 | Several weeks ago I decided to make another site. Last attempt, if it fails I'm done with internet and will do something else.
The main concept is to make a blogging site for adults where people can post their personal posts, share photos and start general discussions. Which is nothing new, actually, but I wanted to make some special features. Main feature is to assign categories to posts and allow people to filter by categories. I.e. if you want to see let's say personal blogs, adult stories and big tits porn photos - you check corresponding categories and see only posts with these themes. Another feature (which would be irrelevant at start due to low amount of users but might become actual later) - to filter posts by country, province and ultimately city, so that you can find friends with similar interests in your location. I was also thinking about age categories, so that people could also receive what's more corresponding to their age interests. Indeed I would also make to-follow lists, friends lists, block lists and groups, so that people could follow specific people or interest groups, block people they don't like and could post for-friends only private posts. That all is pretty mundane also. But now, the more I think about it, the more it looks like Facebook. I was not going to make a copy of facebook, but it's just going down to that. So I begin to doubt - do people really need another Facebook with a mere difference that it's oriented mainly on adults? As far as I understand you can create groups in facebook and post adult images and stories there so it would not be any different. Or am I wrong? I do not use facebook personally. The site would not require to specify your name and phone number and thus would be different from facebook and would not log everything about people like facebook does in other word it would be more "anonymous", but it's not much of a difference. Can you please help me to resolve my doubts? Do you really need a site that would be in its core pretty much like facebook, but for adults and mainly about porn and sex (though indeed I would allow there any kind of content that is not strictly for kids - funny pics, political discussions, sport discussions etc.)? I mean, is not there yet enough of sites like that? Does another site like that have any chances? Would you recommend a site like that to your friends? |

Love it.
it has been done before, but a rating system would suit me fine! not just pic of the month, but a top 10 of the day, top 100 of the week, the new and coming up, the top 100 classics. whatever!
endlessly choosing: what do you vote, the pic left or right?
and if you want to categorize, also categorize cut/uncut, i don't like seeing those cut "tortured" dicks...
And with their new attitude to adult and new policy that includes manual penalties of the sites they do not like this site is very low in google. And there is no way any site can develop without new members.
Thank you--I've been a member for over four years, and find a great deal to come back to here, most every day.
I don't know what happened to the chat rooms. I understand why you removed the MAIN chat, there was ALWAYS fighting. Individual chat rooms was a good decision. but know? well I just don't know. people just sit there in chat.... and type nothing. then they get pissed because no one is chatting.....
I think something that would put this site right up there.... would be to somehow do video chat. you know like they do on lifeout.com
just a thought, for the most part I really like this web site and visit it often.
As for a new site, I would enjoy seeing what your next venture will be and will be sure to help you start it towards success.
I had a thought a while ago about the improvement on this site which is driven from FB as well, why not build a notification platform as it is in fb? like the ones prompted up once you receive them?
1. Not dedicated to posting your own pics and chatting but to blogging, discussions and sharing any content both your own and third-party. Mostly third-party I guess, as people rarely produce anything good of their own. Even most of press consists of quotations from other sources.
2. Organize all in one feed, not split in forum, blog, groups, etc. A lot of people seem to be unable to find half of what this site has.
3. More categories and filtering. I think I figured out how to resolve a problem with multiple categories and people being unable to put their stuff into proper category.
In other words - I want a conversational platform for adults with advanced interest targeting, not just "post your junk" as this site is. Completely different, in fact.
You can change the home page to contain feeds from every section so that everyone will have all the choices right in front of them and can find what's hidden in this site easily.
I like the sound of your new site idea and would certainly want to check it out and hope it builds in members.
I wouldn't say your idea is like a new Fartbook. I ditched that site a while ago because I was sick and tired of logging in and having to scroll through piles of the mundane crap people seem to think is 'interesting' and something their friends would actually want to read!
Another factor that made me scrap the site was their continuous changing 0f privacy rules and how the users would need to change settings to 'protect' their personal information. I ended up not trusting the site at all, particularly once they started stating they had the legal rights to use anyone's personal pictures and comments as part of their publicity campaigns. That itself was bad enough, but what it also disclosed was the untold access they obviously have to every user's personal messages, pictures and information.
If you're proposing a site that doesn't act in that way, I'd gladly be involved with it.
And indeed I always wipe out everything that people delete. I do not log it all as I suspect facebook does.
By now, we should all be reasonably clued up on how easy it is for pics and information we post publicly to be found online by anybody. If someone isn't so clued up, they might have to learn the hard way.
This site was not blocked because search engines were primary source of new members for it. But since they are no longer a source, there is no reason to put up all the stuff for anybody to find.
Making for members only is another thing, though. Same easy technically, but more, way more difficult to promote.
It'd be nice to have a page somewhat like facebook but without the worries of being reported and banned for telling someone to fuck themselves or posting a picture that has a nipple in it.
I've heard of a site called fuckbook, but I haven't checked it out... Sounds like a meet up and fuck type site, which I have no interest in.
Would it be easier to promote such a site? Without promotion, it's likely the bigger part of membership would be people from here... Which wouldn't help it thrive much...
I figure that search engine promotion is dead now - too unpredictable and unreliable. May work, but there is very little chance. Like 10% may be. I don't bet money on such small chances.
So the only chance I have is if people spread the word about the site. Not gonna happen with this one, but may happen with the site I have in mind as it would look more "normal" so to say. There is almost nothing wrong with the site where you can speak freely, insult others if you want and share internet porn from other sites occasionally. I mean, it's still no-no in the general society, but I think there is a lot more people who are OK with that. And as for SYD - many people see it as a site for perverts.
