When I joined PU many years ago, it was to post a billing complaint. It was never resolved, I am sad to say. I did not have enough experience as to how to handle a problem. Sometimes the internet can be like the Wild West, but in truth you are not really all alone. If you are thinking about joining a reputable website, it is not as dangerous as you might fear. Go for it and let us know what your experience was like. Pick one that is highly rated on PU and you probably be glad that you took the plunge. Thanks MikeC for pledging any help you can provide.

For many people, using a credit card online is a scary experience. Buying porn on line is even more uncertain. In actuality, it does not have to be. Two trustworthy billing processors are CCBill and Epoch. To my knowledge neither has ever had a data breach or exposed the identity of anyone signing up for a porn site. Epoch is very approachable regarding billing questions and/or problems. CCBill takes the attitude that they are just a processor and if there are problems take them up with the web site. Other than those two there are many smaller companies that also process billing. Mostly they do a decent job, but beware. If anyone starts to get a lot of spam after joining a site, it is generally the biller that sells your email address to spammers. I never sign up for a website that sent me spam, unless it is a site that I was a member of in the past and now has a deal for rejoining. Also you should know that often, but not always, using a small billing company is a sign that CCBill and/or Epoch refuses to deal with that website. Why would a biller refuse someone’s business? In a word it is chargebacks. If you have a problem with a website, take it up with them before you ask your bank to reverse the charge. First, that is just good business ethics and second your email address will end up on a list of customers who are problems. Beware of sites that threaten you with reporting you if you do a charge back though. That generally is a sign that this is a common occurrence for them. A red flag for sure is a website that has a $1 trial that renews at a higher 30 day price than if you signed up without a trial and then proceeds to use a small processor. What often happens is that you seem to never end the trial without incurring the 30 day price. Very convenient for them but bad for you. Another possible red flag is using their own proprietary biller. Generally that is a sign that reputable billers do not want their business. This is by no means a firm rule as many totally reputable websites, such as Kink, use their own biller. They have an incentive as they do not have to pay a fee to an outside company. If you have any doubts as to whether a website is ethically challenged, check their reviews and comments on PU. If you ever feel that you are being taken advantage of or otherwise need a problem resolved, post on PU to let others know. In the past PU/TBP has refused to do business with less than ethical websites, especially if they have shady billing practices. I welcome corrections and additions to this post. | |

Only a few years ago HD was seen as an extra, just as 4K is seen now. That leaves a lot of older sites with less than HD content. Would you consider joining a site that only had quality less than HD? I know I would not. | |

This is not an area where I can add much to this discussion. But I like the idea of a thread that is more or less a guide to a particular niche of porn. We need more informative threads that should help in attracting more PU members and more participation. Just my two cents or ten cents with inflation, to quote lk2fireone.

On a completely irrelevant side note, I have seen a handful of videos of Asian women with black men and find them very hot. To me this is as much interracial as is using white women with black men. | |

Posting a link that does not work is not helping to sell your site, sorry. According to the review on TBP, the site does not have HD videos and the photos are of low quality. Further, it is no longer updating. At $29.95, I will pass. | |

[QUOTE=Pyrenees] Well I love beautiful black women in porn. The problem is NO one produces them well at all. Not a single site. The two that do the best job IMO are Exotic 4k and Mike in Brazil (I know your going to say Brazilian women are not black, but they are dark and lovely). Regarding Exotic4K, did you have any trouble with downloading the 4K videos there? | |

Metart is a great site and I can see someone giving it a correspondingly great score. It is the best in its class, even better than Femjoy, also a great site. Metart is huge and keeps growing. The quality of its models and photography is consistently fantastic. All of this is worth extra points, just not 100. | |

This is an old forum topic that I feel that every reviewer should read. Maybe, just maybe if potential new PUers knew more about writing good reviews we might see more and better ones. We have had a lot of turnover since this was a new topic. Anyone care to add or comment? | |

There have been several times that webmasters/mistresses have urged their members to write biased reviews to help promote their websites. What you see are several reviews over a short span with reviews of 100, or some may be at 99. They are generally very short and provide little insight in to why the site deserves the rating. Let me summarize and give an example. Pros-best site on the internet. None comes close. Cons- none or that they wish the sight had more content. Bottom line-the site is highly recommended. These reviews are nothing better than blatant site promotion. In other words they are spam masquerading as reviews. I hope that we don't get incidents like these ever again. They are opinions, so it is hard to say they are not entitled to them. I hope you Pyrenees see why many at PU see high scores very skeptically, especially if the reviewer has no record of other, more balanced reviews. I hope Amanda is aware that such attacks on the integrity of PU have happened, and may very well happen again. | |

Over the years PU has had a lot of reviews that had a rating of 100%. They are usually by newbies and are far too subjective, as Rearadmiral has pointed out. Some valid criticism is either not mentioned or is not taken into account. The number of videos as compared to the price is a good example of this, and so is the fact that a site may not be too creative or story driven. By definition, I would never think of a gonzo type of site as perfect. Standalone sites are also not as good a deal as those that offer more than one site, let alone a network. Some feel that having name pornstars is a plus, others that it is a negative. Ages count, as many prefer a mix of ages, older models or younger ones. Yes it is a matter of taste. Yes 100% is hard to justify. The best reviews are your opinion, but also are meant as objective advice for those whose taste differs. | |

Kink has a deal of $5 off on additional sites if you are presently a member of one of their sites. Maybe we could get that as a permanent discount? The ATK sites would also be great if discounted. | |

I share your outrage. However, stronger laws don't stop sociopaths or psychopaths. They don't care about others and feel that rules don't apply to them. The moral evolution of mankind is slow, but it has happened. We no longer do much of what was commonplace in the past, such as slavery. Christians would no longer have the Crusades or the Inquisition. Even on the topic of the exploitation of children there has been an evolution. In the 19th century child labor was an accepted practice and children were seen as nothing different from being short adults. At least there is public outrage over child abuse today. We are not perfect and never will be, but some people will always be outliers. | |

The Bible can be used to justify many things as it represents a culture of the past. Generally Bible quotations motivate only those who believe, so quoting it is the proverbial preaching to the choir. Non religious people have values too. Moral values are intuitive and pretty much shared in all thinking cultures. Note that I said thinking. | |

A few days ago I heard a female comedian do the following routine on the radio. I don't know her name or can do justice to how she told it. I will try my best so here goes. "The other day my adopted eight year old daughter asked me some tough questions. She knew she was adopted because I could not have a child of my own. Mommy how do women have babies? So I explained in a very basic way what people have to do. Mommy do animals do the same thing? Yes they do. But I don't get it. With four legs how can that work? So we went on YOUTUBE and searched for "cats mating" Oh is that it. I want to see dogs now. Ok so I looked up "dogs mating". Mommy do people sometimes just start doing that right out on the street? OH no, we would NEVER do that. Well how about at a party. NO, NO NEVER. Well can we look up and see how humans do it? Put in "humans mating". NO, NO, NO, NEVER would we have videos of that. I had no idea what I started here." Maybe in ten years that little girl will get her first review approved. | |

My first interest was in Playboy. One of my fellow high school students brought an issue to school in 1964 and it got me interested. A few years later I moved on to Penthouse as it was more explicit. For the next ten years or so that was it. Eventually we had the golden age of porn in the 1970's and I saw both Deepthroat and The Devil in Miss Jones in the movie theater. I loved them both, but home videos were not possible without VHS players in the early 1980's. | |

I definitely agree that lying about the job as well as underpaying her is unethical business behavior. Let me pose two possible hypothetical conversations. Number One. Her agent: I got you a job. The pay is $500 for a blow job scene. Porn model: Oh, great, when do I do it? Number Two. Her agent: I got you a job. The pay is $500 for a blow job scene. Porn model: What website is it for? Agent: Brutal Castings. Porn model: I never heard of that one. "Brutal", huh? That sounds like it is not my style. Why only $500? I did not start in porn last week. I have done x many scenes so far, I have x many followers on my twitter account and want more. I have never worked for that little. Agent: I tried, that is all they will pay. Porn model: Can I see a video they already have shot for Brutal Castings? I want to know what to expect. Then they either a) show her a scene and she realizes it is not for her or b) they refuse to let her see one and she therefore realizes they are not people she wants to deal with. Which one more closely resembles what happened? | |

I joined Brutal Castings and have seen Ava Taylor's scene that she complained about. She does not seem to be enjoying it I must admit. However by porn standards it is not all that extreme and not even remotely so compared with Facial Abuse/ Facial Fucking. If she is saying that she was surprised at the scene being rough and not heartcore, what did she expect from a site that is called Brutal Castings? | |

When I started this thread I honestly did not know what the responses would be. So far this has been very interesting. It is very true that Canadians know quite a bit about the United States, but the reverse is not even remotely true. I must point out that I am somewhat of a news junkie. Despite that, I was surprised during a recent trip to Canada that the hot topic there was their current election campaign for Prime Minister. I not only did not know the name of the current PM, I did not even know there was a current campaign. How many Americans know that Stephen Harper has been PM for the last 10 years, let alone his party affiliation? I suspect that the average American can't name 10 Canadians in mainstream entertainment, let alone any in porn. Edited on Aug 14, 2015, 01:09pm | |

I noticed that the documentary gave the models many opportunities to talk about themselves, their expectations and experiences. They often showed how naive, unrealistic and immature they were. I can't expect much maturity from an 18 to 20 year old and I did not see much here. In the beginning of the documentary it was mentioned that most porn models become known at home about three months into their career. It says that this ALWAYS happens. Despite this, I hear several times how happy they were that their videos were seen all over the world. So they want to be both anonymous and famous at the same time. One thing they said over and over was that they wanted to be stars and make a career in porn. However most left disappointed after only six months in the industry. Cute goes only so far in porn. Successful pornstars either truly love sex or can act. Porn is fantasy. Another complaint was that their role was to get the guys off. My advice would be to watch a few pornos to see what goes on. This advice should not be a surprise. As an aside, I think most would have preferred a more heartcore site over a traditional hardcore one. Another point was that they complained that the constant sex was wearing them down. I understand their point of view. However, they have one of two choices and neither is the choice of complaining. They could turn down a role if they are physically not up to it or fear it may be too rough. Nobody is pointing a gun at them. The other choice is to realize that the industry is not for them and leave. After complaining that they were getting worn out, the complaint was that as they did more porn, they got fewer and fewer offers. So they were working both too much and too little. The offers that they got later were to do more scenes that were niche, rather than barely legal newby ones. There is a never ending supply of new models, so the competition makes for adding more to your repertoire than plain vanilla sucking then vaginal. My advice is to decide what your limits are and then stick to them. I can see the pressure to do anal for example. That can prolong your career, but other wise you have to seriously think over your career choice. I don't want to come across as judgmental, but that is my takeaway from the documentary. | |

I am glad that you cleared up any confusion regarding Face Fucking. One of the models mentioned that Face Fucking as being intense and then it was not clear that the topic had been changed to Brutal Castings. You mention the usual rate as more like $3000. In the documentary it mentions $1000 as the high end of the going rate, which matches what I have heard from several others on PU. I don't really care, so please don't misunderstand me. What did JM Productions do regarding Tanner Mays? Please tell me more. | |

I know you are asking Rearadmiral, but I have been a member of German Goo Girls twice. I had a billing problem the first time but not the second. Just don't click on anything except to download a video. While I liked the content, I found their style of dark and somewhat grainy videos somewhat offputting. That is their trademark. Suzi Sweet was great, but the video style made the videos look odd and other worldly. Edited on Aug 12, 2015, 01:58pm | |
