Very nice!

Does "garbage" also include those who re-host/re-post nameless "tube site" content here?

The cam thread has become littered with such, especially in recent days:

I can work directly with JB_Wannabe to clean this up, or any of the other capable Mods, as you wish, once guidelines are established.

I tend to favor clear direction over false reports.

We got some good feedback from you guys, listened and together with admin and mods picked out a few quality hosts and we have created an additional list of hosts that you can use for posting provided you use one of the main ones as a mirror.

This list may expand in the future so stay tuned and happy posting!

I think that should be minimal size of divided file - e.g. files should be divided for at least 250 Mb parts.

Welcome back and enjoy your stay!

Well, in my opinion there is really no need to reject something just because its "old". Some old-stuff is gold stuff and pretty most of the older stuff i am sure is driving more QUALITY traffic to this section as any new releases do.

Edit: Also i think its more important to look at a thread at ALL and not just by prejudge someones hard work in running a nice mega-thread here. Even if this means that some old content and new content is mixed.

Personally, i more like to visit these kind of threads rather then a thread only contains new content of russian girls where one chick is looking like the other one

Some plugin checking the topic names for duplicates may would help here since this section has clear rules on what a new topic name has to include.

A more effective method would be only allow certain uploaders to post here or maybe some kind of IQ-Test before able to kick a new thread, > lol.

Otherwise you can´t handle this high volume of new "recent" content that gets posted here in real terms.

I would like suggest that we could be free to delete our posts. Should be a " X " button on each post for example.

Sometimes we make wrong posts that we could delete without need request for the moderators do it for us.

On the most of forums always have a button to delete the posts, why not have here too?

Because you could bump your thread up and down like a rollercoaster then.

lol...

Do you believe the users will waste time in delete and repost the same post all time just to keep his thread in the first page of topic?

I don't believe it will happen (an user delete his post just to bump the thread), if he lose his time doing that with all old posts, he will not post new content! And no new content, no new sales!
There is no logic!!

And even if an user still do that, the mods can ban him if his content is not new!
It's simple!!

Well 'spammers' do not act very logical usually. You can edit your post when making a mistake, i guess there are much more important things that could be improved.

If you think that "...there are much more important things that could be improved..." as you said.
So... why don't you start to list them?
Instead of answering for other members because you did not liked their suggestions!
It could be more productive!

For sure, will not be a button to delete the posts which will increase the number of spammers!!
But it could help the Moderators to detect the spammers more fast.
Because they will start "bump their threads up and down like a rollercoaster"
Then when they do it, it's just ban them!

There are a lot of spammers here even without the option to delete the posts!

And there are other ways of spam.
For example...
This thread was created to post suggestions. Any member can post a suggestion here!
Maybe... reply to other members because you don't agree with them, also can be considered a way of spam!!

And who will decide the "degree of importance of the iimprovements" for this forum, will not be only you friend!
Remember... you are not a moderator to decide what suggestion is good or not to be posted in this thread!
So if you don't like other members suggestions, it's simple...
Just ignore them!

File sharing started with the usenet, while usenet was developed even before the internet for the purpose if intellectual exchange between different places. However, piracy and porn proliferated from this medium. You can find just about anything from usenet from software, music, mainstream movies, interesting pictures (not porn) and all types of porn. Usenet was part of the deal that each ISP's provide which probably very few know about. If you're wired since the first time internet surfaced, you should have had this with your ISP package. With the surfacing of anti piracy laws, usenet service is no longer included in the package ISP's provide, you have to subscribe now to usenet services at a low price.

One thing I missed with the usenet is a newsgroup dedicated to pictures of cheerleaders, not necessarily nude but rather cheerleaders of all ages in and out of their uniforms doing what girls do. I am not suggesting that a thread like this be started since I don't think anyone would post such pictures, but if anyone here want to start, I can share a few pics that I leeched from the usenet. Also electronic books, music, music video and mainstream movies would be nice additions to the forum. For now, I have to go somewhere else to get these stuff.

Just FYI, usenet did not use file hosters. Usenet providers have their own servers and do not rip off users. i was only paying $10 per month when I suscribed to supernews.news and i get everything the usenet offered. you can check this out at supernews.com if they still exist

when i first joined this forum it was a community where
people participated for fun and threads had vibrant
back and forth replies and requests.99% posts were on rapid or
mega and noone made any money...

then came the explosion of file host cash whores and the
0ron fiasco,the floodgates opened.

how to improve the forum-ban all cash hosts

So true jumper, it was a fun community for sure. We all shared for the pure joy of it and never payed any attention to making profit. Most of us spent our time chatting, laughing and of course posting fine porn. I think my threads had more chat then porn. LOL Most became friends in and out of the forum. This was the best forum online... bar none.

RS was used mostly and most gave away free accounts and nothing was about profit for us. We all liked what GS offered and we regularly bought access to his site and supported FF and GS's ventures. That's what community is. But that is definitely missing here now, it's all about which host pays, how much and if they cause problems posters just move on and they don't care about the DL'er. That's a shame, but a reality. Take K2S it's slow and DL's die alot for free users, so to me it's horrible and not worth buying.

I've been here since pretty well day one in one form or another and I miss the old days with good friends G, B, S, RM, SD. It's a long list. LOL

P1

Some of us still drop by now and again Bob

But the place has just become so big and so controlled.

I agree with you here, once it was a fun community, now Its a business.

Nice to see you again mate

the search function you should'nt change its awesome

edit: but a subscribing function would be useful.
