I am probably a master lurker by now. Ive been on this site for years and years pretty much always here. I personally have paid for premium for quite a long time until I had to cut back on spending.
Its never been personal, or even a problem to post. I just dont do forums a whole lot, and I tend to keep to myself a good bit.
I do love your site, and am very appreciative, and spread the good word about you and maybe even got some subscriptions here by folks I trust. SO again, nothing personal at all with any of you or the site, I just dont post much.
Thanks again, and sorry I couldnt help a bit more
I don't spend much time in the forums here as I help run some forums elsewhere. The little time I have remaining after that is for a quick stop in here, and check out a few of the threads I see on the homepage. But I don't think it's as much being new for me (I'm been a lurker for a long time) as it is a limit of time. And I may read various sections, but just don't get moved to post unless it's something that really catches my attention.
I do like the humor of many of the core I see all the time though. I doubt I would feel uncomfortable jumping into any of the threads. Just boils down to time really.
Also, not sure what the possibility of getting the forums onto something like TapaTalk would be - r something that can be used on mobile devices. That would open up a LOT more time for me because I could visit while waiting at the Dr office, for the kids, etc.

I wanna address the part about noobs not feeling comforatable with posting because of the tight friendships that long time members have.
I was a noob not that long ago. I joined and lurked for awhile, and thought the stuff going on in the Lounge was funny as hell, so I started to post a little bit here and there. There was maybe the odd time where I didn't get a joke, and felt a little left out, but the long time members welcomed me in to their fold. In very short order I came to know and befriend some of the regulars. during that time I become friends with Honda, EL, Bangles, and many others...those friendships last today...even though I left the site for over a year and a half.
Moral of the story is...I think we're all people that are easy to get along with, but like any group of people we all have different personalities. Jump in and see who you click with, I guarantee you'll get along with someone.
Talking to other dudes on a porn site I visit to jerk off to seems kinda gay. You wouldn't invite your friends over to check out a new porno so why would you make friends and chat with some random dudes from a porn site? My one year membership is coming to an end so here are some things I didn't like:
1. The rating system has got to go, just because a girl has huge tits does not make her a ten and viceversa for small boobs. The rating system should be based solely on views.
2. Enough dicks in the top tens already.1 or 2 pictures/ videos of dudes getting blown is ok, but its like 9 out of 10 every day and half the time the girl shows no skin. If your gay admit to yourself and go to an all gay site and quit pretending you like boobies.
3. 5,000+ posts and you wouldn't fuck that chick with a friends Dick. It maybe time to go out and POP your cherry even if it requires some form of monetary compensation.
Besides that was my sister you just rated a 2. Ya jerk.
Good things:
1. Hot girls
2. Easy to use site.
3. Regular up
4. Plausible denyability. The mods crack down hard on underaged looking posts. So I don't feel wrong wacking it all the hot young ladies.
5. Hot girls.
Here is my simple suggestion............... Have a credit system for the Rated G/PG section of WBW which is greater then the credit system for the Rated R/X section.
IE: If I were to post 20 porn pictures I would get 1 credit but if I were to post 10 G rated pictures I could earn the same 1 credit. If I were to post 50 replies in a porn related thread I would receive 1 credit or I could get 1 credit for posting 25 replies in the G rated sections. (These numbers are just examples)
If you want this to be more then just a porn site then you need to entice people to contribute to the various other forums on WBW. To me its just to easy to jump on here, cruise the porn, then jump off. When I have the funds I buy subscriptions to help support this great site but with this great economy my wife and I have lost almost $30K a year in income so that makes it hard to spend $15 a month on a subscription sometimes. With my situation if I knew that I could earn credits faster/easier by posting or contributing to the other parts of the site then I would do that for sure.
Another suggestion would be to make the porn section more of an earned reward for contribution (IE: Members Only) I know this would cut down on some site traffic but if you had a way to earn a membership based on contribution to the other parts of the site then the traffic wouldnt slow by much and the quality of the traffic would improve. As a free member currently I have access to almost as much as I do as a subscriber. The only real drive to subscribe is the movie section but as of late that section has been full of 30 second horrible clips that are poor quality. With the amount of free content here your begging for lurkers, and freeloaders. If this great site were mine the first thing I would do is create an archive and make it members only. Once something in the porn section makes it to page 6 (for example) it would then be archived. That would limit the amount of free content which would force people to contribute by either subscribing or making posts in other parts of the site.
Ok I think I have offered enough stupid ideas for the day now I will venture off and cruise all the great free porn here.
Thank you. I kind of see it from both sides. All in all I just want to see this place prosper as I love coming here. Eventhough I frequent the porn sections the most I have thumbed through the other sections.
