@MrMazda I'm going to take a moment to thank you and all the other people that give your time and energy to moderate these forums, and to apologise to you all for what I'm about to say as I suspect it's going to be worthy of a ban, but this has been a long time coming and I really do feel it needs to be said....

@lololulu19 You are a gay man, correct? I am also a gay man. Here's my opinion: I RESENT BEING LUMPED IN WITH YOU! The amount of utter bullshit you spout in these forums seeking attention is unbelievable. Let's just break down your last reply to this thread:

• How does having a trans category "lump you in" with anyone?

• You get pissed off over gays and lesbians standing together? Go and stand by yourself then! You do know what a coalition is, don't you? Why didn't you go and form your own group? Why didn't you go off and just be honest and say to everyone else "I'm going to gather people together to look after my interests and mine alone and fuck everyone else because as long as I'm ok that's all that matters!" Let's expand the boundaries a bit: Do you give 2 shits about gay people who are persecuted and even killed in other countries, or is that unimportant because YOU have little in common with them?

• "I resent being lumped in with lesbians, diaper "babies", pedophiles, necrophiliacs, scat people, sado-masochists, people being hurt or humiliated, etc" Who in the name of all holy fuck are you convinced is lumping you in with any of these? Granted, I'll give you the "humiliated" one because you publicly humiliate yourself with almost every delusional word you write here. Who are these people in your life that make you feel so uncomfortable, and why are they still in your life? Are you really so paranoid and scared? Even if it's not paranoia and random people are judging you that way, why don't you do something about it and go form a group to... Oh wait, we covered that already!

• "I suppose the real issue is I don't like being regarded as being a fetish - as if I am mentally ill or whatever." Again, by who? Do you even know what a fetish is? I mean, if somebody does get gratification from someone presenting as mentally ill then I'd say they're onto a winner with you. In all honestly though, how many people have made advances towards you and said anything along the lines of "You seem deranged and unstable. Fancy a shag?"

• "If anybody is mentally ill, it is straight people who produce children that they cannot raise themselves, can't support financially, can't provide a happy life or a future, and leave them to rot in an already overpopulated world that is on the brink of a nuclear war." I just...I... but... I genuinely can't work out where to even start with this bullshit. The very first thing that springs to mind I won't say because it dives in to political territory and I don't want to open up that can of worms and send this thread off onto a tangent.

I do my best to refrain from commenting on most of your posts because my first reaction is usually to be a snarky bastard and I don't want to look like I'm targeting you unfairly, but sometimes you come out with something that really deserves to be challenged. I really do think you're an attention-seeking troll when I read threads like this.

Most of the time when you do comment on other threads it has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand. I remember one thread where someone was asking about a problem with their username, and you helpfully chimed in with a picture you claimed to have taken of Tom Cruise's condo building, harping on about a helipad on the roof. It feels like you've claimed to personally know more A-list celebrities than Jay Leno, and about as many top-ranked porn stars. Then there are all the posts where this happened or that happened. The first thing that comes into my head when I see them is "This one time, at Band Camp...." If your life is that interesting then why are you wasting it telling us all about it?

Most of the time when you bring up your eloquent "lumped in" feelings you'll create a new post and then just leave it hanging there like an eggy fart in a spacesuit, never returning to defend what you've said when everyone leaving comments disagrees. You just ignore it all, wait a few weeks and then create a new thread doing it all over again.

Then add in all the other recurring themes in your posts:

• This site should only have uploads that I personally like. I don't want straight, trans, bisexual or anything else to be available for anyone as it doesn't interest me.

• All men must undergo mandatory training on how to have anal sex and use anal sex toys

• To pay for college tuition men must either join the military or be forced into making gay porn for 4 years. (As I pointed out in another thread, this is specifically gay porn, regardless of orientation.)

There's more, but what's the point in mentioning it because you won't care. You're selfish, insular, lack empathy and appear to have no respect for anyone or anything that doesn't get you off.

You feel like you're being lumped in with other groups unfairly? The gays here aren't the ones doing it, so go forth into the streets and take your arguments to the people who apparently are. Just remember that while others might even fight the same fight, you'll be fighting on your own, because apparently most other people aren't worthy of being seen with you. Personally, if I'm excluded I'll wear it proudly as a badge of honour.

Coincidentally (or not if it was somebody in this thread that posted it!), this just showed up:

@Fwills Posting where, and under what account name? Or are they just getting spread randomly? Do the videos have anything useful in the filenames? The more information you give the better the chance of someone finding out. Maybe then somebody can get in touch with him and tell him it's pointless trying to sell something without telling anyone how to buy it. LOL

@pupkinvasya said in Need help ID-ing this guy:

This is Randall

In my head I heard Gerard Butler in "300" when I read that.

Thanks guys. Some interesting reading there.

I always expected there to be a sizeable difference in pay with mainstream studios when compared to something like Raunchy Bastards, who seem to use newbie models and usually have them only do 1 scene. You wouldn't expect top-notch pay for that, but working regularly for an established studio with exclusive models, high production standards and a huge fanbase you'd obviously expect a bit more.

I hadn't heard about the Armond Rizzo thing before, but it's good to see that there are people in the industry who are willing to take a stand.

I used to be a huge fan a Helix, and still grab the new scenes when they appear as I'm something of a collector, but I've noticed that I rarely watch them these days. Maybe I'm just not into the current batch of models. I defo never watch anything with Josh Brady. He doesn't really fit the theme of the studio in my opinion, and something about him just turns me off.

Good spot though! I'm sure somebody will take the leap.

@MrMazda I suppose that makes some sense. Tops are under pressure to "perform" whereas bottoms are always ready.

@john32123666 Sorry, the site won't let me give you more than 6 upvotes a day. Please check back in tomorrow.

@john32123666 Thanks for the response, but I think you might have misunderstood my question.

I'm curious about how much people get paid for gay porn, and if there's an overall difference between tops and bottoms.

For example, I'd like to know what a relatively new performer might earn for a scene against a studio's star performers. I'm thinking of people like Kyle Ross (RIP) who was a Helix exclusive model and became synonymous with the brand.

Then you have guys like Daniel Hausser, Austin Avery, Dakota Lovell.... They spread themselves around various studios and are obviously in demand, but is this down to low pay and the need to shoot as many scenes as they can?

Also, is there a difference in pay-scales between top, bottom and vers guys? Do performers earn more for fucking or being fucked, or is it entirely down to there looks and fanbase? I would imagine that they would be able to expect more for doing certain things like fisting. Would you expect to be paid the same for a 1 on 1 scene as you would for letting 10 tops take turns on you? And if so, what sort of numbers are we talking about?

Having seen a couple of documentaries about the porn industry in the past I'm curious about how much someone can expect to earn in the gay market.

The documentaries were primarily about the straight porn sector, and made a big deal of women being paid significantly more than their male performing partners. One phrase I distinctly remember is males being referred to as "warm props" which I suppose is understandable as straight men are usually only watching to see the women and don't care who's fucking them.

Does this dynamic bear any correlation to gay porn? Are bottoms in any way favoured over tops by studios, or are tops more in demand and hence paid more? How much might a newbie earn for their first few shoots with a big studio such as Helix or Cockyboys versus one of their big exclusives?

Is it possible to actually earn a living wage in the gay porn industry? There are apparently women who make 6-figure sums in straight porn and use that as their sole income, though I'm sure they are rare if they do actually exist, but I can't imagine the same being true for gay performers.

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge (not speculation) about this?

@MrMazda Did somebody say paddles???

@MrMazda Don't worry, dear. I think this might become a running joke between us thanks to a third party in another thread.

@john32123666 I have tried that strategy in the past, but results haven't been much better. I just seem to get much higher upload speeds on torrents from the .net site, regularly seeing speeds in excess of 15Mb/s whereas on here I rarely get much over 1 or 2. It could just be luck of the draw, but thought I'd see if there might be something I'm missing in my client.

I'm just curious if there's some way of improving my uploading speeds specifically for this site. If I sort my completed torrent in my client by share ratio then things I've downloaded from here consistently show the lowest ratios when compared to the other 2 sites I visit.

While I'm aware that such things are largely based on how popular a download is, how quickly you join the swarm and some other factors, my current actively seeding files on here top out at a ratio of around 3:1 whereas I see 8 or 9 to 1 on another site and between 50 and 70 on the other.

Is there something I can do to improve my ability to share here, or is it purely down to the characteristics of the swarms I'm in?

@john32123666 Don't moderate me!!! LMAO

@ianfontinell It's B. If you're unsure always go for B. Or A. D in some cases. C is just asking to fail.

Sorry to quote such an old comment, but since this thread has been revived I wanted to point something out.

@yepyep7891 said in Bad ratio preventing download - i have a good ratio:

And what you say about peers, they're not even involved in the download process, so I find this really weird.

Peers are absolutely involved in the download process. I have managed to finish downloads in the past without ever actually connecting to the seeder. If you are connected to peers who have a enough parts to constitute a full copy then you are able to get the whole file from them. If peers played no part in the download process then why would you see upload traffic on a torrent that you're downloading?

@ianfontinell I totally agree. It would allow for unlimited bumping of uploads and create an utter mess.
