Why are you doing this to me again?

This site was created for people to post their own images and videos. I am ONLY tolerant of internet images because, if I weren't, many members would end up reporting each other over memes and tributes. Most people here cannot (or pretend they cannot) understand the difference between those and third-party porn taken from internet. I know this from experience - I've tried explaining fair use concept many times with little success. Therefore, I must tolerate internet images, as long as a member doesn't make a habit of posting them predominantly or pretend they are personal.

The same reasoning largely applies to AI content. I cannot forbid it completely because people might use AI-generated memes or apply fantasy-style modifications to their own photos and videos. That is a form of art, so a complete ban isn't feasible. However, if I see an account that predominantly posts AI images completely unrelated to their own, I will delete it.

That said, I barely look at the uploads on this site. I built it for you - the members, so you can collectively decide what kind of content belongs here. Please stop asking for my opinion and using it as an argument against other members.

I thought you meant profile page. That was made so long ago so that not only I do not remember the reason, I forgot it's there altogether. My guess would be someone did not want others to see piles of shit someone sent to them and were too frugal to destroy them. But it's possible I just made it myself same way I made possible to hide friends, favorites and comments. Just as a package of premium options to make premium more attractive.

There is no such option. I don't know why bella! thinks there is.

Not entire. I left it for threads where people will not press it by mistake.

Out of 480 thousand comments only 16 thousands had rating. I.e. less than 4%. And only 900 comments had rating more than +1 which suggest the rest was also mostly rated by mistake.

I don't think it worth it. Once I saw dgraff's complain above I realized that it's more of a hassle than of use.

Did not seem important since almost no one uses that feature.

You are well aware that some of the most toxic and disruptive members of this site are paid members. The reason is simple: I would permanently ban anyone that toxic if they weren't paying. But that is the same reason I can't allow members to participate in the vetting of abuse reports solely on their paid status.

It was open for everyone. But voting members experienced personal attacks for their decisions and asked me to close it. Since the membership is shrinking and there are fewer and fewer members who want to participate in the process, I satisfied their request.

The reason behind 2 years threshold is that such member should be familiar with the site and its dynamics and that require time. There are indeed people who have been here for many years creating and deleting their accounts, but I simply do not consider them worthy of participating in the process, since they obviously tend to have other priorities.

I can't. Being a moron is circumstantial. What is moronic behavior in some circumstances may be wise in others.

How is this different from what there is now? Only verified members who have been on the site more than 2 years can vote.

I don't really trust anyone. I don't even trust myself on many things.

From my experience with this site it's more often about people with genuine pics feeling that those with fake pics steal attention from them because those pics are usually superior than their amateur pics, not so much about hookups.

You can always report members for being morons via "dangerous behavior" option. But I doubt other members will approve that.

Exactly.

Generally, you're right, with some nuances. For example, 10 points are divided among all "evaluators", not just given to first one.

However, I don’t think he’s referring to that. Based on his description, it seems the menu doesn’t appear when he clicks [Evaluate]. It works fine for me, so my guess is that he might be experiencing an issue with some pop-up/ad blocker, they happen to screw functionality sometimes. That’s just my assumption, though, I could be misunderstanding.

Not sure what you expect me to respond.

I definitely did not add the "freeze" option to add me more responsibilities.

I don't know how you people imagine it all works. That someone watches every uploaded photo and thoroughly verifies that it matches other photos uploaded by that member and to his ID? Lets leave alone that this would require a lot of useless work. How they imagine that can be done? By counting moles on your asses?

It does not work if the message was seen by the recipient. I mostly meant it for editing purposes of long "offline" messages, like if you make a mistake or send the message by accident before you finished.

Well, I made it several weeks ago. Only works for "offline" messages. In active chat it won't work.

Also, for better relaxation I would recommend some form of "nidra yoga" meditation.

Just pick whichever one works best for you from the list.

It will not help though if the underlying condition is somewhat serious. It will help you to fall asleep anyway, but you will still be waking up too early.

Relaxium pill contains:
L-tryptophan (Amino acid)
Melatonin
Magnesium
Ashwagandha
Chamomile
Passionflower
Valerian
Hops
GABA (Amino acid)

I say it would be wise to add some B-vitamin complex to it. But overall it looks like it may very well help you if you do not yet have serious conditions like anxiety and depression. If you do, consult a doctor. Mild tranquilizers or anti-depressants may be necessary. Anyway, don't wait too long if you do not see changes to better. Sleep issues tend to worsen over time and form bad sleeping patterns that are hard to overturn.

Look, I don't understand why this is so difficult to grasp unless the panel participants want to use my answers to such questions to unfairly remove someone they dislike or to protect someone they favor.

Let's use an analogy. Imagine you own a diner.

Situation 1: Two people come to your diner. Maybe both eat, or one eats while the other just talks, or perhaps they both only ask for water. You don’t mind because there are plenty of empty tables for other customers. They’re discussing business, buying and selling something between themselves. Would you kick them out for that?

Situation 2: A person comes into your diner and, without ordering anything, starts approaching your customers, trying to sell them some random items, like candy or even vouchers for another diner. Wouldn't you kick that person out?

1. If there is anything written on this site that asks to pay money for it, I would like to know. May be I have forgotten and there is. Some paid services are being offered, sure, but I don't think any of those offers qualify as "asking".

2. Though the statement is rather poorly formulated, he did have a point. I do not ban anyone for business per se, I'm for the freedom of business. I ban for spamming and solicitation. And one single sentence taken out of context is not a proof of that.

Check your private uploads and see if the images in question are there.

Several weeks ago there was a meltdown of one of the female members who posted a casual video of her son as private as she thought, but what really happened:

1. she posted that video as public
2. she did not see it either sent to the person she was chatting with, or in her public gallery becase now everything appears there only after reviews
3. she thought it did not go through and posted same video again as private
4. she saw it in private messages and assumed it was private while video was already public.
5. she logged out
6. video passed review and was published
7. she returned to the site next morning and was horrified to see her video public
8. I received a lot of angry complains

Since then I have updated the script so that if you post some pic or video as public but then you upload it again as private to someone, it switches to private automatically.

I've seen many freaks on this site, so I can't be 100% sure. The proof of age provided was very proper though. May be she is held hostage by abusive spouse, idk.

May not work in some browsers at all. I don't see any errors on the site side, so whatever happened - happened inside your browser and I can't know what went wrong without you describing me what exactly was happening.

There are all kinds of costs. Not necessarily financial, it can be time, reputation, potential risks, etc. Though eventually everything can be measured by money.

You claim you are real deal yet you told me that you would not prove yourself to other members and this is a quote from your message - "no way I would share an identifiable photo with the nut jobs on this site" and just now you suggested that it should be made by those very "nutjobs".

So, I assume you are just trolling and therefore I will withdraw myself from this discussion.

Life is not perfect because every action has some kind of cost attached to it. And not being cost-efficient is a valid reason enough for not doing something.

Because it's pointless. Nothing stops a person determined enough from acquiring a female verification photo. They may have friendly females, they may pay to prostitutes, there are even people on interned who offer such kind of service for money and it's not too much. Heck, I've even seen females being fooled into making verification photo for other sites. And recently, there are even AI generated images that can be quite convincing. Also, essential part of female profiles are operated by males with consent of their spouses whose photos they use. No matter what verification you do, such profiles will still exist.

And you just don't understand the numbers. Real revenge porn is rare and usually easily spotted. Those profiles mostly upload, plaster real names all over and go post somewhere else. If someone keeps chatting pretending to be female it's usually not a revenge porn, just some wanker getting who knows what out of it. And they mostly use internet photos with made up name which is copyright violation at best, not photos of someone they actually know and have grudge against or use their real name. And recently they more and more often use AI generated images which can't even be a copyright violation.

He does not understand that verification by photo does not prevent member from replacing images to something else. It's not a dating site where you upload couple of photos, verify and do not make any more uploads in years. Here people upload new images and delete old ones all the time. Someone would have to compare every new single upload to verification photo of the corresponding member. That's almost impossible job. This is exactly why I made verification voluntary and by other members, because they usually communicate with those they verified on a regular basis and may notice if profile is changing.

I do not ban members just for posting links to their profiles on other sites or kik/skype ids or phone numbers in their "bio". I do ban members who do that repeatedly in private chats and public comments. And the member you reported did not do that. The link in the "bio" is not clickable. If someone wants to use it they have to copy it, which almost nobody does.

Only profiles with public uploads can receive +3 points once in 4 hours.

You don't get it. I don't care about occasional internet pics, but if the community think it's not the place for them here, I will go with the community. That was kinda the main point I made the panel because of - I got tired of arguing with members some of whom are furious about internet pics and some genuinely think that profiles with beautiful internet pics are the best part of this site. I had to argue in private chat with both on a regular basis. And it was annoying and time consuming. "This profile with internet pics undermines honest members posting poorly made amateur pics" / "A-a-a, you deleted my favorite profile only because it had 4 internet pics".

I'm only strictly against deleting members who post occasional memes and humor because it's under fair use doctrine by default. But this seems to be so nuanced that most of people here can't understand it, even you, if I remember correctly I tried to explain it several times to you too. So I gave up. And I honestly don't care if the panel decides to delete a members who has noticeable proportion of internet images. And I would appreciate if you stop dragging me into this every time.

Because it's not linear.

Think about it. Popular page displays pics from 5 past days. If it was about plain views/votes older pics would almost always have preference over recently uploaded and fresh pics would only appear on it at the end of 5 days period. Instead it estimates not all visits from the beginning but has a gravity towards recent visits. If over past several hours some pic received essentially more visits than some previously uploaded pic it can become more popular even if it has less total vivists.

Also, if votes come from the same source they are discounted. I know that some of members here do "circle jerking" when one votes for another's pics many times in order to bump each others pics higher. And it's accounted for. Multiple votes from one source are not "worth" the same as votes from multiple sources. I tried to explain it to you once, but you chose to do not believe me and spread misinformation that it's about favorites now, not votes. It's not. It's just that you can't add to favorites more than 1 time and statiscically favorites somewhat correspond to votes coming from different sources, not to votes coming from the same source. So you made a fairly rational conclusion that it matters. But favorites do not count in the popularity formula at all.

Ok, I think it should be fixed now.

Can you please give me a link to a page with the comment in question? I assumed that it's on your image page, but it does not block replies from page owner no matter the settings of the member who left a comment. So I must be getting it wrong.

You can find replies to your comments/threads directly in the feed /forum/recent_replies.php available on the main forum page.

If you are talking about reply link being not very visible I can try to make it more prominent.

What exactly is confusing? I do not think this forum is very different from reddit. Indeed it has less options and lacks buttons that could be more distinctive than current elements, but the structure of comments is very similar. May be it's uglier on smartphones though, was not built for them.

That is not a problem, this is by design so that you can not swap them indefinitelly.

Women barely play it. /powerful.php?f

No. That was from the Manifest of Italian Fascists and they actually did a lot from that list, though not women voting rights.

Also, if you think standing for big government is standing for freedom, than I'm just waisting my time.

What party do you think stood for the following clauses?

* Universal suffrage with a lowered voting age to 18 years, and voting and electoral office eligibility for all ages 25 and up;
* Proportional representation on a regional basis;
* Voting for women;
* Representation at government level of newly created national councils by economic sector;
* The formation of a national council of experts for labor, for industry, for transportation, for the public health, for communications, etc. Selections to be made of professionals or of tradesmen with legislative powers, and elected directly to a general commission with ministerial powers.

* The quick enactment of a law of the state that sanctions an eight-hour workday for all workers;
* A minimum wage;
* The participation of workers' representatives in the functions of industry commissions;
* To show the same confidence in the labor unions (that prove to be technically and morally worthy) as is given to industry executives or public servants;
* Reduction of the retirement age from 65 to 55.
* A strong extraordinary tax on capital of a progressive nature;

I don't know. There is a site scanner only registered users can see external links and if I submit this site there it shows 0 problems. Why avast is blocking this site - is a mystery for me. May be there is some safe option that blocks adult sites automatically.

I'm not sure what was not clear in my comment. USSR ceased to exist, the weapons were left where they were located all over former republics. Ukraine was a former republic of USSR. It not only had a bunch of strategic missiles located there in silos (initially aimed at USA) but also bombers able to carry nuclear weapons and a lot of conventional long-range air to ground missiles. All transfered to Russia under control of USA according to the treaty that guaranteed Ukraine's safety, signed by USA, Britain and Russia. In fact, some of the missiles launched into Ukrainian cities by Russia and killing civilians are the very same conventional missiles Ukraine had given up. Ukraine still has nuclear energy stations able to produce weapon-grade plutonium, uranium mine and enrichment plant. For all I know they still could produce their own nukes without any foreign help if they wanted to disrespect their obligations not to.

In 1994, after dissolution of USSR Ukraine inherited about 130 UR-100N intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) with six warheads each, 46 RT-23 Molodets ICBMs with ten warheads apiece, as well as 33 heavy bombers, totaling approximately 1,700 nuclear warheads remained on Ukrainian territory.

All those were given up in exchange for guarantees of international protection. USA and Britain were among the countriees that signed up those guarantees. Now we can see it does not mean squat.

I would like to see USA and Britain returning those long-range (those had a range of about 7'000 miles) nuclear missiles to Ukraine and then "to be not Amazon" all they like. Impotent wankers that's what they are today.

Well, because the site was developed layer by layer it's not so easy to add something like that without looking over half of it's code. So I would say no. However, I think I made something like that for some aussie (I don't remember his nick already) for being a huge money contributor so I will check it out if it can be retro-fitted to the purposes you desire.

Not sure if you mean the same, but there is no a limit on the "bio" and some members write a whole lot there. Since it's shown on top of the page it may take a lot of space and may look ugly. To prevent that only 300 first characters are shown, the rest is hidden and may be viewed by clicking on "more>>>"

The milk is needed because it contains natural emulsifiers and it's impossible to make oil-water emulsion without some kind of emulsifier, that's why you need either eggs, milk or lecithin. I think it should work with any kind of milk, but I use whole milk just because I don't buy any other kind of milk.

I make exactly the amount I need so that I don't have to store it. I would not count for it to last more than couple of days in a fridge. It will not spoil just in 2 days indeed, but it may loose proper consistency. Industrial mayonnaise contain stabilizers that's why it lasts long.

You can make a mayo substitite with a bunch of products. Personally when making it home I do not use eggs, I use milk. Not that I do not like eggs, but when raw they add a small risk of bacterial infection, and also I often need less sause than comes out of 1 egg, with milk I can get exact amount I need and do not bother with storing leftovers. I'm no vegan, indeed.

Vegans can use oil, plain water and lecitine which is sold in powder, and whatever flavour addition they like (lemon or vinegar, mustard, etc). If you are lazy to look for powdered lecitine you can use soy milk or the liquid from canned peas, but I'm not sure about proportions, I saw youtube videos of people making it, but never used these myself.

I should point out that the member in question has some females in almost half of his pics. That's definitelly not "occasional". The only problem with this abuse is that I do not see any proof that those pics are from web. I won't waste my time looking for them in google and I am not familiar with every pic on the net. If those images are web-delivered, the member should be deleted, indeed.

It's on the main page and it says "uploads by tags". Here is the direct link /viewbytag.php

Indeed. In order to be able to moderate a group effectively the moderator should be able to see all posts, no matter the blacklisting.

People come for varios reasons to this site. Some come to discuss their psychological issues and believe it or not sometimes they find relief they were looking for. They don't even intend to post any pics. Indeed there is a bunch of regular trolls but they are not many. But making life harder for trolls I will make it harder for those who may need simple human connection. You want to deny that opportunity just because some moron created one fake profile to blacklist you? You know that I easily delete such profiles if you report them directly to me.
