And I'm glad to see that the Admin implemented them: Galleries.
Please use them.
Remember, this site is primarily for exhibitionists, people who love sex, etc. It's not for people who want to transform the forum solely as a means for kitchen discussion and soap operas, etc. The self-appointed "site police" (aka as "Bella!") has tried hard to usurp the site with discussions on anything BUT sex, but now that she's blocking anyone who doesn't obey her "rules" it's prime time we transform the site into what it's supposed to be: Show your Cunt and Show your Dick.
Add some further functionality to each member's page.
For example, There could be some space, right in front, to add some links, such as, e.g., organizing the pictures. So, if say, someone might only wish to look at my cock pics, I could add a link titled "my cocks" and, upon clicking it, it could go to another page where I have the URLS of all of my cocks pics.
But that's just one idea. I'm sure we can come up with other ideas that fit into my "add functionality" suggestion.
It was only an idea.
Typos. Cant be bothered to fix them right now. Honestly I dont really use points, but the only thing you can really use them on is gifts and even then i dont gift a lot. Maybe the point system can be used to cut back on spam messages from guys going to anyone and sending them their dicks and asking stupid questions to people that don't want contact.--------------------------------------- added after 8 minutesAlso those that complain that the site sucks and such are idiots. They constantly bitch but yet they keep coming back.
It's an interesting idea about premium being required to spam private uploads but I'm afraid I closed that door when I made an option to block private uploads. With this feature I can't guarantee that member will be able to send private uploads to everyone even if he is premium.
And actually points are typically used to promote pics via banner and to fight over main page. You, being a female, just don't need it.
And the site already looks like a maze for most of people. I would think that it needs to be simpler, not more complicated.
I can make that thread creator can delete comments pretty easy, it will have it's own problems though.
If you want that a thread is visible but people can't participate in it unless you invite them... well, this can be done, but it's not gonna work as you imagine. Not at all.
I've seen this conception on other site it was called private inboxes but they were not visible to everyone.
I know what's the problem with this site, I made a mistake many years ago trying to bring mainstream public to it. I should have targeted gay and deviant people only. Nothing that is within my possibilities can save this site now. Simply because it's another game now on internet - it's all or nothing. Those that managed to grow big enough will become bigger, the rest will slowly die out. It's happening to every site I know. This site barely missed becoming big enough somewhere back in 2010, regrettably. I can be blamed for this, but I did not know a lot of what I know now, so I doubt I could do any different at the time.
P.S. and it's not about people leaving the site, people leave all the time sites like this one, it's normal. This site is not a bank or a grocery store where people shop all their life, people simply move on, change interests. It's about very few people joining in during past 5 years. Actually the retention of "loyal" members is amazing here.
Is it an easy fix? Help us out with information and I bet there is someone here who can help you sort it out...
RESPECT
This may come as surprise,but people do want to help you.
Ask for the help,there are loads of people here who work in technology here,use them..
And I don't have an agenda other than make the site grow.
You have something here admin, people are screaming out for an adult Facebook,you have it,yeah some of us are pains in the ass for you,but you'd miss us if we were gone...
You can't please all the people all the time anyway...
Then you can look at that page and see if the suggestions are worthwhile,you could even have a voting section on the suggestions and let them decide on the new features over a one month timeframe or something...
I'm trying to work the problems,not the people admin..
Offer memberships for potm winners...
Incentives make people do things,offer double points on special occasions....
Even this bit of dialogue helps people see the issues at hand,solutions admin, that's what we want...we know the problems..
Help us to help you..
Big corporations dumped a lot of money over past decade into internet projects. They can afford it, since their goals and monetization methods are different. They basically get customer base - people's data, tastes, preferences, they mostly don't care about revenue from their sites. So everything was free. Now they are starting to draw balances. They start kicking out mature content, censoring inappropriate posts. But most of small sites are already dead or on a brink of extinction.
And there is a side that you are not seeing. It's harder to process cards for adult sites, it's harder to receive money, many banks may close your account if they see you get porn-related money. I can't ask people to pay more because I can't guarantee I won't be shut off financially tomorrow. If this site was huge I could probably figure something out, but with small revenues there is no many options and there is a constant risk. You know how life is, when you are big and wealthy, it's much easier to find solutions and not so simple when you are not.
I suspect that when you say there are approximately 50 paying members, you must be speaking of 50 members who have COMMITTED themselves to reoccurring memberships. I want to believe that there are other members who buy points whether regularly or occasionally.
Points purchases give premium status for 1 month, just not full premium, but I can see it in the system anyway. There are currently 93 premium memberships including from points purchases and gift premiums that are at least 20. There are indeed people who paid at some point in past, but no more than 70 people really pay for the site any given month. And this number was never over 200.
Thank you for the statistics.
In other words - people are not getting what they came for. That's why they leave, mostly just couple of days or weeks after joining. It's like if you go to buy coffee in a tea shop. There is none, so you leave and do not come back. It's normal, I can't do anything about that except hiring a bunch of fake females. That is by the way that sites like AFF do. But I don't have that kind of money. Also, I honestly think it's a rip-off, something that is against my principles.
Gay people were connecting here, i.e. finding what they wanted. I made a mistake allowing general public here along with trolls that pushed away gay and "strange" people (body modificators, cross-dressers, etc). Look at some of the abuse reports. People seriously report members for saying they were high on meth or for photos of weed. Everything that is out of approved norm is not tolerated by current public. General public turns everything into boring shit. I did not realize this back at the beginning. I figured it out slightly later, when it was too late.
I’m a straight guy who has already lucked out here big time by finding a beautiful girlfriend of 2&1/2 years. I’ve actually heard of more straight relationships that started here. Real women who interact numbers have always been small, but they are a lot lower now.
I have no issue with people that aren’t heterosexual as all of my friends would attest to, i like talking generally with bi/gay guys and other straight people on here...i’m from Sydney (i have a tonne of gay/bi friends in real life - they are fun as).
The great thing about this site is that even though we are showing our private parts; it’s also a place to make friends that you can chat with and it doesn’t need to be about anything sexual.
That is this site to me - it’s incredibly unique in that way
OH, and stop telling people to slit their mothers throats when their mother is on their death beds..
Back in the day, people tore lumps out of each other, it's how I met you fuckers in this thread,chat fights, people called me a cunt,I called cunt at them right back,problem solved...
Nearly everyone who has posted in this forum in some sort of dispute would be banned on any other site...
Some sites you can't even say to someone "fuck off" even in jest...
So how far do you go to moderate content?
Moderation doesn't mean you need to conform to what other sites restrict .. This is our domain, not theirs..
However, posting not leeegal images such as chiiiildren, ****, ****, or other miscellaneous that has zero tolerance would be grounds for dismissal.. NOT being a representative of your true self used to be not tolerated but I read admin has basically given up deleting fakes more or less..
You create a site, you make the rules, you govern the rules, you create an audience and participants..You have fun.. Bring back main chat, logs, 5 people to ban out of chat,,, try and keep fakes to minimum.. The site is suffering more than yesterday is because it's scope or recent success has been changed from its original idea..
Other sites you can't say half of what we say here...
That's why people like this place, yeah the fakes have gotten silly,but it's not any different to any other site in that aspect, there's catfish everywhere online...
Verification on members would help root out fakes,I know some people get pissy about this,but I see people showing their faces,but can't provide a verification pic...and as admin has pointed out before,the fakes give the guys what they want to hear....
I've done it myself, where just to test a member out, I've said the dumbest shit possible,and I get a response,I know full well if I spoke to an actual women like that,they would tell me to move on...
So fakes become the entertainment,guys start thinking that nearly every female account is a dude...when that is not the case...
Admin only has to put the reporting bounty up to 100 points again and people will report the fakes all day long...
But even then the abuse panel can get tetchy and stupid..
And the changes admin has made,while I don't agree with what he has done with blacklisting feature,all the games and contests generate interest for a positive feature...
It's always been about the members,we drive the content..
Whether it is good bad is up to an individual's perspective at any given time..
When you use pictures that are not you in order to get attention, points which is stealing in essence goes against the integrity of the business. This is the ONLY name I have and these pictures I can back up with verification. The wild life photos are to add and combine my ideas.. But then again, I am me. PERSONALLY, whether someone is fake or not is secondary since they don't want to reveal their true identity is up to them. The problem here is that the site can't prove if the true participant is within the age range allotted.. But my question is whether it is the responsibility of the site to police such matters? My feeling is that if there are pictures being put up that appear to be very y oung and possess different people on site with females, males and only 1 person listed on his screen names with no permission to display these photos by people on the site should be a breach of site integrity..
There have been fakes that are good people also. If you don't post pictures but are respectful to members of our community I consider that valid.
in conclusion, my synopsis shows that the original idea worked and drew people in our domain back then. Now since many features have been changed is reasons why popularity has diminished. There was persona to our group but not anymore.. All i see is a site that is on life support with main pages showing unreal participants. To some it is art, to others it shows insincerity.. in my opinion this site was set up as an amateur site to express one's sexuality to a degree that they are normally suppressed by sociological rules.. To live in fantasy was the original idea. Follow me? Now it is constricted and the main bloood vessel is no longer functional. It is ironic that the old timers that have stuck it out remember all the great things that happened on this site years past because it meant something to them..So therefore this site was a very special place indeed...
So what can be done in my opinion? Go back to the original idea and build the site from there...

congratulations redbear that was fucking funny.Your post has made me giggle and will be re-posted in my blog called SHITS and GIGGLES . thank you having fun is what this site is all about.
Some fighting, rivalries, etc made the site fun... and more importantly, made cunts grab the AMEX. Now, it is a bunch of lames here. Only know how to cry and complain. Well, look at what that did for the site. Yes, keep listening to the Walrus. Her insight has proven very effective. She could fuck up a free cup of coffee.
Also, people do not join this site to be trolled by you even if this may look fun to you. Though I don't think it matters much, you are personally responsible for departure of at least 1 member per week for many years.
Good luck in your mission Cody,I don't think people care enough to stop the site dying off permanently...
With more and more sites stopping adult content,this site should be rammed with new members all the time...
You can't get people to this site unless you advertise...
