Yeah, but as we know, real spanking is a specialist thing. On the other hand they do have some good Black Mirror stuff. I think they have a better selection of fetish per video than any of the bigger dvd download sites.

There are a few of us here who really love this site, not least because of its great customer service. The difference between American Vice, and the big sites who really couldn't care less about customer service, as they probably consider themselves far too big to worry about customers, is enormous. The great customer service, along with the variety and quality of videos, makes it one of my favourites.

Great review. This looks like a tremendous site as I prefer hardcore to soft. As soon as 21st Sextury officially open Anal Teen Angels I think this will be the next company I sign up with.

This looks like a good bunch of sites, especially with the discount available through TBP. I have always liked John Stagliano (Buttman). It's sad that he caught HIV but I guess that's one of the dangers of the industry. Jay Sin is great too. I love his milk enema stuff.

It's simple. If a site tries to rip you off, don't subscribe. I will not subscribe to a site that has regional discrimination. Boycotting this sort of thing is the only thing that will make them rethink. I hate fake breasts and tattos anyway so there's no way I would join this site, but everyone has their own taste. There are plenty of sites I would like to join but wont because of regional discrimination. If someone sticks a middle finger up to me I tell them to f**k off. That's how I feel about regional discrimination.

It's one of my favourite sites. Great value for money and customer service. I know Porn.com does a special offer to PU/TBP for $9.95 but you may have a lot of that stuff already. Hope you get some money together soon. Good luck.

As a quick follow up to the review and because I do like to get things right, I would like to add that Mr. M finally makes a few appearances in the new studio clips. Not before time, and the whole site goes down the plughole.

Real Spankings

| Status: |
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
|
| Pros: |
There is a model index.
They have an updates calendar.
Most of the models are attractive girl next door types (or would be if the girl next door ever really looked like that).
A massive catalogue of material to choose from.
Old and experienced site with a good reputation, and reliable billing agents, so you shouldn't be risking your money.
They do have photos.
No DRM.
No download limit.
No regional discrimination for subscribers.
Very good value at $21.95.
The clips are quite often filmed in real time, without too many cuts or unnatural breaks.
There are usually 2 camera angles. One for the girl's ass, and one for the face. |
| Cons: |
Poor and confusing navigation, although it has improved in the past year.
The videos are even at the highest 700 kb/sec rate, not great quality by today's standards. Some of the old clips are very poor quality.
No WMV, only a choice of Flash Player or Real Media.
The clips have watermarks that can sometimes be obtrusive and annoying.
The best spankers have disappeared. The more recent productions have been weak.
They went nearly 2 years without new material, relying mostly on what had already been shot, while they waited to move to a new studio.
Not that many models, few new ones recently. So you see the same faces, (or whatever) a lot of the time.
Far too many clothed spankings, especially in recent years.
Being American the cane is hardly ever used, and then only very lightly.
The photos are posed, and not from the actual spanking clip.
Too much talking.
Some of the clips are cut up into ridiculously short segments, sometimes straight down the middle of the action. |
| Bottom Line: |
Bottom line - very appropriate given the niche.
I was last a member of this site about a year ago. I rejoined because my computer got a virus and all my files were wiped out. I wouldn't have joined for the more modern clips. The best spankers Lady D left long ago, and Mr M is not to be seen, most of the time.
The recent clips I find far too light and usually with the model partially or fully clothed. I find this boring. The old clips are by far the best, but the drawback is the quality is quite poor on a lot of these. They are redoing some of them in a new bit rate of 700kb/sec.
The picture quality and sound has improved over the years as the content quality has decreased IMO.
Here is roughly the bit rate over the years.
2001 - 75kb/sec
2002 - 150 kb/sec. Some clips redone in 750kb/sec or 350 kb/sec from here onwards.
2003 - 225 or 450kb/sec.
2004 - 225 or 450kb/sec.
2005 - 225 or 450kb/sec
2006 - 350/700 kb/sec mostly from here.
Despite all the negatives I would still recommend this site as the No.1 choice for anyone who is interested in spanking but has never joined a spanking website. Some other sites deliver harder spankings, but here they are usually around moderate severity, which is reasonably safe, and almost old fashioned, for those who have an interest in this sort of thing. It is not my favourite spanking site because of all the negatives, but I still find it good value. It is almost the Video Box of the spanking world. It is like finding a 3 story warehouse of spanking clips. If you are looking for a clip in particular, it is quite hard to find. At least they have a reasonable model directory and calendar of updates. Last year I would have said this site has the worst navigation in the known universe, with the one exception of my girlfriend's map reading, but things have improved a little. The site now looks like something from the 21st century. A lot of faults, but is worth a look given the price. |

Thanks for the info. It's a site I have considered joining for about 4 years! I never did because there always seems to be a better site about, and because I am mainly a hardcore vid person rather than softcore pic person. The site still sounds pretty good though. As you say, I gotta check it out once.

6 to 10. I am presuming it isn't just porn sites. If it were just porn sites it would be 2-5.

Thanks for the info Reg. It's nice to know it's not just us in the UK suffering. There's some strange stuff happening out there at the moment. I don't want to get too harsh about Video Box, but when I was a member last year I had speeds down to 1kb/sec! That site is still my worst by far, for download speeds, but I do get a slow download on a lot of sites now at those peak times.
I guess you noticed the review by Messmer. Great to see you're getting some recognition at last, and featuring high in the PU scores. With your customer service you deserve it. You must hate me - my score of 90 is dragging your average score down!

I don't know exactly, but I have experienced the same thing with many sites between the hours of 4pm until about midnight. It varies but there is nearly always a slow time. The worst speed I have ever experienced was Video Box which was virtually inaccessible between those hours. I found American Vice to be much better for speeds, but there was still a slow time, as there was on a lot of sites. I had BT check this and according to them I had good connection speed.

Very informative review. This was a site I was contemplating joining at one time, but there are too many negatives and too many other sites that offer a bit more, especially as I prefer vids to pics. Nowadays before I join a site I always try to work out the TR - tattoo ratio.

messmer's Review
Yeah! I like it too. At last people are starting to take note of this site. Very accurate review IMO. I agree about the webmaster. One of the most underrated things is customer service. Yes people moan about bad customer service, but do they support sites with great customer service? This is the sort of site customers should be signing up for.

No problem for me as long as the site has something exceptional. I have said this many times before but going back 20-30 years and you could pay £20-£100 per video depending on where you purchased. I may sound like some sort of shill but I think online porn is very cheap at the moment.
It can't last. Better view this as the golden age of porn I think, especially with Pirate Bay in the dock and authorities trying to gain control of the internet. I never dreamed of porn being as cheap or accessible as it is at the moment. With some of the specialist websites catering for every fetish imaginable it is hard to get too jaded. I will make the most of this, in the way I made the most of the punk rock scene in the 70's. Thankfully I still have my hearing.

The webmaster has told me this site is not officially open yet, so that would account for the slow updates.

Jay G's Review
I think lousy customer service and lousy content are of equal importance, as far as I'm concerned, in establishing which sites to avoid. Some people would go for the content as the most important thing, but if you get lousy service or feel you've been ripped off in any way, what should be a fun way to spend money, turns out to be a bloody nuisance and waste of time. I avoid any site or organisation that has terrible customer service. This organisation is now one of them.

I don't have a cut off line. What I do is look at the score and reviews from those members whose views I respect the most and whose taste is nearest to mine. I take no notice of the members who score the fake breast/tattoed back/bleached aged blonde sort of site with a high mark, no notice of those who do about 10 reviews a day, and no notice of those who continually award marks of 90+.

Anth's Comment
I think the main reason for PU existing, is to make money by helping genuine porn sites to make money. It mutually benefits both sides. At the same time they give the little guy a chance and a voice in the same way a lot of those TV shows, who challenge crooked organisations or companies, do.
I am really pleased to hear you got a result out of this. Sometimes sites make money out of very strange, incompetent, or dodgy behaviour, and the customer just lets it go, which encourages them, and means they are unlikely to change their ways. This is bad for the customer in the long run, but sometimes the customer bites back. Don't let them get away with it. By challenging them it benefits all of us.
Lets hope this is a lesson for all sites who try this sort of thing. None of us who have followed this are ever going to subscribe to this organisation now, and rightly so.

I agree with Anth on this. It doesn't matter how good the content is. If a site acts in a fraudulant, dishonest, or incompetetnt way, you would never join the site no matter how good the content is. I understand how pissed off customers are when this sort of thing happens. So shout as loud as you like as far as I'm concerned. I want to hear. You also get the warm feeling that by warning others you are diverting money away from rip off artists to genuine good quality sites.

I have a lot of videos that I left at my parents old place, which is a big place with lots of room for storage. Didn't bother taking them to where I live now. My mother always liked some of the films I have on video and always searches through my collection for something to play. Thing is I never bothered separating them from the porn and the music. So you see titles like "Swedish Anal Schoolgirls" mixed with "Alien." So I literally have the porn mixed with the Disney.
