Gosh I would have love to see Crystal Greenvelle before her retirement do 20+ DP, DA, DV and TP scenes to treasure in my collection but it never happened and I'm mad at it because I thought she could have been given more incentive to do it but hey life goes on.
I hope Giorgio continues to read our complains and ideas when he has time or simply read the ones attached to the commenting system of paid scenes if he is concerned that the forum has many leeches on it. I admit not to use that commenting system but if I see directors interacting with that system then that is the one I would use because I have spent a lot of money on LP purchasing everything I want to see. So the free ticket system is a waste for a member like me.
Thanks for being such a clear voice of reasonable fans here, dpc!
I haven't had the time to read all this thread and especially OP carefully yet but I think its incredible and saddening what Giorgio and Tarra have to stuff up with here!
Of course we are all entitled to critique as long as we bought the scenes or at least some of the GIO scenes, a minimum, of 10% ie. around 50, I'd say. But please, please, please...!
And just to say it once more: THANK you, Giorgio, to still come here, discuss and give everybody so much insight here! Now just a few bits and pieces:
- Numbers of new girls: EBI lists the girls they added during the given year, nothing more. Its an indicator still, but really not more - and sure not before around 2003.
- scarce newbies: Czech girls have many other options now 13 years after EU accession, Magyar girls too, but Europorn seems to forget a bit about new talent pools opening in the East, especially after EU visa free travel for Moldova and Ukraine there are new fishing grounds open indeed. Problem is agencies there are really scarce as are talent scouts. But this could change. Maybe even if TWM set up a resident somewhere out there. - Than social network agents are a pest, so much is clear. But only good work fights the sharks in the pool!
- softcore: Its a market segment outside of LP, but its a market segment still. Different users need different stuff. An agency like TWM can use that fact, LP shouldn't if they wanna keep their brand floating high.
- LP scene shoppers and fly by trailer-watcher-only critics: LP should indeed develop that commenting system and link it better to the forum. Maybe even grant forum posting option only to LP members or free ticket holders over 90tkt, i.e. former minimum 3mt long members.
- LP shopping in general: With tkt prices growing but memberships based on 2015 price levels still its increasingly difficult to satisfy my needs with the membership fees, and I think I am not the only one. For X-mas I bought a recharge of 120tkts trice and I concede I spent it on a lot of GIO scenes I didn't buy just after release because I didn't dig all girls and acts were too fancy overdone for me at times. BUT I realized I still need them in my collection, I can't do fine really without 80% of Monika Wild scenes, even if I may be tired of her at times during my ordinary LP user week. Same for Charlotte Sartre, Gabrielle Lati, Madison Rush, Anna Rey, Brittany Love and a few other girls GIO works with quite often that are not on my very top like Kira Thorn or July Sun. GIO is still the best for me and its the whole GIO work body of 2017 that makes it worthwhile in the end - at least for me!
- finally the 2007 dap-addict reference: Its your Piter 1.0 time, Giorgio, and you know what I asked you always and also that you delivered, and you delivered more than I dared to dream 10 years ago!!!
Finally, for 2018, I do wish you and Tarra to see - despite all fans abuse you and also some of your girls have to take here more often than needed - to constructive critique still and take it to your heart. Only together with your fans you can keep your project at LP on TOP and enough profitable!
