I prefered the interface as it was. What would be more ideal would be a control that allowed either the larger-type format (which is probably easier for people viewing on phones and tiny screens) or, alternatively, the smaller font (which is definitely easier for people using larger computer monitors).

Ah, I see.

I've already noticed that a number of torrents (not marked "ratio lift" as yet) seem to remain free-leach for quite a long time.

Thank you for answering!

I'm afraid I don't quite follow the distinction between a "ratio lift" and a "free leach" torrent.

Would you be so kind as to explain it again, in different words?

Yes, I think I probably learned to do this accidentally also, and find that it's especially effective when it's combined with deliberate, slow, teasing and "edging."

In other words, before pausing to allow ones penis to "deflate" completely, one should have managed to keep oneself extremely stiff, aroused, and "at the brink" for a good, long while, and then, instead of yielding to the urge to release, gently slow down, stop, and take a deliberate intermission, enjoy a snack, turn attention to something totally different for half-an-hour or an hour, and then resume the masturbatory teasing.

I've actually encouraged a phone-j/o buddy to do this, too, once, when we were enjoying a very pleasant and exciting fantasy together, and both trying to "make it last."  At a point when we were both teetering on the brink, and restraining our lust with difficulty, I proposed that we simply stop for an hour, and then get back on the phone to work ourselves back up.  It led to an extremely intense and delicious orgasm for both of us.

I think so many men are a little embarrassed about masturbating, and so, don't explore some of the ways that it can be enhanced and refined as a pleasure in its own right.

There really should be some orderly name for this sort of technique.  I think it's actually a bit safer to practice what I'll call "intermissions" instead of "edging," because very prolonged, unrelieved erections (several hours) can actually do some damage to the tissues of the penis (a urologist warned me of this, once).  I do remember, many years ago, prolonging an erection for many, many hours, and, later on, finding that parts of my penis were actually quite sore for a week afterward, not from chafing or rubbing, but probably from some damage to small blood vessels in side.

Taking "intermissions" in a long session, and allowing our penises to deflate, is probably a good way to enjoy the same protracted session without doing this sort of damage.

It seems a bit unnecessary to devise a "policy" regarding such a thing.  I cannot imagine that it's really all that relevant to the sort of material we generally enjoy here, and it seems that such a prohibition would only serve to exclude a "themed movie" that happened, also, to contain depictions of injections.

I'm curious as to why this became an issue which the staff wanted to poll members about.

三昧 (sanmai) is the Japanese transliteration of the Sanskrit word समाधि (Samādhi), which is a state of deep meditation.  I believe that "fera-sanmai" ("fellatio-samādhi") would refer to that state of being entranced or utterly carried away by the pleasure of being sucked off, which is a frequent feature of much Japanese porn, both that involving females and males, or that involving just males.

The Japanese title is 淫欲の変態人間便器, which reads "In'yoku-no-hentai ningen benki," and which I think I might translate as "Transformed by his lust into a human toilet."

It is sold (supposedly without pixelation-censorship) at this Web site, and seems to have been filmed late in 2009 or in 2010.

Oh, good!  I'll be sure to test it today, and see if I can confirm (as a naive user) that things are working more smoothly!

Thank you!

I tried the new picture browser again today, and I see there have been some slight changes (since the last time I used it) that made it more comfortable; in particular, the pop-up of the title and description seems to work better now, and makes it much better for looking over what's new than it was when I first tried it.

I have a number of new comments.

(1) when people create a new torrent, it would be nice if you provided some mechanism whereby they can exercise more precise control over which of several images will be used to illustrate the torrent as a pop-up in new picture browser, and which will be used to illustrate the torrent on the older search page.  At the moment, as far as I can make out, the first image to be uploaded to a new torrent announcement is the one used as a popup on the old search page, and the last image to be uploaded appears in the new picture-browse and on the page of the torrent itself (before you expand or leaf through the other images).  I think you should allow the uploader to select his exemplary figures for these two purposes.

(2) I think that, as a result of this change, something about the "comments" popups on the old search page was damaged.  I used to get a popup of user comments when I selected the comments link on the search page.  Now, I get an hourglass and nothing happens.  Very occasionally, if I then move my mouse cursor, I get the briefest view of a popup which should have appeared, which vanishes again before anything can be read.  I imagine that this will behave differently in different browsers, but that's a sign that something isn't as it should be.  Something got broken along the way, here.

(3) I still think you should add a control to the main page of a torrent that allows that torrent to be added to the "wish list"–this feature is only available at the moment on the old search page, and so users who prefer to use the new picture-browser have no way to mark a torrent for their wish list except to go back to the old search and choose the wish-list control there.
