I completely agree. When I first discovered this I asked for a refund. When that was denied, I paid the extra $10. That is the last time I've signed on to this site. I no longer visit Twistys for the same reason.

The parent company, MindGeek, seems to be taking this approach to all the sites they operate including Playboy Plus. I have stopped visiting both sites.

Thank you for the information. I've been visiting Twisty's for more than 10 years. I think I will stop.

I just went to the Twisty's payment page. There was no indication of the VIP requirement, so I opened a chat with customer service. They admitted that you must pay an extra $9.99 for downloads. Since I am a prior member, they offered me a reduced rate for a 1-year no-download membership. I explained that I have a problem joining a site where I am only informed that I must pay extra after I've joined. I told them I'd probably rejoin for a month once a year, but only after they explained the VIP issue on the join page. After some more discussion, customer service offered to let me join for 1 month with VIP for $17.99. I said "Thank you, but I will only rejoin when you are honest to your customers about the VIP issue." I plan to check every 2-3 months.

I just want to say that I still visit this site 2-3 times a year and the quality was excellent many years ago and continues to improve. They do a fair amount of location shooting in interesting and picturesque places. Videos have improved a lot and they now take requests. The May 2016 review is accurate, but I'd give this site a higher score.

It's been another year and I rejoined for the month. It seems they are done transferring material from the Cyber Club site. In the 11 months I was away, they have added about 500 new sets. Most of these sets include both photos and a video. All playmates from the first issue are now present including the actual gatefold image.
My only complaint is that they do not do a good job of identifying the model in a photo graph when a set includes photos of more than one model. About 1/3 of the time the set description had enough information to figure out the mode's name. The rest of the time it takes real work it identify each model.
I'm a regular. I like the models and I like the photography.

After a lot of blundering around, I made a discovery. If you enter the following string into your browser, you should get to the desired page without have to move two pages at a time.
http://members.twistys.com/releases/all/all/bydate/alltime/page/999/
The above will go to page 999 of the updates window for all sites ordered by date. I imagine you could change various parameters, but I haven't tried. By the way, the last page is 1286 more or less.

Sorry, I can get long winded at times
3. The models are getting better in both looks and performance quality.
4. The software now has better support of multiple displays and the ability to show more than one card (in reduced size mode) on the same screen at the same time.
On the negative side, their user documentation leaves a lot to be desired. There are many hidden features not covered by the help/FAQ material. On the other had, the user forum is a great source of advice and assistance
RECOMMENDATIONS
If you want to try it, the software is free. There is a demo tab where you can see short previews of a limited number of cards including some of the 3K cards. If you like the demos, I suggest that you get or buy one or two 3K cards and see if you like them. If you like what you see, buy 50 credits and budget your purchases. Buying in blocks of 50 will save money, but be careful you don't overspend.
WARNING
There have been currency conversion problems for people outside the US and EU. Check the billing site to see what you would be paying for credits in your own currency. I understand that those in Russia have seen enormous price increases.

My connection is a 25 Mb/sec fiber optic line. I test it regularly and generally see results in the 23-25 Mb/sec range. I'm using Safari 7.0.5 on a new Mac Pro running OSX 10.9.4. Downloads from other sites generally show speeds in the 2-5 MB/sec range which I find acceptable. On FemJoy the first GB of downloads in a day is in that range and then the rate starts dropping. This is the only site where I've seen this behavior. Some other sites will lock you out for a while if you exceed some limit. This site seems to gradually throttle down the speed. I've seen it go as low as 20 KB/sec. I'm in touch with their tech support, but no resolution yet.
I haven't tried to use FireFox till now. I just downloaded two photo zips with FireFox. FirFox doesn't report the download speed. Activity Monitor seems to be reporting speeds similar to Safari.

The slow response has gone away. The site seems to be working fine now.

I just got this offer and rejoined. The site is really slow. Right now I'm trying to see the list of photo sets for May 2012 (month chosen at random) and after more than 5 minutes nothing has appeared.
I have a 20 MBS fiber optic internet connection and a new Mac Pro with the latest OSX and Safari. I'm frustrated. I'll post again if I get this resolved.

I just ended a one-month membership with Playboy Plus. I was able to do this via their on-line chat service. An email confirmation was automatically sent to me.

Well its been another 10 months. There is more content, but it seems they are still moving old material. Some of the multi-model sets now identify the models image by image, but many do not. If you like Playboy as I do, this is a worthwhile site but I wish they'd get it finished and fully organized. Nearly all the videos are now 1080p.

At present, they want to charge extra for Playboy Girls after you have joined Playboy Plus. The one-time fee is quite high for a "dead" site.

Over the past 6 months, I've earned a variety of free credits and other upgrades. All have been delivered on time and as promised. I agree that tech support leaves a lot to be desired.

One day later -- It seems I was wrong about the old content. They seem to be still moving older material from CyberClub to Playboy Plus. It the past two days I've noticed about 20 sets added with much older posting dates. I've also been checking some of the videos. In some cases, about a dozen so far, I've noticed that they've posted a 1990's video that was originally a 320 X 240 QuickTime movie as a 1920 X 1080 MP4. However, the new version seems to be the same as the old with no better resolution, but a much larger file. I can understand their wanting to post the old sets, some of them are great, but the higher resolution just wastes disk space and bandwidth.

It's been about a year and I rejoined Playboy Plus. They've finished moving all the material from the CyberClub and there is a lot to see. I still have one major complaint. About 25% of their photo sets consist of solo shots of more than one model. About 25% of these identify the models in each image, but the rest leave you to guess who is who. In the CyberClub nearly all the photos were identified by model. Since most of the unidentified images came from the CyberClub, I guess they just don't care to expend the effort.

This is to update my previous comment. I was not locked out at 177 downloads. It seems they have occasional server interruptions that I thought was a lock-out. I've found that when I get a "Server Not Found" message, if I try again in a few minutes I'll get through. However, there is a 300 zip per day limit as stated in their terms of service and that is enforced.

The problem is still there. I joined yesterday. They say there is a daily limit of 300 zips or 20GB. I downloaded 177 zips (7GB) and found myself locked out. On the plus side many of the models are outstanding.

There is a lot of content on the site. For the past two years nearly all the videos have been 1280 X 720. There are about 100 sets of that size. Most of these video sets have 2 or 3 parts. (See to full site review here.) From 2007 thru 2010 most of the sets were 640 X 480. Earlier sets are even smaller.
Overall, I suggest that you join the site for one month and judge for yourself. I think you'll find enough to make at least one month's membership worthwhile. The content if varied. I found some of the sets very attractive and others were, for me, of no interest at all.

I can understand your concern. I am a new member and I don't know how the rating scheme works in practice. However, the system notes indicated that the 90-99 range was for an excellent site. I've visited a number of sites whose rating here was in the mid-90's and I feel that this site is better. It's my opinion and you certainly don't have to trust it. I did post what I think are the most relevant data both plus and minus. That was the most information I was willing to take the time to assemble. If the review was inadequate, I hope the owners of this site will pull it. On the other hand, I think it does describe the site fairly well.
