmap.com/ BitCoin ATM].

==[[Rewards]]==
*Donations are cumulative; e.g. if a user donates $20 then an additional $30 later on their account will reach the $50 donation level.
*[[Adopt-A-Server]] slots do '''NOT''' count towards a user's donation level.

===One-Time===
*10,000 [[credits]] per every dollar donated.

===Stars===
Stars are gained by reaching certain donation amounts. These rewards are permanent and cannot be deactivated. Possessing any applicable [[hath perks]] prior to receiving a star will result in a [[hath]] refund.

*Daily rewards are received by triggering a [[Dawn of a New Day]].
*Weekly free [[archive]] amounts are filesize-based and do '''not''' apply to [[Archives#Costs|recreated archives]].
*The [[Mod Power]] bonus is part of the capped portion.

===Trading for Bitcoins===
Users may exchange E-Hentai [[currencies]] or [[HentaiVerse]] assets for Bitcoins as long as they are sent directly to an E-Hentai wallet address. '''<span style="color:#FF0000">Any other trading for Bitcoins is not permitted.</span>''' Users may locate their E-Hentai wallet address via their [https://e-hentai.org/bitcoin.php Donation page].

====PayPal====
The direct use of PayPal is effectively impossible.
*PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy states that "''You may not use the PayPal service for activities that: (2) relate to transactions involving (h) items that infringe or violate any copyright, trademark, right of publicity or privacy or any other proprietary right under the laws of any jurisdiction, (i) certain sexually oriented materials or services.''"
*Accepting payments for "''providing file sharing services''" explicitly requires pre-approval from PayPal.
*"''Digital Goods – PayPal prohibits all account holders from buying or selling '''sexually oriented digital goods''', including downloadable pictures or videos, subscriptions to websites, or other content delivered through a digital medium.''"
*"''If you violate the Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to the above actions you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal’s damages caused by your violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You acknowledge and agree that '''$2,500.00 USD per violation''' of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated because due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing Balance in the offending Account, or any other Account you control.''"

Users who wish to use PayPal or other third-party services to acquire Bitcoins may do so via [https://99bitcoins.com/buy-bitcoin/paypal/ various exchanges].

**Select "Default port clients only" in your [[My Settings]] page; this will only utilize [[H@H]] clients that use port 443.
**[[Donator]]s may append "?nl=1" to the end of the URL. This bypasses using the [[H@H]] cluster for that image. This can be permanently enabled via the [[My Settings]] page but this can quickly use up your bandwidth limit.

**The gallery will likely be removed in due time, otherwise it will be returned to normal.

===Your Galleries===
*'''My gallery disappeared!'''
**This is almost never due to a technical problem.
**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. If so, the reason it is not visible will be indicated there.
**Attempt to visit a direct link to your gallery.

<div id="expunged"><div id="Expunged"><div id="expunge"><div id="Expunge">
*'''My gallery was [[expunged]] unfairly!'''
**Check the gallery's expunge log for the reason(s).
**Make sure it was [[expunged]] and not removed or deleted. Each of these happen for very different reasons.
**Post the gallery's URL [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 here] to inquire about it.

*'''<span id="delete gallery">I cannot delete my gallery!'''
**This is intentional. [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Once a gallery has been published, it belongs to the community].
**A gallery may instead be [[My Galleries#Available Actions|disowned]] if the uploader wishes to remove association.
**<span style="color:red">'''False expunges will lead to a ban and the gallery reverted to its previous state.'''</span>

*'''<span id="cant upload">I cannot publish my gallery.'''
**Before publishing a gallery or a gallery update you must first read the [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Terms of Service] and check the corresponding box, then choose a sorting order. If you do not wish to re-order, click "Apply with Current Ordering".

*'''My gallery has an incorrect name or [[category]]!'''
**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. The default category is [[Doujinshi]].
***If so, you may rename or re-categorize it from there.
***If a [[Renaming|rename petition]] was successful on your gallery but the name is still unsatisfactory, you may insert another petition option. Should this new option reach higher [[power]], the name will change over.

*'''I cannot [[rename]] my gallery from the [[Gallery Manager]]!'''
**This action is only permitted from the manager for 24 hours after publishing.
**A successful [[Renaming|rename petition]] was done on your gallery. See the above issue.
**[[Expunged]] galleries cannot be renamed in this manner.

*'''"You can no longer change the [[category]] of this gallery."'''
**The gallery has had its [[category]] changed via [[tagging]]. If the [[category]] is still unsatisfactory report it as a [[#Gallery Tagging|mistag]].

*'''I'm afraid I can't let you do that.'''
*'''That gallery has been marked as deleted, and can no longer be modified.'''
**You are attempting to modify or delete a gallery that cannot or can no longer be deleted.
***This also applies to properly replaced galleries and is working as intended.

*'''"Could not rate gallery. Reason: You cannot rate your own gallery."'''
**Self-explanatory.

*'''"Could not obtain lock on gallery - if you are not running any active operations on this gallery, please wait about 15 minutes for the lock to expire."'''
**Occurs when a gallery being uploaded / managed is in the middle of being processed by the server. Please wait and try again later.
**Also occurs to galleries that were reverted to a previous state, thus the URL entered is no longer valid.

*'''My gallery has missing, unwanted, or wrongly ordered images!'''
**You can add, remove, and modify the order of all your gallery's images via the [[Gallery Manager]].
***Note that you may only update a gallery twice per every 30 days (some exceptions apply).
****This limit does not apply to unpublished / [[private]] galleries.
<div id="order"></div><div id="Order"></div><div id="out of order"></div>
*'''When people download my gallery the files are in the wrong order!'''
**Downloaded galleries use the filenames of the files ''when they were uploaded'', so they may be out of order even if you corrected the order manually via the gallery maintenance UI.
**Rename your files to the correct order '''''before''''' uploading them (''e.g. 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc.'') to avoid this problem.
***This is further recommended since different OSes [https://support.microsoft.com/kb/319827 sort files differently].
<div id="rating"></div><div id="Rating"></div>

*'''<span id="bad ratings">People are giving my galleries low [[ratings]]!'''
**They are entitled to their opinions. Furthermore, ratings do not affect how well a gallery fares.
**Votes that deviate too much from the average rating are automatically discarded. This process is retroactive. Ratings, [[tags]] and [[favorites]] also carry over across all non-aged gallery updates.

*'''My gallery files are being resampled and converted to JPG!'''
**This is intended for [[Making_Galleries#Limits|files over 10MB in size]]. A link still allows you to download the original source at a cost of 5 image hits per MB.

*'''My gallery's stats show low/no hits!'''
**Gallery stats are updated every ~4 hours. Please wait and check again later.

====[[Uploading]]====
*'''My uploads seem unusually slow.'''
*'''I am stuck on "Processing..."'''
**Try to upload your images in ZIP or RAR archives. Uploading a small amount of larger files is faster than many smaller files. Break your upload into smaller portions.
***To prevent [[out of order]] situations either prefix filenames (the same way the [[Archiver]] would) or upload archives sequentially.
**Disable any software that uses upload bandwidth while you are uploading to the site.

*'''Images appear outside of the scope / keep reappearing and I can't save changes!'''
*'''I've uploaded files but the gallery is empty!'''
*'''"The gallery is busy processing another task. Please wait until it is done before uploading more files."'''
**The recommended maximum data you should upload in a single instance is 500 MB. Do not upload more than <span title="1,258,291,200 bytes" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">1,200 MB</span> in a single instance.
**Do not upload in multiple tabs/windows at the same time; the files are liable to be discarded.
***Uploading files to different galleries simultaneously is also not recommended.

*'''My files take a lot of time to be processed.'''
**All files require indexing and thumbnail generation. PNG files additionally require decompression. Please be patient.
**It is recommended to use zero-compression (Store) ZIP/RAR archives; the filesize difference is negligible whilst processing will be much faster.

*'''"Could not retrieve lock for gallery"'''
*'''"The gallery has been deleted"'''
**You are trying to upload files to the wrong gallery chain (replaced chain) or a deleted gallery.

*'''"Upload is temporarily unavailable."'''
**The upload server is under maintenance. Please wait and try again later.

*'''"The file {filename} is corrupt, incomplete, too large, or not an accepted image file."'''
**Make sure the file is of an [[Making_Galleries#Limits|accepted format and is not over the size limit]], is not corrupt, and is not named with [[Making_Galleries#Checking|unacceptable characters]].

*'''"{Filename} has been blacklisted on this system"'''
**Any file that causes this message should '''NOT''' be uploaded as it is [[DNP]].

*'''"You have been temporarily barred from [[Making Galleries|uploading]] and managing galleries. The bar expires in ''x'' hours."'''
**Too many of your galleries were [[expunged]], removed, or deleted.
**Wait for the ban to expire and do not create any more unacceptable uploads.

*'''"You have been [[banned]] from [[Making Galleries|submitting galleries]] to this system."'''
**Same as above, except permanent.

*'''"Rate limitation for new posters in effect. You have to wait a few hours before you can post more [[Making Galleries|galleries]]."'''
**There is a rate limit that compares your recent upload volume to your post history of good galleries, the calculation determines how many galleries you can publish in succession. Wait for the limit to expire.
***Private / Unlisted galleries do not count as "good". <sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=252404&view=findpost&p=6011165 (Ref)]</sup>

*'''"You have earlier uploaded and published a gallery identical to the one you are now trying to publish. This gallery has been removed, and you will now be redirected to the old, identical gallery. If that gallery had previous been marked as deleted, it is now available again. You will be returned to the Management Interface momentarily."'''
**You uploaded an exact copy of a gallery you have already uploaded and published.
**This will undelete a gallery if it was deleted by its owner.

*'''"You cannot add files to galleries that are older than twelve months. Please make a new one, then request to have this one expunged. You will be returned to the Management Interface momentarily."'''
**This is what is known as an [[aged]] gallery.
**[[Expunging#Replaced|Replace]] your gallery if it is truly necessary to make changes to it.

*'''"{Filename} was generated by this system and has been replaced with the original copy."'''
**The image uploaded is a thumbnail that was already generated by the system and thus was replaced by its original version.

*'''I cannot select 'Save Changes', 'Start Upload', or 'Publish Gallery' after deleting an image!'''
**Use one of the sorting buttons after making such changes to confirm them.

===[[Gallery Tagging]]===
*'''Some tag searches include additional results.'''
**Try using [[Gallery_Tagging#Exact_Tag_Searching|exact tag searching]].

*'''I cannot tag a gallery!'''
**The tag you are attempting to use may not be acceptable (e.g. too short or blacklisted).
**You may be banned from tagging galleries. You will receive a pop-up notification if this is the case.
**You may be attempting to upvote a downvoted tag (which may not give an error message). Be sure to read the tag's definition, [[Gallery Tagging|tagging guidelines]], or ask [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=274004 here] for upvotes.
**[[#Could Not Vote For Tag|See below]] for specific tagging error messages.

*'''I tried to tag something and it turned into a different tag!'''
**Your tag included non-alphanumeric characters which are not permitted. Only hyphens, periods, and spaces are allowed in tags.
**Due to the grouping system for tags any [[slave tag]] will become its respective master tag. If you are not satisfied with the grouping you may post [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 here] to discuss it.

*'''I cannot select a [[namespace]] for my tag!'''
**If you are certain it should be assigned a namespace please contact a [[E-Hentai VIP|namespacer]] or post [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 here].
***At least one instance of the temp tag must exist for it to be namespaced. If you cannot add the tag due to lack of [[power]] or if the tag already exists within another namespace please also link to a gallery where the tag would be a valid addition. If the tag does not pass [[presence]] for a gallery but will likely be used in the future (e.g. a [[character]] tag) please specify this in your post.
****If you forgot where you made the tag moderators have a listing for new tags created within the last 7 days along with the names of users who voted on them.

*'''I accidentally created a wrong tag!'''
**Simply withdraw your tag before someone else upvotes it. If it's too late and you cannot downvote the tag completely by yourself ask for assistance in [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=274004 this thread].

*'''"Server communication failed. Server responded with:"'''
**Connection timed out. Check your connection, wait a few seconds and try again.

*'''Someone is voting down my tags!'''
*'''My gallery has incorrect tags!'''
**Double-check the tag's definition and [[Gallery_Tagging#Usage_Guidelines|tagging guidelines]].
**Vote the tags up/down only if you are absolutely certain.
**Post the gallery's URL [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=274004 here]. Please do not accuse any users of mistagging or request any [[bans]].

<div id="temp tag pop-up warning"></div>
*'''"You about to vote up an older temp tag. You may be prompted to provide sources for this tag, which is required. Are you sure you want to do this?"'''

====Could Not Vote For Tag====
*'''"Could not vote for tag: Cannot vote for tag."'''
**The tag you are attempting to vote on [[Tagging_Mechanics#Tag_Mod_Power|requires]] additional [[mod power]]. This is to prevent poor handling of the tag by newer users.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} cannot be used."'''
**You are attempting to add/upvote a tag that is blocked or blacklisted.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag "{tagname}" is not allowed. Use {namespace}:{tagname} or {namespace}:{tagname}"'''
**The tag you are attempting to enter requires an accompanying [[namespace]]. The namespace must be one of the approved pairings for that particular tag.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag "{tagname}" is scheduled for an automated action and cannot currently be voted on."'''
**You are downvoting a tag that has been slaved or blacklisted by a [[VIP|moderator]]. This is not a required action as the autotagger will remove or replace these tags eventually.
**User may still withdraw their upvotes on a slaved/blocked tag should they have upvoted it before.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: Tags should be added on the most recent gallery in this chain."'''
**Only the most recent version of a gallery chain allows for tagging actions. The action will automatically be applied to all galleries in the chain.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: Invalid user"'''
**The API received an invalid user identification response while you were tagging.
***Your session may have expired. Use another browser or clear your cache/cookies.

**You have already voted for the tag in the corresponding direction or the tag has been suppressed by downvotes.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: You cannot possibly have taken the time to look at the gallery in that short time. You must wait 10 seconds between tagging different galleries."'''
**You attempted to vote on a tag on a gallery too quickly after doing so on a different gallery.
**This limit can be reduced with increased [[power]].

*'''"Could not vote for tag: User fault detected. Replace user and try again"'''
**You entered in the default text on the tag form ("Enter new tags, separated with comma").

*'''"Could not vote for tag: No effect"

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} has been vetoed on this gallery"'''
**The tag has been downvoted by at least 3 users with [[E-Hentai VIP|veto power]]. The tag can no longer be upvoted by other users after this has happened. If you believe that a tag has been vetoed incorrectly make an inquiry [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=274004 here].

*'''"Could not vote for tag: Tag cannot be downvoted"'''
**The tag cannot be downvoted by normal users. If you are confident that the tag in question is incorrect, make an inquiry [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=274004 here].

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} has never been used. Use temp:{tagname} to create a temporary tag."'''
**You are adding a [[Namespace#Restricted_Namespaces|temporary]] tag without defining the "temp" [[namespace]]. Please include "temp:" in front of the tag name.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} does not exist. You can request new tags in the Tag grouping and namespacing thread."'''
**The [[namespace]] you are attempting to use has not been approved by a moderator.
**This error also occurs when you are attempting to create a [[Namespace#Restricted_Namespaces|temporary tag]] with less than 15 [[mod power]], or with an active tag creation [[Bans|ban]].

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} has an invalid namespace."'''
**The [[namespace]] being used is not a correct one. Check your spelling.
**Make sure not to use a colon when tagging something except to indicate a namespace.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag {tagname} cannot be created here since it exists in the mixed or other namespace."'''
**The "misc" [[namespace]] has been replaced by "other" or "mixed" for all [[Fetish Listing | content/fetish tags]]. Please use the appropriate namespace.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=253042&view=findpost&p=6024889 (Ref)]</sup>

**The site may be experiencing [[#503|maintenance or other issues]].
**You may be attempting to use more than 4 simultaneous download threads. If using a download manager make sure that it does not exceed that amount.
**You may have exhausted your allowed download attempts.

*'''My download speed is much slower than expected!'''
**After ensuring the issue is not on your end, you may be downloading from a capped or saturated archive server due to various reasons.
***The issue can be mitigated by using segmented downloading (use at your own risk) or just being patient. Alternately, if a very healthy [[torrent]] is available, please consider using this option.
***It is not possible to change servers after the archive is generated. Available servers are randomly assigned upon request and the archive then is only valid for the assigned archive server.

*'''A gallery I downloaded says "Unexpected end of archive."'''
**The download was interrupted at some point. Please try to download it again.

*'''"IP quota exhausted"'''
**Too many addresses from the same IP range tried downloading the same [[archive]].

**Self-explanatory.

*'''"You have clocked too many downloaded bytes on this gallery."'''
**You download the same gallery's archive multiple times or the prior downloads kept failing and restarting. Cancel the download session and repurchase the archive.
**You downloaded the original archive and are now trying to download the resampled archive. Sometimes this errors, use the cancel button and repurchase the archive.

===[[Renaming]]===
*'''Someone else's gallery has an incorrect name or [[category]]!'''
**See [[Renaming]] for name changing.
**See [[Gallery Tagging#Categories|Gallery Tagging - Categories]] for category changing.

**You attempted to add a [[rename]] petition with the same text as an existing one for that gallery.

*'''"New suggested title is too short."'''
**You attempted to add a blank name as a [[rename]] petition. Pay attention to which option button is used.

===[[Commenting]]===
*'''My gallery comment disappeared!'''
**Comments will become hidden [[Gallery_Commenting#Hidden_Comments|if they are low rated]].
**For galleries with more than 50 comments only the top 50 (depending on which viewing order is used) are displayed by default; the rest are hidden.

*'''I cannot delete my gallery comment!'''
**This is intentional.

*'''"Due to reported abuse, you have been blocked from adding more comments."'''
**Numerous comments that you have made were severely downvoted.

*'''"You can only add comments for active galleries."'''
**Deleted galleries may not have comments added to them.

*'''I cannot rate a gallery comment!'''
**You cannot rate comments if you have added a comment to the same gallery.
***Any existing comment ratings for a gallery will be removed if you add a comment to that gallery.

*'''I can upvote just fine but my comment downvotes do not have any effect!'''
**You have downvoted too many comments and the system acknowledged you as a potential mass-downvoter.

*'''"You have to wait 60 seconds between each comment."'''
**This is to prevent spam. This limitation is reduced to 10 seconds for users with at least 25 [[power]].

*'''"Your gallery comment is too short."'''
**Comments must be at least 10 characters long.

*'''"You have to type a real comment."'''

*'''"Could not vote for comment: Cannot vote when own comment exists in gallery"'''
**You are trying to vote after posting a comment. Refresh the page to display your comment (unless it is perma-hidden).

*'''"Could not get editable comment: Can only edit own comment"'''
**You are trying to edit someone else's comment. Refresh the page to display your own comment.

***'''All static ranges unable to fit within the new cache size will be lost.''' Ranges will be gradually reassigned once the cache becomes bigger again and the client is qualified to earn more ranges.

*'''HTTP 400 (Bad Request) responses show up in the client!'''
**This is normal as long as the client is within its region's average failure rate.
**If this happens a lot the client's ISP may have poor connectivity to the querying region. This can also be due to packet loss.

*'''My client has low trust!'''
**This commonly occurs after a bad shutdown since the server continues to attempt contact with your client after it went offline.
**Leave the client running, it will gradually regain trust if no other problems exist.
**If its trust is not recovering at all it may indicate a communication or file corruption issue. Check your cache.
**Low trust can also happen when your drive is full. It can happen on certain systems despite setting a free disc space in your panel. You can reduce your Maximum Disk Cache Size setting in your panel (and check "Remove static ranges if necessary") to fix that issue.

*'''My client's trust is fine but my quality drops!'''
**This is usually caused by transient routing problems in the short-term and prevents single malfunctioning clients from causing entire network issues by lowering their priority accordingly.
**Sudden and large drops are normal for newer clients; waiting for a few weeks will generally give a stable baseline.

***Note that claiming ignorance of the H@H uptime requirements or the automated warnings on your excessive cache/ranges resets is '''NOT''' considered an acceptable justification.
**This can also occur if any of your cache files were deleted and your cache database was not updated to reflect this. Do '''NOT''' manually delete files from your cache.

**To resolve this, you will need to contact [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showuser=6 Tenboro] directly.

Expunging

2023-12-21T08:16:08Z

Tenboro: /* Forbidden/Other */

Expunging allows users to remove [[galleries]] from the default listing and [[searches]]. This is typically done because of duplicate or replaced content.

==How To==
Expunging a gallery is handled via a petitioning system.
Each gallery has a "Petition to Expunge" link on the right side above the images.
Any user with [[mod power]] 5 or above may start a gallery expunge.
Otherwise, [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 this forum thread] can be used to ask for an expunge to be created on your behalf.

The "Petition to Expunge" link will replace the gallery's image section with a list of reasons a gallery can be expunged.
An explanation for the expunge '''must''' be provided in the input boxes by the user who files an expunge petition, and in most cases an URL of the valid gallery should be provided.

Once a petition is created, subsequent users with a mod power of at least 2 may vote for or against the petition.
These subsequent votes do not require a reason for voting, but one may be optionally provided.
Votes for the petition add to the petition score, votes against reduce the score.
A user's mod power will determine how much their vote will contribute (capped at 30; 40 for base bonus users).

In order for the gallery to be expunged a petition must reach a score of 100 and then remain there for 15 minutes,
once that happens the petition becomes ACTIVE and the gallery is expunged.
A petition may have a score above 100, protecting it from 'against' votes for the required period of 15 minutes.

A gallery may have multiple independent petitions active at the same time.
In the event that one petition becomes ACTIVE all other petitions on the gallery are deleted.

Petitions left incomplete for more than 7 days are automatically cleared.

===Appeal an Incorrect Expunge===
In the event an expunge was carried out incorrectly, the expunge can be appealed.
Within the first 7 days of the expunge any user with 10 or more mod power can create an appeal petition.
Only [[E-Hentai_VIP|veto holders]] may create an appeal after this time.

Similar to expunge petitions, users may vote for or against an appeal with an optional comment.
If the appeal petition surpasses a sum of votes of 100 or more for 15 minutes the expunge will be revoked and the gallery will be restored.

After a successful expunge appeal only veto holders or users with a [[mod power]] of at least 25 may start a further expunge petition on that gallery.

Users who participated in the original expunge petition may not participate in voting on an appeal petition, aside from creating them if they realize it was incorrect.

===Before Expunging===
Make sure the gallery is "Visible"; this status is indicated on the left-hand side of the gallery.

===Reverting and Splitting===
Reversion should be requested when an uploader solely removes legitimate content from a gallery. '''Please do not expunge these galleries.'''
*Reverted galleries will be locked for updating to prevent further sabotaging.

Gallery chain split should be requested when an uploader overwrites a gallery with other irrelevant content, assuming that both iterations can be considered as valid galleries on their own.
*The split gallery will not have any ratings, favorites, comments, or torrents, but will retain tags with 10 or more power from the original chain by default.
**[[Image:Point.png]] You must specify in your report if the tags from the original chain should not be copied to the split gallery.
*Both the original and split gallery will be locked for updating.

To submit a reversion/split request:
*Step 1: Visit the version of the gallery to be reverted back to (not the inferior version).
*Step 2: Press "Report Gallery" and scroll down.
*Step 3: Select the "Reversion/Split/Undisown Request" option from the drop-down menu.
*Step 4: Put in your e-mail address.
*Step 5: Type "Revert" / "Split ''*Gallery IDs*'' " and briefly state why the gallery should be reverted/split in the "Report Details" box.
*Step 6: Send the report.

While not mandatory, you are encouraged to document your reversion/split requests over [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 this thread]. Notifying the community will help to prevent redundant requests from being submitted.

==Reasons To Expunge==
===Already Uploaded===
''This gallery is a duplicate of equal or lower quality of an earlier posted gallery.''

This explanation requires a link to the superior / previously uploaded gallery.
*An exact duplicate already exists.
*A superior version already exists ([[#Superior|see below]]).
*Bad-faith [[rewrite]] or [[translated|translation]] of existing content to add extremist or politically charged content.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=announce&id=5 (Ref)]</sup>

**[[Image:Point.png]] '''This type of expungable content is never reportable.''' <span style="color:red">'''Misusing the [[report]] function may lead to a [[ban]].'''</span>
*The gallery is a reupload of a work that has previously been removed by the administration.
**Content listed on the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=19797 Do Not Post list] should be expunged as [[#Forbidden/Other|forbidden content]].

<span style="color:green">Tag: [[already uploaded]]</span>

*The gallery is a compilation of works not permitted together:
**Images from official sets (such as a [[comic]]s, [[tankoubon]]s, or CG sets) should not be substantially included in other collections of images.
**Combinations of chapters from multiple [[tankoubon]]s are not permitted, although related chapters from multiple ''[[anthologies]]'' are.
**Multiple language translations should not be combined in a single gallery.
**[[Image:Point.png]] '''The compiled content must exist in separate galleries before it can be expunged.''' If the number of galleries is too much to list out in the expunge reason, a [[comment]] linking to the existing galleries is highly recommended.

*"Degraded" includes any sort of intentional bad-faith sabotage of the core content, including but not limited to excessive downsampling, blurring, pixelation etc, as well as leaving out core content.
**Scanmarks that do not obstruct content or promotional pages added after the content pages do not qualify.
**Low-resolution scans uploaded before 2022-04-28 are exempt.
*If you are unsure whether a gallery qualifies for this expunge category or not, please make an inquiry [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=36923 here].

==Expunge Reason Priority==
If a gallery fulfills the criteria for multiple expunge categories simultaneously (e.g. a re-uploaded DNP), a single petition must be filed with the first applicable reason based on this order:
:{|class=wikitable
!Priority
!Expunge Type
|-
!1

!2
|| [[Expunging#Already_Uploaded|Already Uploaded]]
|-
!3
|| [[Expunging#Replaced|Replaced]]
|-
!4
|| [[Expunging#Defaced|Defaced]]
|}

==Superior Versions==
The most common type of superiority is the amount of content a gallery contains. There are 4 classifications of content:

{|class="wikitable"
!Class !! Includes !! Desirability
|-
!<span style="color:green">Core Content</span>

*Better Quality
**'''Images should be as released by the source.''' Conversions, retouching, leveling, splitting double-pages into singles, or removing original source watermarks are '''NOT''' permitted.
**This includes cleaner scans, no watermarks/scanmarks, increased legibility of text, no folding marks, less artifacts, more visible contrast, etc.
**Maximum DPI is 300; anything greater is considered excessive.
**Single page scans are preferred over double-page scans.
**A fully complete gallery may replace an incomplete one of superior image quality; however, if both galleries are incomplete in different ways then they both stay.<sup>([https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=28293&view=findpost&p=2427563 Ref])</sup>

==Gallery Visibility==
If a gallery is "Visible" to at least 1 user (besides Tenboro) it is counted as existing in the system and thus any re-uploads should be expunged.
*[[Private]] galleries are not to be expunged unless they contain [[#Forbidden|forbidden content]].

==Effects of Expunging==
*Expunged galleries cease earning any [[GP]]. Galleries expunged within 4 hours of their publishing receive no [[GP]] at all.
*Expunged galleries become [[Searching|unsearchable]] by default and require the advanced search option "Browse Expunged Galleries".

==[[Rewards]]==
Expunging galleries (as well as [[renaming]] them) rewards points for the [[Toplists#Cleanup_Toplists | Cleanup Toplist]]. Users receive more points for being the first to petition.

[[Image:Point.png]] Repeated poor use of expunge petitions may result in the user being [[banned]] from using them further.

==Limits==
*Expunge petition on protected galleries, such as those that have previously been de-expunged, can only be started by [[VIP|veto holders]] or users with a [[mod power]] of at least 25.

Tenboro: /* Minimum Requirements For New Clients */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

==Signing Up==

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections (capped at 500)''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*If a limit is set, '''the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.'''
**<span style="color:#ff0000">'''If set below 10000 GB/month, the client will not be assigned any [[Hentai@Home#High-Capacity_Ranges|high-capacity ranges]], and all previously assigned high-capacity ranges will be removed ''immediately''.'''</span>

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive fewer static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or at least 10000 GB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] below 10000 GB/month or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating Hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

|}

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily [[Hath]] earned per client is based on the following formula:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_served_per_minute / 420) + 0.01 * static_ranges</pre>
*Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for Hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.
*The [[Hath]] is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.
*Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate [[Hath]].
*Clients will not receive any [[Hath]] if the [[Hentai@Home#Quality|quality]] drops below 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

Tenboro: /* Data Transfer Cap */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

===Obtaining Client Keys===
Users wishing to sign up for their first client can apply from the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php Hentai@Home page] in their [[My Home]] area. Applications are typically processed in less than a day.

For any additional clients you will need to [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=6 PM Tenboro]. For users wishing to run more than 5 clients the average stable quality of their existing clients must be 7,000+ before more keys are assigned.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*If a limit is set, '''the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.'''
**<span style="color:#ff0000">'''If set below 10000 GB/month, the client will not be assigned any [[Hentai@Home#High-Capacity_Ranges|high-capacity ranges]], and all previously assigned high-capacity ranges will be removed ''immediately''.'''</span>

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive fewer static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or at least 10000 GB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] below 10000 GB/month or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

|-

|}

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_per_minute / 420) + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive fewer static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or at least 10000 GB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] below 10000 GB/month or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

|}

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_per_minute / 420) + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

Tenboro: /* High-Capacity Ranges */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*If a limit is set, '''the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.'''
**<span style="color:#ff0000">'''The client will also be disqualified from all current and future [[Hentai@Home#High-Capacity_Ranges|HC ranges]] assignments ''immediately''.'''</span> Future assignments will not occur until the limit has been removed.

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive fewer static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or at least 10 TB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

|}

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_per_minute / 420) + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

Tenboro: /* High-Capacity Ranges */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*If a limit is set, '''the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.'''
**<span style="color:#ff0000">'''The client will also be disqualified from all current and future [[Hentai@Home#High-Capacity_Ranges|HC ranges]] assignments ''immediately''.'''</span> Future assignments will not occur until the limit has been removed.

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive fewer static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

====High-Capacity Ranges====
Static ranges can also be promoted into High-Capacity (HC) ranges, in which the client will be used to serve large and original quality files of that range.

To receive any HC ranges assignment, clients must meet more stringent requirements:
*Must be located in one of the three major regions with surplus capacity. i.e., Europe, North America, or Asia (excluding China)
*Must have at least 10000 KB/s throttle and 8000 KB/s tested speed
*Must have the [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap|monthly bandwidth limit]] set to either unlimited (0) or more than 10 TB/month
*Must have at least 100 GB of disk space assigned

The maximum number of HC ranges that a client can have is limited to 1 per 1 GiB of reserved disk space. <span style="color:#ff0000">'''You will lose all of your assigned HC ranges if you set a [[Hentai@Home#Data_Transfer_Cap | data transfer cap]] or reduce the maximum upload rate below 10000 KB/s.'''</span> The traffic estimates for calculating hathrate will also be reset.

Due to their surplus cache capacity, clients with a low ratio of P1 ranges will be preferred for HC range promotions. '''Do NOT attempt to avoid P1 assignments for the sake of gaining HC ranges''', as they are still preferable over HC ranges.

Note that HC ranges are set independently of priority, meaning a static range can both have a priority of P1 and be set as an HC range.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate to the average failure rate of the region. It influences the assignment/promotion of [[static range]]s, as well as the allocation of traffic.
*If the client's average failure rate is the same as the regional average, the quality metric will be at 9000. To achieve maximum quality (i.e., 10000), the client would need to have less than half the failure rate compared to the average.
*New clients with minimal traffic may experience some fluctuations in the value, but this will stabilize over time.

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * max(hits_per_minute, KB_per_minute / 420) + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

For any additional clients you will need to [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=6 PM Tenboro]. For users wishing to run more than 5 clients the average stable quality of their existing clients must be 7,000+ before more keys are assigned.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*Note that the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.

::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive less static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate with its average hit rate. It prioritizes clients for file requests (along with raw speed and proximity factors) and determines how many [[static range]]s can be assigned every day when compared with the region's average performance.
*Quality gradually increases as long as the client is properly serving files. It fluctuates using a weighed average of low and high marks to measure a client's long-term stability. Those marks stabilize over time unless network issues exist. The low-end mark defines daily [[static range]] assignment.
*What constitutes a decent quality rating varies between geographical regions. A client's low-end mark should be at least within its regional average in order to get the most [[static range]]s.

|}

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * hitrate + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

==Revocations==
Clients that fail to adhere to the uptime requirements by a significant margin or have their cache/ranges regularly cleared will be revoked. Revoked clients can no longer be used and will be deleted after the three month grace period.

Depending on what led to the revocation, revoked clients can sometimes be reactivated. You would need a very good reason for this to happen, and this will be decided on a case by case basis. "I did not read the requirements on the signup page nor the multiple automated warnings I received" is not a good reason.

If your client is revoked, you will not be able to re-apply to H@H in the future.

Tenboro: /* Rewards */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

The client may be run freely for any duration of time but it is recommended to run it continuously for as long as possible for maximum [[#Rewards|rewards]].

*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate with its average hit rate. It prioritizes clients for file requests (along with raw speed and proximity factors) and determines how many [[static range]]s can be assigned every day when compared with the region's average performance.
*Quality gradually increases as long as the client is properly serving files. It fluctuates using a weighed average of low and high marks to measure a client's long-term stability. Those marks stabilize over time unless network issues exist. The low-end mark defines daily [[static range]] assignment.
*What constitutes a decent quality rating varies between geographical regions. A client's low-end mark should be at least within its regional average in order to get the most [[static range]]s.

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

Only [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] clients which current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' will generate Hath.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * hitrate + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

Tenboro: /* Minimum Requirements For New Clients */

Hentai@Home (H@H) is an open-source Peer-2-Peer gallery distribution system which reduces the load on the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. Current version: [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=234458 1.6.2].

[[Image:H@H Client.png|thumb|The client UI (maximized)]]
[[Image:H@H Client Screen.png|thumb|The client list UI]]

==General Information==
H@H is a project that can be compared to a cross between the [https://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ SETI@home] project and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol) BitTorrent].

All participating users run a small Java-based client that downloads files from the main E-Hentai servers to their computer and passes those files on to people who browse the [[E-Hentai Galleries]]. This allows E-Hentai to serve many more images using less server bandwidth.

The client may be run freely for any duration of time but it is recommended to run it continuously for as long as possible for maximum [[#Rewards|rewards]].

===Obtaining Client Keys===
Users signing up for their first client simply go to the [[My_Home#Hentai.40Home | Hentai@Home page]] in their [[My Home]] area. A flash interface will appear where users may fill in their qualifications. Applications typically take a few days to process.

For any additional clients please [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=6 PM Tenboro]. For users wishing to run more than 5 clients the average stable quality of their existing clients must be 7,000+ before more keys are assigned.

==Limits==
A client's maximum burst speed (in KB/s) will determine the maximum number of connections that can be had simultaneously (up to 500 at 4800 KB/s or more).

Simultaneous connections are determined by a client's hitrate and burst speed (during speed tests, the packet size is adjusted to match the client's burst speed).
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Maximum connections''' = 20 + max_burst_speed / 10000</pre>

The disk cache size (in GB) must be enough to maintain static ranges. Clients must be able to store 10 GB or 250 MB per static range at any given time, whichever is higher:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Minimum cache size''' = max(10, static_ranges * 250 / 1024)</pre>

===Speed Test===
When the H@H client starts, it contacts one of the H@H control servers which tests the connection of the client in order to check if it can upload data at the configured maximum burst speed. If it cannot, the maximum burst speed is reduced internally to the measured upload speed in order to prevent the connection from being overloaded.

==Activity==
<div id="healthy"></div>A client is considered to be "healthy" if '''all''' of the following apply:
* The client '''must be running and not suspended'''.
* The client's '''[[#Trust|trust]] value must be above 0'''.
* The client must maintain a '''[[#Quality|quality]] of more than 2000'''.
* The client's tested speed must '''exceed 400 KB/s (for Asia clients) or 800 KB/s (for non-Asia clients)'''.
Failure to reach any of these requirements will make it idle on the network and wait until the requirements are reached.

==Data Transfer Cap==
With each client, you may define a <i>Monthly Data Transfer Target</i> from the client's settings page (under the "Advanced Settings" section). This will help to prevent H@H from using more data than the monthly cap set by your ISP.
*If the system detects that you are likely to exceed this target, it will reduce the [[Hentai@Home#Priority_Ranges|priority]] of ranges on your client to reduce the load, but it is not guaranteed to stay below this value.
*The value must be at least 1000 GB if set.
*Note that the [[static range]] allocation of that client will be limited to 1 per 5 GB.

==Software==
A few command line switches may be given to the H@H application in order to change some of its behaviors:
:<tt>--disable_bwm</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the bandwidth monitor, which prevents the client from using more upload speed than the value of the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter. The H@H dispatcher will still respect the "Maximum Burst Speed" parameter so that the <u>mean</u> upload speed of the client won't exceed that value. However, the client might use as much upload speed as its connection provides in order to send files, which generally results in upload peaks.
::In some cases, the bandwidth monitor is unable to use the whole maximum upload speed that has been set, which can result in an under-utilization of the client's upload speed (and might trigger false overload notifications). In such cases, it is better to disable the bandwidth monitor in order for the client to give better performance.
:<tt>--disable_logging</tt>
::(''Can also be set from the client's settings page'')
::Disables the opening, creation, and writing to the ''log_out'' file. This will significantly reduce I/O for HDD but make network troubleshooting harder. Java errors will still be logged to ''log_err''.
:<tt>--flush-logs</tt>
::Flushes the log to disk for every written line. This will increase I/O; mostly recommended for when the log is written to a ramdisk.
:<tt>--max_connections=''conn''</tt>
::Sets the maximum number of connections the application can handle to ''conn''. The default maximum number of connections depends on the max burst speed parameter, as detailed above. In some rare circumstances the default value is too low and the maximum number of connections needs to be increased slightly in order to avoid triggering false overload notifications. Setting this value too high might have severe consequences on a client's performance and impact the whole H@H network badly. '''DO NOT CHANGE THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!'''
:<tt>--port</tt>
::Overrides the port set in the client's settings. For example, one may use this option and the following iptables rules to allow running H@H on one port officially (in the [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php settings page]) whilst binding or tunneling a completely different port. One potential use case cloud be: configure H@H in the setting to start on port <tt>443</tt> (HTTPS), then use <tt>--port=7777</tt> with the following iptables rules:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 7777</pre>
:<tt>--rescan-cache</tt>
::Checks the cache for errors.
:<tt>--silentstart</tt>
::Starts the UI in minimized mode / tray icon.
:<tt>--skip_free_space_check</tt>
::Disables the free space check so that the application won't err if the space left on the partition that contains the ''cache'' folder is less than the configured parameter (or 100MB if that parameter is set to a value less than 100MB).
:<tt>--verify_cache</tt>
::(''Can also be requested from the client's settings page'')
::Forces a check of the entire cache. This is the same as <tt>--rescan-cache</tt> with the addition that the SHA-1 hash of each file is also checked; this can take a long time.
:<tt>--Xmx''mem''m</tt>
::Limits the use of memory to ''mem'' (in MB).
:<tt>--disable-ip-origin-check</tt>
::Disables the requirement that RPC server requests come from a whitelisted IP. Using this is discouraged as it reduces security, but may allow the client to work in some common non-transparent proxy configurations.
:<tt>--disable-flood-control</tt>
::Disables the rate limit on connections per IP address. May be necessary to use with the above trigger.

===Directories===
:<tt>--cache-dir</tt>
:<tt>--data-dir</tt>
:<tt>--download-dir</tt>
:<tt>--log-dir</tt>
:<tt>--temp-dir</tt>

These arguments allow for changes to the locations of these directories. Quotes are required if there are spaces in the path. H@H will attempt to create the directory if it does not exist. Only ''log'' and ''temp'' may share a directory.

Examples:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Windows''': --download-dir="c:\some download dir with spaces\"
'''Linux''': --cache-dir=/some/cache/location --temp-dir=/dev/shm/hath --log-dir=/dev/shm/hath</pre>

==Cache==
The system fills a client's cache exclusively with [[#Static Ranges|static ranges]] of files. Users should '''not''' tamper with any of these files; this will cause major [[#Trust|trust]] and cache database issues for the client. Corrupted files will be deleted and replaced if requested.

===Static Ranges===
Static ranges each correspond to 1/65536th of the site's "active" content. The server will always assume that the client is able to serve files from that range without tracking the files individually. If a ranged file isn't currently cached the client will proxy-request it from the image servers on-demand and store it for later use.

The assignment of static ranges for a particular region is based on a scoring algorithm. It generally prioritizes new clients or clients with few ranges, assuming all other factors (e.g., tested speed) are similar across clients. If a static range has only been assigned to less than the desired number of clients or a below-average number of clients, the range in question will be assigned to an available client.

Ranges are capped based on the low-end [[#Quality|quality]] mark of the client.
A client won't be assigned any new ranges if the tested speed drops below 800kB/s.
The amount of ranges a client can have is capped at 1 per 5 KB/s of effective speed (the lesser of throttle and quota per hour) and one per 250MiB of allocated size.
Each client can only have 6000 ranges assigned at max.

Clients experiencing connectivity issues during peak hours will receive less static ranges to avoid increases in hitrate and workload they would otherwise not properly manage.

====Priority Ranges====
Static ranges are further divided into five priority levels (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5). The network will first attempt to request a file from a P1 client, and then fall back to clients with a lower priority (P2 > P3 > P4 > P5) should the initial client(s) fail to serve the file.

To receive the most P1 ranges, the client must maintain a high tested speed, [[quality]] value, and total static range count. Clients that experienced recent overloads will be less likely to be assigned with P1 ranges.

Furthermore, a client will be disqualified for any P1 range assignment should they fail the minimum [[Hentai@Home#Trust|trust]], [[quality]], current/previous session runtime, or tested speed requirements.

==Trust==
Trust indicates how well the client is performing according to other clients.
*Trust caps at +1000 and gradually rises by 1-4 per minute if the client is behaving normally, even if it is not serving files.
*Negative trust often occurs from improper shutdowns, bad connections, or having a higher than expected number of cache misses.

==Quality==
Quality measures the long-term overall stability and reliability of a client, calculated by comparing the client's average failure rate with its average hit rate. It prioritizes clients for file requests (along with raw speed and proximity factors) and determines how many [[static range]]s can be assigned every day when compared with the region's average performance.
*Quality gradually increases as long as the client is properly serving files. It fluctuates using a weighed average of low and high marks to measure a client's long-term stability. Those marks stabilize over time unless network issues exist. The low-end mark defines daily [[static range]] assignment.
*What constitutes a decent quality rating varies between geographical regions. A client's low-end mark should be at least within its regional average in order to get the most [[static range]]s.

==[[Rewards]]==
Users receive 1 [[GP]] for each hit on their client and may compete for a position on the [[Toplists#Hentai.40Home_Toplists|H@H toplist]]. While running [[Hentai@Home#healthy|healthy]] H@H clients, users receive [[Hath]] which can be used to purchase [[Hath Perks]].

The daily amount earned per client is based on average hit/minute (calculated over a week) and [[static range]]s. The hath is made available roughly every 4 hours the client has been running.

A quality rating below 5000 reduces the static range gain by a linear factor:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">'''Hathrate/day''' = 1 + 0.15 * hitrate + 0.01 * static_ranges * min(1, low_quality_factor)</pre>

Note that <tt>static_range</tt> is capped by the client's tested speed. The cap is set at <tt>tested_speed/5 (in KB/s)</tt>. Example: For a client with 6000 static ranges assigned, but only 10000 KB/s tested speed, its <tt>static_range</tt> for hathrate purposes will only be at 2000.

===H@H Downloader===
''For more information, please check [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=196195 this thread].''

An H@H client can be used to download [[archive]]s (instead of via HTTPS).
* Resolution options include 780x, 980x, 1280x, 1600x, 2400x, or original (availability may differ).
* Once queued there is no way to prevent the client from downloading the gallery.
* A ''galleryinfo.txt'' file is generated upon completed unlike [[archive]] downloading.
* [[Archives#Filenames|Filename changes]] still occur.
* These downloads still cost [[GP]]/[[credits]] ([[#Free_Archives|see below for exceptions]]).
* The download queue is server-side and as such is not affected by client-side interruptions. It will resume if the client is restarted. Queued downloads aren't pruned unless the client fails to download them for a full week. The client will verify that the downloaded file has the expected hash at completion.

====Free [[Archives]]====
[[Hentai@Home#healthy|Healthy]] clients with its current or previous session '''lasted for at least 24 hours straight''' earn a quota of 1,000 MB/day in free [[archive]] downloads. An additional 10 MB/day is earned per adjusted average hit.
* This quota is measured over a 7-day sliding window.
* [[Archives#Costs|Recreated archives]] do NOT qualify.
* Extra clients do NOT earn another 1,000 MB.
* The amount a user has earned can be found on their H@H client list page at the bottom of the "Your Active Clients" section.

**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. If so, the reason it is not visible will be indicated there.
**Attempt to visit a direct link to your gallery.

<div id="expunged"><div id="Expunged"><div id="expunge"><div id="Expunge">
*'''My gallery was [[expunged]] unfairly!'''
**Check the gallery's expunge log for the reason(s).
**Make sure it was [[expunged]] and not removed or deleted. Each of these happen for very different reasons.
**Post the gallery's URL [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 here] to inquire about it.

*'''<span id="delete gallery">I cannot delete my gallery!'''
**This is intentional. [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Once a gallery has been published, it belongs to the community].
**A gallery may instead be [[My Galleries#Available Actions|disowned]] if the uploader wishes to remove association.
**<span style="color:red">'''False expunges will lead to a ban and the gallery reverted to its previous state.'''</span>

*'''<span id="cant upload">I cannot publish my gallery.'''
**Before publishing a gallery or a gallery update you must first read the [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Terms of Service] and check the corresponding box, then choose a sorting order. If you do not wish to re-order, click "Apply with Current Ordering".

*'''My gallery has an incorrect name or [[category]]!'''
**Check if it is still listed in your [[Gallery Manager]]. The default category is [[Doujinshi]].
***If so, you may rename or re-categorize it from there.
***If a [[Renaming|rename petition]] was successful on your gallery but the name is still unsatisfactory, you may insert another petition option. Should this new option reach higher [[power]], the name will change over.

*'''I cannot [[rename]] my gallery from the [[Gallery Manager]]!'''
**This action is only permitted from the manager for 24 hours after publishing.
**A successful [[Renaming|rename petition]] was done on your gallery. See the above issue.
**[[Expunged]] galleries cannot be renamed in this manner.

*'''"You can no longer change the [[category]] of this gallery."'''
**The gallery has had its [[category]] changed via [[tagging]]. If the [[category]] is still unsatisfactory report it as a [[#Gallery Tagging|mistag]].

*'''I'm afraid I can't let you do that.'''
*'''That gallery has been marked as deleted, and can no longer be modified.'''
**You are attempting to modify or delete a gallery that cannot or can no longer be deleted.
***This also applies to properly replaced galleries and is working as intended.

*'''"Could not rate gallery. Reason: You cannot rate your own gallery."'''
**Self-explanatory.

*'''"Could not obtain lock on gallery - if you are not running any active operations on this gallery, please wait about 15 minutes for the lock to expire."'''
**Occurs when a gallery being uploaded / managed is in the middle of being processed by the server. Please wait and try again later.
**Also occurs to galleries that were reverted to a previous state, thus the URL entered is no longer valid.

*'''My gallery has missing, unwanted, or wrongly ordered images!'''
**You can add, remove, and modify the order of all your gallery's images via the [[Gallery Manager]].
***Note that you may only update a gallery twice per every 30 days (some exceptions apply).
****This limit does not apply to unpublished / [[private]] galleries.
<div id="order"></div><div id="Order"></div><div id="out of order"></div>
*'''When people download my gallery the files are in the wrong order!'''
**Downloaded galleries use the filenames of the files ''when they were uploaded'', so they may be out of order even if you corrected the order manually via the gallery maintenance UI.
**Rename your files to the correct order '''''before''''' uploading them (''e.g. 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc.'') to avoid this problem.
***This is further recommended since different OSes [https://support.microsoft.com/kb/319827 sort files differently].
<div id="rating"></div><div id="Rating"></div>

*'''<span id="bad ratings">People are giving my galleries low [[ratings]]!'''
**They are entitled to their opinions. Furthermore, ratings do not affect how well a gallery fares.
**Votes that deviate too much from the average rating are automatically discarded. This process is retroactive. Ratings, [[tags]] and [[favorites]] also carry over across all non-aged gallery updates.

*'''My gallery files are being resampled and converted to JPG!'''
**This is intended for [[Making_Galleries#Limits|files over 10MB in size]]. A link still allows you to download the original source at a cost of 5 image hits per MB.

*'''My gallery's stats show low/no hits!'''
**Gallery stats are updated every ~4 hours. Please wait and check again later.

====[[Uploading]]====
*'''My uploads seem unusually slow.'''
*'''I am stuck on "Processing..."'''
**Try to upload your images in ZIP or RAR archives. Uploading a small amount of larger files is faster than many smaller files. Break your upload into smaller portions.
***To prevent [[out of order]] situations either prefix filenames (the same way the [[Archiver]] would) or upload archives sequentially.
**Disable any software that uses upload bandwidth while you are uploading to the site.

*'''Images appear outside of the scope / keep reappearing and I can't save changes!'''
*'''I've uploaded files but the gallery is empty!'''
*'''"The gallery is busy processing another task. Please wait until it is done before uploading more files."'''
**The recommended maximum data you should upload in a single instance is 500 MB. Do not upload more than <span title="1,258,291,200 bytes" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">1,200 MB</span> in a single instance.
**Do not upload in multiple tabs/windows at the same time; the files are liable to be discarded.
***Uploading files to different galleries simultaneously is also not recommended.

*'''My files take a lot of time to be processed.'''
**All files require indexing and thumbnail generation. PNG files additionally require decompression. Please be patient.
**It is recommended to use zero-compression (Store) ZIP/RAR archives; the filesize difference is negligible whilst processing will be much faster.

*'''"Could not retrieve lock for gallery"'''
*'''"The gallery has been deleted"'''
**You are trying to upload files to the wrong gallery chain (replaced chain) or a deleted gallery.

*'''"Upload is temporarily unavailable."'''
**The upload server is under maintenance. Please wait and try again later.

*'''"The file {filename} is corrupt, incomplete, too large, or not an accepted image file."'''
**Make sure the file is of an [[Making_Galleries#Limits|accepted format and is not over the size limit]], is not corrupt, and is not named with [[Making_Galleries#Checking|unacceptable characters]].

*'''"{Filename} has been blacklisted on this system"'''
**Any file that causes this message should '''NOT''' be uploaded as it is [[DNP]].

*'''"You have been temporarily barred from [[Making Galleries|uploading]] and managing galleries. The bar expires in ''x'' hours."'''
**Too many of your galleries were [[expunged]], removed, or deleted.
**Wait for the ban to expire and do not create any more unacceptable uploads.

*'''"You have been [[banned]] from [[Making Galleries|submitting galleries]] to this system."'''
**Same as above, except permanent.

*'''"Rate limitation for new posters in effect. You have to wait a few hours before you can post more [[Making Galleries|galleries]]."'''
**There is a rate limit that compares your recent upload volume to your post history of good galleries, the calculation determines how many galleries you can publish in succession. Wait for the limit to expire.
***Private / Unlisted galleries do not count as "good". <sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=252404&view=findpost&p=6011165 (Ref)]</sup>

*'''"You have earlier uploaded and published a gallery identical to the one you are now trying to publish. This gallery has been removed, and you will now be redirected to the old, identical gallery. If that gallery had previous been marked as deleted, it is now available again. You will be returned to the Management Interface momentarily."'''
**You uploaded an exact copy of a gallery you have already uploaded and published.
**This will undelete a gallery if it was deleted by its owner.

*'''"You cannot add files to galleries that are older than twelve months. Please make a new one, then request to have this one expunged. You will be returned to the Management Interface momentarily."'''
**This is what is known as an [[aged]] gallery.
**[[Expunging#Replaced|Replace]] your gallery if it is truly necessary to make changes to it.

*'''"{Filename} was generated by this system and has been replaced with the original copy."'''
**The image uploaded is a thumbnail that was already generated by the system and thus was replaced by its original version.

*'''I cannot select 'Save Changes', 'Start Upload', or 'Publish Gallery' after deleting an image!'''
**Use one of the sorting buttons after making such changes to confirm them.

===[[Gallery Tagging]]===
*'''Some tag searches include additional results.'''
**Try using [[Gallery_Tagging#Exact_Tag_Searching|exact tag searching]].

*'''I cannot tag a gallery!'''
**The tag you are attempting to use may not be acceptable (e.g. too short or blacklisted).
**You may be banned from tagging galleries. You will receive a pop-up notification if this is the case.
**You may be attempting to upvote a downvoted tag (which may not give an error message). Be sure to read the tag's definition, [[Gallery Tagging|tagging guidelines]], or ask [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=184081 here] for upvotes.

*'''I tried to tag something and it turned into a different tag!'''
**Your tag included non-alphanumeric characters which are not permitted. Only hyphens, periods, and spaces are allowed in tags.
**Due to the grouping system for tags any [[slave tag]] will become its respective master tag. If you are not satisfied with the grouping you may post [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 here] to discuss it.

*'''I cannot select a [[namespace]] for my tag!'''
**If you are certain it should be assigned a namespace please contact a [[E-Hentai VIP|tag moderator]] or post [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 here].
***At least one instance of the temp tag must exist for it to be namespaced. If you cannot add the tag due to lack of [[power]] or if the tag already exists within another namespace please also link to a gallery where the tag would be a valid addition. If the tag does not pass [[presence]] for a gallery but will likely be used in the future (e.g. a [[character]] tag) please specify this in your post.
****If you forgot where you made the tag moderators have a listing for new tags created within the last 7 days along with the names of users who voted on them.

*'''I accidentally created a wrong tag!'''
**Simply withdraw your tag before someone else upvotes it. If it's too late and you cannot downvote the tag completely by yourself ask for assistance in [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=184081 this thread].

**Vote the tags up/down only if you are absolutely certain.
**Post the gallery's URL [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=184081 here]. Please do not accuse any users of mistagging or request any [[bans]].

====Could Not Vote For Tag====
*'''"Could not vote for tag: Cannot vote for tag."'''

**You are attempting to add/upvote a tag that is blocked or blacklisted.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag "{tagname}" is not allowed. Use {namespace}:{tagname} or {namespace}:{tagname}"'''
**The tag you are attempting to enter requires an accompanying [[namespace]]. The namespace must be one of the approved pairings for that particular tag.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: The tag "{tagname}" is scheduled for an automated action and cannot currently be voted on."'''
**You are downvoting a tag that has been slaved or blacklisted by a [[VIP|moderator]]. This is not a required action as the autotagger will remove or replace these tags eventually.
**User may still withdraw their upvotes on a slaved/blocked tag should they have upvoted it before.

*'''"Could not vote for tag: Tags should be added on the most recent gallery in this chain."'''

==[[H@H]]==
;Always make sure you have the latest stable version of [https://www.java.com/en/download/ Java Runtime Environment] and that your internet speed is sufficient when running the client.

*'''Does H@H have any dependencies?
**H@H has zero dependencies other than Java itself.

*'''Does H@H include Log4j?'''
**No. H@H has zero dependencies other than Java itself.

*'''What's my Client ID?'''
**You will not have one if you did not sign up for H@H.
**Check [https://e-hentai.org/hentaiathome.php here] for it.
**Client IDs that have been inactive for more than 6 months (~180 days) are revoked. Re-applying is permitted.

*'''My client's status is fine but I don't earn any [[Hath]] from it!'''
**Hath will not be granted if a client's speed is below the minimum requirements<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=215951&view=findpost&p=5139875]</sup>.
***Make sure the client can constantly sustain at least 200KB/s of burst speed.

*'''My client isn't doing anything!'''
**Make sure the client is [[H@H#Activity|active enough]].
**If you are running a brand new client wait for your cache to fill (and subsequently [[static range]]s). Caches generally only fill for clients that have been running for at least 24 hours.
**Cached content itself will not affect hitrate; the only factors involved are burst speed, client quality, client region, and assigned [[static range]]s.

*'''I am not being assigned static ranges!'''
**Ensure your client is stable and active with sufficient dedicated disk space. Keep it running for as long as possible.
**Clients will only get up to 48 static ranges assigned every day at peak performance (requires up to 8,400 MB of additional cache).
**There is a limit on how many times a range can be assigned to live clients in a region. If that limit is reached for all ranges, it won't assign any more until some clients go away.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=234458&view=findpost&p=5758006]</sup>

*'''Disk usage is too high! Is there a way to limit this?'''
**To reduce disk seeks lower the cache size, a higher percentage of file accesses will be cached in RAM.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=215709&view=findpost&p=5138580]</sup>
***'''All static ranges unable to fit within the new cache size will be lost.''' Ranges will be gradually reassigned once the cache becomes bigger again and the client is qualified to earn more ranges.

*'''HTTP 400 (Bad Request) responses show up in the client!'''
**This is normal as long as the client is within its region's average failure rate.
**If this happens a lot the client's ISP may have poor connectivity to the querying region. This can also be due to packet loss.

*'''My client has low trust!'''
**This commonly occurs after a bad shutdown since the server continues to attempt contact with your client after it went offline.
**Leave the client running, it will gradually regain trust if no other problems exist.
**If its trust is not recovering at all it may indicate a communication or file corruption issue. Check your cache.
**Low trust can also happen when your drive is full. It can happen on certain systems despite setting a free disc space in your panel. You can reduce your Maximum Disk Cache Size setting in your panel (and check "Remove static ranges if necessary") to fix that issue.

*'''My client's trust is fine but my quality drops!'''
**This is usually caused by transient routing problems in the short-term and prevents single malfunctioning clients from causing entire network issues by lowering their priority accordingly.
**Sudden and large drops are normal for newer clients; waiting for a few weeks will generally give a stable baseline.

*'''"Request host did not send Content-Length, aborting transfer."'''
**Something is blocking your requests; disable any [[#Common Problematic Software|problematic software]] that may be doing this.
**Disable [https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/using-xfinity-xfi-advanced-security Xfinity's xFi Advanced Security].

*'''"We appear to have reached the image limit. Attempting to contact the server to ask for a limit increase..."'''
**You have downloaded up to your daily limit via H@H downloader; you must wait 24 hours.
**This limit can be reset at your [[My Home]] area or increased by purchasing the "More Pages" [[Hath Perks]].

*'''"Server reported expired key; attempting to refresh time from server and retrying."'''
**Ignore this unless it persists.

*'''"Your client has been suspended for having an unreasonably high cache reset count."'''
**Your client has been banned. You may send an unblock request to [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showuser=6 Tenboro].
**This can occur if any of your cache files were deleted and your cache database was not updated to reflect this. Do '''NOT''' manually delete files from your cache.
***If you need to reduce your cache size simply reduce your max speed setting. The client will automatically remove excess cache files.

*'''"Critical Error: java.sql.SQLException: disk I/O error"'''
*'''"java.lang.NullPointerException - [ERR] at org.hath.base.CacheHandler.initializeCacheHandler(CacheHandler.java:214)"'''
*'''"[ERR] {java.lang.Throwable$WrappedPrintStream.println(Unknown Source)} at org.sqlite.Conn.setAutoCommit(Conn.java:336)"'''
*'''"[ERR] java.sql.SQLException: [SQLITE_CORRUPT] The database disk image is malformed (database disk image is malformed)"'''
**Delete hath.db and rename hath.db.bak to hath.db, then restart the client.
***If this fails delete both files and restart the client.
**Make sure that the user you're running H@H as has write access to the directory from which you run it.
**If all else fails run [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHKDSK chkdsk] on the drive that stores H@H.

*'''"[ERR] {java.lang.Throwable$WrappedPrintStream.println(Unknown Source)} java.lang.InternalError: HTHEME is null"'''
**This is an aesthetic issue. [[Image:WindowsOS.png]] If the Themes service is disabled on a Windows OS and a client is running in the H@H GUI this error will happen whenever it is given focus as it fails to parse themes.
**Use the command-line client or enable the Themes service.

*'''"Cache Handler: cannot meet space constraints: Disk free space limit reached."'''
**Your free disk space was detected as too low. The client will stop getting new files until this is remedied.
**Change your disk space setting ("Minimum space to leave on disk") (minimum 100 MB even if not set) or remove non-H@H files from the drive that H@H uses.

*'''I'm having high memory usage running H@H under OpenVZ!'''
**Because of how OpenVZ calculates resident memory size H@H can appear to use as much as 1 GB of RAM even though its actual resident memory size is usually 50-100 MB.
**There is no known workaround at this time.

*'''My country is incorrect on my H@H page!'''
**This does not matter for clients in Canada/United States.
**If the indicated country is geographically very far away from what it should be an override for the client ID may be necessary.

*'''My client key is "Not Set"!'''
**You must enter all the configuration details (speed, disk size, etc.) before the key is given.

*'''The SSL handshake times out!'''
**This happens on some routers where the WAN is through PPPoE, although rare.
**If you have access to your router configuration you can change this with iptables:
<pre<includeonly></includeonly> style="overflow: auto;{{{style|}}}">iptables -t mangle -A FORWARD -p tcp -i pppoe-wan -m tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu</pre>
For an ISP provided router you may need to switch the router into modem mode and append second router in front of it.

===Startup Errors===
*'''"Startup notification failed."'''
**(This is a generic message, but if no other message accompanies it then this section may apply).
**Your speed was measured as too low. Turn off any bandwidth-consuming applications and try again.
**Java may be binding an IPv6 port. Try launching H@H with <tt>java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -jar HentaiAtHome.jar</tt>.
**You failed to contact the main server. Try again later.
**Turn off any anti-DDoS settings on your router which prevent multiple connections from occurring simultaneously.

*'''"The client has failed the external connection test."'''
**Your port for H@H was not detected as open. You may test it [https://canyouseeme.org/ here].
**Make sure that the port you are opening matches the one set in your H@H settings.
**Read a [https://portforward.com/ guide] to help with the opening of ports.
**Make sure you have a public IP address. ISPs may use [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT CG-NAT], preventing others on the internet from seeing your computer.
**Check the IP of your router/modem. If it is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network#Private_IPv4_address_spaces within a private range], you may have to ask your ISP to grant you a public address.

*'''My entire cache is being verified when I start the client!'''
**This happens whenever there was a bad shutdown. This is to ensure the integrity of your cache is still in good standing.
**The client should run normally after the checking is complete. Please be patient.

*'''"The database could not be loaded."'''
*'''"Critical Error: Failed to buffer requested data for cache list write."'''
**Delete hath.db, rename hath.db.bak to hath.db, then re-launch the client.
***If this fails, delete both files and re-launch the client.
**Make sure you have ownership of the files and folders that H@H uses.

*'''"Rejecting connection request during startup."'''
**If this doesn't happen very often just ignore it. Other users are simply contacting your client too soon.
**Check if your firewall or other software is blocking Java connections.

*'''"Required library file sqlitejdbc-v056.jar could not be found."'''
**The file is missing, re-download H@H.
**It you run H@H through a command line, make sure to <tt>cd</tt> to the same directory as the HentaiAtHome.jar file before running. You may also add that <tt>cd</tt> command to the batch file.

|subtype1=Infidelity
|description=There is a friendly/familiar or reciprocal relationship between A and B, and B has sex with a third party C. A does not consent to it or is unaware of the activity.
|note=A reciprocal relationship does not require reciprocal romance. Examples are childhood friends, personal friends, classmates, or work colleagues.
:::Requires story elements showing the relationship between A and B, where they either are in a romantic partnership, or A has a romantic interest for B. B being taken away from A must be a notable part of the story.
:::If the relationship between A and B is established in canon rather than as part of the story, then A must appear or be (directly or indirectly) referenced in the work in a relevant way for the tag to be applicable.
:::Does not apply if all parties (A, B and C) are shown to be happy and satisfied with the resulting polyamorous relationships, except if the focus for the majority of the work is on A having B taken from them.
:::If A and B are in a romantic partnership, and B is not coerced or raped, then [[cheating]] also qualifies.

Tag Creation

Tenboro: Created page with "The tag creation UI __TOC__ Users with a minimum of 25 Mod Power are allowed to create tags that have never been created before (under..."

[[Image:Tag Creation UI.png|thumb|The tag creation UI]]

__TOC__
Users with a minimum of 25 [[Mod Power]] are allowed to create tags that have never been created before (under the ''temp'' [[namespace]]), assuming that sufficient justification has been provided.
*Only artist, group, cosplayer, parody, or character tags can be created in this manner.
*[[Image:Point.png]] <span style="color:#ff0000">'''The creation of [[Fetish_Listing|fetish/content tags]] CANNOT be handled through this system.'''</span> See [[Gallery_Tagging#Contextual|here]] for the proper procedures on proposing these tags.

==How To==

'''Step 1:''' Visit the gallery where the new tag would be applicable.

'''Step 2:''' Type in the proposed tag name with the ''temp:'' prefix (e.g., temp:kaguya shinomiya). Submitting the entry will open up the '''New Tag Justification''' window.
*<u>Note</u>: The system will only recognize characters a-z, 1-0, hyphens "-", periods ".", and spaces between characters " ". Everything else will be discarded automatically.

'''Step 3:''' Select the correct [[namespace]] for the newly created tag, together with necessary notes and references, and anything else that is helpful for the validation process.
*You must first describe the nature of the temp tag. External sources to support the proposed tag must also be provided.
**[[Image:Point.png]] '''Sufficient justification must be provided, or else the temp tag will be rejected by a moderator.'''
**For what can be considered a reliable and valid third-party source for the temp tag, please read the [[Tag_Creation#Guidelines_for_Submission|Guidelines for Submission]] section.
*Suggested Formats:
<pre>This tag is for a parody character named "Kaguya Shinomiya", who appeared on pages 2-12, 15-18, and 20.

'''Step 4:''' Hit "Save Changes" after submitting all the relevant materials. This will notify a [[VIP|moderator]] to process your request(s), please be patient for a response.
*A list of your pending temp tag requests can be accessed via [https://e-hentai.org/tagjustification.php this link]. You may also edit the sources provided as needed.

'''Step 5:''' A [[VIP|tag grouper]] will either approve or reject the temp tag. The requester will receive a final [[forum]] PM with the result.
*'''In the event that your new tag is rejected, it will be deleted from the database and will no longer be usable.'''
**You may submit an inquiry on the rejection(s) by posting in the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 Tag grouping and namespacing] thread.
*Aside from approval or rejection, a [[VIP|tag grouper]] may instead request for a revision on the provided sources. This will usually be because of bad formatting, lacking supporting materials, or requesting clarification.
**The requester will be sent a [[forum]] PM to notify them. To revise, simply open [https://e-hentai.org/tagjustification.php this page] and click on the tag name marked with <span style="color:red">'''REVISE'''</span>.
**Specific instruction on the source revision can also be found in comments with the ''(flagged for revision)'' flag.

==Temp Tags Tracker==
*A list of active temp tag requests can be found at https://repo.e-hentai.org/tools.php?act=temptags. The page is split into the following categories:
**<u>Pending Tags</u>: Lists any tags that still require a [[VIP|tag grouper]] or the tag requester attention.
***Tags that are in black have yet to be processed, tags in red require further information or clarification from the requester.
***The tag sources for pending tags may be modified at any time by the initial tag requester.
**<u>Approved Tags</u>: Lists processed tags that have been given a namespace or slaved.
**<u>Rejected Tags</u>: Lists processed tags that have been rejected, if you are sure your tag was rejected wrongly, you may make a post in the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 Tag grouping and namespacing] thread.
*Users may leave comments on a pending request. Please note that '''the comments should be providing additional information or clarification only'''. Tags created through this tool do not require additional support, so comments only in support should not be made.

==Guidelines for Submission==
;Supporting Materials
:Sources are preferred to be official where possible. These may include the artist's own website or social media, signatures within the work, colophon, etc.
:*Official sources are required for any [[Tag_Creation#Romanization|romanization]] that is not revised Wapuro Hepburn.
:Unofficial sources are accepted when official ones are unavailable. These may be fan sites, Wikipedia, distribution sites, etc.
:*Such sources should generally have at a bare minimum the original kanji or kana.
:*Some unofficial sources may not have enough trust, so it is advisable to provide as many supporting materials as possible.
:Some sources are considered not trustworthy at all, and will not be relied on without additional supporting materials, these include:
:*Google Translate, or any automated translation software
:*English DLsite
:*DMM
:*Anthologies table of contents pages
:*Booru sites (e.g., Danbooru)
:**Exceptions may be granted for artists that have an account with one of the booru sites and only uploads to it.
;Name Order
:For ''artist'' and ''cosplayer'' tags, the name order defaults to the order of the originating country. For example, a tag for a Japanese artist should be submitted as ''surname'' then ''given name''.
:*Exceptions could be granted for cases where the content creator consistently uses a different name order.
:For ''character'' tags, the name order is standardized in the Western order (i.e., ''given name'' then ''surname''). Rare exceptions exist but they are not granted usually.
:*<u>Standardized Exceptions</u>: [[touken ranbu]] characters that are named after swords, as well as [[vtuber|vtubers]] are created in the original written order (e.g., ''赤井はあと'' --> ''akai haato'').
:*Additional rulings on character tags can be found [[Gallery_Tagging#Good_Tags|here]] under the "Participants" subsection.
;<div id="Romanization"></div>Romanization
:Romanization for new tags should be in revised Wapuro Hepburn. For example, さいとう would be "Saito<span style="color:red">u</span>" instead of "Saito". Exceptions for commonplace names may exist (e.g., Tokyo).
:*If the tag is requested in a different romanization method, an official source must be supplied in the justification.
:*If all other already namespaced tags in the series are not in revised Wapuro Hepburn, this may be used as justification instead of an official source, but example tags must be provided.
:Western localized names are only suitable as aliases and should not be created.
:*If other already namespaced tags in the series already use the localized name, it is acceptable to create the localized version.
;[[Presence]]
:Tags require sufficient [[presence]] to be namespaced. When requesting, please provide enough page numbers to indicate presence.
:*This is especially important for long galleries, or galleries where it is not immediately obvious which pages count.
;Content Relevancy
:Some works always count as 0 presence for namespacing purposes only. These include, but are not limited to:
:*[[screenshots|Screenshots]]
:*Non-parody works (e.g., first party [[artbook]] of a series)
:*[[game manual|Game manuals]]
:*Anything that [[Expunging#Forbidden.2FOther|does not fit the theme of the site]]
:*[[Asian Porn]]
:**This extends to models in the [[cosplay]] category that are not cosplaying
:*Galleries that were [[expunged]] correctly
;Series Segregation
:Certain parodies will be slaved under a generic series tag depending on various factors. For instance, "diablo 2" and "diablo 3" are slaved under "parody:diablo" due to high connectivity.
:*Judgment criteria and existing rulings can be found on the [[Series Segregation]] page.
;Tag Renaming/Slaving Request
:Do '''NOT''' create any temp tag for the purpose of tag renaming/slaving. Doing so might put your tagging accuracy at risk. Instead, make a request post in the corresponding thread:
:*<u>Tag Renaming</u>: https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=208344
:*<u>Tag Slaving</u>: https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656
;Unacceptable Tags
:Certain tags will be rejected outright (e.g., writers, software). Please see [[Gallery_Tagging#Bad_Tags|here]] for more examples.
:*If you spot a dated temp tag that should be blocked (e.g., typo, fetish tag without approval), please submit a blocking request in the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=246656 Tag grouping and namespacing] thread.

Making Galleries

2022-03-22T10:35:46Z

Tenboro: /* Updating */

A guide to uploading [[galleries]].

==Checking==
Before uploading:
*Ensure that none of the content is [[forbidden]]; this is primarily based on the content's publisher.
*Check that the content is not already uploaded. Any gallery that it is marked as "Visible" counts as existing in the system. This step generally isn't necessary for [[Gallery_Categories#Image_Set|imageset]]-type galleries.
**Ways to check include:
***[[Searching]] for the title, artist, or applicable [[tags]].
***Performing a [[Searching#File_Search|file search]] on at least one of the images.
***Using external image search methods, such as those listed in the [[Search Guide]]
**If replacing an existing gallery ensure that the content is genuinely [[Expunging#What_Constitutes_A_.22Superior.22_Version|superior]]. Be wary of posting an upscale.
*Remove any blank images before uploading.
*There is a risk the gallery will be [[expunged]] as a [[compilation]] if it includes portions of complete works. An [[Image Set]] dedicated to an artist should only contain "loose" images not included in their published works.
*Sort and remove any mixed content ([[Gallery Categories#Cosplay|Cosplay]], [[Gallery Categories#Miscellaneous|3D]], and 2D content should not be in the same gallery; likewise with Asian and [[Gallery Categories#Western|Western]] content). There are separate [[categories]] for a reason.

===Filenames===
*Where applicable, double-check that the order of the images is correct.
**It is best to rename files for consistency and ease of sorting; 3-digit padding is recommended (e.g. 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc.) To rename many files use software such as [http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/Download.php Bulk Rename Utility] or [https://www.advancedrenamer.com/ Advanced Renamer].
*Filenames can only contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores. Any non-[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII ASCII] characters will be discarded.
**The system may or may not accept such files without any error messages. Check the outcome in the pre-publish screen after adding the files. Non-ASCII filenames inside of uploaded archives will result in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojibake mojibake] and may lead to missing files without any error.
**Keep folder names if they contain useful meta information, and split with underscores or hyphens.

==Uploading==
#Go to [[My Galleries|My Uploads]].
#Click the "[https://upld.e-hentai.org/managegallery?act=new Create New Gallery]" link.
#Fill in as much information as possible ([[Renaming|name]] and [[description]]). Galleries require a Romanized/Main title. The Japanese title field is '''not''' needed for non-Asian works; leave blank if uncertain.
#Select which [[category]] the gallery falls under.
#*This defaults to [[Gallery Categories#Doujinshi|Doujinshi]], and should be changed if appropriate.
#*The [[Private|Private / Unlisted]] option is available to [[donators]] with a minimum of a bronze star.
#Select [[Languages|Language]] options.
#*The default is Japanese / Other, and should be changed if appropriate.
#*After publishing, the language option becomes unavailable, and may only be changed via [[tagging]].
#**If the wrong language was mistakenly chosen, downvotes to remove the wrong language tag can be requested [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=184081 here].
#*[[speechless|Speechless]] does '''not''' apply to [[imageset]], [[gamecg]], or works that do not depict clear series of events (i.e. no visual narrative).
#*[[translated|Translated]] does '''not''' apply to first-party translations.
#Choose a folder for the gallery's placement (this only affects where it is found in the [[My Galleries]] screen). The default is "Unsorted".
#*Number of user-created folders is limited to 250.
#Read the [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php Terms of Service], then check the box indicating that the terms have been read and agreed upon.
#Add archives or images that make up the gallery's content. Up to 2,000 files can be selected. Click the "Start Upload" button.
#Wait for the upload to complete, the page will forward automatically. Users with lower speeds should split their upload into smaller batches.
#*Duplicate images with the same filename will be automatically removed at this stage.
#Choose a sorting method at the bottom of the page: "Natural Sort" or "Lexical Sort". Click Perform Auto-Sort to apply the selected sorting.
#*Duplicates with different filenames may be removed through the "Remove Exact Duplicates" sorting option.
#*Updated galleries have additional sorting options, based on the time the files were added. These order based on the published date of the gallery chain the images are contained in, further sorted by natural or lexical, or keeping the current order.
#*Check over the content. Add, remove, or re-order any images as desired. Click Apply Changes to lock in the ordering.
#Once satisfied with the content and sorting click "Publish Gallery" to make the gallery public. '''By doing so the user acknowledges that the gallery henceforth belongs to the community.'''
#* If an uploader wishes to remove their name from a gallery, they may disown it by accessing the [https://upld.e-hentai.org/manage Gallery Manager]. A disowned gallery will only have the uploader's name removed after 1 week from publish date, but may be initiated at any time. Galleries published for more than 1 week will have the uploader's name removed immediately.
#**[[Image:Point.png]] A disowned gallery is removed from the upload manager and many no longer be edited. This happens immediately, regardless of publish time.
At any time before publishing any changes made can be saved by clicking "Save Changes" (aside from file uploads which automatically save). Once a gallery is published it has a processing time before the gallery appears on the gallery list, however the gallery may be accessed immediately via a direct link. Smaller-sized thumbnails will automatically be generated for new or updated galleries after the larger thumbnails are made.
<br>''Note: Unpublished galleries remain available for 365 days before being removed from the gallery manager. Updating in the gallery in any way resets the timer back to 365 days. Effectively, this only requires clicking the "Save Changes" button, no actual changes are required.''
===Limits===
*Accepted formats and maximum filesizes for each individual image:
{|class="wikitable"
!Format
!Size
|-
|GIF || 10MB
|-
|<span title="JPEG will be automatically renamed to JPG" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">JPG</span> || 20MB
|-
|<span title="PNG files are resampled to JPG, see below" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">PNG</span> || 50MB
|}
*Image resolution must be a minimum of 100 x 100 (and a total of at least 251); maximum 20,000 x 20,000. Large thumbnails will be processed in JPEG format using a 200 x 300 best fit (250 x 375 for the cover).
**Images above 2,400px width or over 10MB will be downscaled, resampled and, if applicable, converted to JPG for default viewing.
**Images that exceed the filesize cap may be converted in order to shrink their filesize (with as little quality loss as possible). The gallery's [[description]] must state this and the original files should be included in the gallery's [[torrent]].
*Galleries are capped at 2,000 images.
**For whole works that exceed 2,000 images it is acceptable to create 2+ galleries. Each gallery besides the last must fully utilize its 2,000 image allotment.
*While animated GIFs are permitted APNG is not fully supported at this time. Animated PNG files will be resampled as JPG for default viewing, it is recommended to upload as GIF if possible, and contain original files in the gallery torrent.
*Maximum gallery size is 10GB.
*There is a rate limit that compares an uploaders recent upload volume to their post history of good galleries, the calculation determines how many galleries can be publish by the uploader in succession. Uploaders will need to wait for the limit to expire if they hit it. Private / Unlisted galleries do not count as "good" galleries. <sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=252404&view=findpost&p=6011165 (Ref)]</sup>

====Archives====
*Accepted archive formats: ZIP
**[[Image:Point.png]] '''It is strongly recommended not to archive multiple folders together.''' Users should archive folders one at a time instead and upload them sequentially. This will help prevent [[out of order]] situations.
***If multiple folders are uploaded, it is important to make sure that all files that are desirable do not have any duplicate filenames, even if the images are not duplicates. Duplicate filenames in archives will not be uploaded due to a technical limitation with ZIP archives.
**Compression method should be ''Deflate'', ''LZMA'', ''PPMd'' or uncompressed (''Store''). Word size should not exceed 32. Encryption is not permitted.
*Maximum size for a single upload action is <span title="1,258,291,200 bytes / 1.16GB" style="border-bottom:1px dotted">1,200MB</span>. Uploading any more than this will cause the upload to silently fail and be discarded once finished.

==Updating==
All modifications to galleries can be done through the [[My Galleries]] UI.

*A gallery's [[description]] may be changed at any time.
**A gallery's [[category]] may be changed up to 24 hours after its publish time.
**A published gallery may not have its category changed to Private.
**A child gallery cannot have its category changed if its parent gallery is public, and may only be changed by reclassing using the [[Gallery_Tagging#Categories|category tags]]
**A Private gallery may have its category changed at any time.
**Reclassed galleries can no longer be reclassified via the Gallery Manager. Further reclassing can only be achieved using the [[Gallery_Tagging#Categories|category tags]].
*A gallery's name may not be changed after 24 hours have passed or if the gallery underwent a successful [[rename]] petition. Further renaming requires a new petition that must surpass the existing one.
*Once a gallery is published adding, removing, or reordering files will require creating a cloned gallery and counts as an update. The new (child) gallery immediately replaces the older one (with a new timestamp) once published. Cloned galleries are linked to the gallery chain and retain all [[tags]], [[favorites]], [[ratings]], description, and [[comments]].
**It is a courtesy to indicate what additions/changes were made when updating (using the description field).<div id="Bump"></div><div id="Bumping"></div>
**[[Image:Point.png]] '''Bump Limit''': To prevent front page abuse galleries will be locked if they are updated more than 2 times per 30 days.<div id="Exceptions"></div>
***<u>Exceptions</u>:
****Any valid additions to artist-specific galleries, ongoing comics / cg sets, or ongoing translation projects. These must be based on what is released by the artist / translator.
****Any changes for fixing an [[Expunging|expungeable]] gallery (e.g. removing forbidden images).

===Aged===
A gallery becomes "aged" 365 days after its last publishing. Such galleries cannot have their files modified. Any necessary changes require re-uploading and replacement [[expunging]] the existing gallery. This starts a brand new gallery chain without any of the previous gallery's metadata.

==[[Torrent]]ing==
*Users may choose to make a torrent of their gallery's contents post-publish. These torrents may also include non-image files or anything not present in the gallery.
**All files in a torrent must still adhere to the [https://e-hentai.org/tos.php rules] and must be relevant to the gallery. Any abuse of the torrent system may result in a ban.
**Users besides the gallery's owner may make torrents for the gallery as well.

==[[Rewards]]==
Each hit on a user's galleries rewards [[GP]]. Users will '''not''' be rewarded until after 4 hours have passed and the gallery is not [[expunged]] during that time. Getting enough hits can also earn a ranking in the uploader / gallery [[toplists]].

===[[Bounties]]===
If uploading content with a bounty on it, be sure to contact the bounty poster to claim the reward.

==As Published==
*All formal works (books, comics, cg sets) must be uploaded "as published" by their original creator as closely as possible.
*Non-supported image files such as BMP or PPM must be converted to PNG of the same resolution as the non-supported file type.
**Uploading both JPG along with the PNG files is permitted if they are both distributed by the work's creator.
**File sizes should remain reasonable. It is permitted to downscale original images only to bypass the 10MB file size limit (and the original files must be included in the gallery's [[torrent]]).
**PDF files should not lead to absurd resolution [[Expunging#Superior_Versions|upscales]] (e.g. 4534x6405<sup>[https://e-hentai.org/g/923932/2568945676/]</sup> where 1360x1920 is better). Users are encouraged to use the best non-artifacted resolution and provide the original PDF in a torrent.

Expunging

2022-03-22T10:35:04Z

Tenboro:

Expunging allows users to remove [[galleries]] from the default listing and [[searches]]. This is typically done because of duplicate or replaced content.

==How To==
Expunging a gallery is handled via a petitioning system.
Each gallery has a "Petition to Expunge" link on the right side above the images.
Any user with [[mod power]] 5 or above may start a gallery expunge.
Otherwise, [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 this forum thread] can be used to ask for an expunge to be created on your behalf.

The "Petition to Expunge" link will replace the gallery's image section with a list of reasons a gallery can be expunged.
An explanation for the expunge '''must''' be provided in the input boxes by the user who files an expunge petition, and in most cases an URL of the valid gallery should be provided.

Once a petition is created, subsequent users with a mod power of at least 2 may vote for or against the petition.
These subsequent votes do not require a reason for voting, but one may be optionally provided.
Votes for the petition add to the petition score, votes against reduce the score.
A user's mod power will determine how much their vote will contribute (capped at 30; 40 for base bonus users).

In order for the gallery to be expunged a petition must reach a score of 100 and then remain there for 15 minutes,
once that happens the petition becomes ACTIVE and the gallery is expunged.
A petition may have a score above 100, protecting it from 'against' votes for the required period of 15 minutes.

A gallery may have multiple independent petitions active at the same time.
In the event that one petition becomes ACTIVE all other petitions on the gallery are deleted.

Petitions left incomplete for more than 7 days are automatically cleared.

===Appeal an Incorrect Expunge===
In the event an expunge was carried out incorrectly, the expunge can be appealed.
Within the first 7 days of the expunge any user with 10 or more mod power can create an appeal petition.
Only [[E-Hentai_VIP|veto holders]] may create an appeal after this time.

Similar to expunge petitions, users may vote for or against an appeal with an optional comment.
If the appeal petition surpasses a sum of votes of 100 or more for 15 minutes the expunge will be revoked and the gallery will be restored.

After a successful expunge appeal only veto holders or users with a [[mod power]] of at least 25 may start a further expunge petition on that gallery.

Users who participated in the original expunge petition may not participate in voting on an appeal petition, aside from creating them if they realize it was incorrect.

===Before Expunging===
Make sure the gallery is "Visible"; this status is indicated on the left-hand side of the gallery.

===Reverting and Splitting===
Reversion should be requested when an uploader solely removes legitimate content from a gallery. '''Please do not expunge these galleries.'''
*Reverted galleries will be locked for updating to prevent further sabotaging.

Gallery chain split should be requested when an uploader overwrites a gallery with other irrelevant content, assuming that both iterations can be considered as valid galleries on their own.
*The split gallery will not have any ratings, favorites, comments, or torrents, but will retain tags with 10 or more power from the original chain by default.
**[[Image:Point.png]] You must specify in your report if the tags from the original chain should not be copied to the split gallery.
*Both the original and split gallery will be locked for updating.

To submit a reversion/split request:
*Step 1: Visit the version of the gallery to be reverted back to (not the inferior version).
*Step 2: Press "Report Gallery" and scroll down.
*Step 3: Select the "Other Illicit Content" option from the drop-down menu.
*Step 4: Put in your e-mail address.
*Step 5: Type "Revert" / "Split ''*Gallery IDs*'' " and briefly state why the gallery should be reverted/split in the "Report Details" box.
*Step 6: Send the report.

While not mandatory, you are encouraged to document your reversion/split requests over [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 this thread]. Notifying the community will help to prevent redundant requests from being submitted.

==Reasons To Expunge==
===Already Uploaded===
''This gallery is a duplicate of equal or lower quality of an earlier posted gallery.''

This explanation requires a link to the superior / previously uploaded gallery.
*An exact duplicate already exists.
*A superior version already exists ([[#Superior|see below]]).
*The gallery is a reupload of a work that has previously been removed by the administration.
**Content listed on the [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=19797 Do Not Post list] should be expunged as [[#Forbidden/Other|forbidden content]].
*The gallery is a compilation of works not permitted together:
**Images from official sets (such as a [[comic]]s, [[tankoubon]]s, or CG sets) should not be substantially included in other collections of images.
**Combinations of chapters from multiple [[tankoubon]]s are not permitted, although related chapters from multiple ''[[anthologies]]'' are.
**Multiple language translations should not be combined in a single gallery.
**[[Image:Point.png]] '''The compiled content must exist in separate galleries before it can be expunged.''' If the number of galleries is too much to list out in the expunge reason, a [[comment]] linking to the existing galleries is highly recommended.
*Bad-faith [[rewrite]] or [[translated|translation]] of existing content to add extremist or politically charged content.<sup>[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=242797&view=findpost&p=6016122 (Ref)]</sup>
**A link to the original work without third-party textual edits or [[redraw|redrawing]] must be provided.

<span style="color:green">Tag: [[already uploaded]] or [[compilation]]</span>

===Replaced===
''A newer higher-quality and clearly marked copy of this gallery has been uploaded.''

This explanation requires a link to the superior gallery.
*A superior version now exists which makes the current gallery inferior. ([[#Superior|See below]])
<span style="color:green">Tag: [[replaced]]</span>
*A gallery composed of [[watermarked]] reproductions advertising a website unrelated to the content's creation, scanning, or translation. To be expunged and tagged as replaced only when a non-watermarked gallery exists to replace it.

<div id="What Constitutes A .22Superior.22 Version"></div><div id="Superior"></div>

==Superior Versions==
The most common type of superiority is the amount of content a gallery contains. There are 3 classifications of content:

{|class="wikitable"
!Class !! Includes !! Desirability
|-
!<span style="color:green">Core Content</span>
|
*Any story images.
*Variant CG (with both character(s) and a background present).
*Colophons, omake, and original credit pages.
*Cover pages (included within the set > official promotional website > online stores).
*Translator credit pages. Only 1 is needed per translation group (even if team members change from chapter to chapter).
*Any advertisements included in the original work.
|| Always. A gallery missing any core content can be replaced by one that has more/all of it.
|-
!<span style="color:orange">Extraneous Content</span>
|
*CG set backgrounds or character portraits.
*Credit pages that are not part of the work besides those for translators (e.g. credits from the scanners, colorizers, or decensors).
*Any smaller resolution versions of existing images.
*Any additions to a translated gallery not included in the translator's release, even if the release is incomplete.
*Sketches or otherwise unfinished pages to an ongoing work.
|| Can be included but cannot replace an existing gallery with all of its core content.
|-
!<span style="color:red">Non-Content</span>
|
*Blank pages or pages that are effectively blank.
*Split versions of double pages that are already included. The same applies to book spines.
*Any "uncleaned" versions of images that are already cleaned and included.
*Cropped versions of existing images not included in the original work.
*Logos/banners not part of a credit page and not included in the original work.
|| Not at all, but do not make a gallery expungable.
|}

<div id="Order"></div><div id="Cover"></div><div id="Covers"></div>
The following factors also make a gallery superior to other versions:
*Corrected Order
**Front cover placement.
**For non-covers this only applies to stories or other instances where image order actually matters.
<div id="quality></div><div id="Quality></div>
*Better Quality
**'''Images should be as released by the source.''' Conversions, retouching, leveling, splitting double-pages into singles, or removing original source watermarks are '''NOT''' permitted.
**This includes cleaner scans, no watermarks/scanmarks, increased legibility of text, no folding marks, less artifacts, more visible contrast, etc.
**Maximum DPI is 300; anything greater is considered excessive.
**Single page scans are preferred over double-page scans.
**A fully complete gallery may replace an incomplete one of superior image quality; however, if both galleries are incomplete in different ways then they both stay.<sup>([https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=28293&view=findpost&p=2427563 Ref])</sup>
<div id="Resolution"></div><div id="Upscale"></div>
*Larger Resolution
**Upscales do '''NOT''' qualify.
*Duplicate Images Removed
*Updated Translations
**The edits must have been done by the same translator(s).

===Uploader Priority===
{|class=wikitable
!Priority
!Uploader
|-
!1
|| Original artist posting their own art
*Followed by the writer
|-
!2
|| Translator posting their own translation
*Followed by the cleaner/editor
*Followed by any other member of the group that worked on the project
*Followed by any other known member of the group
|-
!3
|| Commissioner of the art or translation (proof required)
*[[Bounty]] posters do '''not''' qualify as commissioners
|-
!4
|| Everyone else
|}

Priority 1-2 uploads can only be replaced if the new gallery is from the same user (or another member of the same translation team).

===Different Versions===
All versions of the following may exist simultaneously:
*''Translated'' and ''Raw'' versions
*Rewrites
*Translations by different translators
*Different censorships
*''Colored'' and ''Uncolored'' versions
*''Uncensored'' and ''Censored'' versions
*''Paper scans'' and ''Digital'' versions
**Digital [[tankoubon]]s '''do''' override paper scans that are not full [[tankoubon]]s (and vice-versa)
*[[Gallery_Categories#Image_Set|Imagesets]] of any theme, if uploaded by a different user. There is no such thing as a "more complete" collection in this regard.
**New imagesets being identical to already posted imagesets can still be expunged.<sup>([https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=193577&view=findpost&p=5507144 Ref])</sup>

==Bad Reasons To Expunge==
{|class="wikitable"
!Bad Reason
!Explanation / Proper Action
|-
|Gallery contains [[lolicon]], [[shotacon]], [[toddlercon]], [[incest]], [[abortion]], [[guro]], or [[scat]] content || [[Tag]] appropriately and move on. This also applies to anything else one might find "unappealing" or "offensive".
|-
|Miscategorized || [[Tag]] with [[Gallery_Tagging#Categories|the correct category]] to help change it.
|-
|Gallery is non-pornographic || [[Tag]] appropriately ([[non-h]], [[western non-h]], or [[non-nude]]).
|-
|Incorrect Name || Make or request a [[Renaming|rename petition]].
|-
|Incomplete / Sample || An [[incomplete]]/[[sample]] gallery may only be replacement expunged by a more complete gallery.
|-
|Torrent || A gallery's [[torrent]]s (or lack thereof) are not relevant to the gallery itself. The [[EHTracker]] has a separate expunging system.
|-
|Themeless || Galleries [[themeless|with no central theme]] are permitted.
|-
|Rewrite / Redraw || [[Rewrites]] and [[redraw]]s are permitted.
|-
|Mistagged || Post the incorrect tags [https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=184081 here].
|-
|Deletion Attempts (e.g. Replacing a gallery with a white page) || Request for a [[reversion]] instead.
|-
|Excessive Updates || Report as "Other" and request to have the gallery locked for updates instead.
|-
|Uploader / User Request || Uploaders do not have claim to their galleries once published, they may [[My Galleries#Available Actions|disown]] them if they wish to remove association. Copyright claims may only be done by their respective owners via the [[report]] function. <span style="color:red">'''Misrepresenting copyright ownership will lead to a permanent [[ban]].'''</span>
|}

===Underage===
The following are the correct actions for underage content:

{|class="wikitable" style="text-align:center"
!rowspan="2"|Type !! colspan="4"| Actions
|-
![[Tag]] With !! [[#Prohibited Content|Expunge]] !! [[Reporting|Report]] !! Alert
|-
|align="left"|Drawn ||align="left"| '''[[lolicon]] / [[shotacon]] / [[toddlercon]]''' || '''<span style="color:red">X</span>''' || '''<span style="color:red">X</span>'''||

|}

==Gallery Visibility==
If a gallery is "Visible" to at least 1 user (besides Tenboro) it is counted as existing in the system and thus any re-uploads should be expunged.
*[[Private]] galleries are not to be expunged unless they contain [[#Forbidden|forbidden content]].

==Effects of Expunging==
*Expunged galleries cease earning any [[GP]]. Galleries expunged within 4 hours of their publishing receive no [[GP]] at all.
*Expunged galleries become [[Searching|unsearchable]] by default and require the advanced search setting "Show Expunged Galleries".

==[[Rewards]]==
Expunging galleries (as well as [[renaming]] them) rewards points for the [[Toplists#Cleanup_Toplists | Cleanup Toplist]]. Users receive more points for being the first to petition.

[[Image:Point.png]] Repeated poor use of expunge petitions may result in the user being [[banned]] from using them further.

==Limits==
*Expunge petition on protected galleries, such as those that have previously been de-expunged, can only be started by [[VIP|veto holders]] or users with a [[mod power]] of at least 25.

==Forum Links==
*[https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=242797 Expunging, Appealing and Reverting Assistance] - For galleries that require more votes be it expunge or appeal.
