Here is a compilation of almost anything you need to know about the things here on WBW. Here you can check if you wonder what things mean, why they are here and how they work.


Movie Gallery

Credits
To download movies you need credits. Read in the section below how to acquire them.

Viewing problems
The movies in our gallery requires the DivX codec to be viewed. You can solve the problem in two ways. If you don't want a new program installed on your computer you can download the codec so they can be viewed with the program you've already got, like Windows Media Player.

If you want all the encoding codecs, download the FULL package. If you need to playback only, download BASIC or STANDARD. I always take FULL, so it's up to you.

Or you can download the free program VLC Media Player and install it. It can handle our movies without having to install the codec. It supports most of the common operating systems.

Credits!!!

There are several ways to get credits:

Report
×  Correctly reported items - 1 credit

Forum
×  When you got 5 star rated by somebody you get 0.3 credit.
×  When you got 4 star rated by somebody you get 0.2 credit.
×  When you got 3 star rated by somebody you get 0.1 credit.

Babe/Car section
×  Every babe/car picture that you submit and is correctly moderated by a mod: 0.10 credit
×  For every picture wrongfully uploaded credits will be taken (pro/watermarked, not dupes) -0.20 credit penalty!

Movie section
×  Movies submitted and moderated with a quality of lower then 320x240 -> 0.05 credits per second of movie
×  Movies submitted and moderated with a quality of between 320x240 and 512x384 -> 0.10 credits per second of movie
×  Movies submitted and moderated with a quality of 512x384 or higher -> 0.15 credits per second of movie
×  For wrongfully uploaded movies (pro/watermarked, not dupes) - 0.40 credits per second penalty!

Tagging
×  You earn 0.01 credit for every picture you tag, if we find out that you wrongfully tagging images credits will be taken.

Important! You only get the credits IF your movie get ACCEPTED. And that means it has to show up in your queue FIRST and then be accepted by a MODERATOR.

To get unlimited credits you can also buy a sponsor membership and you can then download any movies without limitations. If you upload a movie that gets accepted while you have a sponsor membership you will keep the credits when your membership expires.



Babe Gallery
It may take some time before your pic are approved. There are many pic-mods but people upload huge quantitys of pics every day. Ususally there are around 30000 pics at a time waiting. When modded all pics come up in random order so if it takes more than a week or two you are probably just unlucky.

Pictures Permanently Rejected
With the update of v4.2 a new button was added for the mods with delete queue rights. When the mods with these powers encounters a bad pic (e.g. pro pics, copyrighted pics, frequent reposts, underage pics and such) they can use this option. While the pic itself is deleted the info for it are then saved in the database and when a member tries to upload the same pic it will be rejected immediately.

Top of the Babes
For a pic to appear on the monthly Top of the Babes list it needs to have at least 25 votes. For a pic to be eligible for the all time high it needs to have at least 50 votes.
When a pic get enough votes to end up on the list and maybe even on the top five on the front page it also draws alot of attention to it. This means that mods see them too. If a pic disappears from here and are no longer found in the uploading users Uploaded Babes page it has most likely been deleted because of a previously undetected breaking of the rules.

Error Chick Not Found :-)
This means that the picture you're trying to access has been deleted for some reason, usually because a pro pics or a copyrighted pic has slipped through our screening. The thumb of it might remain for a little while since the gallery is updated about every 20-30 minutes or so. Sorry, the pic is gone.



File Upload Problems

My Pics Got Entered Under Anonymous!
If you upload big zip-files and it takes too much time you might encounter this problem. If you don't actively surf on the site for a certain amount of time you automatically get logged out and your pics might get entered as Guest. They will then not be connected to your profile but be uploaded as Anonymous. To prevent this either have a second window open and occasionally load a WBW-page or make the files smaller so the upload takes less time.

My Forum File Won't Attach
Most likely you have used the "Preview message" button before you posted the message. When you upload attachments in the forum you can not use this button, press "Post message" right away and you'll be fine.



File Download Problems

Sponsors are able to have a max 8 parallel downloads for movies. If this doesn't work you might have to check your browsers configurations. Type about:config in the browsers adress line, check that the value for "network.http.max-connections-per-server" and "network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server" are OK. If those say 2, then it's two connections per server. Change this if needed and it should work.

If it's a big file the site might take long enough time to log you out. Try having another tab/window where you can sometimes refresh or click yourself to another page. That seems to have worked in the past. Also try tick the "Log in automatically each visit?" when you log in to wbw, it will be unticked when you press log off so no worries.

Blacklisting
Nope, there's no list of what sites are blacklisted. That would kinda take away the purpose of blacklisting since we have it so people can't acces that site for whatever reason.



[URL Greylisted - Awaiting moderation]
This is a feature we have implemented on this site to prevent spammers from advertising on our site. This affects all members with less than 100 forum posts on the account. The moderators responsible will check the link and approve or remove it as soon as possible.



Access Denied!
If you encounter a message saying Access Denied and get redirected to the main forum when trying to enter a thread it is because it has been moved to a moderators only forum. Most likely it has been moved to our Quarantine forum where threads that needs to be investigated or kept from public eye are stored. In some rare cases it could be bacuse the link you have got leads to a topic in The Office.



Unexplained(?) Thread Lockings
If this has occured the first thing you have to do is check when the last message was posted. If it is older than 30 days they get locked by automatic. No moderators involved. If you want to add more to a thread it can be unlocked for you, no problem. If the last message is not 30 days old or more and no other explanation can be found anywhere in the thread you can PM one of the forum moderators for answer.



Account Removal
It is not possible to remove your account if you for some reason no longer want to be member at this site anymore. Our database does not support deleting userprofiles. Just delete all possible personal info and leave the profile to be. After a while it will be marked as "inactive".

[PSA] Greylisting and you. [updated]

Public Service Announcement

You may notice that lately you have been going through some drastic changes and awkwardnesses, but don't worry, what is happening is a very natural thing. This is a special time in a newbie's life when you start to question these things like; why does my taste in women change, or why do my urls always end up greylisted, or even why does it burn when I pee?

Well <enter your name here>-y, its simple. As you grow older and your posting identity expands it is normal for you to have such issues. So to further your understanding of the subject here is an educational sticky.

What is greylisting?

Greylisting is a system of moderating urls for the public forum. It enables us to stop inappropiate urls such as spam advertisements, profane material like scat or gore, and even helps us prevent other links to horrible and scaring websites. Offending sites are blacklisted which prevents them from being posted on this site.

Why is it in place? Why do I have to wait for urls?

To prevent scum sucking spam fucktards from ruining our lovely community here. These sheep fuckers want nothing to do of helping or giving to the community, they just want a quick buck without any real work. Mind you if we didn't stop them, our forums would turn into nothing more than those common spam collector newsgroups.

But some advancements require sacifice. You having to wait a short time so we can prevent spammers making money.

Wait how did they ruin other places?

By greedily posting links to make money off of referrals. Eventually no real visitor would have a reason to visit. Who would buy or join a group just to be pestered by ads? Would you buy a DVD if it were only advertisements?

Well that stinks, but why do I have to suffer?

Well in the face of moderating, everyone new to the site has to be treated the same. Sorry to say but all new people will be under the same inspection.

This sucks. I want my urls to get through without being monitored.

Well if you prove to be a good person who doesn't act like a greedy stink-hole sucking spammer you'll be eventually granted the ability to post without being monitored.

What if a spammer's url gets through?

Well thats where you and the community come in. No system is foolproof and no matter how hard we try to stop douches from making money off our work, there will be someone to slip through. Its your job to help the community spot these scumbags and report them. Thus making WBW a better and funner place for all.

But... why does it burn when I pee?

You shouldn't of had sex with that crackhead prostitute. That'll teach you.

WHAT? NO PAYPAL!? READ THIS!


Since there has been an increase of questions regarding payment options from PayPal, here is a nice little explanation.

Wheres PayPal? I want to get a Sponsor Account.

We don't have it, and we probably will never have it again.

But why? PayPal is a great option, it'll let a lot of people join easily.

Here are some of the reasons why we don't use PayPal:

× PayPal screwed the owner Diz-X and Senja out of thousands and thousands of dollars.
× Likes to freeze accounts for no damn reason and confiscate your money.
× PayPal changes its Terms of Service ever so often and requires an education in the legal system to understand.
× PayPal's random changes of its Terms of Service give them the authority to do whatever they want because you signed away your rights on the site.
× PayPal's help and customer service is a joke.
× PayPal has several lawsuits against it for its practices.
× PayPal offers no real security for its Sellers or Buyers. All a person has to do to get someone else's account closed is to just merely say they didn't get the product they bought. Even without proof they can shut down your account. Just the same a seller can claim that the purchaser did not send the correct amount and the customer's account will be frozen without any questions.
× PayPal is dead slow. It takes nearly a week to get funds transfered and even then it takes longer for verification.
× PayPal just doesn't give a flying fuck about its customers.

ATTN ALL - Avatar sizes

Most of us who use avatars have known for a long time the limitations that avatars have had. Also, that the rules were never enforced since there wasnt really a need. people seemed to keep them all very sensible and theyve been all pretty good.

But now we have some members going to extremes and making avatars OVER 300px long, which has started to annoy members and myself. Members have complained of load times per page, scrolling just to get past the post etc.

So since im sure we ALL dont want to have avatars 100x100 i have asked Diz to make the new rule for avatars to be 100x270 MAX im sure most of you will see this as fair and big enough to make the flashy avatars alot of you make. The current rules will probably not be changed on the site TOS but they will be enforced regardless. From V5 of WBW, they will be AUTOMATICALLY adjusted when you upload them, but for now..a few mods will keep an eye on them.

So all you with bigger avatars will have to change to suit, in a few days i will start sending members PM's telling them of their avatar size, and if its not changed, i will simply remove them.
