    That's actually not my concern. I do already have a good archive of pics I've downloaded, and most of the stuff I can find elsewhere. For example, shemalestardb has a big (and legal) library of trans porn pics, although recently it seems to have less non-Grooby stuff.

    The main added-value of this site to me is the girls who aren't shooting commercial porn, who I might not otherwise come across. I know people can still post 1-2 pics, so it remains to be seen how much this posting will be affected.

    To be clear, I'm not objecting to the tightening of the posting rules so much as the unecessarily heavy-handed way it has been imposed.

    I notice that some of your threads where you posted many images were deleted. I assume this was something you liked doing and you had no idea that you were doing anything wrong. Do you seriously have no opinion of your own on what was done?

    You have the right to question and ask - you don't have any right to expect an answer.

    I'm probably one of the few larger company owners who does respond and interact with our members on a daily basis. I'm also involved with the adult industry on a number of boards like Xbiz.net as well as checking in on here and http://groobyforum.com daily and answering anything pertinent.

    In short, you have the right to ask what you want, but as an unpaying customer to this board, no other rights.

    There used to be 100s of forums like this across the porn spectrum - they took over from where the newsgroups left off (remember them - they were the best and where we got started) - we owned a few more over that period, all of which were eventually redirected and swallowed by this one as intered wanted on them. With the advent of social media, these forums became less popular as people could get more instant feedback and riffing (and without the interference of an owner or moderator). There is still a place for forums like this, but in competition with Twitter which allows little moderation and plenty of porn (don't expect that to last forever) and Reddit, it's not competitive ... although that may come again.

    That's okay. Sometimes the non-answers are as revealing as the answers.

    I don't understand why anyone could be upset by the Threads being deleted. It's all out there surely if you want .

    Sometimes folks think that it's not even worth their time and effort to provide an answer.

    This is not nice or polite. If you interact with members, telling them out saying “since you don’t pay you don’t have rights” sounds quite annoying, to say the least.
