Thanks to you, it takes two to tango :-).

So do I, but as long as we admit this habit, it can't be THAT bad :-).

I agree with most of your arguments, but on the other hand... IMHO as 3D Sex Game is ALREADY ranked on PU against Hands on Hardcore (they're shown in the same list according to the ranks, BOTH in "browse sites" and "hardcore sex" sites), we need to try to put them within the same ranking system, or those pages will become misleading.
If PU admins will decide to completely separate interactive games from the rest to avoid placing them in the same list - it would be a completely different story (and I wouldn't argue against such separation), but now they ARE within the same system, with rankings directly compared to each other, and IMHO we need to take it into account.
As for difference in "how much we enjoy this or that site" - I don't see it a problem, and completely agree that it is what this site is all about :-).

Ok, I will change reference to "3D engine" to "3D graphics", thanks for pointing it out (as I've said, I'm NOT into these things, I'm just a user).
About being impossible to compare apples and oranges - well, aren't we doing it here all the time? :-) What I'm trying to do is to put ALL the reviewed sites on scale of "how much I enjoy them"; and IMHO my ratings are pretty consistent in this regard; now it became even simpler as I have lots of sites to compare new ones with, and it's quite easy for me to say that I enjoy 3D Sex Game about the same as Naked News, MUCH more than Newbie Nudes and significantly less than Met Arts.
Also while everybody can choose their own criteria, I will explain why I prefer "my" approach (try to rank everything) to "your" one.
There are two problems I see with your approach (ranking only "apples to apples"). The first one is the question "what is the niche narrow enough to compare?" Shall we stop separating ONLY 3D games or it shall be done for ALL niches? And then - shall we separate, for example, ATM from Anal as being the same or different niches? In the very extreme case we can even say that all sites are unique, but it will make any ranking completely worthless. The second problem is that when new user comes to the site, he easily can see "the best sites" by overall rating right on the home page; but at this point he doesn't care about "best in class" thing, he wants "the best overall entertainment site", and "global" ranking (opposed to "per-niche ranking") is REALLY important there; another incarnation of the same problem is that sites are usually labeled as multi-niche ones, so if 3D Sex Game is compared to such sites as "Hands on Hardcore", which means that they shall have the same ranking scale. Just IMHO though :-).

Well, everybody has his own opinion , that's what this site is about :-).
About comparing 3D in ActiveDolls and 3D Sex Game - right, models there are anime-style, but in a sense they are MUCH more human because they have human movements and face which expresses something, and animation is IMHO FAR better there; also I don't really care about fancy features used like some-kind-of-shaders or DirectX v10 (I'm not game developer, I'm just a user). It is overall "feeling" what matters to me, and on this scale I DEFINITELY like ActiveDolls engine MUCH better; if trying to figure out what this "feeling" consists of, probably it will be naturally looking movements (including animated face) and overall "polished" interface (I didn't see minor rendering "glitches" in ActiveDolls which are abundant in both 3D Sex Game and 3D Stripper).
On the other hand, if you feel that "3D engine" doesn't cover all the 3D aspects and is all about shaders and such, I won't argue :-). My point is (and was) that overall "feeling" of 3D graphics and animation is IMHO MUCH better in ActiveDolls than in 3D Sex Game (and 3D Stripper COULD be brought to the same level IF they will get rid of those "glitches", will get rid of "jumps" between different dance segments, but to get significantly higher overall entertainment value they will also need MUCH more than a single girl).
> this makes it the best of games available and I graded it as I
> did in relation to the performance of its peers.
But I've tried to compare it's "entertainment value" NOT only to other 3D games, but to ALL the adult sites I know; that's probably where the difference in our ratings comes from.

Deal :-). And what do you think about my idea (not sure if you've read it or not) to "penalize" sites with such PRE-CHECKED upsells by deducting, say, 10 points from their ratings (clearly stating that 10 points were deducted for PRE-CHECKED upsell during sign-up)? I'm likely to do it in the future (unless somebody gives me a reason why it's a bad idea), and would like to see more people doing the same thing; I'm not sure, but if webmasters read this site (and at least some do), it MIGHT help.

But if we shout about it loud enough, don't you think that it could help Epoch (and sites using Epoch) to stop it? After all, if SUBSTANTIAL portion of people will prefer CCBill to Epoch, sites using Epoch will be in disadvantage.

I'm happy to see porn together with her (it happens, but not too often), and her fantasies about bigger cock are perfectly ok with me (as long as they're fantasies, but this is all the porn is about).

> There really is no defense for this practice.
IMHO there are different ways to defend ourselves:
- post BEWARE comments on PU;
- boycott such sites based on the logic that "if site is trying to swindle you one way, they're likely to do it in other ways too";
- MOST IMPORTANT: if hit by such thing, ALWAYS going to your bank and disputing the charge; I was told by banking guy that if some merchant starts to get many disputes, it can become VERY expensive for this merchant, and at some point merchant can even lose his credit card processing license.

I don't think that I had ever seen it for CCBill sites, and I think it's ALMOST every Epoch site (that's why I don't normally join Epoch sites, unless they're VERY special). Do you have similar experience?

At last, webmaster trying to defend this kind of thing, how cute. Then could you please tell us if (as you're saying, I have somewhat different words to describe it) it is "WELL above" and "CLEARLY stated", WHY do you have it PRE-CHECKED?
IMHO there is ONLY ONE possible reason to have such things PRE-CHECKED: to hope that user isn't careful enough and will press "Subscribe" button without noticing it. And please don't tell me it's done "for my own convenience": if I would want to spend another $30/month, I wouldn't care to take another click to join. But other than that, all other explanations are very welcome.

Right; as Monahan has put it:
"There is no real "fire" in many (most?) of the pics."

Exactly; thanks for expressing my feelings it this concise and exact way; IMHO it's a perfect way to describe it in one sentence instead of my long and maybe not so clear description.

BTW, I'm in the same quest to find something unique most of the time, and I've just checked, 9 of my own "top sites" are unique in one way or another, so please feel free to check :-). While some maybe not "your cup of tea", you MIGHT be able to find something, as they're pretty diverse.

Both :-). Buying a bunch of girls is good to make initial collection, but then $15 option is nice to keep things interesting without much effort.

Thanks for explanation; as for talking to Khan - he reads it anyway (to approve), so if he agrees it's a problem, he will probably fix it sooner or later.

I've read that, but shouldn't it also be reflected on "Feedback History" page? Click on "Feedback History" link - it shows very detailed calculation (obviously aiming to explain how the rating was calculated), but end-result is DIFFERENT from the rating shown on the main page.

Please share your thoughts after trying it (while I do like the way she moves, everybody has different points of view and expectations, especially when it comes to 3D).

Have you tried to contact their CC processor? They might be willing to stop processing for the site if it's no longer functioning.

Sure, it wasn't my point to have everybody join :-). I'm just sharing my own very subjective feelings about the site, and it is always up to reader to decide if to join or not. Unfortunately, there is no "holy grail" of porn out there, especially if looking for something original :-(.
