Should we allow webteases that are beyond the definition on the front page?

Erotic Poetry

Post by bondageslave36 »

I am not a moderator here, nor do I claim to be... but I think others will agree with me when I say this: PLEASE do not post webteases that are not webteases. If you want a creative outlet, use the forums! The webtease section is for webteases, not poems. I don't want to sound like I have my panties :blush: in a bunch about this, but I just don't want that kind of thing to happen often, and the site to be filled with junk webteases that aren't even teases. Anyone else agree?

I also agree. That Executive Angel or whatever her user was did this aswell. She posted like 5 one pagers. It's just annoying and makes the list grow bigger. They should be deleted from the webtease section.

Would it be possible to add functionality to the site that people could hide teases they don't like?

As much as I think that this tease was horrible and a waste of 30 seconds of my life I'll never get back, if we blast everyone that posts anything we don't like, it will discourage them from maybe making something we do like in the future.

I really appreciate the participation of every woman. The most women still think that sex is something dirty, but a woman who participates here shows that she is open minded.

You guys have to understand that for women sex is more than just wanking or sticking your toy in and out. I like erotic peotry and my personal opinion is keep it there.

I loved the webteases from Executive Angel because they were well written. She had a nice writing style. Too bad she is gone :\'-(

Ahh ok I thaught you were talking about poetry in general, but I agree the webtease with the name Erotic Poetry is a bit short yeah.

Don't take this the wrong way but as a moderator shouldn't you take the 'peoples' view into consideration rather than your own personal feelings. unless of coarse this site is not a democraticly run one. don't get me wrong i think your all doing a lovely job running this site. but i think you should stick with what you decide, not make exceptions because you like one thing, you should treat all the same. so i agree it's not a webtease frankly it is a waste of bandwith lol. why not create a caption section for these one picture things.

in defense of erotic poetry, a webtease is erotic pictures with writings attached, it has nothing to do with the length, i enjoyed this tease and those of executive angel (btw she has a new job and is working for some sexy execs!)

actually, according to the definition found on the front of this site / wikipedia, in a webtease "The viewer is always engaged in a form of sexual roleplaying, supported by the storyline." This would disclude erotic poetry from the label of webtease.

Ok... democratically run website? Get over yourself.

The fact that the mods and owners have put this much effort into a free site is amazing enough. If they base their descisions on their own views and not yours, cancel your paypal subscription, get a refund, and take your business somewhere else. Oh wait! That's right, it's FREE. Cancel your membership or never open the tease again.

While opinions might be values in building a better site everyone can like, why should they nessiccarily censor a few people who are free members, just because other free members might not entirely like it?

I know I didn't like this tease/peom either, but I'd rather skip it or be able to hide it from my view instread of just ripping it out due to some people's opinion.

Hey, Hey, Hey please relax all. This was my personal opinion and not any official statement. This is no democratical site? Maybe not but look at the content, the webteases, the WIKI... these things were created by the community. Of course Seraphox did a great job and made this possible. But I think he would agree we want a democracy here.

Everybody here can say what he want and we tollerate all legal kinds of webteases. And not at least so much suggestions from the community were implemented in this site.

I know it's sometimes better to not post my opinion because there is a rank that call me a "Team Member", but I like to discuss so please grant me this little bit of freedom :-)

Acknowledged. These misunderstandings will always happen, unless you write a disclaimer every time. But in my humble opinion, a little controversy is healthy, so I wouldn't change anything. :-P

Now for the issue at hand. I added a poll to the thread. Democracy 4 life! :-D

Personally I would vote to delete it. You can post poetry with pictures in the forum if you want, there's no need to post it as a webtease. Because, it's important to have a clear definition what a webtease is and if we start making exceptions that's the price we pay. Webteases are what makes this site special.

But I recognize that it's a complicated issue, so let's wait for the vote results. The poll runs for five days.

Why don't we make a captioned album for users to post captioned pics like orgasmdenial.com used to have?

I downloaded the captions that where on the site from someone who made them into a torrent and would be happy to hand them over or upload them to get the section started.

Surely the answer to the problem is a system whereby all the teases can be ranked in order of their score.
Unpopular ones would drop off into the distance and the great new Random Tease facility would help keep older teases in circulation so the scores would change over time.

Talking of old teases "The Red Dress" tease from the classics is so good.
It is simple, sexy and very effective.

The thing is, maybe if it actually was poetry, then i wouldnt have a problem, trying to get someone on a webcam, is by no means poetry.

boy did this get out of hand lol.

I think that you've all done a wonderful job with this site, and personaly i don't understand why people continue to go to other sites such as OD, this site is free, theirs is not' a big factor in the site i'll choose.

but how can a site exsist if it doesn't apeal to the community? If Mods decide things for you and don't take your view into account, even a little lip service then it is likely that the site will not be enjoyable for you, and you will seek your enjoyment elsewhere.

imagine that the webteases had massive racial abuse on them, and not in a kinky kind of cuckolding situation, but promoting racial supremacy, now thats a very extreme and unlikely situation but that would make me go somewhere else.

these sites are not coding on the internet they are communities and without a community you'l have no site, so to appeal to the massive and have people 'believe' their important that their view counts and that they can create some kind of change, you'll need a form of democracy.
How about a type of parliamentry democracy- i.e. you have the mods who enforce the decisions and run everything and those who are voted to create changes based on the communities choices.

wow what a ramble.
