Enough with the fucking PM's. There is nothing you can't do anymore except getting access to our users privately which is not something you're supposed to have, and should have never had.

Other forums have that option and you risk ppl going to other forums now, thus alienating customers. But ok, your decision.
And: If there was a PM option still, I would at least ask you there how it was abused, how it hurt your business and how it was possible to be there for so many years - 7 all in all together! - and hasn't be a problem but now suddenly it is. But now I can't ask anymore. :( :confused:

This is why you cannot do this anywhere else. Because people like you will never like any answer except agreeing with everything you say. So big companies don't talk to you, at all. You just get fed their PR bullshit and template support replies.

You are the guy who manages to agree with me when I defend some of your tastes, just a few posts above, and then suddenly finds me arrogant because I disagree with something. And calling me arrogant when I am here on a week-end trying to answer some questions is just fucking stupid.

2 - Alternate payment methods : that's something we very much want to do. The old credit card system is rotten. Unfortunately for the adult industry it's hard to get anything else. Cryptos are pretty much the only thing.

3 - Scene tags : we are adding a large amount of new tags + making some related updates, but it will take a lot of time to tag every scene.


1- I didnt know until now, is a good news that exist this option.

2 - I never thought that this platforms put barriers with the adult industry about let use them to pay. I imagine that they think this can be about "get worse" their reputation/public opinion about let pay in this pages... or are about other reasons?

3 - Ok, thats sound cool. I know that can be an easy but long time working on it (a lot of scenes here).

Reading this with a cool head, i can make me the idea about what kind of "reasons" were decisive to remove that system.

Personally, I will not ask more about PMs
- 0% PUSSY
- INTERRACIAL
- GANGBANGS & BLOWBANGS
- TRANS
- #PayForPorn #SexWorkIsWork
- Full admiration and respect for all pornstars. I cannot be enough grateful for what you do! Each second of your performance is a treasure. Thanks you!

If you buy the dry version because you dont like piss stuff is or by error (Personally 2 times i did the mistake) and you want get the Wet version you must pay the whole wet scene when would be more logical pay the difference.

eg: 4'5 TKT Dry version, 5'5 TKT wet version.

5'5-4'5 = 1 TKT

^^This idea was brought up in a support post a while back, and I got excited when you said you'd add it. As someone who started off wary of wet scenes and now am a pretty big fan of them I would personally drop a good several tickets on this feature

xxx wrote:Okay. That's a fair point of view. I'm gonna summarize my thoughts on the topic with a few lines :

I think our scenes severely lack in eroticism. Whatever the style of the scene is. You would prefer something that looks like genuine passion and a softer style, I guess, but those would in reality more likely be fabricated than real of course. And for others, this artifice may disappoint them as they could see through it and are instead looking for an authentic experience, which is what gonzo, in some ways is, even if that means a rough "just give it to her" setup. There is a whole range of tastes and opinions out there and no one can claim that they know better. But in general, directors have to learn to capture the sexual tension, when it appears naturally, better, or to make it look more erotic than just filming a check list of specific acts.


Perfectly fair points except that you have fallen into the usual trap of stereotyping me by saying that I want "a softer style". I really don't. Basically in instances where the guys are throat-grabbing etc. all I'm saying is....maybe have them not do that at least on occasion. Everything else remains the same. Unless you're saying that there is a direct causal link between those acts and the strength of the sex action (ie that the guys can't fuck girls hard unless they are doing those domineering kind of things with their hands) then your point isn't really valid.

In fact I think the reverse of what you say is true, because you're accusing me of wanting artifice when in fact I think that the throat-grabbing etc. is mostly in itself artificial. Didn't you in fact even admit that yourself? It is all "an illusion, just for show" you said earlier. Yet now you say it's somehow essential to the hardness of your scenes. You can't have it both ways, surely?

My guess would be that you and the LP directors kind of know that by now the guys are set in their ways and asking them to change their style would be difficult. My hunch is that it's not somewhere you want to go so you kind of allow them free rein. That does work both ways as well - I doubt you could get Erik Everhard or Rycky Optimal to become rough and domineering like Dylan Brown and Mike Angelo, say, at this stage of the game. But as you have many more guys that are naturally rough (and again I cannot emphasise enough that I am only talking rough with their hands here) than are not it works against me on an odds basis if there isn't any kind of stylistic shift.

I appreciate your reply but I take it with something of a pinch of salt and cannot fail to see the inconsistencies within your commentary.
More non-manhandle scenes please. Hands away from face/neck/shoulders. Keep the girls loose, free and expressive. Don't overpower them - let them sizzle! Keep the heels on. More panties pulled to one side. More skirts/tight dresses. More 0% pussy scenes.

TheVulture, just my two cents.

Maybe you should change your critique strategy.

You sound more like a hater of certain male actors
rather than a promoter of things you like in porn.

Maybe you want to promote scenes that are exactly how you like them
so that producers see the bright side of the stuff you like, and produce more of it?

You have to realize that everytime you talk about throat grabbing things, you SOUND like a troll.

Here is my list, some of these things I have held back for years, lol.

I want to say I'll go from most important to least important,
but really, the order is as it comes to mind.

The TKT system.

Anyone has played a mobile game called "Candy Crush"?
(If you haven't, don't do it, lol)

In that game you can play for as long as you have lives,
and when you ran out, you can no longer play, unless you fork money or wait.
BUT, when you do buy extra lives, you spend tokens, that cost money.

The idea behind the tokens is that,
you are not really sure how much money you are actually spending.
the value of each token is as dubious as possible.
And because the game is addictive, you want to continue playing,
at some point, you don't really care or understand what's going on.

Sounds familiar?

If you study game development, you will learn
that game designers study how the brain works,
in particular around dopamine.

I'm not gonna go into the science, but the short of it,
is that the TKT system was sold to you, as a representation of
the investment for each scene, but that's not true.

The reality is that such systems, the tokens in candy crush or the tkt on LP,
are designed to gauge people. They exploit your brain to make you pay, ludicrous amounts of money.

Ludicrous relative to similar enterprises in the market.

That's really not what bothers me, lol.

Being exploited like that.

What bothers me, is XXX saying things like "we are barely making a profit here"
while buying out entire porn companies, in our faces, DDF and Bangbros,
and on top of that selling scenes that are 10 years old, at prices
that completely don't make sense, when your story was "tkt represent the cost of scenes"

I have always seen it as a "dick move" and not "pro consumer" at all.

Yellow watermarks on videos.

With most retail movies available in 720p. Hollywood movies blue-rays, Netflix slightly better 1080p, etc

What is really the point of 4K porn movies?,
bombarded with yellow stains all over the place.
In particular, on the female of the scene.

Why spend so much money on a nice 70'' 4k TV, expensive Fiber line, expensive porn subscription,
When every single video is ruined, lol.

I could somewhat understand when LP was the "new kid in the block", but now?

Who else, with the market share of LP, is doing this?
Are those companies dying?

If anything, Brazzers seems to be getting further ahead.

Legalporno.com watermark size and placement.

It's just wrong. Nuuff said

I'm gonna pause here, want to see if I get banned, post deleted, or what?

Maybe all of these things change for the better?
hahaha who am I kidding.

The ticket prices on the recently added Private scenes seem to be calculated by some kind of random ticket price allocator.

It is undeniable that this website has more paying members than ever; more scene sales than ever but somehow they just cannot turn a penny without charging more per scene than ever before. I can live with it for new quality content but for a scene dumped on here from another studio that was made four years ago, how the hell can it be sensibly priced at 8 tickets???

I just cannot get my head around that.

Buying a scene with an alternate version and not being able to upgrade for the price difference : I have asked the devs quite a while back to allow that. It will be possible, eventually.

I have read TheVulture's well reasoned comments and can't understand why he is repeatedly misunderstood. He is just asking for that the manhandling genre do not spill over into every scene.

I am not buying manhandling scenes. I don't care if it is consensual or that the girls like it. I just don't find it arousing. I am ok that this genre exist for those who have this preference, but let's have more love making scenes with less violence. I think a scene could be even more nasty when you have interplay between very horny people trying to please each others more extreme desires. It doesn't become soft core just because you skip throat grabbing.
Can we have guys licking the girls' anal gapes Mike Adriano style, while the girls are pissing, please!

xxx wrote:Hey, let's hear what you think we are doing wrong, what should be changed, adjusted, etc. Fair critics with arguments only please.


Porn is a kind of art. And in art, it's not a matter of right or wrong. It's a matter of better or worse. And even better or worse is relative to the interests and the desires of the audience. What's better for one audience, might be worse for another.

So, you first need to know the main interests and desires of your audience, before you can even talk about what's better or worse for it.

I think it's fair to say that anal porn-fans are the ones LegalPorno is serving. Because even when this website shows a pussy-only lady, then you have fans here asking right away, when she will let the anal guys pound away. Ass and anal is the main thing the LegalPorno audience wants.

So, this website needs to be careful about showing pussy-only ladies, who only tease but never please the anal guys. Teasing is okay. But the lady eventually needs to spread her nice ass for the anal guys. Or else it's a disappointment for the audience here.

This website is one of the best for catering to the anal audience. Because most ladies here are pretty good at spreading their cheeks for anal dicks. And the male studs here are real ass-masters and anal sex-fiends between the cheeks of a lady. Any lady who spreads her nice ass for these guys is bound to get it good between her cheeks. But all of this talent goes to waste, when the lady is pussy-only with her guys.

So, my suggestion for this website is to make sure that every lady shown here eventually spreads her cheeks for anal dicks. Or else this is teasing without pleasing for the LegalPorno audience.

Hi XXX
First of all thanks for your answer thats a really cool news for us as customers and i think its a necesary step for this website. I know this is not a priority update for LP but... your words means a lot for some of us knowing this update will be some day.

I want to ask another question if you dont mind: i know sometimes im a really stresfull person when i ask for scenes but... i would like to know whats the status or what happened with some really old Gonzo scenes that weren't released, are them lost?, are them planned to be released ... weren't these scene numbers filmed? Just a simple answer is enough for me and maybe for other users, here it is the list:

SZ515
SZ704
SZ707
SZ716
SZ750
SZ769
SZ790

Again, thanks for your time :cool:

I checked the first 2 quickly and they are on the server and at least some of the files are playable. Our guy will look more closely and answer you.


Hi XXX:

Again million thanks for your answer, ill wait the necessary time about this answer or when you finally decide to release them ;)

Another question related to Gonzo Studio: Do you think that is possible to introduce some kind of "stories" or you know... some plot on some scenes to give it variety from time to time? I know you have commented that sometimes the scenes are "flat" because basically their structure is the same on all of them, I understand that you cannot set a story in each of the scenes, but if it would be good to give it a touch of variety from time to time, because to be honest, many times you think that you have seen the same one over and over again even being a girl for whom you pay the price that is to see her scene. This is more related to your director Luis, please, I would like you to ask him in some way for a change (im not asking for a new location or other big change just a plot that introduce the scene a big diferent its being done right now...) if possible.

About this thread, thats what users wants to see, communication between web's staff and their custommers, I understand that certain questions cannot or should not be answered (related to the business for example) but there are questions that are being asked now and were being asked for a long time and nobody got the answer that you are giving now. Giorgio is pretty active on it and we also thank him for all the information he gives us with his posts related to his studios or other pornstars questions but now is more related with all the web and you are the head manager of it and we have never seen you so active and I think it is a good sign to regain the union between users and staff.

Again, thanks for your time.

I love that this is quickly becoming another "THE CONTENT IS NOT THE EXACT CONTENT THAT I WANT IT TO BE" thread

xxx I just remembered, before we moved everything to Pornbox there was an option to filter scenes for a certain amount of tickets and unless I can't find it it's not on Pornbox. While I can understand why one might remove this feature it was pretty handy

Hey ginger,
That option is still there if you’re adding scenes to your wish list.
When you select your wish list in your library the ticket slider appears.
Handy feature indeed.

Not a huge deal but if you add more content that was originally released on VHS or DVD like Private if you can make the searchable by the original release name it would be nice. Like "Matador Anal Psycho-Analysis " etc

@XXX I would like to see scenes in the style of Jean Yves Le Castel movies like: "Ass wide open", "Matador", "Debauchery".

Important things from his movies are interaction between actor and actress, fun, ass worship etc.

Hello, there is unfinished footage for SZ515, SZ704 and SZ790. It will be released the way we did Belle Clair pee scene attempt. Rest of the scenes do not exist.

Content is the main attraction of any porn website, including this one. Because even if everything else besides content is perfect, but the content isn't something consumers like, then the website won't do well.

So, content should be the main topic of discussion in a thread like this. But I agree that it's more useful to talk about content in a positive way, rather than negative. People should be saying what they like in the content and asking for more of the same. Because quite often it's the hottest part of the scene that lasts 5-10 minutes is what gets you off and makes your day. And you still like the scene, even if the rest of it isn't so good.

I think it's important to identify what part of a scene gets off porn-fans especially well and why. Because if you know and understand what and why, then you can do more of this in other future scene. This is an effective way to improve content for consumers. Because this is using feedback from consumers to give them more of what they like.

Quite often a scene is popular not just because it shows some hot sex-acts, but also because the lady is popular among guys, and they want to see more of her. So, my suggestion for this website is to make the lady's pay for her scene proportional to the number of views her scene gets. Because this will motivate the hottest chicks to take on the hardest dicks and get their nice asses nailed really well.

It makes sense to pay the lady more, when she produces greater value for consumers. Because this encourages her and other ladies like her to do even more and better. And in the end, everybody wins. Everybody gets more of what they want. Consumers get to see the hottest ladies get nailed really, really well. These ladies get paid more for putting out more. And the porn-maker also makes more money, because consumers will flock to watch the hottest ladies take hard cock.

Profit-sharing is the way to motivate the hottest chicks take on the hardest dicks inside their nice asses, and not just their pussies.

Well it's definitely not an illusion that I see Angelo Godshack wrapping his bicep around the girl's neck in every single scene he's in, is it? Or that pretty much every scene has a lot of throat-grabbing in it. I'm not approaching this from a "white knight" kind of angle as I get that a lot of girls are into that stuff and probably the majority that aren't don't too much mind it. And I'm not suggesting that it isn't done in a "relaxed" way. My point is purely a visual one, namely that it turns me off as I like to see strong women in porn and I don't understand why it is a default thing (ie not just in manhandle scenes).

For sure, it is a common meme in porn these days and not everyone will agree with me that it should be toned down. But saying it is "just an illusion, just a show" isn't going to stop me being turned off by it. I see it and know what it is and generally have to fast forward through it. My point is that if you left that stuff out of your non-manhandle scenes they would be 15%-20% hotter as the girls would sizzle a lot more. Ultimately it boils down to how your viewers like their porn girls - strong and in control or more a kind of sexual prey at the mercy of dominant men. Both are valid porn styles but I'm in the former camp and whatever its other virtues, I am thus pretty much not catered for by LP. I have to accept some lessening of "hot" with my "hard", which I feel is a shame as I don't see why LP scenes cannot more frequently be both.

Okay. That's a fair point of view. I'm gonna summarize my thoughts on the topic with a few lines :

I think our scenes severely lack in eroticism. Whatever the style of the scene is. You would prefer something that looks like genuine passion and a softer style, I guess, but those would in reality more likely be fabricated than real of course. And for others, this artifice may disappoint them as they could see through it and are instead looking for an authentic experience, which is what gonzo, in some ways is, even if that means a rough "just give it to her" setup. There is a whole range of tastes and opinions out there and no one can claim that they know better. But in general, directors have to learn to capture the sexual tension, when it appears naturally, better, or to make it look more erotic than just filming a check list of specific acts.

Agree, xxx. I like it rough and if it is, or at least looks, genuine, I find it hot, otherwise it's better to give up.[/quote]
+1 and more!!
I like rough too and I think most times (if not always) when it takes place it seems (to me) that both models(man and woman who doing it) they are enjoying it to the bone. Many couples nowadays, even amateur couples are getting to a far more aggressive sex scenes with man being the dominant figure (even in an excessive way) and the woman being the submissive and it is 100% consensual and seems to be what they really want to do. They can reach such an extreme level that most observant may find it disturbing if not appalling. I think this is a misconception that TheVulture user gets when this kind of action happens to a scene. What I mean is that, it's not all about expression of the egomania and the domination of the man over the woman like an end to itself. It's about how they BOTH perceive the act of fucking and they adore their roles as they are. Of course misunderstandings may take place and women may not like all that aggression in more than few cases. I would also find it horrible if I get the idea that this is really happening and would be a huge turn-off. I have no doubt that this may also happen in PL and in any porn but I trust that production will know when that may happen and will never reach the point to release a scene where the female model was dominated unwillingly. For me, passion in a porn movie (and even maybe to your real sex life) can be inextricably linked with a dominant-submissive role between the participants and various degrees. On the other hand, if you truly have an erotic passion and lively feelings about your partner, then you will be able to act in many roles with her and still receiving tones of pleasure with it. Even if it is just vanilla action or touching noses :)

So whats happening than? :confused:

And again: Communication, best before sth new is imposed, often against old loyal customer and LP forum supporter interest! :( :confused:

So what happened there is that the devs thought they had found a bug when they realized that not only Gonzo scenes were available for free tickets, and "corrected it". It's such an old feature that they didn't remember how it worked. Other studios are available again now.

However, this is an old logic that was fine when we started and gave away maybe a third of the catalog that way, but now, it's 80% that is available for free tickets. That's too much.

Thanks for answer and solution, xxx, that's really appreciated! :) :cool:
I also see the problem, but I guess there is very little members in that old ticket option left.
If its really too many scenes available and too many free tickets around and used especially by ex-subscribers not old loyal since many year ones, you might consider up-ping the free ticket price or give them a chance to exchange old free tickets for new premium tickets at a good and fair rate for both sides. I still believe loyalty should be honored, though. LP would have grown that big without loyal customers.
Anyway, again, thanks for sntqureing and solving! :)


Btw, now next wish would be just at least to understand why we have no PM anymore, i.e. how it was abused against your biz interests. No details, just as much as to understand your sudden step. I say this because it still stirs quite some malcontent here.

shoot more medium distance shots, ie composition that includes BOTH ends of the girl simultaneously. And do the shot LONGER



Both ends obviuosly inludes feet .

I see that LP has improved in that regard and listened to our requests ( foot patrol ) , but as you say , some of these shots are too short , sometimes below 10 seconds .

Here's what I discovered about foot fetish from directing anal scenes.

First of all, it's a very common fetish, but not everyone is into it. It could limit your audience if you focus too much on it. For sure, if you advertise a scene heavily as a foot fetish scene, you're limiting your audience, but if you put foot fetish content in an otherwise normal scene, it slips by more easily.

Secondly, anticipation really heightens the impact of foot fetish. You want to sprinkle it throughout the scene in little doses, rather than bombarding the viewer with constant foot fetish stuff. That's way more effective because you never know when it's going to happen in the scene and brain gets to experience that dopamine rush several times instead of just once.

Thirdly, when you do decide to focus on the feet in an anal scene, poses are almost always better than foot play because they don't disrupt the anal action. This would not be true in a proper foot fetish scene, but in an anal scene, you never want to take focus away from anal sex for any extended length of time. Most foot play (like footjobs, toe sucking, etc) grinds the other action to a halt, so if you really want to do it, you should only do it at the beginning of the scene during the "warm-up" (before the anal starts), or at the end of the scene when the guys are cumming.

Well in missionary and pile drive anal especially a second girl or also a second stud can easily also suck the toes of the ass-fucked girl.
I do agree however, that this should be an additional side-fetish offer, and never distract from the main anal fetish.
Btw, did you ever shoot also highheel fetish scenes?
Could be open heels, barefoot not stockinged feet.

^^^

Thanks for the insights from an insider perspective .

Ok , I accept that a real foot-fetish might make the scene less attractive for uninterested viewers ; so I like the tactic to sprinkle some elements here and there .

But I think everyone can gain when the parts where the whole body is shown during Dp/airtight are much longer than 10 seconds .

Back then I had hunted down all JYL dvds, also his German, Italian and even Spanish ones.
Those were good nostalgic gape-friendly times! :D
I'd love every LP director study JYL work and copy some of his ideas, also that light mood and the chemistry director had with girls! :)

Would be really great if that happens. The great thing about those movies where the atmosphere and chemistry on set between actors and actresses. What I also liked on those movies was that ass worshipping. Jean-Yves and his mates lubed up and stretch the girls asses as a kind of foreplay that was also very hot and enjoyable to watch. Ad you mentioned the guys and directors at LP should watch a couple of his movies, learn from it and implent some things in LP movies!

Too bad that guy stopped performing and directing!

There was a moment during a shoot I did a year ago when one of the male actors yelled it out as a joke. None of the other guys knew WTF he was even talking about. This particular male actor was a veteran who had actually done a few JYL videos, though, and he knew exactly what I expected from that shot.
