perhaps you should look here to start:

I think you need to be really specific about lineage - in this case, there are known sources circulating, but you don't know which one you've got. Time to do some research to identify yours.
Once you know EXACTLY what you've got, post it up again.
I'm not a mod, but I think that's why they're being pulled. Not enough specifics for a show that's reasonably recent. It might be different if it was a show in trade from the 60's or 70's, where recording info might not have been kept with each trade. A "modern era" show is theoretically new enough to have recording info, especially in this case, where a mod has commented that there are several tapers' known lineages circulating.

Hope that helps...

That's exactly why it's pulled:

& you can't re-up torrents that get pulled. In a lot of places, that will get you some privileges taken away, if not banned...

It depends why it's been pulled. Some torrents have mistakes that can be corrected and re-posted "properly". I would think if the seeder could do some research and identify his recording with the etree information, it could finally be re-re-re-re-posted with correct lineage, and be good to go!

5. CDR rips of material available on Silver CD and rips of CDRs burned from previously downloaded lossless files are not permitted.

nothing like flac > CDR > (extraction method > wav >) flac <<<<<which is what you've done unless you happen to have an uncirculated source.

Well... don't be discouraged. It's just the file set wasn't up to posting criteria. It happens...

Try something else, just make sure it follows the site's posting rules. If you have problems like this, it's best to find the original posting & see what the moderator said in the post. If that doesn't answer your question, ask the moderator who pulled/put hold on it. They will do their best to help you resolve your issue...
