I don't think anyone here is going to credibly argue that the two examples I linked to above are "quality" pictures. I'm sure someone, somewhere, thinks those two pictures are gorgeous. Maybe it's their mother. Maybe it's a guy who thinks they remind him of his long, lost love.



Or maybe, the first pic you linked to ... http://whatboyswant.com/showpicture/1363823/1/ ...
is the uploaders wife or girlfriend. All 7 of his uploads seem to be the same girl. So he can't upload just because you don't like it?

That puts my mind at ease! I LOVE YOU MAN!

He's an idea. How about rather than deleting pictures, why don't we have a feature that allows you to chose what pictures you see. For example, like how we can select how many thumbnails we see 20 - 50 - 100 etc....why don't we have a "only show me pictures ranked over...." And then you pick the number. That way if you don't wanna see the 4's and 5's, you don't have to.

Indeed

I do think it would help people find more of what they are looking for...I guess

Love the site in its entirety. As with sponsor membership, which I highly recommend, one of the benefits is being able to download another members favorites, per page as one zip file. Brilliant! I bring to you a request. Please allow the same function to all of his uploads as well. At this time, that is not permitted. The technology is there, please allow us to save each page of the user's uploads as one zip file. That being said, is it possible to download multiple pages as one zip file? (say the entire favorite collection for example). I sure hope so!

I'm a fan of more downloads in the threads as attachments (especially downloading in one zip file) instead of links to a sponsor site, etc. Is it possible to encourage a more internal way to manage the photos, versus linking them to outside websites etc?

Is there a feasibility of a user chat room, where pic sharing in real time is allowed with other members? I think there could be a real use for it!

This is by far my very favorite site. Thank you for all that you do and all of those who continue to contribute these lovely ladies daily!

I support this idea. Hell, make it 2%!!

Well I had a speech prepared as a rebuttal to Tarquin. Your post pretty much sums it up for me too.

To each their own. For instance, I don't like most of Tarquin's fav's, do I bitch about that? NO, because this is the only site that tries to cater to all tastes within the rules of posting of course.

Yes it would be nice if I could not see all these facial pics and bondage stuff when rating pics but, why would you take the pics I like away?

BTW I liked the older woman on the right.

No. Thanks for totally missing the point and trying to start a fight though.

Feel free to engage me when you'd rather be constructive and productive.

Well, that's certainly a good step in the right direction.

That said, it won't work for anyone not logged in or anyone that doesn't have an account. Settings of that type pretty much require cookies to be used and enabled.

It's at least a step in the right direction though, and would at least work for some of the members; depending on how comprehensive the setting selection was for the site.

I completely agree. Well said. Bring on the quality!

Notech, am I missing something? In what way did that reply have anything to do with the issue I raised about comprehensive content quality?

I'm genuinely asking to see if I misunderstood or glanced over something. I don't see anything in the post you quoted that would be related to the conversation on quality of content.

Does that help Tarquin?

You like so many others seem very focused on what is GOOD and what is NOT.


Your GOOD is not my GOOD

Fair enough. She's certainly not my taste, but again, who am I to judge?

All the same, the girl on the left um...



Let's say I upload 2,000 pictures that you think have one hot chick in them. But I also put a nice shot of a donkey's ass next to each chick in every photo I have.

Other sites have the same chicks I do, but without the donkey's ass.

Which site are you going to spend more time on?

(you ain't goin' to show me that big cock again are you? )

Okay, but at some stage, skipping all my donkey asses becomes tedious, no? And other sites are more convenient.

I have always been pretty open minded. That being said, if someone on this site wants to see a picture of naked Latina midgets jousting from the backs of elephants, wonderful. I won't be voting, but hey, some guys can't stand girls with medium to small boobs, either. Myself, I am a not a fan of big, fake boobs. I don't want to take them off of this site, but I won't be voting or marking them in my favorites.

Another question. Are we not getting new members as fast as we used to, or are we losing members?

If it's one thing I've learned from being a pic mod, it's that there is always gonna be someone who finds that 1% attractive. And while I personally don't, I also don't mind seeing a 5 before seeing a 9. Admittedly I am not WBW's typical member, but I also don't think I'm alone. I like the fact that we allow all kinds of content, and if we change that, I believe we become like everyone else. It's also potentially a dangerous road to travel down, in the fact that we're now censoring ourselves. I don't wanna see WBW evolve into a site full of fake boobed wanna be porn stars.

A viewing by rating system wouldnt change the site, but would allow those who chose to bypass the lower rated pics.
