RagingBuddhist's Comment
from rearadmiral:
I was a member there up until about three weeks ago. I have to say that of the three sites that come with that membership (Exploited College Girls and Back Room Casting Couch being the other two) I think NVG is the weakest. Some of that is subjective so I’ll try to explain.
My primary reason for joining when I do (I’ve joined maybe five or six times now) is to get access to ECG. BRCC is a great added bonus that adds value to the membership but NVG is a take-it-or-leave-it part of the deal. The scenes are all fairly well done and many of the models are attractive (though some aren’t) so on that scale the site does okay.
Where the site really falls flat is in site design and technical stuff. I’m a fan of simple site designs but NVG looks like it was designed in 1995 and not updated since then. I’ve never found a search mechanism though there may be one. The only way I’ve ever found to sort the videos is by a bar at the top of the screen that allows you to sort by year. I don’t know how that date would work with a remastered video. Once you’re on a specific year page you have some very small thumbnails that really don’t assist in deciding if you want to download the scene. I can’t recall if there is any better way to see the model before downloading.
Speaking of downloading, if there are downloading options I’ll choose MP4s and look for 1280x720 if it’s available. That depends on the bitrate too as I’m looking for the best compromise between video quality and file size. The files are MP$s but if there is an option for different resolutions I didn’t see it. Even the most recent uploads are only 656x368, 2500kb/s and 29fps. That resolution is very low by today’s standards. If I’m incorrect and there are better options for downloading I hope that someone else will weigh in and let us know.
There is a big element of subjectivity here, but if this were a stand-alone site I wouldn’t join unless the price was under $10. The site itself and the video quality are too far below industry standards. But (and this is subjective again) Exploited College Girls is a great site (though the attractiveness of the models is slipping a bit in the past eight months) and Back Room Casting Couch is a good site so if you have any interest in those I’d recommend joining and you get NVG as a bonus so you can explore that.
As I said, I don’t have an active membership there now but if you have any specific questions I can try to answer them. I hope this helped you a bit.

No, you're right the entire "review" is biased and written to promote the site. I looked at the heated discussion that went on years ago about this site. You were one of the ones who rightfully opposed the shilling reviews for this site by people who were contributors to the site. Khan allowed it, but I think the link disqualifies this review.
Hopefully the staff here have changed their stance on this type of thing. If you ask me, reviews by people(porn users) who pay for the content is what we do here. Reviews by those that contribute content is not what this place is about.

As we've said, this is a bit of an unusual situation. While the user does have input into the site by virtue of his uploading images, we've decided that, for the purpose of our rules, his involvement is not that of someone who has any real control over the site. We're allowing his review but encouraging users, such as yourself, to take his obvious bias into account when you determine if his remarks help you in any way.
Sorry if you don't agree with this course of action but its what we've decided is best in this situation.

"If that isn't someone associated with a site, who is?"
nonetheless, the guy who determines the rules decided this post doesn't violate the rules. BUT, so that i don't just sound like i'm trying to piss anyone off...
YOU, RagingBuddhist, could post pictures of yourself at NewbieNudes, and there would be women (and men, perhaps) who would find you attractive (no matter what you look like) and comment on your pics and make you feel like a million bucks. especially if you get involved at all in the forums, where naked people become de-objectified, thereby making them 100% sexier and 100% more accessible and removing the slight twinge of guilt that the more altruistic of us feel when we look at mainstream porn. and that goes for any of you! it may not be new, but it is revolutionary, imagine a world where all the smarminess and underage-ness was taken out of porn. certainly that wouldn't be for everyone, but i bet it's for a whole lot of us!

Guys, I can't seem to get around your criticisms. The only content on this site is member submitted. How can members who post material on the site speak of their experience but not seem biased? I don't see a way.
Seriously, check out the site. You don't have to pay to peruse the goods, but I'm sure after a while of looking around you'll want to pay so you can see everyone's videos. Being a paying member of this site is like walking into someone's home and playing everyone of their VHS tapes until you find one with them having sex on it.
How often do you get to see REAL homemade sex videos and private nude photographs of anyone, much less the thousands and thousands of members belonging to this site? Sure, there are other sites that cater to this sort of thing, but I'm a member of them and none of them get the job done as well as this site does.
I can't stress it enough. Check it out for yourself and you'll find it is very satisfying.
Enjoy!

Your timely review has reminded me it is past time I revisited this fine site.
The fact that you are mightily impressed adds a lot of weight to that thought too, my friend.

According to your comment it was almost exactly four years ago, and I think you are 100% accurate in your assessment: nothing has changed since then. (Except that it is technically twice the price now because they shortened the membership from two weeks to one, but that really isn't a big deal because there is very little here and a determined member with a normal internet connection could download everything they wanted in a couple of hours.)
I really, really, really wish that there were more sites with good public nudity in American (or Canadian or Western European cities) but I realize that the current legal climate probably prevents this. Not to sound like a shill, but if you do like public nudity, the best I've seen is Teasers VOD.

from pat362:
It is a very expensive network but TBP does mention that in their review. In their defense. They do offer content that isn't really available in too many other places. The first major problem I have with the content in most of the sites is that their preview sections are non-existent so no way of knowing what you get for your money. The other problem is that I find that too many of the performers are simply not remotely attractive. I may be in a minority with this last one but I know I'll never join this network regardless of the price.

No problem brother, I'm always willing to answer stuff that I may have some insight to. I do think it is a good site and I actually scored it quite high myself, but I think we may not share the same tastes. If you have any more questions or want deeper info, I can pull out the external HD that has the sites content on it. I think I have every video and about 1/4 of the photos up to the date of the review I published. Good luck hunting man! I know how hard it is these days with the pickings we have....

from GCode:
All the models are quite petite and the fake tits are the minority. However, these models are not as petite as models in maybe ALS Scan. Meaning, the models are usually skinny but smaller tits are not the main concern of the site. While I'd say some of the fake titty models are there, the site rarely shoots models with fake tits that are overwhelmingly big. So, if there is a shoot of a model with fake tits it is probably a model going from A to B or C or B to C but not really over this.
The only thing about the site that is my main concern is the overall routine that each scene gives a feeling of. For instance, I'd say the majority of the scenes (videos) are models going through the motions. Standard strip, masturbate, then orgasm (a lot of theatrics). Plus, the hardcore is your standard girl on bed/couch, man walks in, she sucks his cock, he goes down on her, missionary, doggy, cowgirl, reverse, jack off in her face. Also, the hardcore scenes are a minority here. I'd say about 1/4 of the content unless they have been doing a huge amount of hardcore updates since my membership.
While that may stray you away as it is from what I said, I can say that the videos and photos are at the right quality for this day and age. Plus, the lighting is quite well and the settings are colorful and bright. If you are a photo lover, I know the resolution is high and can be downloading via zip (plus the other sizes). However, I know the watermark is non-intrusive but I don't remember how much they are shopped up.
Plus, as I recall you are a fan of 'keeping the bush' and I do believe most of the models here are highly trimmed or completely bald. Hope some of this helps with your decision.

Yeah - thanks for your suggestions, I appreciate your time, RB. :)
I have since left another comment, saying that I found a solution, and am now using DTA - although not in the way I was used to. Right-clicking doesn't get you the file by any method at all (DM or otherwise). But LEFT-clicking does. Still doesn't help with FDM, but DTA does happily offer a way.
Cheers.
Davit.

Actually, I have just discovered to my delight that DTA does work. When you LEFT click, a Windows box comes up asking if you want to play the file or download to disk...and another option for downloading with DTA!
Don't know why FDM (my preferred DM) is not on the list, but who cares, I now have DM support!
Thanks for your comment.

Down Them All does not work. Tried it after Free Download Manager didn't work. Problem is, right-clicking a link doesn't take you to the file. It brings up a file called 'download_video.php'. You have to left click it and then only using the Windows pop-up will give you the file, not FDM or DTA.
Whenever I use a download manager, it just beings up the file called download_video.php (which downloads in about a nanosecond).
Same happens with Dorothy Black's site, but customer support responded to a comment I left on PU, saying they were going to bring in DM support soon.
Are you saying there is actually a DM that definitely works for this site that you have had success with?
Thanks in advance.

RagingBuddhist's Review from RagingBuddhist:
It's got a real 1990 something feel to it, with the same background I saw when I joined several years ago. Their "Archive Photo Gallery" hasn't changed in years either. It's got the same 27 pages of pictures that were up the last time I joined. The watermarks verify that - they're all marked 2001 and 2002. They've been going at it with the same formula for so long, even the watermark in their videos is now literally fuzzy around the edges.
Even though I believe that sometimes you have to pay for what you want, this site is ridiculously expensive, even at $20 a month. The concept is great - the execution is anything but. I know I won't be back unless there are some dramatic changes on the site.

To their credit, it is mentioned clearly in the Terms of Service. But 15 downloads per month??? That's insane. It looks like another attempt to foil pirates that only hurts legitimate paying customers.

Yes, we've all had those experiences with "clunkers" and it will keep happening because the good sites have been mined out by most of us and if we are tempted to re-subscribe to them we are dependent on the daily updates because we have all the good stuff from the past on our hard drives already.
And so we keep straying into unfamiliar territory where we might find the occasional gold nugget but sadly most of the time we will find fool's gold instead! :-)

Just went to VideoBox to check how many connections I could make there and am downloading four scenes at the same time, RB, so most likely the maximum of two downloads at a time with a download manager must be a site policy. But I will try your suggestion. It's not of major importance to me how many simaltaneous downloads I can do when it comes to this site because I'll have all I want soon enough but it would be helpful at other sites to have more connections.

Thanks, RB. Just tried your suggestion with fear and trembling and was left with two lines basically saying the same thing except that the first was in "bold". That one said 6 at the end, the one underneath had a 0. So I left things alone for now unless you can guide me a bit more. :-)
P.S. Expect to find me in other previously uncharted waters as I go along. Much of the main stream is really starting to bore me. :-)

I suppose, but this is why I would think most folks setup a spam email account just for online orders, because it never seems like unsubscribing from things works well anywhere (and for a while I was convinced unsubscribing from one just led to your address being sent to someone else to use as there would be an odd jump in unknown spam). Perhaps I'm just paranoid.

RB, I've been getting a big increase in the number of spam emails the last few days as well. I can't prove who the source is, or the cause. But I can say that the spam emails I've been getting from AmateurMatch are almost certainly from my partial signup at porn pros.
So my feeling is that the rest of the increased spam came from the same source, my partial signup at porn pros.
Have you been getting any emails from AmateurMatch as well? It wouldn't prove anything, but it would be an indication that your signup at porn pros was the cause of some of your increased spam.
