Site traffic

Im curious on the current site traffic these days, because it does seem like there is far less people using the site than 2ish years ago on the older version. That said im just baseing this off the comments and forum usage, of which it seems to just be the same few users over and over. Of course there could be explanations to this, like the current rules and their enforcement meaning there are just far more lurkers, which is why im curious as to what the actualy number of users are monthly compared to 2 years ago.

I wasn't here 2 years ago, so Idk

I've had the same thought. It feels like you can count the number of people using the forum on one hand, sometimes. I don't remember that feeling on the old site.

Yeah, this sort of peaked around 2020-2022 when everyone was locked down. It also coincided with a lot of softcore back then. The amount of hardcore now is way more than back then.

Ah yea, i keep forgetting about covid, because i lived somewhere where it had zero effect on where you can go and my life. Also idk, i mean there was that time when there were people posting murder porn back then and there is still plenty of softcore.

I just found out about this site recently through other I guess more popular one not sure if mentioning it is bannable or not so I'm not taking my risk. I can see that well not many people are currently maybe since it's summer and people want to spend it rather outside than using pc? I'm rather softcore myself with few exceptions. I'd like to fit more site and comments, but at same time I'd like to be myself and I can't bring myself to dive that deep.

I dont think mentioning other sites is bannable, me and other people do it all the time. There is no realy buisness competition here, i doubt they even turn a profit.

Okay. Well then I got here from rule34 I bet there are lots of people who could be here and enjoy it a lot. I mean I'd like to write something a bit off topic. That site rule34 will slowly die. They have some "great" moderators which accept only blacked, but if they see bleached reported it gets removed. Rules on that site are completely pointless because moderators do not give a fuck about them. I will enjoy my stay here a lot more than there. I wish people could come here instead of wasting time there. Also I really wish I would discover this site a lot earlier.

Yea, people here talk about the problems rule34 has a lot and the issues of their mods

Now I can say that I wasted too much time on rule34. Like at begin of 2022 they started to change site for worse. Now I'm just disgusted with people who are in charge of rule34. I don't want to be too sweet here because I'm going to spend here more time from now on, but one thing I can say for sure message system and favorites here are way better than on rule34. It would be nice if more people could be here, but maybe once Summer will end there will be more people. I like spending time on pc at least it lets me escape sad as fuck reality.

Do you know what caused the change on r34? Just hired a bunch of trash mods or something?

Lots of things. I guess maybe like recently head admin completely gave up on it or something. There are lots of weird things and I don't even know how exactly this process of choosing new moderator looks like. They just post info about looking for people on forum and probably just "hire" people. Though there are more to it than mods. Like some people reported quite disturbing ads showing up. Things like showing double standards too. Some mods removed bleached arts with stupid reasons my favorite one was something like "racial exclusion" I mean no shit? Then what blacked is? Once when I tried to talk with one mod that person told me that Blacked is like porn film production company and I don't know it makes it better than bleached? Same with like they don't accept lets call it young girls and boys on site but if they are furry called "cubs" then okay nothing wrong here. They also started to limit what people could do on forum since 2022 and they closed RP ad thread. Also it's just disgusting for me that they pretend that racism works only one way. So yeah going back to blacked vs bleached if you have art which humiliate black guy for having small penis like this art post #79027 it will be removed but same art with doing this to white would be perfectly fine... I have feeling that uploading this post #79026 would get you instant ban. Rule34 is just garbage that people should abandon, because from what I know even people that are into furry have better alternatives. I guess in future the only ones left there will be roleplayers who write comments which are borderline legal and soon some admin will start giving bans for them and people who are into blacked because it's glorified there.

They banned the RP section in forums on r34? Is that why every post has like a dozen rp comments on r34 now? And yea, it is filled with furry and blacked stuff now.

I have no idea anymore. They removed official thread and said to not write RP ads in comments, but you have pretty much RP threads on forum so I have no idea what they are doing. People write RP comments and don't get warned/banned so it's up to mod which check your account. I believe mods do whatever they want. Pretty much blacked is glorified and I would not give a flying fuck about it, but if they remove bleached and say it's bad while blacked is fine then it's just insanity. Same with this furry stuff okay I don't mind furry things some are kind of hot not gonna lie, but really? You will try to say young anthro animal is different than young male or female? I forgot to mention some artist get sort of advertised on top of site when you view their art it show their banner to their fandom fanbox or whatever that site is called. So I don't really want to suggest anything, but I can see possible connection between those cubs being legal and artists that make such arts have their own banners on site because not every artist have such link to their site.

Sorry, i dont follow, i assume you mean blacked posts, but what does that have to do with banning RP forums

Yeah same, I used to be like a obsessive user on r34 until I got banned. I used to be hahaihavetourettes and then I became Nerdlover. The site is pretty much just.. blacked and weird stuff, barely any good porn on there anymore. I wished I would've discovered this site earlier too tbh

I still use r34 because there is still normal hentai, but i wonder if gelbooru would be better for that. Sankakucomplex was the best in the past but they changed it a while ago.

This, plus they allow actual low quality posts while any bleached edits are deleted because "low quality", dude I see stuff that's literally JPEG artifacts all over the place but yet some guy who post a girl with QOH tattoos is bad. Plus the biases on the site: Bans bleached stuff because of "racial exclusion" (how is it racial exclusion when bleached includes everyone, all what bl**ked does is include white, asian, or any person with close proximity to whiteness) while lets low quality posts and weird stuff because the mods don't like bleached. There's literal MS paint-tier drawings on the site, making me question if that's a kid on a 18+ site instead of just playing Fortnite, Minecraft like normal kids do or a genuinely bad artist behind those low quality drawings.
And the mods are literally reddit-tier power hungry, wouldn't be surprised if they are originally from Reddit. Don't forget the mistagging as well, I look up BWC, I get what I want but then I see someone who puts the BWC tag on a post with someone with the same skin tone as coal.
I just left there because it's a huge disorganized biased mess that even with filters, it will still be utter garbage.
Wished more people came here because its more organized than on R34 plus R34 doesn't like bleached so your chances of finding bleached on R34 is low.

(also in my opinion and note: pretty weird how they only let Nazi but yet bleached isn't acceptable, I can get the Nazi and bleached can overlap sometimes but why do they only Nazi but not bleached, I'm curious)

Part of me thinks the same, I wonder about Gelbooru too but what happened to Sankaku, it's been a few years since I went there. I know the site's questionable in the past because they shilled censored Korean manhwa under Sankaku Plus, predatory comments where users say stuff that sounds like they want to harm real children, that Schlomo LARP (why haven't they banned him yet? Dude's spamming for a few years I assume but I don't think he's even banned), and the site mods posting their fetishes instead of anime #5000000 or actual news. Correct me anyway because I haven't been on the site for so long.

It's mainly how the old version of the image search seemed to not work right after they introduced the newer version, which also seems worse than the original older one.
