Never. It has always struck me as a rather feeble ploy to keep members from cancelling their subscriptions. My favorites are on my hard drive.

REPLY TO #2 - Drooler :
errr ... Drooler ... sorry I wasn't more clear with the question. I was thinking that the poll type "Our Site" would indicate the question had to do with the "Add to Favorites" feature of PornUsers but I forgot the poll type doesn't show with the poll on the main page. My bad.

Don't know why - it must be a thing with us "old" PU's.
Got the same idea as Drooler: When you join a site they often have that question: Add to your favorites...
I never go for that.
BTW, Khan: Why have you changed the setup at:
https://www.pornusers.com/home.html
I miss the old ways where you could go directly from this page to lists, users and so on.
Not crazy about the new setup........

REPLY TO #5 - Denner :
Well again, sorry for any confusion.
The "Add to Favorites" feature here at PU is for following remarks submitted by other users who's opinions you've come to value.
For example, I notice you tend to like Drooler's reviews. So, if you used the "Add to Favorites" from his profile page, you would find it easy to see his latest remarks, even if you'd been away for a few days.
As for changing the home page ...
No, I don't think there's been any significant changes recently. Of course we added the link to the new users' forum but the "Browse Users" link is still there too.
If there's something else I'm missing, let me know and I'll see what I can dig up for you.

He was referring to the bottom half of the home page. It was missing for several days. I did not like it either when it was missing. It is there now, so no need for alarm!

Well I've had a few sites in the section, and now I just popped a few users in to see what happens... I really don't quite see the value of the section that much. All it does is list sites I like, which I know I like because well, I like them. It also lists users whose reviews I like - but it doesn't list their reviews.
Certainly I could click on each one and see if they've posted anything new, but I think it would be much more useful if it listed say the latest 10 reviews from the combined group. Not 10 from each, more like if you made a list of all the reviews by those users, sorted them by date, and then showed the first 10. Then it would give me the option of going back farther and farther in the list. That would be quite useful. As it is now, meh - I doubt I'll use it much.

Ok, that's news to us. Neither me nor the programmer caught it acting up but I assure you, it wasn't a planned change. :)
In the future, should you ever see anything that doesn't look right here at PornUsers, please don't hesitate to drop a line to technical [at] pornusers [dot] com
Anyhoo .. glad it's working right now.

I'm glad I came in late so I know the point of the Poll.
I use "My Favorites" on the PU site to store sites where a review or a comment by someone I trust makes me want to consider signing up.
My budget maxes out at $50 per month with exceptions for sites that I want to sign up for longer stints. I've gone as high as $75 but find that that's a waste of money because I don't have time to visit all those sites frequently during a normal month.
So when I see a site written up on PU that looks very promising, I use the favorites feature because my mammary...oops I meant memory....isn't quite what it once was.
If your question is raised because you're thinking about removing it, please don't. But if you do, please give us some notice so I can copy the list.
Thanks.

REPLY TO #3 - Khan :
OK, Khan, thanks for the clarification. "Type: Our Site" just didn't register in my morning brain clearly enough.
But no, I've never used the "favorites" feature at PornUsers. Maybe it's because when I browse, I tend to cast the net widely, and when I hunt down info and opinion on a site, I just don't need the favorites feature.
Also, I've been keeping my own database on porn sites for 6 years now (thus much longer than PU has history) and it's loaded with info. Add to that my extensive bookmarks.
And I just tend not to keep records of personal preferences on web servers. There's always this thought it my mind that if the site changes or disappears, it could all be lost.

It is a feature that is not that useful to many people, but it hurts no one by being there. I would say the easiest way to track favorites is the the scores the person assigns. No one gives their favorite site a 62 score! VideoBox is my favorite site, and that is fairly clear to anyone who looks in my profile.
I can see the usefulness for storing site names that you have not visited yet. I might actually try that out myself. There are so many sites I wouldn't mind trying out that it is very hard to remember 90% of the ones I say "hey, I need to check into them when I am done with whatever I am working one." Maybe it is more useful that I originally thought!

To be honest, I never really took advantage of it. Now that I know more about it, I will use it more in the future.

With a site with a huge amount of content this is
a nice option. Unfortunately I don't know very many
sites that have it.
