Finding new material

Post by Toti »

Hello, I am newbie. Am I allowed to post here (?)

I find a little bit hard to contribute with new material to this forum, and I had readed (somewhere) I must do at least 15 "good post" before to be a "complete member" or something similar.

I think it would be easier if every forum had some kind of "order". Something that help you to find in a easy way what is in and what isn't in. Anyone understand what I am trying to say (?)

Also, I am trying to learn good english... Sorry :-P

It's not impossible, nor is it really difficult. Just be dilligent in looking for content and don't hesitate to put something up if you find it. If it is a repost, we'll let you know.

A good rule is to browse the forums (you don't have to read every single post), and check to see what's not good to put up. That way, you have a baseline for what you can post and can:

A) Avoid reposting content

B) Get to your premium membership faster.

And contribute to discussions here. It's a great way to get to know the other members.

Yeah, exactly. Those 15 posts don't all have to contain material. An introduction and a few meaningful posts in discussion threads can get you on your way to premium membership pretty easily. It would be nice if you had at least two or three actual contributions, though. But of course we understand that there's a limited amount of interesting stuff out there. So reposts aren't that bad, as long as we can see that you actually put some effort into finding it. If it's the exact same link that already appears on the forum somewhere (especially if it's been posted just a few days earlier), we'll get a bit suspicious.

If you want to know if a link has already been posted, you can put it into the search box at the top right of the page. If it doesn't come up with anything, you can assume it's new.

You can also earn some goodwill by just simply 'playing along' with how the forum works: embed Youtube videos if you post them, spread some reputation points around, things like that.

All of that together will earn you a premium membership even if you don't have tons of quality content to share with us. The main reason we have the premium section is because we want to weed out the lazy, uninterested members from the enthousiastic and - relatively - active people that make this a great community to be a part of. Not because we only allow big sharers inside.

In short, just show that you belong with us glove fetishists, and we'll let you in. :D

I have to say I don't completely understand what you mean by an "order", but if you mean a sort of index to the forum so you can easily find what's already there, that's kind of what the search engine is for. I'm afraid we can't do much better than that. Unless you have a good suggestion? :)

P.s.: Your English is fine, and yes, you're allowed to post here. ;)

Yeah I see, but well.. Hmm I mean something like a "Summary Folder" where you can see only the pics arranged in the best possible way, not as the users have left them.

Other things..

Honestly I usually really hate forums where you must make "something" post or whatever to became "someone", I think you must do it, but not as an obligation just because you what to do it, and you have something worthy to say. I didn't read anywhere that I must do it in a concrete term of time (one week, two weeks...), there is some rush in that point?

I have some "moral" issues, with copy-rights and others, I think it can be a little bit funny, but I don't feel well sometimes (not all).

Well, thank you for your help. Really!!

ps; my english is not as good as I want t.t

Yeah, I'm afraid that's not quite possible. Most pictures are not posted as attachments but as links to off-site picture hosts (such as imagebam), so it's not like we have some kind of archive with all the pictures that have been posted here. Maybe in some fancy forums that is possible (hentaipalm, for example has some kind of indexing system - though I'm not quite sure what that does), but we can only afford free forum software, which doesn't do that. That's also the reason why we prefer links over attachments: we have a limited amount of storage.

But hey, look at the bright side: if you ever want to see something you haven't seen before, and you've already checked all the recent posts, you can just go digging around in the old parts of the forum. :D

Yeah, I hate that too. But I've learned from previous instances of this forum (it has already died and been resurrected many times - but that was under different management), that we really do need it to keep the forum enjoyable. It keeps out spammers, generates more content, and makes it more of a community instead of just an anonymous porn source.

That's also why we have the general sections, though. If you don't feel like saying anything, you don't have to, and there is still a lot to enjoy. But some stuff just has to stay exclusive, for several - obvious - reasons. Which, again, doesn't mean you can only get there if you have lots to offer (like it works on most other sites that require you to participate). There's plenty of discussions going on, and people are always interested in other people's experiences with their fetish. So there's always something worthy to say.

None, whatsoever. In fact, the more time you take, the easier it'll be to get in, since it tells us you are not trying to storm the gates.

That is indeed a difficult issue. You'll have to follow your own judgment with that. But stuff from youtube and links to online galleries or preview clips, as well as anything from sites like xtube, youporn, xhamster, etc. are more or less copyright free, so you can always post those.

Thanks for you quick response =)

Ouch.. Now I understand. Sorry about that, I hadn't thought in this kind of problems... Many thanks for maintain the forum.
I agree all what you said. In fact, now think your solution for the forum's management is quite reasonable.

I didn't mean "copy-right" in a legal way, sorry.. It's only a "moral" issue, I mean in youtube for instance you can find quite video mades just for fun,
maybe sometimes mades by <18 girls :S
But, on the other side those kind of videos are in fact self made, and they posted it for everyone, and they look great.. But :S

I remember here I could found some links to this kind of videos, so I think that is no problem (?) Not sure at all, normally I use to search in whrg also, and obviously by my self along youtube or wherever. I can search some of them later if you don't know what I mean.

I don't want to sound fussy with this, but although I like this kind of videos, I also feel a little bit bad seeing them. Sorry =|

Other point I wanted to say something is about design.. Despite you don't know me, I was Lurker for a long time and I know how the banner had change at least one time. I think this banner is really good, seriously =) So I had think that it could be a "design site" for people who like to draw or something, where they can make avatars and signatures of our fetish in a artistically way. It's only an idea, I really don't have good skills in PS or other design software, but maybe.. Someone.. ¿?


Regards =)

Yeah, we may have to be careful about that. There's nothing wrong with them in principle, but taking into account the intentions of this site, it may become a bit fishy. However, it may differ on a case to case basis. If you want, you can pm some examples to me, and I'll tell you if they're appropriate or not.

That's a good idea. I know some people have offered to design something, but few ever really did (only GlovedGamer made a new banner). Maybe we could make a separate board if there's enough enthusiasm for it. But how about you start a thread for it first (in the glove talk forum), post a couple of self made avatars and signatures (they don't have to be amazing), and see if you can get the ball rolling.

Hehe sorry I was managing some issues, so I had to postpone to write here.

Yes =) I live in Spain, I am not Spanish at all, but I can write it and read it perfectly :-P

I find pretty cool that here there is people all around the world because that make possible that we can extend our "material search radios" ¿? jeje.

If someone has trouble with Spanish videos or text maybe I can tend a helping hand :)

For example I find suggesting woman (or man) experiences, comments and tips about gloves. Check this out. There is ten post, some of them very large, about one famous brand of rubber gloves here in Spain. Exist something like this in other languages?

The first advertising of this gloves was pretty hot, and I found also two newer on youtube, I don't know if some of you had noticed ¿?







The last one is make by students of one University of Barcelona. What a good idea for a project, don't you think so?

By the way, yesterday I had lunch in a new one restaurant (student restaurant hehe), and from the bar you can see the kitchen.. There were at least three cooks and all of them were wearing this brand of gloves.. For those who love sweetie rubber hands.. Hmm the heat of the kitchen, for hours food tampering.. I lunched very well, I will come back again for sure :)'

In 90's there was another advertising really good from another brand (now extinct), but I think this one is totally missed t.t I remember it as a child.. *nostalgic* :(

Maybe.. Someday.. My skills in that area are quite bad :( But hey, I found at least five or six different banners, since now (when I registered myself) I didn't noticed. Now I use the green one (1thank_green). Who made it? I like it =)

Ps: I will send you a pm, maybe today afternoon or tomorrow.


Many thanks =)

That's also quite a big brand in some other countries actually (notably the UK). What is that link? Some sort of review site? We do have that in the Netherlands as well, but not for rubber gloves. If you use Google Translate to translate that page into English (just paste the url in the translation box), you can post it on the glove talk board. Then you'll have another post, and, who knows, maybe some reputation points as well.

The last two are nice. The first one I don't like so much as it features a man in gloves. I've already seen it before too.

You can post these ones in the non-nude area or the general household glove link area as well. If you do do that, though, please use the embed function for youtubes. Read about that here. Judging by the .be links, I'm guessing you posted this from a mobile device, so I'll let it go for now. But please try to do it as much as possible.

Another thing you could've posted about, in the experience section this time! :D (You still can, if you expand on it a bit.) See? It really isn't so difficult to find material and to make useful posts to get to 15. ;)

That's just a standard theme that I downloaded for the forum. Some of those are indeed very nice, but I'm quite used to the default one now. :)
