My point here is probly invalid because i dont have to many posts or w/e.. but i wanna know how u guys can hide links to pirated videos anyways? LOL? its illegal to post the videos anyways so whats the point of hiding them? u only want people who have paid u or have also contributed pirated videos? it makes no sense. Im sure this site would get more donations IF every damn video was available. More videos available = More consumers. More consumers = More funds for the site? Like if u want to share a video with a certain group of ppl put it in the fart lovers section or w/e.. its getting rediculous on how fast these links are getting hidden. EVERY good video is hidden. I rarely come to this site anymore. Hiding the links isnt gonna make people want to contribute more.
How hard is it to contribute videos/ stay active? Really is not that hard to do, yet people keep complaining "Why can't I see hidden stuff" when 50/51 of their post are just request and not even actual post or contributions, and yet at the same time you want everything to just be open and avaible to you? Logic is flawless.
you put hide tags around the links.
it's illegal to host the "stolen content" but to post a link to where the content is hosted is perfectly legal. there are actually many reasons to hide the links (pretty much all of which have been said on this forum). the most important one is that rats who go out of their way to report the links and have them taken down tend not to have active membership. after all, if they worked hard enough to be active then they're less likely to sabotage the board. of course, they usually still get removed eventually but it takes much longer by hiding the links. you may think that more people seeing it right away means a higher chance of the video getting reuploaded when it does get taken down but the people who reup clips are usually active members anyway.
wrong. i for one became an admin without sharing more than 3 clips i bought. i simply posted and was ACTIVE in the community. you don't have to contribute pirated videos or pay to be active, you just need to be active.
what you're talking about would simply kill this fetish. there would be no industry if every video was available in one place for one small fee.
you act like this forum is trying to sell a product. we are a community. one that has a ton of people who want everything for free. a ton of people who want to do nothing and bask in the glory of everybody else's hard work. if links weren't reported, then while annoying, that would be fine. if letting everybody see the clip you're posting means that there's a good chance that the people who actually contribute will never get to see it, then something is wrong. hiding links ups that chance. but who gets to see hidden links? how about the people WHO CONTRIBUTE.
and if you want to share it with everybody you post it in the main forum. if you want to share it with everybody but only if they contribute then you post it in the main forum but hidden.
more often than not, the links are POSTED hidden. they aren't getting hidden because they already are. people are tired of posting something for a few people in particular only to find that those people never had a chance to see it because it was removed too fast then having to reupload it upwards of 4 times because all of the other people who got it aren't even willing to spend the time to reupload something they wouldn't even have if not for the kindness of someone who did in the first place.
no, hiding the links isn't going to make YOU want to contribute more. people see what they can get if they just work a bit at it and they do. knowing that there are measures in place to help make sure they have the best chance possible to see the content they want helps make them want it even more.
Ok, u guys keep saying posting more content will get u active membership.. thats bull. U guys dont understand that not everyone has extra money to be shelling out on porn. Im Young, in college and would much rather spend my money else where. Now im not saying contributing here and there is a bad thing. Any time i buy a clip, i post it on here. (I havent bought clips in a while due to my last point) U guys want someone to spend eiether the fart donator fee, or buy 50 dollars worth of good clips just to see hidden links. I honestly think its bullshit that there are people going around hiding links anyways. I wouldnt mind if the poster was the ones who hid the links. It just seems like u guys are going arround hiding links to force someone to spend the money on the upgrade. like I posted a streaming site link earlier and its hidden already.. its a fucking streaming site ffs. why are u hiding that shit??
