One thing that HAS to be said in reply to this post is that you do not know what you're talking about. Although this may be your little fantasy world of what YOU consider to be true, a simple precursory look into copyright law proves you wrong.

Seriously... do a little research before you make comments about something you obviously don't know anything about.

This reminds me of this old thread that I started...

http://forum.transladyboy.com/showthread.php?t=6026 Take a look at the last post on that thread. Clearly, this kind of post is damaging to the industry and has no place on a 'legitimate' forum such as this [is]. This post should be removed and the person warned against making further posts of this nature and banned if he/she persists.

Hey, I get it... you guys want free porn. It's human nature to want things for free. That doesn't make it right OR legal. The fact of the matter is that in posting mass amounts of ripped content, you don't often realize how you're hurting the models and the sites that provide you the content to 'get your rocks off.'

As an independent producer and a VERY careful keeper of all kinds of statistics and records for my site, I KNOW for a fact, when I see a sharp decline in sales, invariably, I can trace it back to either a forum with rips from my site or pw sharing.

I think Seanchai has done a pretty good job here of defending his stance and hardly needs me to weigh in on the subject but, what really irritates me about some of the responses is the 'justifications' for posting ripped content. Instead of making up illogical (and sometimes just plain stupid) reasons to justify your actions, you should just say, 'I'm selfish and don't want to pay for porn.' OR, 'I want to look important and that's why I post ripped content.' This last one is personally the reason I feel most people post excessive ripped content. They like the replies of gratitude and it helps them think that what they're doing is OK. Just my two cents.

Because, really, why else would you care if you're asked to limit your postings to 3 pictures from one set?

Below is the message that you are referring to.

Tell me how this this message is damaging to the porn industry. The member stated that there are many tube sites on the internet. He is quite correct in that statement. Poor grammar and spelling aside he asked members to PM him for, I assume, the names of tube sites. There is nothing illegal about that. You might also note that this member has not been back on the site for more two months.

If you feel so strongly that Mold's post should be removed then I suggest that you use the Report Post button in the message box. The instructions that follow will tell you what to do.

Obviously, I didn't care that much since I didn't even know the post was there until I revisited the thread tonight. BUT... Here's your answer... (read my above post first please)

In effect, what this Member is doing would be akin to a person sitting on the front doorstep of a auto dealer and telling people as they walk in, 'Psst... why pay for a car when I know of a place where you can get all the cars you want for free... oh, by the way... there's probably one or two stolen cars mixed in there but who cares.'

I think any reasonable person would call this 'damaging.' Hey, if you want to do the homework to find all the little sites on the web that cater to the free porn people, then by all means, go ahead and do so. By leaving a post like this up in a public place, the Forum is basically 'looking the other way' at letting people post links to places to download stolen content. Stolen content IS bad for the industry. Period. I don't think (at least I hope) I need to go into the book of reasons why that's true...

First of all I have no desire to go out looking for tube sites or free sites. It is a very rare occasion if I even look at a free porn site (except for tlb).

Secondly not all tube sites have stolen content. Some do, but even then not all content is stolen.

Thirdly this site does not tolerate stolen content nor are links to tube sites allowed. It states this in the rules.

BUT... it's ok for someone to say, 'Hey, private me for the links for free content?' I'm pretty sure this is what is meant when one refers to a 'double standard.'

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that probably 99.9% of all tube and torrent sites have stolen content on them. They simply couldn't exist as a business model without it.

Even if SOME of the content is stolen (hey, I just robbed a bank but I left some of the money there so everything's ok) for a particular site, should this Forum be in the business of encouraging people to go there or making it easier for persons to find the site? I think not... that is, if you truly believe in the rules you've set up.

I am not the owner of this site nor do I make the rules.

This thread is getting off topic. It was originally intended to ask members here to quit posting more than 3 pictures from any one set from a Grooby site. This is a reasonable request and is the thrust of the thread.
