That's very much the nature of GFY and some boards. It gets to name calling and flaming without any real constructive debate, or Bro calling for little reason.

The Adult Internet is in decline, the balance has been tipped between free and paid. It's now better for so many to not pay than it is for a few to pay.

Throughout the 10 years I've been here the only numbers that people talked about was the number of site visits to sales. Very few would quote the number of consumers to the number of sales. That's the number of people looking at a TGP gallery or today the number of views on a tube video. They are all porn consumers. Sadly today 0.001% are buyers.

Yes if a Tube converts on visits at 1-1,000. How many views does it need to get 1,000 to click the banner? Go to Pornhub to see the real ratios. In the beginning no one could afford to give away that much free porn. Today they can, so they will.

In the times that people ridicule, men had to buy to jerk off to porn 99% of the time. Even pirated videos cost the price of the tape. Today it costs nothing to view porn 24 hours and never pay.

The only solution lies inside the paysites. Not in putting up more free porn.


For the flamers. Today I feel a lot better. Last night I was very sick and must of eaten something Sunday that really upset my stomach and given me a fever.
