hey man, I think the update schedule of this network is actually pretty decent, they typically did 4 sets a day across the network while I was a member. Nubiles does something like 3 a day, and Teen Megaworld was pretty erratic the last time I was there, I don't recall there being more the 5 or so updates a week.
granted many of the updates here are for beata or sasha blonde, and they have a bunch of dead sites, but I just thought I'd point this out.
also it seems as though lately they were putting content exclusively on either 18only or younglegal, probably in an attempt to get people to join the network rather than joining a single site. I still can't stand this aspect of the site, especially because if you join a single site they constantly seem to be trying to get you to upgrade to the network - at a higher price than if you had joined the network outright from the beginning.
I also think Deisel is targetting the same audience as Nubiles, although Nubiles does it better.
as I said in a review I did, I think think the policeman.net site is pretty amusing, although it is also dead.
I actually did keep a couple of sets from this place the last time I was a member, but I totally agree this site is sort of a worthless throw-in with all the other Deisel stuff.
Yeah the guy does seem a bit overly sensitive. Oh well, what can you say? Guess I should have just said "not my style" and left it at that, I just didn't think the site was all that...
I forgot to mention, the reason I thought Twistys hard was not frequently updated is because of the dates you have listed:
Nov 30 2008 - Mar 18 2009 - 7 updates.
That's like 1 a month, not 14. I didn't realize you didn't start doing it until a few weeks ago, although it does seem more frequent for the past couple of weeks. Since I have only been a member for a few weeks that date range certainly makes it seem as though updates are uncommon...
Oh and exotics4me, I adjusted my 1byday score down, after giving your comments some thought.
I had a full month membership, and I did check out all the bonus sites (except bustyones - not my style). whengirlsplay was okay, but i'm not a fan of anette dawn - although if you were i'm sure you'd love that site - and naughtystaff wasnt that interesting so I didn't consider any of them much of a pro.
Thanks for the response Shap, I think I addressed most of the issues you brought up in my response to exotics4me.
I looked back at your site and I agree there is more hardcore than I made it sound like there was, however not much that I was interested in.
I wouldn't necessarily try to change the site to meet everyone's needs. The one thing I would change is to get rid of the two "bonus sites" that aren't bonus at all.
I believe if you look at my other reviews you will see that I don't typically rank sites all that high, I am just trying to abide by PU's review guidelines.
Perhaps I am being a bit unfair. Certainly Twistys has a much better price than 1byday. I would have posted a review of 1byday, but I was a member like 6 months ago and didn't think it would be appropriate to post a full review of a site I haven't been a member of in so long. Perhaps 90% of the models on 1byday are on Twistys, but in my opinion the style of the shoots and the quality of photographs on 1byday is significantly better. Or perhaps it is the 10% that are different that made the difference. Maybe if I had joined 1byday after Twistys, I would have felt more lukewarm about 1byday, but there are several sets I have downloaded from 1byday that are amongst my favorites, and I would not put any set I downloaded from twistys in that group.
Perhaps I should not have used the term "fake breasted", large breasted may have been a better term - as the webmaster called me out on this, which is not typically my preference.
There were also general things that irritated me and might have colored my review somewhat:
-I prefer photos, and I found many of the photos to be mediocre quality in light that was way too soft for my tastes
-calling a site (even if it is only 2 of 7 or whatever) a bonus site when it is the exact same content as the main site is misleading and stupid
-while having zips to download is nice, it is much nicer when some kind of naming convention is used, a minor qualm to be sure, but something 1byday or nubiles handled much better
As far as updates go, I rarely join a site for more than a month, so that truly wasn't a concern of mine - I don't believe I have seriously considered that in any reviews I have written.
I don't think Twistys is a "bad" site, perhaps my cons made it sound worse than it is, I consider it average - which is why I rated it as such.
People may like this site, and I could see why, but it isn't a site for me. This is just my opinion, and the only reason I mentioned you in my review was because I have always tended to agree with your assessment of sites (at least the ones you've reviewed that i've joined).
If you go to videobox.com/browse/scenes, not sure why they are hiding this with their new front page (I kept getting taken to join as well), it used to be available straight away.
Thanks for the info exotics! I had been wondering about that channel, for some reason I can never seem to figure out how much of stuff is where on the new VB tour. I didn't realize they pro-rated the channels either, that is really good to know.
Nice to hear it sounds like it has gotten better, the last time I was a member there, over a year ago I think, I thought the search function on VB3 was pretty terrible.
It certainly would have been good for him to mention his complaint was about VB3 in the comment, as this is certainly the basis of his complaint, but I have seen many people post comments that are quite negative, as well as reviews that are quite negative. Isn't this the point in having a review site, so that people can posts their opinions of sites. I would be intersted to see mike's scores of VB, I like to read negative reviews and comments, even of sites I enjoy, as it helps me see other folks perspective.
I understand what you are saying, I just don't think this type of reaction due to frustration is all that uncommon. I agree it gives a negative spin on his feelings of VB, but he is free to give whatever spin he pleases. I guess I just don't see a problem with it. I agree VB is one of the highest rated sites, but personally I think it is also highly overrated. Bitching in the forum may be prudent, but these are also threads that quickly disappear which some users may never notice or know to look for.
I see plenty of negative opinions in comment titles over the past few months, why can't he post the same? In what way is his sentiment (VB3 blows, which I strongly agree with) not valuable information for casual users looking for site reviews? What if the current workaround of using VB2 goes away? Sorry for carrying on this debate, it just seemed like you sort of jumped on the guy.
I don't really see a problem with posting a comment like this before waiting a few days, people do this here all the time with respect to login issues, download speeds, and other technical issues. Clearly he has had some issues with the site over time, and he should feel free to voice his opinion, may be useful to fellow PUs.
Not to state the obvious, but why not just use VB2 then? I haven't been a member here in a while, but I never used VB3 because I can't stand it, as long as 2 is availble (and apparently more functional) why not just use it?
I agree with most of your points, although I obviously am not as fond of this site as you are. I also agree with exotics, that I find videosz to be a bit better, the crap-to-decent ratio seemed a bit better there to me. The site you were thinking of was perhaps American Vice (I liked them much better than either of the 'video' sites?
I object to the 'could be better' statement messmer, that implies that it is actually half decent to being with ;). Its fucking terrible, it only seems to work if you are searching for recent and popular stuff. I don't think that I have seen one that is worse anywhere (unless things have changed since last I was a member a few months ago).
Monahan is right, their naming scheme is also bad, my guess is that they have plenty of members and don't really care.
Ha! That instant stream thing pisses me off to no end as well, so many times forgetting to mute my speaders...
Thanks for the info on Kink, sounds like a reasonable way to get a sampling without having to join all the sites. How to the video specs compare with what you would get directly from Kink?
I never even noticed the RK channel, and I was just a member here. Is it new? I checked on their site and it isn't even listed under the channels. Curious. Hope you update your review and let us know how it is if you join it.
I agree, I have done the same thing, but it sort of annoying to go between IAFD or something and VB when they could just add a decent search function. They also seem to often have some comically incorrect model photos. I get the feeling the just don't care, their membership is probably very high, and site functionality and design improvements probably wouldn't make it any higher.
Nice review Tobey666, although personally I think their new search engine is awful. Quite glitchy, so often it has no results for stars I know they have.
