Hey all!
Following on from my post about deluded fans and some of the comments people made, it got me thinking about how we all may engage with the platforms.
No judgement at all, I would just be interested in learning a little more about behaviours and reasons, so.... I have four questions Id love people to answer.
1- How often do you watch the channels (either online or on TV)?
2- How often do you post/engage with the forum?
3- Do you feel you watch the channels too much/not enough?
4- What would you say you key reasons for viewing the channels and using the forums is?
Thanks in advance
SophieHartIsMyQueen your deluded fans thread was great, and so is this thread too.
1- How often do you watch the channels (either online or on TV)?
I tend to flick through BS online every morning just to knock a quick one out over an Ebony babe (usually Tanya Renai).
I barely get a chance to watch afternoon or night shows on BS featuring their Ebony babes like Kartel, Joa, Sabrina etc.
2- How often do you post/engage with the forum?
My forum stats since joining in July 2010 are 4,199 posts.
3- Do you feel you watch the channels too much/not enough?
I think I watch them too much, even though I barely have time to watch them.
I've watched the channels since they first started, despite them now becoming so repetitive and formulaic, I can't stop.
4- What would you say you key reasons for viewing the channels and using the forums is?
It's the live nature of the shows that keeps me coming back, just to see if a new Ebony babe appears, or if an existing one might do something exciting.
I like reading all the different opinions on the forum. It makes me look at stuff from another perspective.
1- How often do you watch the channels (either online or on TV)?
I no longer watch the channels live on tv or online day or night, it's a choice I made three (ish) years ago when I made other lifestyle changes.
2- How often do you post/engage with the forum?
Daily for the most part, either on the forum or with the other mods in our moderator centre. I long ago stopped posting caps and videos due to being a bit burnt out and killing a computer. I did keep posting celeb content for many years after that, but I quit doing that as well, it was too time consuming. My time spent on the forum has been relatively consistent for many years despite making the changes I have.
3- Do you feel you watch the channels too much/not enough?
All my channel 'viewing', if you can call it that comes from what others have posted, so very little viewing in reality (time wise). I do still enjoy seeing what others can capture, and the channels do still have good moments, I just no longer spend the time watching and waiting for those moments myself. It's enough for me.
4- What would you say you key reasons for viewing the channels and using the forums is?
It was the the old flash the gash days that brought things to my attention, then as they grew into the many channels we once had, it was the same as it it'll be for many others, great looking women often being risque during daytime, then going further on a night, further still online, you could say a pretty good cheap thrill...unless you call that is, which has never interested me really.
As for using the forum itself, I've been here since the start (#32), enjoyed the banter and liked the people so stayed. It was all about sharing content early on for me, which was a lot of fun at the time. I've stuck around this long because not only do I enjoy moderating (most of the time) still, but there is a lot to like here, whether it be channel content, the various discussions, various image threads, sport, tv, news, funny threads etc. Over the years you genuinely start to care about the people in the little forum community, sure it's a mixed bag of very normal, sometimes weird, often pervy, funny individuals, but I wouldn't change it, aside from trolls and bots, we can all do without those cunts
Q1 Nightly, initially at least to see who is starting the night - (up to shift change at 11 .30 or so on BS) from there, I decide to stick with for a while, Rec or seek alternative option
Q2 Way too often I guess! Honestly i firstly check to see if I should reply to comments on my posts, and then of interest reasons. So regularly/semi regularly. I am sitting at 3871 since '18
Q3 A/A Too often maybe since they began, lately questioning that.??
Q4 I guess it is filling a 'void'?? Haven't thought too deeply about it! NB Using the forum is only to see what others view as an attraction to them in terms of viewing habits. Topic threads away from the adult content often throw up interesting discussion points for people of like mind!
1. I don't. I ripped my Sky Dish down years ago and quickly discovered Freeview isn't worth the bother. I watched a few girls on Streamate (Zara Lei being the only one I remember) for a while but quickly got bored with that too.
2. Too often
3. See #1. My current viewing level is perfect IMHO
4. As far as the forum goes it's another form of entertainment.
Most of the people on here are decent sorts too and are intelligent enough to respect the opinions of others.
1- How often do you watch the channels (either online or on TV)?
Depends on who is scheduled to be on more so than ever now.
I pay attention to those who I feel demonstrate the highest level of honesty of endeavour. Unfortunately they are dwindling in number due to the process driven nature of the shows and too many babes have become increasingly disreputable in terms of their behaviour.
Those who do execute my preferred characteristic tend to put on the best shows and demonstrate a selflessness and warmth of spirit to make them truly endearing. Atlanta Moreno, Beth Bennett and Danni Levy being the main examples I would point to.
2- How often do you post/engage with the forum?
Most days but not always on Babeshow subjects.
My babeshow rants and long critiques are largely a thing of the past. I have been here a long time so regurgitation of the same old stuff got a bit tiresome.
That being said it is quite difficult to avoid not saying the same old thing in one respect or another given the stale nature of the shows as they stand.
A lot of my contributions come in non babe related threads. I have strong opinions on a variety of subjects but do not air them all as I am conscious of trying not to cause forum warfare. I make enough mistakes as it is so am more wary now than I have perhaps ever been before.
3- Do you feel you watch the channels too much/not enough?
My answer to question one means I feel I get the balance about right now.
It used to be very easy to stay up countless hours every day and night during the golden eras of the shows. But they are long gone so I find more constructive ways to use more of my time.
4- What would you say you key reasons for viewing the channels and using the forums is?
In the case of watching the shows at their best they can still be enjoyable, exciting and intoxicating. Alas far less so than in times gone by.
As regards the forum well it has been a true friend and at times a lifesaver to stop me going over the edge during times of mental health struggle.
This place is a sanctuary for me in so many ways and I owe it a debt of gratitude that words could never do justice.
I'd like to answer Q.4 first if I may, as it makes more sense to me as a starting point. The key reasons for viewing the channels is that as humans we are on this planet to procreate, & the vast majority of us are pre-programmed to find women attractive. I discovered the channels had many attractive women, so I viewed, which led to calling, which became something I did regularly & after finding this forum I eventually decided to join, it seemed a logical step.
Q.1 I view the channels when work/life allows, as I've worked both day & night shifts & now part-time my viewing reflects that. I currently watch something every day & night, but have no idea in terms of minutes/hours.
I can't ever remember a situation when I've put watching the channels before other commitments, such as called in sick for work, turned down any social event, so that's answered Q.3. & I don't see a situation where I would ever question that I wasn't watching the channels enough.
Q.2. I generally post something on a daily basis, during the daytime-early evening. My posts/day is a tick under 6, but over the 12+ years I've been a member I've spent roughly half that time as a none-poster. Similar to the shows I've no idea how long I'm on-line, usually it's a multi-tasking situation so the time-on-line stat is a bit vague.
Q.4. The second part of this leads on from Q2. as to my reasons for using the forum, which have evolved from the babes to other topics. In my second active spell here it has been as much about interacting with other members either in posts or pm's than the shows alone. As with most things you get out what you put in.
1- How often do you watch the channels (either online or on TV)?
I try to watch for a little bit after work, and on Weekends
Been tougher to watch with increased Work and the NFL Playoffs
Depends on who's on when I'm around
2- How often do you post/engage with the forum?
Only started engaging the last few months
I've been a member of the forum for a long time (maybe 5 years)
3- Do you feel you watch the channels too much/not enough?
A little bit of both. I don't get to watch enough to get invested anymore.
At the same time, when I do watch, I do feel I could be doing something else with my time.
4- What would you say you key reasons for viewing the channels and using the forums is?
Getting to see beautiful women being sexy helps fill a void in my life
I tend to stick with who I like and who's been good to me, but I do like a shot of strange every now and than
As for the forum, I like seeing or reading about what I missed.
Lately I've been more into other forum members perspective on the shows (and the decline of them)
How they feel about certain performers (everyone has different taste)
Trying to delve deeper into the mindset of the viewer/spender
Hoping for a better tomorrow as far as the shows go, even if that may not be a reality
Thanks for the answer so far everyone! It's really interesting to see! I should also, out of fairness, answer them myself too!
1- perhaps once a week but when bored working from home, I may check out what's happening.
2- I'd say Infrequently compared to many
3- don't really watch them at all but when I do it's for a short burst
4- if I see a particular babe is on (Sophie or Beth!) I'll be intrigued to have a look but not overly fussed. For the forum, I like some of the caps but am also fascinated by how people interact. The forum has shown me a lot about how people have very differing interests and levels of curiosity
1. Hardly watch any shows live, they don't warrant the time anymore. Usually either watching something else (NFL playoffs right now), playing games or out to meet friends. Usually scan scripted records to see any babes of interest and upload but admittedly even that is too much of a chore now.
2. Regular posted for years, usually vids, although when I've actually check the count recently not nearly as much as other long timers. Getting less and less frequent, although I like to share what's been of interest on the box.
3. I think any channel watching is too much now. The effort by the channels has diminished so I reciprocate.
4. Still worth a check to see if anything is new and exciting. The forum is not as fun as it used to be, it reflects the shows really, but like other platforms I'm on I regulate my interaction a lot more now
