I'd say any kind of writers should get the most recognition. It's funny how actors and directors get the most when the story is usually even created and forged by someone completely different but yet these people get a small text credit at the beginning and ending of a film. If it was not for these creators, the film would never even be created by a director or actor.
I also want to think that great writers of fiction novels should be the most recognized. Honestly, creating an original novel that uses one's imagination and clearly written in text for others to understand takes a lot of talent. Ever tried describing a dream to someone in a clear way that they understand it? While not all stories comes from dreams but it's still the conscience mind and memory that is needed to create these stories and to correctly brainstorm these ideas to create a story for another to understand and enjoy should be recognized the most by society.
Too bad this is only half true, film stars and directors are the most recognized these days. While they are talented and I enjoy almost all the other options in the poll, in my opinion, writers have the most talent and should be the most recognized.
It was not canceling my account that I had problems with the Tranny Boss network, but them charging my card with other sites after I canceled. The graphics and set up looks exactly the same and I'm still weary in joining the network due to this. If I were you, I'd check your email and card periodically to make sure nothing happens. While it my just be coincidence, I highly doubt it is due to the fact that the network got basically ousted by TBP and may have moved their scheming to another place with a different name and content. The largest worry I have with the network was I got the Tranny Boss link from a email through being an older member of OnlyTGirls and this site is provided in this network. So, somehow, some way that site was/is involved with the Tranny Boss network which ripped me and a lot of people off.
So basically this is good news if the Total Tranny Pass network is not involved but until I can get clear concise information provided that they are not involved with Tranny Boss, I am going to stay away for now.
This was like the second review I ever wrote and my quality of reviews were not as good at the beginning. Unfortunantly, with this site as well, I wrote the review a few weeks after my membership and I could not remember all the facts. However, I do remember the daily download limit and it being the standard 4 GB's and not 3 GB's. While it is a con and I should have mentioned it, I don't think a limit should sway someone completely away from a site. I've been to quite a few TS sites and I can tell you that this site is one of the better places for exclusive hardcore content of North and South American TS models. The sheer quantity and navigation of this site (from what I remember) is worth a visit from anyone completely interested in shemale content. To each it's own though, if a limit would sway you away completely, then that's up to you and I respect that.
Thanks for mentioning the limit, I was planning on returning to this site eventually to write a better updated review in the future since I feel my newer reviews are far more superior in how I do my facts and outlines than my first few.
I think Drooler might be referring to something I've actually heard a few of my buddies talking about. It had something to do with that if a woman ate something more sweet, that when she is in arousal and the juices flow, that the actual sweetness from the sugar would make these juices more sweet to the taste. However, I remember being a bit perplexed how this was possible and how much of a myth it was. One of my friends actually said it worked but c'mon, it's a bunch of men talking about stupid sex stories over a few beers and I've heard a lot of bullshit in my short life already during these discussions. So who knows, I guess it's time for some quality scientific research on the subject! How about us PU's pick the subjects and we can be 'taste testers' :)
Maybe I'm wrong about what Drooler was referring to and it is just what pussy should taste like with a nice list of options :) Anyone else hear about this 'rumor' that my friends were talking about?
EDIT: Actually, now that I think of it, I heard this story goes both ways or maybe it was for males who ate sweeter things and that their cum tasted sweeter. Maybe I'm totally off and it was neither :) Can anyone help me out and let me know that I'm not nuts.
Well I was using that site and the others as an example of some of the better looking and more professionally looking videos I've seen on a site in my recent stays. However, I think that the demo might have been the wrong choice for which video to promote for their site. Besides, the whole preview page for that site is actually horrendous. However, I did not join this site on a whim and it was several other of the more upstanding PU'ers that guided me towards this site and they were the ones who told me about how well these videos were produced. Plus, I suppose we will just have to agree to disagree about the site and it's videos, they blew me away after watching more than 75% of the content on a large screen LCD TV when I compare to the other sites that used 640 X 480 or 720 X 480 in the range of 1,000 to 1,500 kbps which I thought was the debate to begin with. It was just one site as an example, I'm not saying they have the best videos I've ever seen, it was just a site I remembered off hand and had access to recently using a higher format than what was discussed and had way better looking videos than the majority of the sites I've been to that used lower resolutions and bitrates.
As for the argument of comparing any site's video quality when talking about 'HD' to a blu-ray, I find that a bit overwhelming to even think that these can be compared. A standard blu-ray disc is 25 GB's and a movie is 1 hour and 30 mins to 2 hours long. Let's say there are 30 mins of special features. A site's videos range from 15 to 30 mins. So, lets say an average blu-ray is 1 hour and 45 mins with 30 mins of special features. This uses up a standard blu ray at 25 GB and if you average in a site's average scene which is 20 mins, that's about 8.75 scenes for one blu-ray. However, that means that each scene would roughly be at 2.7 to 3.0 GB's if it was in true blu ray quality. Therefore, these scenes from sites are obviously not that high and therefore could never be the same quality or even in the same class as a true blu ray scene because a 20 min scene at the usual 1280 X 720 format is only 300-800 MB. Yes, a standard blu ray is at 1920 X 1080 and if these videos used that res, they would probably jump up in size but no where near 2.7 to 3.0 GB's. So, what I'm trying to say, is that at the encoding that most sites do at 1280 X 720 and 4002 kbps with the quality I've seen, they are extremely nice and the comparison to blu ray just seems outrageous.
Maybe I'm just crazy and my standards are a bit lower or something, I just think that at that format (1280 X 720, 4002 kbps) and with certain sites, they are remarkable for the size I'm downloading at.
Hope this all makes sense and I'm not trying to be a smartass or anything, hope we can talk about some other things soon!
I'm afraid I will get way too bored and this hobby will become nonexistant for me. While I do get a bit worried about my money situation, so far, I've been pretty good at staying within my budget and knowing when and if I can join a site. Sometimes, having to wait a whole month or more to be able to join a site whets my appetite for the content even more. However, if I get disapointed that wait can be a large bummer for sure. But, all-in-all, it has to be my fear of boredom. While I feel I still have a laundry list of sites I want to go to, the list of places new to add to join is becoming less and less each month as I join more sites. Therefore, I'm joining more than I add to join so eventually I think I may be at a limit to what I will join. Hopefully the sites I love the most will keep on providing the content I already love and can keep me there.
Hello,
While I agree that some may not know about the law but I don't think the site should HAVE to mention that Japanese law provides a mosiac for their porn and that this site contains these. They mention that they offer AUTHENTIC Japanese Porn DVD's which is enough information provided to make a firm decision. While maybe it would be nice to add a statement in the FAQ section about the law for people to understand, I don't think knocking a site down an extremely large chunk as you did is warranted. I don't think that the site is misleading potential customers at all, it's not like they added the mosiac themselves for their site. ALL Japanese porn has the mosiac unless it is Japanese porn shot outside of the mainland or is strictly focused for the west but hence becomes banned in Japan. While there are companies that use more professional models for these exports such as Amorz, most of these uncensored videos are Amateurs and do not contain the better camera work and professionalism that the mainline videos provide. While stars such as Maria Ozawa have gone against this and provide uncensored videos, it is quite well known in the japanese porn community that the law provides a mosiac.
I'm not saying that it's completely your fault for not knowing the law, but, personally as well as most other people who join pay porn sites attempt to do a small amount of research before joining a site. Within this research, I'm sure it would be quite clear that authentic Japanese porn provides a mosiac for their content due to law.
As far as the login probs go, yes, that is a problem and I see it worth mentioning in a review or comment for others to know that there was a problem. However, that the fact that support is addressing the problem is more positive than it is negative because some sites are truly automated with responses and provide nothing in terms of true help.
We can agree to disagree about the site and that's what makes Porn Users so great, I just wanted to address that I felt the site's score was not justified through my experiences with it and help others who read this particular review that I have had good personal experiences with it to provide a different outlook and point of view for them.
Good luck with your future reviews and I hope to see you around some more!
I have almost every video from InFocusGirls and I watch them on a 42 inch LCD TV. I can account for them being just as good or even better than the hundreds of DVD's I've rented. That's strange that you find the lighting for that site to be bad because I've found the locations to be extremely well lit and the outside scenes are always on a sunny day. In fact, I'd go out on a limb and say these videos are some of the most professional scenes I've seen on a site so far. In these videos, I've even seen the little light blonde hairs that women can get which I've only seen in well lit areas and real life. While I'll agree the earlier videos are not as good but I'd say less than 1/4 are from the site's beginning and used those formats. While this is my opinion, I don't know what else to say besides the fact that if you found videos better than this, I'd like to know which sites so I can check them out.
I've had great success at logging in to this site. I agree with PinkPanther 100% about blaming the law on the site, this is something you cannot blame the site for due to it being Japanese law. They do have almost all the harder to find DVD's that I want/wanted and almost all the mainstream ones and they update constantly, I don't agree that this site deserves a 60 at all.
Yep, I am a current/previous member at shemale.asia, infocus girls, only cuties, ladyboy player, long mint, areeyas world, only tgirls, shemale club, and I can name abut 5-6 more of my favorites that use that format and they are the best I've ever seen. So yes, I have seen plenty that use that and are crystal clear.
You could be right but I have recently joined about 5-6 sites whose videos were at 640 or 720 and at ~1000 kbps. What can I say for these videos? They were unbearable to watch and borderline disgusting that I even paid my hard earned money to look at. Honestly, the best endcoding I've seen on sites is at 1280 res and 4002 kbps. These are all crystal clear, not extremely huge, and I feel like I'm getting what I paid for. I have come across some sites that encode at about what you said and been average, but to be honest, they are far in between most sites. So, I'm not saying your wrong or that videos at that rate can't be good, but for some of the prices I spend for sites and it being mid 2009, these videos are absolutely horrid for the most part on a lot of sites still.
I agree with the fact that this review was better posted as a comment to tell us that the site is no longer updating. While this is great info for a review, I do believe tech stuff can easily be thrown in there for 1 line in the pros or cons or in bottom line and the user could describe what is in the scenes more in full to create a more in depth review. My philosophy is bigger is better, I do find users who do short and sweet reviews as trustworthy as others.
But let's get for real, if you are actually planning on joining the site and giving YOUR money to them, everyone would want more details than this. This review just leaves anyone as a potential consumer to ask more questions which RagingBuddhist did and rightfully so in my honest opinion. If you are just looking to read this as never being interested in the first place, it adds a fact that you now know the site is no updating which is a great comment.
Honestly, I always knew I'd rejoin this site. While me and the webmaster seanchai have seemed to 'bump heads' in the past, it was by no means that I did not like the site or it's content. Honestly, to be doing a shemale site strictly with true Japanese TS models is very proactive and I commend Grooby for taking on this task. Getting Japanese TS DVD's to the USA are about $30-$50 USD a movie which contain 3-5 scenes and you can pay Grooby about the same to get plenty of the same models that appear on these DVD's. While I still may not like the updating style that this company does, I still understand why they do it and seanchai did make a comment how once a site is up for so long, the masterbation to cumshot videos become quite high in content. I have only joined this one site from grooby (I'm waiting for some extra money to purchase their grooby ticket thing making sites about $19.95 a pop) and when they were fairly new, so the content was so low by the time I got all of it in about 2 weeks, I was waiting for updates and waiting my last two week stay for a nonexistant cumshot video pissed me off at the time.
Thanks for the heads up and let me know your thoughts about the site and it's updates. I remember reading the blog a few months ago and they talked about bringing Marin (YUMMY) back for an update with one of her friends who looked pretty good herself.
I put video res and quality. I have just noticed that most sites still see that 640 and 720 res are 'high' quality these days and bitrates under 2000 kbps. Honestly, I'll sacrifice some HD space to have an extra 200-300 mbs a file to get better videos. Honestly, even if a site wants to keep their files at 640 or 720 res, the videos should at least be in the 4000 kbps range if not higher. Plus, I have found way too many sites lately that are still even lower than 640 or 720 and stay in the lower 1000's in kbps and honestly, they are borderline unwatchable. I love both videos and photos equally, but I find myself living with photos in the upper 800's and lower 1000's in res rather than these low res and quality videos a lot of sites are still updating with.
When creating these polls, you only get 6 slots for answers to your poll. So, when making polls, you are sometimes limited to which answers you can put in. Usually when I make these, I want to put an 'other' option in or even more responses. However, for this particular poll, I also wanted to address these other options as well, so I did not want to leave any of these responses out :(
Yeah at first I was ready to rip in to these people after seeing that screenshot. You are right, the concept is actually quite good from a business stand point but it really messed me up because all these review sites were saying they had all these videos and sets and I was at about 6-8 videos each model and 10-15 sets which was like half of what all these extremely old reviews were saying them had. Thinking to myself like, ummm, what's going on. Good thing they responded with that news and the changes are said to actually be during my term as a member so I will be able to get all the content. However, it's all about them actually deliver these promises in that time span now and waiting.
The names of these films usually give me a laugh ('Lord of the G-Strings', 'Black Cock Down', etc.) but after that, I won't watch the actual film. While I'm basically a lover of gonzo to begin with, a porn film with a stupid plot is the last thing I want to see anyways. I don't mind some acting in a 'reality' type scene but spoofing is plain lame. While the scenes might be alright, I am not feeling these movies too much. Hence, my answer is as so.
How this site works which sums up my other comments which equals great news
I got an update from support as to how this site works. Support told me that upon joining, each member starts off the same and gets more content as they stay members, so the update schedule rotates and after a few months most of the content should be available. However, they told me that there were too many complaints about how this system is and they are changing.
As for the promises, they are very good. In two weeks from this comment, support explained that the archives will be open to all. Therefore, all the content will be available to download in about two weeks. Plus, they promised 8 new models will begin updating the site, along with the others, equaling the chance of tons of new content in the next few months. So, now with everything explained, the place seems legit and will be 10x better in the next few weeks. They still are keeping the downloading zip files for photos only after 1 months stay which is a drag but this news is still a huge improvement.
Wow moments after posting this and looking even more in to things, I noticed that an image screenshot from a review at PornInspector shows the members area and the UPCOMING UPDATE is the same exact UPCOMING UPDATE they have scheduled this week and it says this review was written in 2007! Great, so they are obviously shady then.
Update schedule content not even in my members area
I am starting to get suspiscions about this site and being a bit on the shady side of things. After being surprised by what seems to be a lack of a lot of content in the video areas after reading not only TBP reviews and other places (which have all varied in their video content amount but all being higher than the 50's that it is in currently), I checked out the preview page which actually has an update schedule. In this update schedule (which is not present in the members area), there are photo shoots in this month's schedule that are not present in the members area. I already emailed support about the videos section and will proceed to ask about these missing shoots in the next email if they return my first request. However, in the mean time I suppose I need to point this out, either this place is showcasing and advertising fake content which is nowhere to be found or they are having site problems but I highly doubt the second option is the case.
So all-in-all, it's a waiting game to see from support about these things or if any current/ex-members have ran in to anything like this with this place and can let me know.
Just wanted to let people know that TBP facts sheet lists there being over 100 videos when in fact there are only 52 at the moment. These are for the models and with the extras there are 5 nonexclusive video clips that can be downloaded. However, there are 75 less than one minute to a bit under 2 min clips of random ladyboys shot candid on the streets available via streaming, but you cannot download them. Anyways, they are almost pointless anyways.
So all in all, only 52 videos are actually and currently available to download which is the 'true' ladyboy gold content.
As always, thanks for the heads up and information exotic4me. I am waiting for a subscription to end and joining twisty's for the first time after your comments and others information they provided. However, I have a feeling that site is going to overwhelm me (this is a good thing though).
Personally that's high for me but it's always great to get updated news from current members as to changes that are made. I would probably end up d/l 2-3 whenever I log in but I am just rejoining to get some more soft on demand content. Anyways, thanks for the news jd1961.
