I've joined some special sites for 3 months or longer. Met-art was the first one I joined for a year's membership, but Met-art is special, probably the best softcore teen site, with massive updates, fine photography, massive amounts of gorgeous teen models, easy to use site design, etc.
By the way, have you seen Candice Luca. aka Candice Love, Kaylee, Lennox A?
She's only been around starting this year, but she's got photosets over a large number of websites. Some of her photosets are really good. And her videos are definitely worth watching, as well.
I'm still a member of the Diesel network with access to all their sites (excluding Wow Girls).
Normally, I'm more into pix than vids.
But some sites and networks emphasize vids over pix. And that's my take on Diesel.
The pix have improved quite a bit in the last few years at Diesel. But the vids are the main reason to join this network.
The vids and the incredibly cute teens they feature.
I agree the photosets could be improved. Especially where they waste a lot of time on pussy closeups. Maybe that's due to popular demand, or what they think is popular demand.
But like I say, I join Diesel for the vids. For pix, there are much better sites. Except there are a number of photosets of models that are worth viewing, and keeping, as well. Because the models are gorgeous.
I lurked the site for over a year before I actually joined. Not sure why I didn't join immediately, but I've joined so many different sites, and then hardly ever visited any of them. But PU was different. Like other PU members have said, the PU community is basically welcoming, friendly, helpful, the site has great information on porn sites along with the discounts, and the staff is friendly and helpful if you have any questions or problems.
So that's why I finally joined and stuck around.
But as RagingBuddhist points out, with 8,000 registered users, less than 10% are actively involved (that's different from being an active member: I believe PU counts all members who joined as active, unless they have deactivated their account or been delisted for some reason).
But as the poll question is stated, "How many new PU members stay for over one year?", I would guess the answer is less than 80%. Because once they have signed up, they are considered active, until they de-activate their account, or are delisted by PU staff. And most of the members don't bother to de-activate their account, even when they no longer contribute.
But it would be interesting if the staff would give some figures on how many members do de-activate their account.
But I don't know if they would do that, or if they considered that proprietary or confidential information.
Most of the other sites in this network are on the same poor level:
archive sites (stopped updating years ago), small content, videos you would not want to watch because the definition is so low (I mean really grainy, blurry pictures). Primitive navigation. No search.
There is one site in the network that is worth joining:
exclusiveteenporn
But compared to other pay sites that are available, you are much better off spending your money elsewhere: You will find better quality content, a larger amount of content, sites that are easier to use because of site design.
It makes you realize, if you didn't before, there are good sites out there. But this network is not one of them. What I mean is, it makes you really appreciate sites like Teen Mega World, Nubiles, or the specialty sites like X-Art, Diesel network, etc. Where you can find good to great quality, large amounts of content, and sites that are so easy to use, you forget that site design is so important.
The best thing about this site (pearl teens), is that I downloaded the entire contents in less than a day, and checked every video and photoset, so that my review is based on real-time experience.
At most sites I do not check every video and photoset, because there is too much content. But this is a tiny site.
The truth is, there are plenty of good and bad sites willing to take our money.
I don't mind an archive site (no longer updating), as long as there is good content available and I know beforehand that the site is no longer updating.
But like most things, there are plenty of porn sites that are a complete waste of time and money.
I was a member of a Japanese porn site that had a download limit. I didn't exceed the limit, but I was blocked anyway, because their download limit counter didn't count correctly. That happened to me a few times, and I got so frustrated, I barely used my 1 month membership at the site. Emotions triumphing over practicality.
So that's why I am hesitant about joining this network, even though some of the videos might be appealing.
