Yes - I'll change that after Anjela today - It'll take some work rescheduleing and photoshoping new covers/rethumbing etc.
I should have it sorted by thursday.
It's good feedback - I like members feedback because it helps me work out what to do for the best. They say 'what doesn't break you makes you stronger'.
Having said that your review actually killed most signups off from PU so it's actually become harder to afford the time to make the changes - I put double the effort into my other traffic sources because without them I won't survive.
My response here is out of courtesy to you as a member - it doesn't result in any gain for me.
Some members hit me straight up when they see faults/broken links/dumb things because they want to see the site get ahead but your review has simply killed the value of PU as an affiliate to me.
You are entitled to do that - it's the nature of the review site - and it was PU's choice to list my site - anyone can affiliate and rate the site in any way they choose - If my site doesn't come up good anther site will look better so it's no skin off the review sites nose!
And it's not anyones fault - just the nature of the beast.
I find it odd to read the ratings on some of the sites that I used to be a member of - famous sites I won't mention - that people go slackjawed over - but to be honest - when I looked at them I was hard put to see a girl that would make my cock hard - they were all so over-acted. My point is that if I gave famous site 'XYZ' anything less than 90+ nobody would believe me - it becomes kind of like 'the Emperors New Clothes'
But Cheers - I will act on your advice - all the best to you.
Fritz.

I take your point about the release of the oral - I'll tailor the future releases differently - I get really great feedback from members about the girls - it's really great to get helpful critcism because it helps me understand what I'm doing wrong and what isn't working - but it such a killer to simply get dumped on - there is no doubt that I'm making mistakes but I've been going for three months and I'm getting good support from some other sources - enough to move ahead and to get some steam up and I believe that will pull me through. Why don't you hit me up for a refund if the site is really so bad?

You seriously would rate Abbey Winters, FTV, Hegre, Femjoy and Met-Art all without any hardcore at all at less than 70 points?

Yes - thanks for your feedback.
- I appreciate that you are genuine - so am I.
Most of my 'backend' as you see it now represents where I've come from and the new releases represent where I'm heading.
- I'm doing more hardcore but in all countries girls resist hardcore and the ones that do generally turn 'pro' overnight and shoot for every studio they can find.
- a prime example is SashaBlonde or Alisa - I shot both of these girls early, before they were even on Met-Art even but niether would do hardcore.
So while I was accumulating enough content to launch a site these girls and a dozen of the others became famous but it still leaves me at the 'back of the pack' so to speak.
I found the girls early on enough but I didn't have the 'muscle' to get lots of them and get my site up quicker.
- You'll like some of the new girls coming up like Krista and Jana - and there's Larisa and a new shoot of Lesia too.
- Also I can assure you that any girl shooting at all has already signed a release and produced ID for the shooter, even in Russia.
Girls who 'relent' are generally following a script and have developed a talent for it.
As soon as you deal with Russian amateurs you can see that the 'scripting' is the first thing to go out the window because of language difficuties.
- Support for the site from tbp has stopped altogether although it might start up if they publish an in-house review, but on the strength of your review sales have ceased, so people do read them!
But I will weather it all and I believe that i'll achieve my goal of producing a top class site of genuine and lovely girls doing solo/hardcore.
- Oh - also i've got to add that the only reason some of the unique girls (like Lesia) do shoot hardcore is that they've learned to trust me from doing the solo shoots. The dynamics of finding girls outside the 'studios' is fascinating and frustrating sometimes!
- Anyhow I hope you continue to enjoy the site

Yes - it's my bad luck that you hit the site the only time the cms has had a glitch since I started.
- I've held back from promoting the site as a 'hardcore' because I didn't want to misrepresent the content to members.
- New releases are increasing in hardcore.
- 'thebestporn' chose to list all the sites. I only intended them to offer webmasters a 'long' and 'short' sitefront to suit their traffic. Not every affiliate wants to promote a site that has big pages to load like fritzryan has.
- thats why all the members of all the sites get the full content. I didn't want to 'short-change' anyone.
- I'm thinking now of eiether dropping 3 of the sites or splitting the content.
- zip files are a good idea too. It will be a little while before I have the time to zip up the sets and ftp them to the server in their correct folders. I just lost a whole day dealing with the cms issue and some video player bugs with the DivX clips. Still it's on the 'to do' list as a good idea.
- I've tried to be really honest with surfers and not overstate the site or the content.
- It's interesting that you like the unique content (lesia etc). It takes me a huge effort to go and find these girls and then convince them to do hardcore. There are a lot of girls even in Russia who just do the revolving door of content producers.
- But I also get lots of supportive members who want me to move ahead and keep shooting and it gives me a buzz to get their feedback and help.
- Many good ideas and tips have come from early members. It feels like 'family' sometimes!
- But the 'caning' you gave the site in your review has had a result though.

from fritzryan:
Yes - the pics are not my highest skill
- but it's very true that I do all the work myself
- I shoot all the hardcore POV so there is no assistant and I manage the camera angles myself
- there was a glich in the software for the release dates so 1 complete update fell over but Amalynes hardcore is up on 31st
- it's been the first update failure since the site was completed in May
- it's a problem that I do nearly everything alone
- if I was well established instead of building my program I'd afford a full time programmer but these are the difficulties that I have to face up to a deal with
- some girls speak good english because they are English or Australian not all the girls are Russian
- very few girls come from agencies and in fact most of them I find myself even though the famous ones are known to other shooters and sites
- more hardcore is being released. A lot of the most recent is only now being released. The content you see now represents the 'learning curve' for an individual shooting porn.
If I'd simply bought content off a DVD and ripped it you'd see the same stuff on 20 other sites. But yes, it would be more hardcore than at present. It just wouldn't be unique.
Cheers - Fritz Ryan

Igolli,
As a half fat old American dude, I LOVE seeing the half fat Russian dudes get the beautiful russian women. Is that racist?
For the many porn viewers who are no longer young muscled studs, I enjoy the niche of porn that has the older, not-so-muscled guys screwing the beautiful young ladies.
Best wishes to you.
Russia seems so much sexier than the USA, or at least it doesn't seem to have so many Puritans against sex. Is it true?

You're overreacting. Saying just "half-fat Russian dude" is merely descriptive of what Denner was viewing. And maybe he isn't Russian, for all I know, in which case it would be a factual error, but hardly a slur along the lines of nationalism, to say nothing of racism.
Russians and other originally Caucasian peoples are pretty much of the same race, anyway. A significant number of what became the population of Europe, and then the so-called "New World," migrated from what is now Russia or neighboring countries many centuries ago. To give another example, Kirk Douglas was of Russian descent, but I couldn't have figured that out just by looking at him.
And the reference to the Russian mob, well it's them for God's sake, not the whole Russian populace. The same goes for Italians, Jews, Irish, you name it. Denner did not contextualize his remarks in any way that could be reasonably interpreted categorically as anti-Russian.
It seems that you would like for us to walk on eggs in fear of offending anyone with a big chip on the shoulder and edit out all specific references of cultural association because they'll be liberally interpreted as crude overgeneralizations and thoughtless slurs, and then attacked as such.
If that's what I'm pushed into a corner to do, I'll just say, "Goodbye" and leave that misery for those that wish it upon themselves.

from Denner:
Good review from igolli.
This site seems to be worth looking into and according to igolli it looks like it's dutch.
Heavy price, though.
