As I do every year, as sort of a public service announcement, I want to remind you about Valentine's Day.

As it happens, I'm a little late this year since TODAY is Valentine's Day. I know, I should have reminded you earlier but at least you know now.

I recall that a fair few regard this as a "mean nothing" holiday and if that's your choice, so be it.

To those on the fence I'd simply remind you of what myself and some of the other older ones here have learned over the years ... it doesn't matter what she says, Valentine's day is important to her.

Me, I'm covered. I took her to dinner this past weekend and got her some flowers. This morning I was ready with a small box of candy and a mushy card.

Well, as no-one else is responding ... and I hate to see a question totally ignored ... I'll chime in here.

While I have no thoughts one way or the other, I do know it's a persistent myth. However, a quick search at Ask.com on "No sex before an athletic competition" shows that the scientific community seems to think it's a myth.

Still, it's rumored that Muhammad Ali wouldn't make love for six weeks before a fight. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Mistress Kent, I'm guessing you're aware that there are programs you can run on your servers that curb multiple logins with the same password from different IP's.

If you're not aware of them, ask at any of the adult webmaster resources and they should be able to help you out.

I don't know about the rest but I do have some idea of where in the country you're in. Unless I'm far off, you're 30 minutes from Ocean View and if you miss base (and shipyard) traffic, you can be at Va Beach in a little over an hour.

I used to live in that area myself and I gotta tell you, when spring time rolled around and the beach bunnies bounced around in their skimpy bathing suites and wet tee-shirts ... to ride down Atlantic Ave and see their tan bods, glistening with suntan oil and the water droplets on their skin ... or fresh out for the ocean ... man, not sure how that could *not* turn a guy on.

But hey, if babes with water don't do it for you, that's ok.

You can post the direct URL to the pics or you can post them w/in your message here by using the "image" feature.

When you're replying to a post, use the image icon and fill in the URL (on your server) for the image. That icon is the 4th from the left, just over where you're typing your text. It's in between the "Link Text" icon and the "quote" icon.

Please don't just post a link to a web page on your site.

For the record, we have no problem with you asking this question.


As far as the question ...

It really would depend on how "explicit" they are an who you planned on sending them to as a "promotion".

For example, we (my wife and I) probably have 6-8 calenders hanging throughout our home/office. The one in the garage is from a famous fantasy artist who does semi-nudes. The wife doesn't have a problem with it but that's because it's in the garage. I probably wouldn't have a problem hanging a softcore calender there (if I liked the pics) but that's about it. And remember, my wife is a TBP Editor so it's not like she isn't exposed to porn every day (more than me actually).

If you're targeting these promotions to adult webmasters, then I'd guess there's a 50/50 chance they'd hang them. It would mainly depend on if they had a "real" office or if they worked from home like me.

For consumers I'd say the odds drop to maybe one in a thousand (maybe even fewer) would actually hang one.

Still, will be interesting to see what response you get here. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Generally, the discount will only apply to the main payment processor.

In this case, due to your specific payment problems, Ken said he'd touch base with the site to see if perhaps they could do something to help. Can't make any promises at this point but we don't mind asking.

My guess is the post Denner is referring to is the one at:
https://www.pornusers.com/replies_view.html?id=56964#56981

BTW, for "announcements" about issues going on with their site, we encourage webmasters to post using "Site News" ... in which case, users will easily see them on the site's listing page. That would resolve your "Get more HEADLINE" question.

Also note, it's easy to tell at a glance which remarks (reviews/comments) the webmaster has replied to. Just look for the green note, "Webmaster Replied". Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

*I'm* not going to get into a protracted discussion of this one despite you and some users continued efforts to make it a topic for discussion. You are welcome to discuss it among yourselves, just don't be put off if staff isn't drawn into those discussions.

I regret not being able to make you happy. We get so few chances in life to really make someone happy that I hate to pass one up. Still ...

Currently, we don't even give Users badges for forum participation so it's unlikely (at this time) that we'd start giving something special to webmasters for that participation.

And as far as Trust Ratings ... (not to flog a dead horse or anything)

Despite some users thinking of them as a vote of "personal trust", they are not, nor have they ever been an indicator of a person's personal trustworthiness. They are an indicator of how much a particular user's experiences (as stated in their reviews) will be shared by fellow users. Understanding that context, you can see where they are not appropriate for webmasters. BTW, I mention flogging a dead horse with this one because the "real" meaning of Trust Ratings has been discussed (at length) in Announcements, in polls and in a number of other forum threads.

Webmasters can (and do) earn points. For details see the bottom of the page at: https://www.pornusers.com/profile_points.html

While I won't rule out that we'll add some sort of badge for webmasters in the future, it's not among the plans for the immediate future. Sorry.


That is not to say that we don't value the participation by you and other webmasters ... we do. And, we feel it is mutually advantageous. Hope you feel likewise despite the lack of a badge. We would hope that webmasters wouldn't feel slighted by the lack of badges but rather remember, PornUsers is, by its very design, focused on the end users. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Not trying to change your mind about CCBill but thought I'd toss this out there as someone who has a merchant account (not related to porn).

I'm guessing CCBill gets the CC "authorization" from a third party company. They'd be the one who's system would return an "error" if the address given doesn't match what they think it's supposed to be (based on billing address). My point is, if you could find out who does that authorization, that's who would need to fix their system so this doesn't keep happening. Otherwise, it's quite possible that you'll see it with other online merchants.

But again, that's just a guess about the third party doing the address check. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Now to Yariana's questions and concerns ...

Hang in there folks, this one is likely to run long. Those not interested in how we look at webmaster participation here at PU are free to skip right over this one. Don't say I didn't warn you.


Ok Yariana, I'll try to address your questions and concerns. But first I need to get us both working from the same page.

Your post in this thread are full of phrases like: "most porn forums", "most porn forums", "on most boards"and "these boards". Well, I can't speak for "most boards" so we need to drop that from the discussion. I can (and am happy to) focus on what we do on *this* forum. FWIW, I think the forum here at PU is somewhat unique among forums frequented by end users of porn. The tone and civility is one I think you'll find unmatched by other forums focused on this subject.

Along those same lines, your posts is chock full of phrases like: "as stated to me by other webmasters", "Speaking for other webmasters", "us webmasters", "most of us", "most webmasters I talk to" and "as many other webmasters I communicate with".

As it happens, I managed a rather popular adult webmaster resource for over a decade so I feel qualified to say, you'd be lucky to get ten adult webmasters to agree on what time it was, much less agree on anything else. While I'll be happy to address *your* questions and/or *your* concerns, please understand I can't address the unnumbered hoards of adult webmasters who may or may not share your concerns.

So, now that we're focused on *your* questions and concerns about *this* forum, I feel it safe to continue.

You say:

I would be interested in seeing those emails. You can forward them to Khan [at] PornUsers [dot] com I would like to see them since I'm generally the one addressing questions related to the forum and I don't recall writing any such email.

Yes, we do limit webmasters. We limit the number of new threads they can create in 24 hours. We also very much limit their wish to promote their sites. The Forum FAQ will address some of the ways webmasters are limited.

You say:

I have to think you're confusing us with some other forum. I see you have posted 33 times (to date) and of those, one post was deleted ... because it was a word-for-word dupe of another post. Dupes happen, we don't sweat them. I delete them as I find them. But, deleting a dupe post is hardly limiting your ability to participate.

Now you say:

I don't know what specs are acceptable in the industry since we have always been just a video site, so I tried to post a thread to ask you all what you thought but couldn't post a thread. I really wanted to know what you Pic lovers thought but couldn't ask you. I couldnt understand why I couldn't post a thread and was told webmaster had limited access to this function.


Again, I would be most interested in seeing anything sent to you by TBP/PU staff saying you couldn't start such a thread. As it happens, Mistress Kent (a webmaster) started a thread very much along those same lines. See:
Some advice from the experts in porn: Site format

I can also suggest you do some browsing of past polls and forum threads as there are many threads offering advice to webmasters about desirable file formats and sizes.

But getting back to (what I see as) your main gripe ... your inability to start threads.

Is it possible you just don't know the mechanics of starting a new thread?

If that's the problem, it's easy to fix. Just press the orange button in the Forum Threads header. The one labeled " +Add Thread ".

Be aware, ALL accounts, webmaster and User alike, require that their first thread be approved by staff before it displays. This generally doesn't take that long. To be clear, you can still post, it just doesn't show to everyone else until a staffer approves it. That is a feature we have here to curb drive-by spam. For example, I arrived this morning to 58 posts by a new account ... all blatant spam. Needless to say, they were deleted and the user banned. I mention that just to show you why we screen everyone's first thread.

In closing I'll state (for the record) what webmasters who actually participate here have learned for themselves ... We gladly welcome webmasters who wish to participate in a productive (not promotional) way. While there are some limitations placed on webmaster accounts, those restrictions are not such that they would prevent webmasters who are genuinely interested from participating in discussions.

If you ever have specific questions about a post you'd like to make, feel free to email me or the support email address from the "contact us" page.

And please do forward me those emails you mentioned so I can try to clear up the confusion they've obviously caused. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Several in this thread already for me to answer but I'll start with graymane's initial question.

As it happens, webmasters cannot vote on polls. But, as who voted for what isn't shown, you wouldn't see it if they could vote.


They CAN post replies to polls. If you're not seeing any it's because they're not inclined to participate in the poll issues.

Also, as noted by Mistress Kent, they can suggest poll questions.

Hope that answers your question. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Sorry, I can't really answer your question as it's one I've pondered myself. Still, I hate to see a question not responded to at all.

If I had to guess, I'd say perhaps fans of huge pics are viewing them on big-screen TV's or hope have that option to some day. But that's only a guess.

If I had to pick one, I'd say Drooler might be the best one to answer as he's a big fan of HUGE pics.

It's because an 8 followed by a right parentheses is read as the smiley w/ glasses. putting a space between the two solves the problem.

Another of life's mysteries solved.

FWIW, neither RagingBuddhist nor CyberToad have expressed any "disapproval" of PU/TBP recently. Nor did their activity immediately before disabling their account offer any hint as to their reasons.

Like a few of you, I have no idea why some users disable their account as opposed to just not participating.

And no, I can't see that we'll be creating any kind of "disabled list" in the foreseeable future. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

nadiencendia, before this goes any further allow me to assure you that you don't need to feel as if you need to defend your interest in this fantasy.

The very fact that TBP/PU lists these types of sites tells you that we do understand that there is a difference between the fantasy and actual r@pe. So again, don't feel as if any disparagement is being cast on your character.

My question was more to foster discussion that might give the rest of us some insight into the attraction to this type of fantasy.

As an aside ...
You may or may not be aware but in true (responsible) BSDM relationships, it's the submissive that holds the real power as they can, at any time, halt the activity by saying a prearranged "safe" word.

jberryl69, oddly, I'm fairly familiar with hypnosis in a number of its applications.

As I'm sure you're aware, while it's commonly reported that, "you cannot be forced to do anything that you would be set against doing" ... however, because of the nature of "hypnotic logic" (of the subject) a situation *may* be set up where behavior that would otherwise be against the subject's nature, can be made to seem perfectly appropriate.

Still, this isn't the place for protracted discussions of the nature of hypnosis. I simply hoped nadiencendia might be willing to discuss the attraction of the fantasy a bit more. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

I suspect that many see "mind control" as lack of consent which is, by definition, tantamount to r@pe. Not sure how that is rationalized w/in the fantasy. Perhaps you could shed some light on that? Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

Well, let's see if I can help with these.

For #3, I don't recall any instructions being posted.

For #2, try this ...

At https://www.pornusers.com/forum/forum_rules.html
... you'll find the rules for avatar graphics. It'll tell you the required size as well as what we do and don't allow. Once you have a graphic that meets the criteria (and you know where it is on your computer), do the following:

- From the User menu (at the top of the page) select "Edit Profile"

- On the profile page, locate the section labeled "Avatar" (about half way down the page).

- Press the "Browse" button and locate/select the graphic (on your computer)

- Press the "Save" button on the bottom of the profile page.

That should do it.

Your graphic will be pending for staff to approve but I think it shows up right away. If it doesn't show immediately, don't sweat it, perhaps it has to be approved by staff first ... I really can't recall.

As far as #5, I never disable email boxes/addresses. A fact that earns me a ton of spam but hey, that goes with the territory.

Hope that helps. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

I'll probably regret posting to this thread but after reading how upset some people were about this year's awards, I feel compelled to add a few words of my own.

I'm the one who pins the initial award post every year. I feel the amount of work that goes into in deserves the little bit of extra focus it gets by being pinned. Besides, knowing how popular it (generally) is, I want everyone to have a chance to see it before it starts drifting down the thread list.

Now on to the awards themselves ...

I look at the yearly forum awards like I would a "roast" type awards show. Are they sometimes a little caustic? Sure ... but as anyone who's ever watched a roast knows, if the object of the roast doesn't feel a little sting, then you're probably not doing it right. Obviously, different people react differently to this type of humor.

I don't know about you guys but for myself, I've been in different groups over the years and if the group is mainly guys, then you can count on them poking fun at each other. If you do a little research, you'll find it's how guys bond and communicate. Scientist might tell you it's sort of a way of seeing how your fellows react under stress. Still, no matter what group it was, the one thing that was consistent was the unspoken rule that, "if they didn't screw with you, they didn't like you". If you got messed with, then you could take some comfort in knowing you were considered part of the gang.

Something else to think about ...

The vast majority of posts here throughout the year are criticizing someone or something. We rag on porn stars, photographers, site owners, payment processors and pretty much anyone and everything associated with online porn. If you're critical of these forum awards, don't you think your criticizing is getting under the skin of some of those folks? But that's ok because to a great extent, that's the nature of a review site. Still, I think it's only sporting that once a year, we point that critical eye towards ourselves and show we can take a few "jabs" as well as just dish it out.

I'm a little distressed to see a few users were very offended by this years awards.

Graymane is maybe understandable. He's fairly new to our community here and he's not been exposed to this yearly tradition before. Maybe he's one of those guys who just doesn't take to humorous kidding. That's ok, if he wants to be that guy then that's his right. He's expressed his displeasure and it's been noted (by Wittyguy and others) so let's just leave it go at that.

I will admit to being a little confused by Messmer's reaction to this years awards. I think my confusion comes from how different it was from how he reacted to previous years.


For example, the first year the awards were posted he responded ... "Hilarious. I wish I had your gift, wittyguy. Thanks for making my day (using Clint Eastwood voice)."

And then his reaction last year, " Thanks once again this year for the hilarious Forum Awards, witty. Can't wait to see next year's and am already trying to come up with a memorable line or title so I'll be able to move up from honorable mentions to a major award." and then he went on to thank those who'd helped turn him into a porn collector.

But note he actually wished for a major award ... which he received this year ... and then was ticked off.

So again, I'm a little confused.

I don't know if you've noticed but Messmer has disabled his account as a result of all this. I can only hope that it was a momentary overaction caused by stress associated with the silly season or the full moon or whatever. I consider Messmer a part of this community and hope he'll reconsider and I'll see an email soon with him reactivating his account.

To those who got upset, I'd like to pass on a little quote that I'm fond of and that has served me well over the years ...

"Any person capable of angering you becomes your master;
he can anger you only when you permit yourself to be disturbed by him."
-- Epictetus

In closing I'll once again thank Wittyguy for his Herculean effort in putting together the yearly PU forum awards. I hope this years' drama won't put you off of doing the yearly awards.

To those who were offended by the awards, I can offer you assurance that the awards are all done in good fun and if that type of humor doesn't appeal to you, then you may want to skip over next year's award post.

Thank you all for your ongoing support of PornUsers. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

I wouldn't sweat it. I think it's pretty normal to overlook something you see all the time if it's never drawn to your attention.

I'm just glad it ws so easy to give you what you were asking for. They should all be so easy.

The first post of any thread *should* have a red option, "SAVE to My Threads" which I think will do what you're asking.

My guess is you're not looking at the first post of the thread when you're not seeing it .. but that's just a guess.

Also, if you reply to a post you should see a check box just above the "Add Reply" button that allows you to "Add this thread to My Threads."
