| Some of you might know me from the past, some of you may not. Some of you like me and i'm pretty sure some of you don't; or i'm just the sort of person that doesn't like the same things about this site as i do...and that's cool. Each to their own when it comes to what you actually do here.
However, we need to work together to do something to fix the dwindling member numbers on the site.
I'm an oldish member who comes and goes once in a while. Coming back, i was so glad to see all of the site stalwarts who keep this place we all love operating still here and still contributing to keep this site viable; some of the new features are awesome too...but, there is no reason why there should be only 20k members on the site - most of us have probably trialled other sites and realised that this is the place to be. It's warm, it's community-like, it's familiar to the point of even being nostalgic/sentimental to some of us, it's easy to use, there are tonnes of friends to talk to and it has even been improved by some of the extra features admin (and whomever may have advised him) has put in place.
Let's group together and think of ways to kick-start the membership levels increasing and maintain those member volume increases!

Shhh....it hasn't returned to that 40 after 2 days from 80 up overnight. Shhhh! I'm sure it was just admin purging dummy accounts and dormant profiles - call me an optimist who is skeptical about most things
I agree oldies that were here before miss the old days and it was fun and we all came together as a group. Things change. Sometimes not for the good but what is suited for who runs the domain. It is clear what the intentions are which must be respected..
As for the dwindling membership, yes, membership has dropped but keep in mind there were things that factored into that and two reasons come to mind. Something to do with Google cracking down on the porn industry, so people looking for sites like this could no longer find them AND admin did some housekeeping. Yeah, he has set up the system to purge inactive profiles after 6 months.
I'm not going to harp on this issue HOWEVER we seem to still receive abuse referrals for lame reasons and what is even more lame, there are voting members that support the lame referrals.
Also, the site needs to receive financial support. It would wonderful to see more people providing financial support whether it be buying their membership or purchasing points. I know of no industry that can survive without cashflow.
I think the Google crackdown has eased since it first came in. I stopped watching porn for a while after that, but when i got back into it the other day - all of the major sites appeared if you typed their name in.
I'm not the sort of brain who knows anything about the internet or tech. The day after i re-registered a couple of days ago i typed "show your cock" (instead of "show your dick") into the search engine and the site was nowhere to be found (every other amateur site turned up). Whenever someone types show your tits/breasts/boobs/vagina/pussy/twat/beaver/love holes/body/dick/cock/dong/prick/donger/member/arse(ass)hole/homemade porn/amateur porn/p.r.i.v.a.t.e. photos (pics) etc etc etc - the site needs to turn up in the first 3-4 search items.
I think you are right, that requires money and those of us that buy memberships to get those procedures put in place...but admin could chuck some in too with the hopes of profits in the future?
There might be some members around that are able to spread the site around to their real or social media friends - but i reckon 99% of us would rather our friends didn't know that we participated in sites like this. Careers/jobs/families/people in the closet/straight women&men (telling their straight or bi or gay friends and the possible implications that may arise from that)/people with partners/friends in general/etc etc etc again.
We can do this though, b! - don't be defeatist - we're awesome (:!!!--------------------------------------- added after 18 minutes
I remember 2 or 3 years ago i was searching porn on XHamster and a pop-up ad for one of those scam penis enlargement pills blasted me in the face. I gave it a slight glance, and i was like, fucking hell "that's my little American bro from another mother" - it was blatantly a stolen picture of the original MAJOR. They're stealing our shit, let's advertise there (XHam might be a bit pricey - but one of the smaller free sites...). I can imagine a tonne of bored gals/guys that are sick of searching for porn that they actually like going "fuck this, i'm going to try this site out - it looks fun and i get to put my own stuff on it and maybe have a human say hello to me or show me some gratification." The add would have to be super non-intrusive whilst being alluring though

I also think free accounts should have a time limitation of 6 months, then they have to be full members or make a points purchase every 3 months
Let's just keep it exciting to prospective members! We all know it's fun even after Googlef'd us, we can get it back to what it was prior! F'n TEAMWORK, people!!! Fun, fighting, fam, good pictures, good arguments, interesting posts, kinky stuff,...all of the above and more
I can't come up with "other ways", it's regulated and there are no many options for adult sites, all major payment systems like PayPal do not allow them. If this was not an adult site it would be much easier.
As far as I understand the current payment processor allows to pay from US checking account directly, but it does not mean your bank will allow it.
You can use a prepaid visa card. Many can be loaded at a national drugstore. Money lending businesses can set you up with one too

My bank, BB&T, lets you use debit card for site payment
We don't bite as hard as we bark, actually some of us do - but it's all good fun
I just want to see this site prosper like it should though, mate - no other site's really like it
