I have been lurking, want to say some things.

Many of my renders are nude, and I am usually showing off a character. I also like nude pinups..... In the past I have gotten got pm's and emails about them being nude and I asked how I could possible show off the bodies with their clothes on. I was told by "those" people that they know what woman looks like naked, and they don't need to see it here............................  Fine change your user settings and block nudity already......... Don't tell me you don't want to see it, when you don't have to see it, ever. Isn't it amazing how many people will tell you what they think you should do, because they said so..... Sorry, not happening..... I don't expect any of you to do what I think you should do..... I don't even think like that to begin with.....

I basically only comment on things that interest me, friends stuff, or if someone used something that I helped on or released myself. I don't have the time to go thru the gallery everyday, so I do miss things. That's life. If I don't notice any of the first things I mentioned about what I comment on, I might pass right over it, and not notice.... If there are 8 in a row from the same person, I probably wont look at any of those...

As far as spam flooding in certain areas of the site being talked about. No idea what to tell you about that. It used to be that you had to pay extra to do that, and some did pay for that. Now it is free, gives rewards, and seems to happen a lot just because of that. There are days I wonder how lucrative giving something away all the time can be. What does Rendo actually gain from someone getting as many points as possible every day, and then giving content away while still having to pay the vendor? No clue how they pay for that. Do those same people actually buy anything to offset the costs? That, is an interesting question that I doubt they will answer if you ask... Many don't take the time to do production credits in the renders either, so they wont link anyone to any products either... I am still not seeing a benefit, but the may be one buried there somewhere.

I think the biggest difference in posts, participation, from years past to now, is social media and cell phones.... Many people are glued to a phone, and just scroll right thru it..... Everything is thumbnail size on a phone, so there is little need to look at any other page for a full size image that is the same size as the thumbnail..... People have even told me that themselves.... And I have no reason to doubt them.... 

If they linked the reward points to views and/or comments, that would be interesting.... Then bots would show up, again, doing comments, sort of like the past when you got basically the same comment, from the same person, on everything you posted years ago......... Think about that for a bit.......
