Yeah, it gets worse and worse. Everytime I take a look at that site, they chop off more from the beginning of the life of the site so they can just tack it on at the end as "new" content. They don't even have the honesty to show that it's a dead site - the people who run that site are disgustingly dishonest.
Since this is a site that continues to excite me more than many, I have to contest the "don't care" allegation.
a) Their stuff is exclusive and that's worth something
b) The production staff has a unique attitude that comes out in their stuff - an affection for a certain grittiness that cuts against the glamour and makes them different from the cookie-cutter character of Twisty's, for example
c) Yeah, they could edit the sets they post and pull out a bunch where the color went off, but these are usually a small number of pics in large updates of 100 pics or more, so for me it's hard to complain about that
d) When they hit it right on, they do astounding work and have done some of the best sets of Annetta Keys, Monika Vesela, Andi Valentino, Jade Hsu (including wonderful recent sets), and others.
e) Their navigation - it's weird and not particularly user-friendly. Sometimes the photosets are on a separate page from their vids, sometimes (as with Mari Possa, one of my faves) the photosets are connected to the vids.
The price - I wouldn't have stayed if I were stuck with their original membership price, even with everything I said above. Their "please don't leave" price when I was going to has kept me around.
Lack of recent updates - this concerns me. After being as consistent as one could hope for, they haven't updated at all since 12/24. One would think that any professional site would have auto-updating set up before they went on vacation or would post a note on their home page about their update plans.
Other sites are being weird about this too, at present, which I find frustrating and avoidable, given the auto-update and clear communication options they could have gone with.
Considering that such a large % of porn afficianados consider price as a significant factor in whether to join a site, I vote "No".
Price matters. A forum member made a point to me about Babes.TV that he thought $20/month was too high for a site that wasn't part of a network.
Since users are considering price/value in their estimation of a site's overall worth, I think that it would be better if TBP did as well.
Should a site that costs $34.95/month be scored identically as it would if it cost $20/month? I don't think so. The relatively high cost is a "Con" in my book and would definitely lower a score that I gave that site.
This is one of those sites that I found gave me a better deal when I was going to cancel. The price that they offered when I was going to cancel has kept me a happy member since - 6 very good to excellent exclusive updates a week are pretty sweet with a site that has content that is as honed to my tastes as this site is.
A lack of amateurs would be a negative if the site were promoting itself as being an amateur site, but this site promotes itself as having the hottest pro models, which it does indeed have.
The actual language on the home page of the site is: "I savagely sodomize the girls I find! These innocent angels get throat-fucked, ass-drilled and fucked beyond recognition because it's what YOU want, because they DESERVE it and I just need to do it."
While paraphrased that, I don't believe that I mis-characterized it.
Is this real? I hadn't heard about it. I love petite honeys with mosqite bite titties. Courtney Simpson is one of the sexiest porn babes of the last several years, in my opinion - I'm sad that she retired.
There's a tiny Thai dancer at a strip club near me that makes me absolutely ga-ga, incredibly tiny with amazingly shapely legs and an awesome bootie and the prettiest little nips on her flat chest - and the sexiest smile you have ever seen in your entire life.
The "I'm going to fuck these whores to Hell and back" character of Asian Appleseed isn't that appealing to me. Another site I like is ClubThaiChix, which has a mix of Thai and non-Thai material, softcore and hard-core and isn't as painted as TheBlackAlley's material.
Other cons for this site, or group of sites, besides the ones you mentioned - and I've been a member for quite a while of Phil-Flash's site:
1) Vanishing content - whole sections of Phil's site have disappeared - the Tiffany/Kelly stuff most recently and the Jannah Burnham stuff before that
2) Customer Support lacking/surly - the attitude is that they're doing you a favor by existing and members are basically looked down on as being trolls or something - I've repeatedly asked in a respectful way about what happened to the Jannah Burnham content and been shined on repeatedly. Other requests/issues over time have met with similar responses.
3) cam show screens shrunk considerably months ago - you need a fucking magnifying glass to get a lot of enjoyment out of the cam show screens being presented these days - I've given up going to them live - download the archives if I'm interested. But it sucks to see sites go to lower quality cam shows - especially if the site touts cam shows as one of their prime attractions.
Why stay? There's still a lot of hot content. I was about to leave right before they added the other sites as part of the same membership price. That was enough to keep me around a bit longer.
Actually, what you're more likely to get with an amateur guy is the deer-in-the-headlights expression on his face, a hard time getting it up at all with the camera on, the porn babe having to do ALL the work and then him shooting in about 1 1/2 minutes after he manages to finally get his thing to work.
I doubt if many professional sites want to go for that experience very often, so they get the pro guys and make sure they've popped a viagra at the right time - boring, it's true, but less boring than the alternative.
Well, if he broke your Thai fantasy, let me inform you that the people that did Asian4You started a new site earlier this year, TheBlackAlley.com, that does stuff in the same style, though not the boy/girl hardcore that A4Y did, AND they have been steadily adding Asian4You content to the site - they have literally 100's of Asian4You sets in their site now.
Some women do have sexy feet and given the chance, I'd stroke 'em, massage 'em, maybe even lick 'em, so seeing it on vid is no problem for me, though I'm not really a foot fetishist - legs and asses, boobs and sexy eyes are what really get me.
Yeah - that is some amazing BS with that site, isn't it? I like Jannah, and she's a really hot woman, but she's also rather a hustler to have a site where you can't save pics.
Not my taste either - it will be interesting to see who, if anybody will step up to declare "I love this stuff!" - but as someone that was going to adult theaters in the late 70's, I've got to say that while porn has gotten more extreme in some ways, especially the emphasis on "ass", it has also gotten more tame. When I first went to adult theaters, it seemed like 2 requirements for every feature were:
1) a little girl scene - frequently incest-themed and
2) a rape scene - and not a "she really wanted it but played like she didn't" scene either
Perhaps with the legal crackdown in some areas, the extremity in others is the consequence.
I'm voting for mixed myself. When I look at how well run some sites are: ALS Scan, Met Art, Twisty's, SexyBabes.TV, Nubiles, KarupsPC, ATK Galleria, for example, it's kind of amazing that there are so many slipshod sites that do so much less for their members and keep operating.
But there's a lot of sites that seem to rely on suckers - they haven't updated in a whole helluva long time, they don't respond to their customers, they grab your cash for your first sign-up with no intention of having anybody stick around.
And then there's the ones that act like they're giving a lot when they're really not - at least as compared to the truly great sites out there.
Oh, well - I'm glad that there is the ability with sites such as this one, for fans to help other fans make good choices and avoid the ratholes.
I saw a promo at NNBoards when this site first started - since I'd been lusting after his babes on his other sites at the time, I went for a 3-month membership. It's a decent site. They update every few days with pics and vids, but the excitement level over time is not that high for me, so I won't be renewing.
There's some nice POV stuff, including BJ stuff, but there seems to always be something that throws it off from being above the level of good - he's not hard or the angle's not that interesting or...
At the rate that they're updating, and if they get other photographers involved and work on some of the weaknesses of the site, this site could seriously rock over time.
I'm surprised that they don't respond to e-mails because they are such a great site in other ways.
They definitely have their distinctive style, but they have enough variety to keep me consistently interested. While every shoot doesn't have me jumping for joy, I find that I have NO problem finding exciting stuff every time I log in, because the archives are so deep and there is so much posted each day.
I agree with the comments about the boring vids - Met Art could give lessons in how to make high-quality, REALLY boring vids - but the excellent photo-sets and consistent daily multiple updates keeps me a very happy member.
It's funny to me that it is so exciting to some people. My fave site, ALS Scan, is REALLY into pee. Me, I'm like "Eh!" At least the girls look gorgeous with their legs all opened up and their beautiful pussies spread, but I'd much rather see them having their pussies eaten than see them peeing on the hands of another girl - oh, well.
A few weeks ago, Nautica Thorn was doing a web cam show and she had to pee before the show was over, so she asked us guys if we minded if she gave us a pee show. We said "No", so she did. She seemed to find it exciting and naughty. I saw her a week and a half later featuring and she was asking me, "Did you like the end of my cam show?" - meaning the pee sequence. I told her I liked the whole show, which was the truth. But my fave part was watching her fuck her sweet pussy with a toy and then hand the toy to a guest, who had no idea where it had been and proceeded to lick it and titty-fuck herself with it - lol
The reality is that there are many sites - Twisty's, Nubiles, ALS Scan, the Playboy sites, Karups are examples that come to mind = that treat their customers well and are responsive to issues that come up. Then there are others that just want your money and will rip you off or won't respond until you practically hit them in the head with a 2 by 4, and then give you attitude and lies about how they respond to all e-mails immediately and already gave you everything you deserve anyway. I find that, for the most part, with sites like this around it's actually easier to avoid the sleazebags and go with the class acts.
The number of bonus sites and the quality of many of the bonus sites also adds to the value of this one if you stay a member for a protracted period of time.
Sophie's a jewel. There's a dancer at my fave strip club that looks incredibly like her, except that her boobs are not as big - but the awesome legs, booty and EYES - Oh yes!
This site does some great stuff, but has some real negatives for me:
1) The excess photo-shopping/painting of images - frequently takes all the erotic charge out of the pics
2) Ron himself ruins many vids. He's not a guy that tends to get women to want to get sexy. He has sexy models and if he just turned on the camera and pretended he didn't exist and focused on the camera work, the site would be hotter than it is. Nobody - including the models, it seems - wants to hear him talking.
JD, you've got it so right! There's a schizo element between the classiness of their product - Mark Daughm is a DAMNED good photographer - and the sleaziness of their business practices. They may treat their models well, but they treat their customers like dog crap - they are full of bait-and-switch tactics, selling subscriptions to products - CD's, DVD's, books - that they then discontinue with no financial recompense. They were one of the first porn-related sites that I ever spent money on - and they made me regret it many times over - LOTS of incorrect charges to credit cards that I then had to spend time getting them to reverse with NEVER an apology.
I rate them among the worst - right "up" there with the people that run MyaDiamond.com and EveAngel.com - and I have found that the people that run Watch4Beauty.com are in the same league as well.
Fetishes? Hell, yeah! The uniform thing can definitely be hot, the latex thing can be hot, the rough sex thing can be hot, the legs thing can be hot, the ass and upskirt thing can be hot, the fabulous boob thing can be hot - those are all fetishes. The best sites are ones that cater to lots of my fetishes and keep me interested.
Then there's the sites that get by with lots of gorgeous women - and that ain't bad either.
Close - Rip Off Bitch - dancers who have no interest in providing any entertainment whatsoever to the guys - they just want as much money as they can get. The opposite are high-satisfaction dancers - they're working, too, but they want the guys that spend money on them to be happy they did so.
