Memberships... auto-approved
-
I read this today from a distinguished moderator:
"So, ALL accounts are automatically auto-approved at the moment."This puzzles me.. because it is contrary to the efforts of keeping people out of this site who are underage, trolls, non-contributors, etc.
Back in the 1920's when I first applied to gay porn sites, I had to provide several references, and proof that I had uploaded a substantial amount of porn to other sites already.
Seems to me, that at a bare MINIMUM.. before having a membership activated and given access to the torrent section of this site.. one should be required to upload at LEAST one porn video.
Furthermore.. any member who has not already uploaded at least one porn video.. should have their access to the site suspended.. and if they don't upload anything within 30 days, have their membership terminated.
I also wonder how these new members are getting in. Is someone selling invites? Invited or not, they need to upload at least one porn video before being given access to the torrents. What is the point of having members who do nothing but troll the site and complain?

Really, darling - you're not supposed to mix alcohol and your anti-depressants! THIS is the result!
First of all, if you were requesting access to porn sites in the 1920s, those were called speakeasys
There was no Internet in the 1920's... and porn was a Federal crime! (As was almost anything approaching being gay!)But also, I'm not aware of any site that requires members to upload content.... share (aka seed), yes... upload new content, not so much.
Now let's let the alcohol wear off and take an extra pill or two of the happy-pills and maybe you'll talk like you have some sense again...
Aw hell, who are we kidding! ROFL!

So I was the moderator that posted the "All accounts are automatically auto-approved at the moment", but I think there was a misunderstanding. The "Auto-Approval" is for their UPLOADS to be allowed, instead of going into a queue where a moderator has to verify everything about the upload.
Sure a few bad uploads slip through but they are quickly removed.
I know there are other sites where they require active logins, as well as uploading X amounts of torrents a month, but they're also FLOODED with duplicates from people just trying to hit their quota to keep their accounts.
We like to keep our uploads on the side of Quality over Quantity. I have personally removed about 40 duplicate torrents today, and countless others in the previous days.
As for the topics of invites/how people are joining, We have a lottery for new signups (As well as users who are inviting others). I can look in the backend of the website and see how EACH and EVERY account was created. Yours for example was created during a period of open sign-ups.
You have very strong opinions about how the site should be run and I understand that, but there is a reason we are the largest site for this type of content.
