Standardization for trailers

[brian6902]

With more and more new studios being added to Pornbox, there's been a serious decline in trailer quality. And by decline, I mean non-existence. So many of these "off-brand" studios don't make any trailer at all, and just play the first 30 or so seconds of the scene, which generally consists of a title card, and the camera panning on some random environment. They show absolutely nothing indicating what kind of content will be in the scene.

I understand it's a little bit of extra effort to edit together a trailer, but there should be some kind of minimum requirements for being able to post videos on Pornbox. It's in a studio's best interest anyways, since I pretty much will never buy a scene that doesn't have an actual trailer, since I'd like to actually know what I'm purchasing.

You know what they say; wish in one hand, shit in the other. See which one fills up first.....

Been mentioned before, been brushed off before as non important or even worthy of caring. About a year ago or maybe more, I wrote in support forum or made support ticket. The reply just blamed the content producer. So yes your ideas are valid and would be a good thing for all if put in to action. However in my almost 10yrs around this place I've gotten the feeling the "higher up's" look at customer service like this; Customer service? What's that? Nope, you'll take what I give, and accept all I do. Even when they listen to fans/customers, it's never really that, just something close enough to be insulting, always a little or a lot less than what was wanted. Take for example; there's been a steady demand for VR for maybe 2yrs now. Not always threads dedicated to it, but heavily mentioned in posts all over. So what do they do? Put VR clips for sale in the store, but not LP/AV style scenes. Just some shitty ones being licensed to them. So there ya go....
2-3+yrs ago there was a MAJOR shift in content produced and other BIG far reaching changes to many things, that were all in all pretty negatively received. Replies from producers/owners/moderators sent the obvious message that they don't give a FUCK about their LOYAL many year subscribing customers, and were now focused on the new customers (more likely to be younger or newer porn viewers not as knowledgeable as the several year customers). They obviously did the math, and figured more to be made than lost and went ahead with it. Also to only make the most money every time, which inherently lends itself to VERY formulamatic scene production, which is appropriate as that's all it is to them, a mathematical formula to make the most money every time, every scene.
It's pretty much at the point of being told to fuck off, but first give me your money (cry poor while doing so), then spit in your face... Evident by sheer LAZYNESS of not being able to add performers names to titles (Yummy a few times 5-9 days ago) or even continuing to number scenes, which literally takes no thinking/creativity/brain power... It takes care of it's self. Maybe not a big deal to some, maybe a bigger deal to others. I'll just say this; On a models profile page (I forget who, possibly Kristy Black) I've seen literally the SAME EXACT title, SAME males, with almost same outfit. Now how would one tell difference between them with out numbers?
This place has ALWAYS been the WORST at titling scenes, I mean ZERO creativity. If the 'tards over at Brazzers can do it, how hard can it be for fucks sake????

Rant over, sorry. The first paragraph only is really an appropriate reply, my bad...
But yes I agree.
I mean really, if they set minimum standards to be met for eligibility to be on PornBox "clip" store it would put the burden on the content producers to make the trailer and LP/AV wouldn't have to hire new people or have current employees do more. And you would think that it would help sell WAY more then what could be selling now, almost a guarantee. But I'll always remember a statement by XXX himself regarding the absurdly high price of scenes that were 5-10yrs old being re-released here after recently acquiring and it basically said (i'm paraphrasing here) "I'd rather have a few customers at that price than MANY at a lower price, cuz a lower price doesn't necessairly mean more sales. I want the customers that the money is no object for them, that want the scenes and will pay what-ever for them. They're gonna buy regardless"
That told me ALL I needed to know about him (as a business man) and his his ideals and what this place would end up being....

Whelp, that lines up with the fact that a recent fairly mediocre looking and short scene with Kate Rich costs 33.3 tkts, and has been that price for over a week, indicating it isn't a glitch.

Milking is at a very high level, and not just here. The approaching hyper inflation is hitting everywhere. Higher prices buy you less, and the quality suffers as well. So much tip fucking, spitting, fake cream pies, lack of ATM, ATOGM, editing ATM, faking(aka movie magic), circus sex... the list just goes on. I mean, look at the self promoting wonder toy series. 5tix for something that should really be how the girls warm up at the start of the scene. So I am sitting on my tix atm, waiting for the madness to pass. I suppose, once I hit around 250tix, I will cancel the recurring subscription, but not much else I can do. The only bright spot is Yummy e studio, where it looks like the girls may actually get fucked properly, the only drawback is complete lack of good piss drinking.
