To me, it's a question of keeping my interest more than anything else. I like cam shows, so a site like Phil-Flash.com, which I rated extremely high, that has frequent HOT updates, adds bonus material to keep me glad that I'm a member and has lots of cam shows, which are events that you have to be there for to get the full effect, well I ain't leaving.
ALS Scans uses a different incentive - their vids are only available for 1-2 months, then they're gone for quite a long time, so since I love their vids I maintain my membership on an ongoing basis.
If a site gives me no special benefit to maintain membership on an ongoing basis, though, I'm more likely to leave and come back when the mood strikes me again.

I agree with this - being a recipient of two mis-trust ratings and wondering where that comes from.
It would be helpful to us users that are doing the reviews to see why other users thing that we are not to be trusted.
Hopefully the comments would be good, constructive criticism.

The best way that I have seen to deal with older lower-quality content is the example of ALS Scans - they are consistently remastering their older material and re-presenting it in a higher quality format.

While I understand the reason that site-owners charge more the first month - because so many people join for one month only - I think the smarter site-owners and the ones that are more satisfaction-oriented will do things that reward people that stay longer with things like higher-res zip sets (Karen Dreams) or more bonus sites (DP Fanatics).
I like sites that reward members for sticking around with more than just $5 less after 1 month.

There are great sites out there that are active and are updating on a regular schedule. There are a lot of rotten sites out there that are dead or rarely update. Some great sites , like Club Thaichix, have fairly ugly designs and give very little indication that it is a great, consistently updated site with people who run it that care about the site and the members.
Some rotten sites have pretty attractive designs with lots of bells and whistles.
One excellent way for a user to tell which is which is if the public material gives dated update info for the past 2 weeks-1 month.
Phil Flash's individual model sites are a great example. You can tell from the face of the site which are being updated regularly and which have gone dead. Maybe you still want to join a dead site to see material that you haven't seen yet.
I appreciate knowing what's what.

Penis size matter? No
What matters to me is whether the guy is interested in the girl. I can't stand porn where the guy just stands there with his hands behind his back having the girl suck him or just thrusting like he's getting paid by the minute - boooooorrring!! If I'm going to see boy/girl stuff, I want to see guys that are turned on by the girl and putting their hands and mouth on her like I would be if I were in that situation.
I swear, there was a point when a lot of the guys that appear in porn don't give any indication of even being attracted to women. That's changed with the prevalence of gonzo, luckily.

What country are you in? I'm in the US and I haven't been experiencing this at all - right now I'm downloading with a download manager with a speed of 516 kb/sec, which is the download cap imposed by Comcast, from what I can tell - I never get downloads faster than 525 kb/sec.

Interestingly, the material that I have downloaded at House of Taboo (and of course this just represents my tastes) downloaded as "Hot Legs and Feet" material - so I believe that there is definitely cross-pollination across all of the various brands - not that there's anything wrong with that, in my opinion.

I, on the other hand, am enjoying the hell out of the August deal. I've rarely been a member of DDF sites so there's lots of new stuff for me. I'm like a kid in a candy store - the pages do load slow, but with the firefox-based download manager that their webmaster recommended last week, downloads of vids are quite quick.

What's interesting is that while 1byDay posts these ALS Scan sets as their main post for the day, from what I've seen, ALS Scan posts the 1 by Day and Met Art material that they post as bonus posts in addition to their usual posts of their own material.

This decrease in updates wouldn't be as bad if a) they stopped advertising 2 updates per day, b) they added an extra update when one of their "Jokes" sets was the set posted, or c) they added an extra update when they posted an ALS Scan set posted - I've got to give props once again to ALS Scan - when they post a set from 1 By Day, it's an extra - it's not a replacement to the ALS Scan material that would be posted that day. In my view if a site is going to a flag-ship site - as ALS Scan is - as One By Day is - and if they're going to charge premium prices - you have to join One-By-Day for a full year to bring the monthly price below $20/month - then they ought to be held to quite a high standard of performance.
If they've got one main guy as they photographer, and he's stretched doing work on their other sites, they ought to do what Suze Randall did and cultivate a group of contributing photographers - have those others fill out the updates on the site to give more value to the members.

Man, that's the weakest excuse I've ever heard - "some reviewers at Porn Users are saying bad things about our site so we're going to cut our updates by half!" I can't imagine that they would be so petty or dumb. It's a premium-priced site and the flagship of their brand, so it doesn't seem like a wise move - but perhaps they looked at how going to 2 updates a day had affected their membership and just didn't see a difference between joins at 1 update a day and joins at 2 updates a day - so why not save the money and cut back to one a day?

I had the same problem with I joined - the next morning - this was back on 12/24 - several sites were unavailable. I e-mailed their webmaster who got their tech dept on the problem and added 3 more days to my bonus memberships. It was cool to be able to check out DDF sites that I hadn't before. I thought Hot Legs & Feet especially had great material of the bonus sites.

Too late to edit, but I decided to do some hunting and see if some info had gone to spam - and bingo. 1-by-day had in fact e-mailed me info on how to use the Christmas Membership Promo - just go to the Customer Support page and click on an "Activate My Christmas Memberships Now" button. Cool!

Well, having bit on this promotion, I feel like I've been bit myself.
I decided to go for it and joined 1 by day with all the banners about join one site, get 5 days access to 7 others. Once I'm a member, I get NO information on how to use this promoton - my confirmation of membership doesn't mention it.
So I figure I can just use my 1-by-day username/password to get access to Hot Legs & Feet - one of the sites listed in the promotion - nope, doesn't work. I submitted a ticket on the site, I'll be interested to see how this goes. I'll be delighted if I get a prompt response with a solution.

They stopped saying when they were recycling material when they stopped posting new material. When only some of the material being posted was recycled, they would have a sticker on that material saying "Back in 2003,..." Now that all of their posts are recycled, they don't have stickers on any of them. This has been noted in previous reviews by knowledgeable 1-by-day members, including Drooler. I understand that they are presenting those older sets at higher resolution, but it's still a huge con for one of the most expensive sites around to be presenting virtually all recycled material.
To me, it approaches the level of larceny shown by the people that do EveAngel.com and MyaDiamond.com where they just keep cutting content from the beginning of the site and presenting it as new over and over again.

Two months of nothing but recycled material sounds like a huge con to me - especially when they don't even mention it. I guess they spent a lot of money when they went to two full pic & vid sets a day and this is their way to sit on their laurels and rake the money in, since they aren't paying models or all of the other costs of doing new shoots, which can be extraordinary.
At this price I can't justify paying them to just recycle their old stuff. But that's just me.

I believe that they changed this back about 2-3 weeks ago.

It looks like they have heard the complaints, because now the prices are adjusted, but are back to being in US dollars.

That's a good way for them to deal with the need they had to raise their prices to euros. It's still out of my league price-wise, at the moment, but it's a damned fine site.

Yeah, I agree that they use too much make-up - but it's a fairly flat look, which is a hell of a lot more natural than the Kabuki blurring shit that Twisty's has been doing to their models in their exclusive sets. I'm fucking furious about the shitty-ass shoots that Twisty's posted of Andie Valentino. I thought it was the photo shopping, but they claimed that it was the make-up and lighting - whatever it was, they must have thought she was the homeliest woman in the world, the way they covered her gorgeous face all up - pissed me off!

Whew, what a furor!
I think Bela responded emotionally to her site being compared unfavorably to a major competitor.
The reality is that new forum members are going to come in and talk first about their fave sites - at least that's what I did when I joined.
Bela's got a right to be proud of her site. I'm more a pics than vids guy and DDF pics are just awesome. The vids vary in quality, but at 2 vids per day, there are certainly a whole lot of good ones being added.
Overall, I think this whole discussion has been a good one at addressing a lot of issues that are common to this site.
Davi, you did a good job at keeping your cool and arguing for your positions - good move. Welcome to the forum - it ain't boring, at least.

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.

Great deal for Sweet-Models members. Sweet-Models was my first introduction to DDF, so it served it's purpose. The new site blows away anything that they had in the past - it's nice to see a long-established site do that.

The re-designed site is a real pleasure. I had found the old site to be frustrating. Great stuff to be found here, their models are top notch, the photos are high quality.
My biggest complaint: lay off the pancake make-up. They lather it on thick on all their models, most of whom would look great without it.
But when that's your biggest complaint, you know you're at a great site.
