I think regional pricing is bit of a cheek, but I don't feel as strongly as you - 15 seems a lot to reduce the score by! I have put it into the cons, and will let people draw their own conclusions in this respect.

Alright fine, one more go around. lol
It's not a stonewall attitude.
You don't get your way so we're stonewalling you? Not quite. It's our site. We run it the way *WE* want to run it. Same as any business, if you don't like the way something is, you leave.
We don't offer zips. That's it. Pretty straight forward.
As for Regional pricing, as with zips, if that troubles you - move. on. already.
there are reasons we and other sites do this, and no, you don't get a vote or opinion. If you ran a site yourself, you'd understand that every single day things fluctuate. Bank rates, chargebacks, fraud, bandwidth from assholes that attempt a rip etc. So yes, some sites including ours compensate for this.
When you visit a store do you complain about the % on the dollar? When you do - do you notice they don't care and they keep doing what they do for their reasons? What happens next? You leave. I'm not sure why you feel sites have to explain every aspect of why they do this or that. We don't. :)
Move on and find a site you like. Simple. :)
Again, best of luck in your travels. I hope you find what you're searching for.

"No point in doing photos then."
haha okay then.
"With the rip-off regional pricing, it was academic anyway!"
Again, positivity wins the race.
"Best of luck getting any photo collectors."
We don't need luck, but thank you for your well wishes, very nice of you.
We have thousands of happy members and guess how many complain about not having zips? Less than 0.01%.
Photo collectors go to most sites, see that site's "high resolution" is 1200 or 1500 pixels. (our free promo content is 1500 pixels for crying out loud) Then they see us slamming out 4000 pixel content and where do you think they'll sign up?
The simplest advice is go somewhere your personal needs are met.
Best of luck in your travels, I'm done replying to you if all you're going to do is attack. Man up. If you don't like something, move along and find somewhere you do like. How this is not common sense, I'm not sure.

We will never offer zip sets of any kind, for any user.
If you're after zips, there are several sites for you that will keep you happy. Best of luck in your travels.

As I said in what I wrote, 80% of our member base that replied said videos are more important than photos. This same sentiment has been echoed in various forums, surveys, even surveys here at PU in the past. Videos are more important than photos to the majority, but that does not mean photos are not important. :)
We still feel they are important, which is why we still do them.

I noticed the other day that the regional pricing through CCBill seems to have gotten more expensive. A couple of sites I checked out the other day where the price was listed as $29.99 (USD) on TBP were actually a few cents short of $37 (USD) when I compared the GBP price on a currency converter. A more than 20% difference in the exchange rate seems way over the top to me and I know there's no way I'm willing to pay $37 a month to join any site. I don't think it's going to be too long before I run out of sites I'm prepared to pay out for if this rip off continues.

I don't consider it disappointing, the content is decent, and 1 photo and 1 video update per day is pretty good as far as updates go (generally I have found sites that update super-frequently tend to just update with crap). I'm not sure what you mean by sophisticated material, but I thought it was a decent variety of stuff.
That said, I doubt I will join it again, but the same can be said for almost every site I join.

Not really all that worthwhile, just pointing it out for reference. It is a pity you can't join all for one reasonable price.

My definition (not an official definition, just my own, because I don't know how the porn industry defines the genre): Glamcore is what some people at PU have called heartcore. It's a romantic approach to hardcore porn, where the emphasis is on "soft", non-gonzo sex. It's become very popular the last few years, with sites like X-Art, SexArt, Babes, Passion HD, Joy Mii featuring attractive models, usually has soft instrumental music background, some storyline (implied) beyond a simple wham-bam-fuck of two or more hard bodies. Trying to inject a bit of eroticism or meaning beyond a simple fuck.
Like the name implies: Glamor + hardcore = glamcore.

I think they are going for the "gross out" crowd as their new subscribers. Even many models would not have found their way into this site only two years ago. There is actually one with horrid home made tattoos all over her body. One tattoo reads: "Lead me to your dealer" and her sets rate highly because of the hair factor. How the mighty have fallen!

I just visited the site and the first model I see is Andrea Spinks a.k.a. Pixie who I don't think has been active since the early 2000s. I've never been a member but I would suggest the lack of any kind of proper preview is a cover up for the fact the site hasn't been updated for years.

I am going to go with Capn on this why outside is ok it seems allot of photography focuses on natural like then contained settings.
I as well like the tease of film and straight nude loses it for me.

A very good question, Cap'n! I can almost tell you with certainty, no there won't be, because your taste will no longer be determining anything because it is out of fashion. You should see all the sites I subscribe to at the moment where I don't download more than one set/video per week .. and even that one isn't exactly what I want. My main excitement of the day is to give most sets a low mark and to nurse my anger at being ignored.

I love the way they splash "only $14.99 a month" all across the tour pages then when you go to sign up its actually $24.99 for the first month....that's shady for a start.

I'll second that - this is something that interests me too, so if the webmaster is watching, do give TBP access so we can get a review up here!

I'm told that we don't currently have access to the site so a review hasn't been done yet. It is on the list to do as soon as the webmaster gives us access.
Sorry I couldn't help more.

I'm actually not. The simple truth is that people eat Big Mac's because they like the taste and nothing else. If price was an issue then they certainly could find a cheaper burger than the Big Mac but it wouldn't taste the same and that's why they keep going back. You can't tell me that people wouldn't still eat Big Mac's if McDonald increased the price by a dollar or two?
The same can be said for porn. Some people will never pay more than 20$ for a porn site regardless that it might be something they would enjoy and in return some people will gladly pay more for something that they enjoy. The only sticking point is paying a lot more for something that you aren't sure you will enjoy. That I understand.

Is price really an important factor? Here's an example. I rarely eat McDonald food but I know that many people love it. Cost is not the issue because even if they offered me a Big Mac for a dollar then I would still pass. I love the fries at McDonald and that wouldn't change even if they increased the price on them. All I would do is eat them less often or cut back on something else.
There are Dollars Stores opening all over the place and although you can get plenty of great things for a buck. There are also plenty of things that I would never buy for a dollar because they aren't worth the price.

No denying the fact that it is one of the more expensive sites you can join so I won't argue that point. Now do I think it's worth the money then the answer is yes but with reservation. The type of porn these guys offer is from a niche that is not really represented so if you are a person like me who enjoys that then where else will you get it. I would much rather pay 20$ ather than what I did but they aren't offering that option.
I wish there was another site with similar content that is still updating but the only one that comes to mind is 21sextury's grandpas fuck teens. It is a lot cheaper but some of their grandpas aren't necessarily as old as most of the ones on Oldje, the content is not necessarily any better than on oldje and might be less appealing and they don't seem to update as often as oldje.
I was dubious when TBP decided that cost would no longer be a reason for a lower score but I often find that it's not an issue for me so maybe they had something. I have joined sites that were less than 20$ where I felt cheated. Mind you I also joined a network of sites for 90$ and the only reason why I felt more cheated was because it was so much more expensive. My score is only affected by the price if I find that the content is of such low quality that it doesn't justify that price.

My guess is that the people behind it had no intention to actually create a site and likely no experience either. It may have just grown out of the fan community and then they figured the could charge perverts like me to join. As a site, it really needs a lot of work.

Thanks Capn but I'm more on semi-retired status. Don't spend a lot of time downloading new stuff anymore. Now, I'm more of a lurker here than a contributor.
