POLL: Directors posts and customer-care on forum

Let me see what users feel: Which LP director discusses most constructive with forum users and later tries to pick-up some suggestions and get them enacted in his/her porn videos?

I've noticed that recently also Russian directors started to discuss in forum. Really nice! :)
One the other hand activity of old LP studio directors went very much down in pandemic times. A real pity.

Anyway, please be also aware that probably only Mr. Ananas from Pineapples Test Kitchen is of english mother tongue. Thus sometimes it is indeed difficult to get all those users wishes right. And its not only about language, because we all have google translate! But also patience, and putting up with the constant pressure put on by more and more demanding of fixated users.

Please choose from these directors talking to us currently.
Lets the past be past! Than Joachim Kessef as very active of some time for instance, but focus on here and now!

Luis (gonzo.com + Yummy Estudio)
Omar / Mexican Motherfucker (gonzo.com)
Petra (girls recruitment for gonzo.com)
Oskar Batty (actor, influencer for GIO, gonzo, N&F)
Giorgio Grandi (GIO and GLab Prague)
Robin Reid (GLab Barcelona, GLab Prague, GIO)
Mr. Ananas (Pineapples Test Kitchen: https://pornbox.com/application/studio/118)
Florane Russell (N&F)
Valter Karo (VK, Russia)
Nick Rock (NRX, Russia)

Some of the mentioned directors wanting to be elected here and hopefully win that user-friendliness award at work (while the actors and actresses work as well of course):

Although she’s been quiet lately, this year so far Florane is the one most visible while also trying to get a feel for what we as customers would like to see. From outfits to scene ideas and inbetween.
Behind her I mention Oscar and Robin. Not so much for specific scenes but they inject themselves in the community by making interesting posts.

The guys from the Russian studios are trying too, hopefully they will keep it up.
Gonzo and Gio studios in my eyes are very quiet. Too bad since they are arguably still the main/biggest studios on this platform. :confused:

I read and I take noted when necessary.
In the past I interacted more, it is true, but I do not like to argue to explain I have a different point of view

I think it's good when directors and staff post something here, and sometimes even listen a bit. But I don't see it as a competition for someone to win.

Giorgio said some fans posting in the forum are argumentative - I think also too many fans are rude, ignorant, entitled and completely self-obsessed.

So I don't think it's a surprise that directors, staff and models don't venture more often into the forum to interact with fans.

I think we could all learn more from each other if there was more interaction, and if we fans generally show more respect to the people who actually work in the industry.

First it has to be said that only thanks to Giorgio's posts in the past fans have a clue how it works really. Giorgio explained so many things here. Incredible resource of BTS! :) :cool:

Later he probably got shied aways a bit by some fans, sadly.
This poll is about present, if it was about past than Giorgio Grandi would win 1:100.

Its not a competition really this poll, I just want to motivate directors to take part and do it in a good not empty way. Valter Karo for instance is here often now, but I usually see just "thanks for your post" posts. Thats better than nothing, but its not what it is about. Please directors take all an example with GIO in 2018/19 here!

Great initiative DAP-addict.

I agree with awanfurwet, we as forum writers need to be more empathic and polite or no one will listen. I guess it is difficult because porn attracts so many people of different kind, from juvenile or frustrated to mature and considerate.

There is no reason to argue. Make a statement and let that be it. We do not need to come to a conclusion or an agreement. It is helpful just to know our different points of view.

I am one of those who are curious about the whole business, from how it is done by whom and how they think or plan, both from business and art perspective. I guess I am too intellectual or nerdy but hey others could be totally obsessed with a performer. I am at least able to distinguish a hobby from a personal engagement.

I have gained most insight from reading Mr.Ananas

Giorgio has certainly explained or tried to explain what he felt we could know. I totally agree with you on that. The problem in my view is however that just part of the people posting has taken any note of that. The rest keeps making argumentative and sometimes plain rude comments. In that respect I agree with avanfurwet that it’s not really a big surprise directors/performers eventually just stop posting.

I voted for Florane, Oscar and Giorgio. Florane is really commited with her job as an Actress/Director, she's doing such a great job. You can tell that Oscar loves his job, his youtube channel is pure gold. Giorgio is my favorite director, but probably at this point, his fan base is that huge, so he doesn't need to interact that much here in the forum :S.

We are always curious of what the professional points of view are, and if someone disagrees with you, then fuck them, they don't matter, you are the director, and you do what you want.

If you have a different point of view of what I have it doesn't matter, I'm totally cool with that, but we still get curious of what the director thinks.

I'm a photographer, so there are always many differences with other photographers, and it is all good because everyone does what they want to do, and that's all that matters.
