You think wrong, once again . . . Thumb down

btw. it is not nice to denounce somebody who is not able to defend himself at this place anymore . . . for whatever reasons

rotate is probably a native speaker in this forum and the one you are writing about is far away from a native speaker.
so you can read your post as a post to yourself. Smile

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

Well, posting in the ETV area has decreased in quantity over the past few months but what of the quality?
That, I feel, is for the individual to decide ...
There are two occurrences which have come to my notice over this period.
Taking the most recent first:
The sudden need to be heard from the previously quiet 'cris-cris'. This has been remarked upon elsewhere but it does seem rather odd to wait over 2½ years before passing comment on virtually every model in a matter of days.
Secondly, the contribution of 'rotate13' (rotate13 = rot13 = a modified Ceasar cipher: a pretty useless way of hiding what you mean)
Joined us at the end of August and has been stirring since the word go.
The writing style and confidence makes me think he has done this before, so perhaps an 'old friend' has reinvented himself and come back to haunt us ...

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

I see some positive sides

1- The longstanding endless discussion around the Web project has been decreased ...That's a very good point ..

2- The return of some of the well-established members again ..after a long period of disappearance ....

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

Well, to my mind, things are looking up.
The 'General Discussion' thread has seen a deep and meaningful Tongue discussion although the opposing views were so deeply entrenched there was never going to be a resolution ... but that's what made it so fascinating.
Whether it has been down to extra efforts from the moderators or a re-evaluation of some members status, the name calling and deliberate provocation seems to be on the decrease.
So the problem now is what is there to discuss? Is there a major topic on ETV's horizon? Will all the members predicting the demise of ETV for the last 2, 3, 4 years finally be right?
It sees to me that the state of the forum very closely follows the state of ETV. They have gone through a period of disruption, change, realignment, reinvention ... and, as has been pointed out elsewhere, if they disappear, so do we ...

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

I think I can agree, nighthawk .. I say I think only because now I doubt about the effectiveness of the translator web! Big Grin but i agree... Given that, in my post of two days ago, it is understood the opposite of what I wanted to say Confused .. cause, I repeat for another time, I don't think this forum is boring.. only hvb said that! And I respect him and that he wrote.. but, starting from that, I tried to bring my reasons, as a member, and therefore bearer of boredom, according to him.. with bad results, I know.. anyway, not a problem.. probably you don't agree with that my post in general and, for me, that was a reason that I would understood more easily, honestly .. but it is obvious that, first, it was my duty to explain me better! Unfortunately it is not successful!... Confused

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

Hi Community

Why should this forum be boring?
Concerning ETV it isn't easy to write true facts here. All those are in the so named "No Man's Land" or what I mean with "The Invisible Border".
It could be still inside the rules or already outside. Sure, I think all what said in the channel (TV Shows) could be commented, couldn't it ?
What a pity the most I'm reading here, in the most of time, are complainings from members they say:
"The show was boring" and "I would never spend a cent for ETV". I don't go confirm with their decission but respect it and will never attack anyone for this point of view.
Only let me give the hint: "From Nothing Nothing Comes"

I only ask myself one question:

What do I (we, some of us, the most of us, all of us) expect ? Nakedness and mu...ies, the whole time ? Is it this ?
I think everone of us has a different meaning of this and why not. I would like to note only this little thing:
To see "mu...ies" without a face, without a soul, we all can go to the Internet, it's crowded with it.
A p...y is a p...y, and is always looking similar. That's boring for me. Nice tender interacting, for example is a good doing (IMHO).

Before I come to the end, let me note this:

Some time a different opinion seems like an offense for some one.
Maybe it chooses the wrong words or doesn't know it better because of being English isn't the native language.
Concerning myself, I like this place and I know, not all are riding on my wave. Important is I have never felt unfairness here in the forum.
Sure it should be a place to discuss only ETV and the other live-show-channels, on the other hand it is nice to have such a great extension
like the music and sports area or technical questions and answers. So it increases the education a bit Big Grin

Under the summary line, the forum isn't boring, write your opinion and let's stay polite.
Let's talk about the things as far as possible and the tone makes the sound, or

How it goes into the forest so it echoes back

Some time imperfection makes the charm and shows that people works there and no robots.

Best Regards

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

Of course, I do not want convince you to go to agree with my posts, but.. excuse me, in really friend way.. you extrapolated a sentence where I use the conditional, and a definition of boring which has a well-defined derivation . Of course, write in English takes my confidence. and also the biting irony that only a few have received .. my fault .. no problem, but the meaning of my post, unfortunately, was in all other words, where I did not use a sarcastic conditional! I apologize for keeping you think you can be boring, but that in truth it was written here previously by others!!! mine was a reply in this way: "we are boring?Ok .. see why, if it is true, if is really our fault... etc...". I'm a little surprised, however, that when hvb quietly called boring this forum, he is gone unnoticed...!!! And with no conditional...!!! For me it is not .. but it is clear that there are many people here bored, tired, disappointed or angry, whose don't post no more thoughts also for their favourite models, or in other usually busy topics .. and my humble POV is written in the post .. that sentence included, and you can see that I don't touch noone members, mods, videomaker or the same forum!! .. in friendship ..

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

I lost a bit of time looking at the number of posts related to the topics of the 3 Etv forums, d/c ls v/c.. In October, compared to the months immediately preceding, there are on average 20% less posts, in d /c the percentage is much higher, despite the return of Sabrina and other, in spite of some new, although some models that continue to make decent or good shows (I would avoid terms such as exceptional and unforgettable ..) and despite Gia, without being there, has also received many posts.. Of course the quality is better than quantity.. but.. not always!! From Etv and its shows are not born many ideas for new threads or pov .. at least, imho, only for complain quite understandable and shareable, or for some bitter laugh reading the ETV-Wall .. I probably did not consider that paying the subscription to the Web, everything looks incredibly beautiful and positive .. it must be so!! I feel like a stupid in my stubbornness to don't pay it, despite the realization that happiness goes all from there!! And instead, I stay here to increase the boredom of this forum. Maybe boredom is especially me! But when a forum is so closely linked to something (to the shows of Etv, in this case) it is much easier that boredom are not us (me excluded .. I like being boring ..) but it is transmitted, in any sense, by the subject on which we base our discussions .. also because, said clearly, the transmission more naked and uncensored that Etv does, is to transmit of the primary desire to make money, inventing solutions precarious, exaggerating the problems of censorship, throwing bait unlikely ( see Bruce and other requests by "users" on Etv-Wall). This is the real transmission, the real show of Etv .. web, NS, are only a parody .. this is just my poor stupid opinion, but it's almost sickening, now or also in this year ( and not only.. ), to ask a question on the forum and define it negatively when, departing, the object and the subject of the discussion, Etv, affects this forum in a negative way with their negatives ways.. If Etv give us to drink a type of wine, we could discuss a lot about it, regardless of whether it is fine or not .. certainly we would find many shades, talking .. a forum is based on that!!! but they give us tap water .. and Etv or who for them, if exists, expects that we close our eyes and we play to be a sommelier with a stupid tap water??? It's therefore natural that this forum can be boring.. natural like the tap water, just right!

Good Halloween all..

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

My 5 cents.
We are here to share our thoughts, opinions as well as our emotions about (erotic) liveshows. And yes it`s sometimes hard to accept other views than mine but at least we all should try to respect them.
Certainly it isn`t a reason to fight each other. Personal attacks make me sad and angry and everybody should make a retrograde step before he writes a too emotional commentBlush. Please let`s have fun and reduce the attacks.Cool

Actually it's difficult with facts and information, even more difficult with information you don't have yet ;)
If it's public it's not new anymore, if it's not public then it's not allowed to post.
In Germany we say it's a cat chasing it's tail.
And where's no information there's speculation, rumors and conspiracy theories.

So you can insult us but of course a reply is a personal insult? either stop reading LSTV or expect replies you don't agree with! mine was a reply to your attack on us so no different, apart from mine was true Smile

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

I can't disagree ..You are right in this regard .

But on the other hand I also can't stand the other who considers that ETV should always stay as it has always been ...a closed circle with a very limited numbers of the luckers .

And Always believe ....that the complainers should never get to the same seat where they are ...neither on ETV ...Nor here in the live forum

For sure There are a rules for the forum which must be followed ….and there is a common sense in which we should all come in the same line with it …

But I think there is one important concept which we all should agree on it ....we all should accept the others as they are as long as they don't break the rules of the forum .

Re: The state of the forum (ETV)

This is off topic, so the mods should move some posts to appropriat topics.

Discussing strategies doesn't mean making them. It's mostely questioning them and ask for explanations for decissions.
Sometimes the arguments are convincing or at least understandable, sometimes I differ on them.
So just a normal discussion.
Maybe sometimes they even pick up some ideas, but in the end, it's still their channel, not mine and I remain just a viewer.
But what I can't stand is the folks presenting opinion as fact.
