It won't happen again. I should have though that through a bit better. The promo price is the same as the TBP / PU discount price so everyone should ignore the promo. I tried editing it out but can't.

Mason's new studio has finally opened it's doors for members and downloads. I just joined so I can't vouch for it, but Mason's work with Elegant Angel was superb and I have no reason to think this will be any different. The site is affiliated with Mason's other site Erotica X and that's part of the Open Life Network. I can vouch for both Erotica X and Open Life as I've had memberships there before.

I don't think I'm breaching any rules to mention that there is a promo code available for 50% off. The code is OPEN50. With the studio being new, the site is likely small so having a discounted price at $15 is a good idea.

I'd love to stay and chat, but I've got Maddy O'Reilly's first anal scene to watch...

… it bugs me when they get the same billing as the female models on porn sites. Let me explain.

At a network that I’m a member at now the scenes list all the cast. The site I’m downloading from features parties with lots of people, both male and female. The cast list has many of the models listed, but often starts by listing some of the men, and usually intersperses the men’s names with the women. Since I name the downloads for the women in them, it makes it more confusing for me. Is “Tyler” or “Pat” a new female model I might like to find more of, or is it male?

I won’t name the network or site because they aren’t the only ones who do this. I’ve complained about it in past reviews of other sites.

I have nothing against the men in porn, and I think they deserve credit for the work they do. But I hold the opinion that the men in straight porn are really nothing more than a prop. The scene may have a couch or a bed, and it needs to have a penis too. The male supplies that. The male’s job is simply to show off the female at her best.

I have nothing against listing the male talent, I just don’t like it when they get top billing.

Does anyone agree or disagree?

I realize that what you wrote is quite contradictory, but it's an opinion that I share. I can't explain it, but while I definitely prefer all natural, I like women who are heavily tattooed or openly tattooed. Bonnie Rotten, Krysta Kaos and Asphyxia Noir are among my favorite performers.

Or will you? Given the topics around here one could easily argue that Frost was talking about anal sex when he wrote the last stanza of The Road Not Taken:

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

Mmmmm... less travelled...

I'm adopting this as a new phrase in my lexicon: "I'd like to tongue punch her fart box."

Now all I have to do is figure out how to incorporate this into civilized office and dinner table chat.

As most members here probably already know, the former Elegant Angel director Mason is off on her own now. I’m not sure if she has any affiliation with EroticaX, but she has a sister studio called HardX. They have a blog, and they have trailers for what has to be some of the hottest porn to be made in years, but there are no obvious signs that the studio website is about to go live any time soon meaning the titles are only available as pricey VODs.

I have read elsewhere that Mason was talking about a late February date for going live, but obviously they’ve missed that. I’ve also read that some people stumbled on what appeared to be a beta test of the site that was up for an hour or two.

I know this is subjective, but it seems to me like this site is going to offer some amazing porn and may be a shot in the arm to a lagging industry. I’ll admit that a lot of the reason that I’m interested in this studio site is that Mason shoots stuff I like. It’ll be like an early Christmas when they go live and if they offer all their titles.

Does anyone have any information on when the new site will be up?

I've been actively buying and downloading porn for well over a decade now, and up until recently I could best be described as a hoarder. I almost never deleted anything. This past summer I did delete a bunch of old, low-res stuff that did free up some space.

One thing to keep in mind is that the furious pace at which you're uploading won't continue. You probably downloaded 1.5TB recently because you hit the mother lode of stuff you like. That won't happen all that often. If you have 16+TB of space I suspect you have a long way to go before you need to worry.

Try to revisit some of what you downloaded occasionally. You'll probably find that a lot of it no longer interests you so you can probably delete it. On the other hand, I have poor quality old porn still in my collection simply because I like those particular scenes. Neither of us needs to justify those choices to anyone.

I have 15 external drives, mostly WD. When I cleaned out some old porn I also eliminated any drive that was less than 1TB. Many of my drives are 2TB which means the same physical size holds twice the data, and as hard drive capacities increase I'll start buying those when the price per GB is acceptable.

I also backup everything. I have never suffered a complete failure of an external drive, but the probability of that happening sometime is high so I backup regularly. I backup onto the larger kind of external drives, the kind that also require their own AC power, because those are much less expensive per GB and since they're only for backup storage the reduced convenience is no issue.

As for drive storage, find something that works for you. I have my primary drives in a locked briefcase at home because no one would question that given my circumstances. A tool box, tackle box or even a gym bag might work in your case. Storing backups is a little trickier since good practice dictates that these be stored in a separate location. But since the primary reason you're backing up is to protect against drive failure, you may not see the need to store those in a separate location. If you choose to find a different place for your backups, my advice is that it be convenient to get to otherwise you probably won't backup as much as you should. Or keep you active backup drive nearby and stash your dormant ones.

I hope some of this helps!

The oldest in that folder was from March 2000 - a whopping 44 megabyte file at a grainy as hell resolution of 352x240 and a 700kbps bitrate. Hard to believe that was cutting edge at the time.


I did something similar this summer. I managed to eliminate a lot of stuff that was so poor quality that it just wasn't worth keeping. I managed to consolidate 22 external drives down to 12. The physical space saved there was worth it. Of course, these days I've been downloading a lot so the drives are filling up again.

Damn this thread brings back memories! The slooooow dial up connections. The photos that took forever to download. I remember the first 'video' I ever saw online was a 3 or 4 second long GIF. I thought that the world had changed.

As an aside, I remember swapping some VHS tapes with a co-worker back in '96 or '97 and he expressed the wildly insane opinion that someday we'd be able to watch and download ENTIRE porn movies over the internet. I laughed and told him that I'd like to try what he was smoking. The worst part of that story is that he was an in-house investment portfolio manager with a lot of experience in raising capital. He jokingly suggested that he and I should get into business. I can only imagine if we had. There might be a whole line of ass-themed movies, like "The Admiral's Ass Cravings," or "The Admiral Rows the Little Man in the Boat, and then eats ass..." Okay, I'd need better titles...

1. At any given time, fewer than 10. But I always have a wider circle of maybe 20+ that if I stumble on their stuff I buy it.

2. IAFD (because I prefer DVDs, but I'll download anything) and indexxx.

3. I use IAFD mostly because most of the models I follow are American and IAFD tracks these fairly well and a lot of American actresses don't seem to have the same identity crises that European models have. I do go to indexxx for European models though.

4. Body type mostly. And being a bit of an anal queen.

This site a very good job of offering info on both European and American models. As far as I know. All their links are for paid sites. Mind you I think all of the sites I'm referring to only offer links to paying sites.

http://www.indexxx.com/

This site does about the same thing as porn teen girls but I don't like their design and navigating is harder than on PTG. I also don't think you are getting more than from PTG.

http://www.data18.com/

This is the new guy on the block and it is the best one of the bunch in large part because their search engine allows user to search by keywords. They do the same as indexxx and PTG in that they keep track of both American and European models.


pat, you're a living encyclopedia of porn knowledge. It's great to have you here.

I enjoy Hitchens too. If you haven't read his book Missionary Position yet I'd highly recommend it. It embodies everything that Hitchens stood for, and in this case takes a revered icon and absolutely trashes her. Hitchens seems to do his homework in everything he wrote, and this book caused me to rethink the hero-worship that surrounded Mother Theresa. I think I could sum it up by paraphrasing a general theme in the book: Mother Theresa wasn't a friend of the poor, she was a friend of poverty.

It's a short book and a delightful read. The copy I have has a quote from a reviewer on the cover that I love. he calls the book "deliciously mean."

There was also a short and amateurish documentary made of the same title. Hitchens lays out the same arguments in the documentary.

The main reason why beach volleyball is popular is because you have some attractive athletic women jumping up and down. I dare say the bulk of viewers have no clue what the score is during a match because that's not what they are looking at.

At least in my version the veil of hypocrisy surrounding this sport would be removed by adding what everyone really wants to see. You lose a point and a member of the team loses a piece of clothing. The game ends when one of the two teams is completely naked. This way viewers would be able to ogle...oops I meant to say look at many semi-naked women. To make it even more popular(probably not possible) you could add that it would be a best 2 out of 3 where the members of the loosing team has to wrestle naked in jello.


They keep score??? Seriously? Like a real sport? I never noticed that. I'll have to keep an eye out for that next time I find a match to watch.

As much as I love nudity, and I loooove nudity, I think that part of the allure is the skimpy uniforms and keeping them on is just fine with me. Unless it's for some charity benefit and then I'm okay with 'strip volleyball.'

I tend to focus on niche, though define my favourite niches fairly broadly and have a lot of interests. I will also join a site if it gives me access to a specific model that I like.

Please take what I write with a grain of salt since I'm not tech expert.

My thought would be the same as what EverNight wrote: buy a new PC. My thought is that if you just make some upgrade you still have a lot that can fail. Your power supply, for example, may be strained by new components and fail. Any one of other components could do the same.

Most manufacturers sell off-the-shelf computers that will serve most purposes well for very little money. So unless you need a high-horsepower PC for some specific purpose I'd buy new.

I detest all sports as rabidly as someone who loves sports must hate common sense, but I’m willing to strike a compromise. As all forms of media other than porn seem saturated with Olympic coverage now, I’ve thought of something that might finally make me watch some of this coverage. This comes as I recalled finally finding a sport that I liked when I turned on the TV two years ago during the summer Olympics and had a bit of an epiphany.

My proposal: Make women’s beach volleyball a winter sport too.

Women’s beach volleyball has everything any sports enthusiast should like. If not, then it at least has everything I like. It has attractive, athletic women, it has attractive, athletic women is skimpy clothes, and it has attractive, athletic women in skimpy clothes who pat each other on the bum as a sign of solidarity. What more could you ask for? Well…

And adding this as a winter sport too would mean that it would have attractive, athletic women in skimpy clothes who pat each other on the bum as a sign of solidarity with erect nipples!

Please support me in my quest to have this included in the winter Olympics.

If I’m successful with this I plan to leverage that success to lobby to have women’s beach volleyball added to other venues. The office and retail environments could be improved with this addition. So could new and used car dealerships. I’m also thinking that the Roman Catholic Mass could be improved with this too. Instead of a homily, the priest could referee a match. I’ll bet collections would go up.

Oh, and in case I forgot to mention this, women’s beach volleyball has attractive, athletic women in skimpy clothes who pat each other on the bum as a sign of solidarity.

Just sayin’…

I'm going to have to side with Khan on this. TBP/PU has negotiated a lot of discounts and when we join a site through TBP/PU I presume that TBP/PU gets a small 'finder's fee' from that. That may even occur through just clicking through to visit a site. I get so much value from TBP/PU that I join through here as often as I can, which is 95% of the time. I find that most email discount offers I get are the same as the TBP/PU discount so if I want to take advantage of those I don't even open the link in the email, I join through TBP/PU. The only email offers I accept and use are the times when Fame Digital has $5 memberships.

I rely on TBP/PU far too much to eat into their revenues.

Evil Angel is a stand-alone site (no additional sites offered with the membership) while Mike Adriano comes with a bunch of other sites. There is a substantial amount of overlap between the two.

If you like Evil Angel's style of scenes then you can't beat these sites. They offer some incredible porn (though admittedly not for everyone as most of it has a harder edge) and they offer it in a range of downloadable file types and resolutions. I've been a member to both sites many times and will be again in the future.

My recommendation if you have never been a member at either site is to start with Evil Angel. They offer a discount through PornUsers which makes it an excellent value. Then, since you can see everything on both sites through the tour pages, you can decide how to get a membership to Mike Adriano. My choice would be to wait for a rainy weekend when you have nothing else to do and join using the two-day trial and get the scenes you want that aren't on the main Evil Angel site. There is a lot of overlap, but the network with Mike Adriano still has some stuff not on EA.

I don't know why Evil Angel (the studio) opted to create two sites, but the fact that they offer deals to both though here still makes it a good deal.

The bottom line: join, join, join, but do it strategically. These are great sites. Also, when you do join them, please post a review to let us know what you think.

Welcome to PornUsers. I hope you stay around and become part of the family here.

(Also, if you don't see the PU discount when you want to join you need to clear your cache and history.

One other important note, especially if you want to take advantage of the trial membership, is to check the confirmation email to see what web address you need to go to to cancel. Fame Digital - the parent company - uses multiple sites for billing and if you don't know which one to use for each membership that will be frustrating and you might end up having the trial converted to a full membership. To cancel, you'll need to know where to go, and you'll need some membership information so have that handy. Once you know their quirks it is easy to cancel.)

I hope someone can answer these questions because I'm interested in finding out too. Are sites like the one that features Gloria (Skinny Super Girl) part of the network too?

Jasta:

I wish I could be of more help, and I'll continue looking because I may be able to find an answer for you.

What I can say is that some titles in this series were available and may still be. I can say that with certainty that this is true because I used to have some of them. I don't have them now, which also says that they were pretty low resolution because last summer I dumped a lot of low res stuff.

I can also say that they don't appear to be available on the Buttman website that is part of one of the Evil Angel sites. I looked there and can't find them.

I'll continue looking and if I can find a positive answer I'll let you know. Maybe someone else will be able to assist. We have some walking porn encyclopedia members here. (and yes, pat, I'm thinking of you...)

I'm don't really feel qualified to weigh in on this as I don't tend to buy 'parts' of something. When I buy from iTunes, for example, I usually buy the album and not just a song.

I think what you're proposing is innovative. This is where I'd normally say that you can't make this work because the people who want to steal porn will always be able to do that. I won't say that this time because the last time I did you pointed out that if you could crack that nut you'd have a greatly expanded customer base. That was a eureka moment for me and made a lot of sense. I'm sure that kind of thinking-outside-the-box is what has made many smaller companies into larger companies.

As for scenes, I suspect that I'm part of a minority who probably would have limited interest in that. Not that I have a limited interest in porn scenes, but even though I subscribe to a lot of sites in the run of a year I research them here and at TBP so that when I do join I know I'll like what they have, and that means that for me it'll always be a better value to just join the site.

Where it would work for me is if a site offers a scene with a model that I'm always looking to add more of. But that's really subjective.

To answer your question though, I would pay as much as $4 for a scene, though I'd be more likely to buy if you could come in at the lower end of your predicted scale.

Good luck with this and thanks for keeping us updated.

No, not that closet. But John Travolta and Tom Cruise send their greetings.

A trait I have is that I like to collect first on-screen anal scenes or rare anal scenes from models who don’t do a lot of anal. (Don’t worry; I also try to collect every anal scene from the anal queens too.)

I realized something about the kind of anal I prefer when I watched some firsts over the past while. Tanner Mayes and Lexi Belle are examples of this, and in seeing the trailer for Maddy, the pending DVD with Maddy O’Reilly’s first and second anal scenes, these will be the same, and I’m disappointed.

I’ve discovered in watching these that there is something dissatisfying about them. I didn’t know what it was since I was living the dream seeing some of my all-time favorite stars perform my favorite on-screen sex act. What could be the problem? Here were these hot models taking long, balls-deep, slamming rough poundings. And therein lies the problem for me. I don’t really like long, balls-deep, slamming rough poundings. I remember when anal wasn’t so common and back then it was a spicy add on to a primarily vaginal scene. Yes, I can understand that when it is a model’s first on-screen anal the sex has to be more focussed on that act, but why does it need to be so brutal? What would have made me happier is if these firsts were done more in the style of X-art or EroticaX. With passion rather than brute force.

Maybe some of these rare anal models would have done or would do more anal if they didn’t have to endure such a relentless pounding. Call me old-fashioned, but a brutal anal pounding lasting 30+ minutes just doesn’t seem natural. (And I’m judging this subjectively by guessing I wouldn’t last that long if given the opportunity.)

Don’t get me wrong, but it seems like there is more hard anal these days than softer stuff. Yes, I know for anti-anal people there probably isn’t much of a difference, but there is. Part of the fault is mine since I regularly subscribe to sites like Evil Angel where some directors have turned hard, relentless anal into an art form, but I do wish that there were more natural anal scenes out there.

Does anyone else share this opinion or think I’m nuts? Does anyone have any site recommendations where anal is common but doesn’t seem to be some sort of a punishment for the model?

I'll start now! Can I run a site on them internets once you take over?

I'll also take email offers, as pat said, but only from sites that I know and have been a member at in the past. Sometimes the offers are too good to refuse.

Directly related to my reason for starting this thread, I should have reported that I heard back from the site and there was no recurring billing. That doesn't change my recommendation to avoid this add-on site.

I agree with that. I can't stand music running through a scene.

There have been some interesting answers here.

My two cents, which must be weighed low since I really have no idea what I'm talking about, is that TBP/PU and the upcoming sites actually have a lot to offer the industry. I know that most of the active members, and I suspect a lot of the people who are members but don't post, are active porn buyers. That allows you, Rick, to deliver something that not many other sites can: a group of people who are known to spend money on porn.

It's been said above, and I agree with it, that what the average tube-site viewer wants is likely different from what the average PU member wants. Sure, I'd like a bit of free stuff, but my reason for wanting it is because I'm scouting for a site to join and the free scene snippet will be a way for me to see if the content and format is something I like. To that end, I think a minute or two of free preview would be sufficient. But one caveat: make it clear to porn sites that what you have are active buyers so if they offer HD on their site then make that available in the free scene. Resolution and video quality is something that I judge in a preview and if all I get is low-res crap then I'm likely to avoid the site for fear that's all they have. Even if the site says that they have HD I prefer to see it since not all HD is created equal.

As FibiLove Co said in the post above, don't put too much thought into how you can satisfy people who only want free porn and won't pay no matter what. You've got an asset in the membership here who will pay, and in my case (and many others here too, I'm sure) who actually want to pay. What you're asking from the porn sites is simply some advertising and a free sample. They provide the free sample, you provide the paying customers. We're all happy!

My beef with VB is that they haven't modernized in years. When I first joined many years ago the file resolutions were probably at or above industry standards. Now they are way behind the norm. Even their daily "HD" offering isn't up to standard.

VB's best days are behind them unless they change their model and concentrate on quality rather than quantity, but then they'd lose members who want quantity even if it is crap.

I used to join a couple of times a year but I won't be joining again until they improve. And with their change to end the tour pages I'll likely never find out of they do improve so it's goodbye to VB for me.

I agree with pat, Hardcore Gangbang is as close as you're likely to get for this. I know of no site that has all three of the things that you're looking for. I know that none of the scenes have any pissing, and there may be some squirting but it isn't a main feature of the scenes. It happens if it happens.

I'm a current member to Hardcore Gangbang and will be posting a review sometime this weekend if you want more details.

Wow! I really, really like the look of this Rick!

I struggle to accept change and this won't be any different but the look and feel of the new sites will be worth that struggle. I'm sure once it gets up and running a lot of members will be exploring and posting tips for the new features. There are many reasons why I'm looking forward to spring this year (most of which centre around that fact that I'm trying to survive my 47th Canadian winter) and this update has just added another.

I'm convinced that this new site will exceed your expectations for increased membership.

One question, and I had hoped that someone else might have raised it since it is probably a stupid question. You mention this, but just for clarity, those of us who are members at PornUsers now don't need to request an invitation to join as this is automatic. Is that correct? I'd hate to miss out on the launch.

Keep up the good work Rick!

Thanks pat. You're a constant and reliable source of information. I had no idea the Elegant Angel stopped making porn. Would you advise that a person should join there one last time or do you think that the Elegant Angel stuff might eventually be bought by HardX.com?

It's too bad that they only have a few titles and won't start a site yet because some of the titles they have and will have soon are certainly must-haves on my list.

There’s some buzz on other boards about the January 29 release of a DVD titled Maddy, starring Maddy O’Reilly. The buzz is that it has her first and second anal scenes. The link given is to a site called HardX.com. When I go to that site it isn’t much more than a blog but there are clear signs that it is affiliated with (or more likely run by) Open Life, Mile High Media and Gamma Entertainment. HardX has also produced other titles that look interesting. The boxcover pics clearly show that the DVDs are produced by O.L. Entertainment Inc.

Does anyone know if this DVD will be made available on any of the Open Life sites? If so, does anyone know which paysite titles from this studio get uploaded to? I can’t imagine that given the affiliation with three big internet porn providers that this is a DVD only production.

If the site is an attempt to generate buzz for this and other titles it would be better if they would point potential customers to the site where it will be available.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I wish I could add something to this thread, but apart from thanking the OP and those who commented, I really can't. This is an interesting thread and I hope it carries on for a while.

Smart move. I've written all mine in Word for the past few years. I didn't plan of having to migrating them but I did that because I usually write, rewrite and edit them over a few days. It looks like that may have paid off.

Any site like the one you're hoping for would also have me as a member.

I should also say thanks for mentioning VIPissy. That looks like an excellent site and one that has just been added to my 'must join' list. Edited on Jan 01, 2014, 05:40pm

I’ve had several offers to rejoin sites that bill through the Fame network. The offer is a low price and includes the offer of a free 30 day membership to a site called Hardcore Super Porn. I joined Reality Junkies this way and took the free offer. My advice if you get the same offer is to avoid the optional free membership to Hardcore Super Porn. You won’t be missing much as the site is almost impossible to use and what they do have appears to be very similar to Videobox. Many of the studios and titles are the same and they have the same low resolutions too. The confirmation email was from “The DVDbox network,” so it might even be affiliated with Videobox.

When I tried to cancel the membership to avoid a charge the link directed me to Gamma Support but no membership could be found. That could mean that I don’t really have a membership that could be rebilled, but it could also just be a problem. I’ve emailed them for confirmation.

My advice is to avoid the free offer if it comes your way. The site is crap and cancellation problems add to the frustration.

I agree. This forum is unique in its civility so maybe if a woman dropped in and saw that this is a much more civilized forum they might stay. But I do think there is a much, much smaller audience of porn-buying women than porn-buying men.

However, it shouldn't take much work to manually import it.



Rick - thanks for giving a definite answer on this issue. I really think this will help the new site grow more quickly and will also allow long-term members to feel like they're contributing to the new site's success. I think it will be a win-win for the site and the members. I suspect the biggest risk will be in setting a cut-off date that will protect stale-dated reviews to be uploaded as new. It's your call, of course, but I'd set the limit at six months.

One final thing, and again this is just my opinion, but I wouldn't put the effort into making a feature to make it easy to import reviews. Not that this wouldn't be nice to have, but if it slows down development on other more important stuff then it comes at too high a cost. Also, the feature would cease to have any use after any eligible reviews were converted since once the new user-generated site is up and running I assume that all new reviews will go there.

Again, thanks for keeping us in the loop. I really appreciate it and I'm sure that many others do too.

I've just conducted a survey on this. admittedly, the size of the survey group was pretty small, namely me and my wife. But here are the results:

- me (male): annual porn budget approximately $1,000

- wife (female): annual porn budget definitely $0

Seriously though, I doubt that women make up much of the porn buying customer base. I do recall reading somewhere many years ago that men get turned on by watching porn, but women get turned on by watching their man get turned on by watching porn.

Interesting thread. I hope other weigh in too.

I’ve recently started going back through my photo collection. I’m more of a video collector but I will download photos of my favorite models. I used an ancient trial version of ACDSee (version 2.41). It worked well for viewing photos but it had several features that the stock Microsoft photo viewer doesn’t seem to have. The first is a preview function. With ACDSee I could open a screen that showed the file tree on the left and when I clicked on any file the main part of the screen would open thumbnails of all the photos in that folder. The other feature was an ability to bulk-rename photos.

The problem I have is that this old version of ACDSee isn’t entirely Windows 8 compatible. It will work as a picture viewer but none of the other features work. When I try to use them, the software crashes. That means that if I’m looking for a specific photo set I have to do it in the file manager screen and open each folder to see thumbnails, close that and then open another, etc.

Can anyone recommend a good software package for viewing photos? There may even be something better shipped with Windows that I haven’t discovered yet. Any advice will be appreciated.

I should add that my preference would be for freeware, but I am willing to buy if needed. The problem with most of what I’ve seen available is that they are more about editing and are far more feature heavy than I really need. All I want to do is fine, organize and view.

Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing, but I've still been adding them. I'm really hoping that the staff will allow newer PU reviews (maybe those posted in the past six months? year?) to be rewritten for the new site. It would be a win/win for the member and the new site. I've got my fingers crossed...

This was addressed in the original thread. Here's the link to it: https://www.pornusers.com/forum/forum_thr...d.html?threadid=3676

I think I'm correct in saying that due to the new format the older reviews will not be automatically added to the new site but that the old reviews will still be accessible through a link. I can understand that reformatting all the old reviews would be a daunting task so it is a good compromise to link to them. The user reviews provide a lot of valuable information.

One option that I haven't heard mentioned is whether users will be allowed to reformat some of their own older reviews and post them on the new site. I could see that this could work for newer reviews where the information is likely to be current and accurate, and it would allow the new site to get an early boost.

Welcome to Pornusers. This is a great site and while it is a bit quiet here these days we're all waiting patiently for the new site when things will pick up and really start to grow again. If you read other porn forums you'll likely find this one is a lot more civilized.

Interesting looking site. I tried signing up to check it out but it wants a passcode that I don't have. That's for the signup even.
