Two tips for commenting:
Unless it is 100% positive, write it out in notepad and let it digest for at least a day before deciding to post it.
If what you are writing is something you would never say directly to the person/people in question if you met them face-to-face in real life, then don't post it.
Mutiny Though the reality here is thousands of people like it, and a handful don't. It's just that the handful are really fuckin' loud about it.
I assume this is about plastic surgery on tits. If so then I don't think this is a true statement. My guess is that more people would like a natural woman over surgically enhanced woman. Some people are really fuckin' loud about not liking it so the directors understand their side of dislike.
I really don't know what the percentages are for and against it. We should make a poll to get a better idea.
Will65 "The quality of your Bic Mac has fallen off since you started selling Mc Eggrolls, Mc Sushi, Mc Blubber Nuggets, Bubble tea, Mc BBQ, Mc Spaghetti, Mc Pizza, Mc VeganBurgers, McFajitas, and McDoughnuts. Now you have 100 middling products and the 3 good ones I loved you for are poorly made or out of stock
Go look at the last 50 SLR originals and tell me how many of them are the "plastic" women you don't care for and how many feature girls with natural bodies.
Your argument simply isn't true, you're being hyperbolic. 90%+ of the "menu" is still natural girls. You're probably going to just have to deal with the 10% of the content that doesn't specifically suit you that other people may like. If your expectations are that 100% of the scenes will be exactly what you like, and nothing will ever be created for anyone else, you're just setting yourself up for disappointment. It will never be that way.
rerun119 I wasn't specifically referring to plastic surgery there, just theorizing that for anything someone has a preference for, there are thousands of others who share that preference but aren't the type to comment on porn forums/comment sections. And for the thousands of people who quietly share that preference (I'm drawing from "likes" and watch time for this assumption, btw), there are a handful that loudly dislike it. I'm sure there are lots of others for whom the particular preference isn't their thing, but they don't feel the need to speak up.
Anyway, that's my perception, generally, for all sorts of preferences/kinks/fetishes/etc. Eager to see the results of your poll, though.
Hunky-Dory I just replied above that that's not what I meant exactly. Feel free to check that post out for clarity.
And hey, no worries. My stuff isn't for everyone. 
(I agree, Nash is incredible!)
Will65 I wrote a post on the Cj Miles video about disliking the amount of plastic performers recently
It's pretty funny that this thread is still going while you still refuses to accept that you used derogatory language in the very fist sentence in this thread. Zero self-reflection on your side, bro...
It's also actually kind of telling that instead of just owning up on your own mistake you point the finger on others.
I mean, we all make mistakes. Just admit it and go on. You said that I made mistakes as well and you're right. And yes, I was banned from posting as well in the past. Some of my posts were deleted as well. That can happen when you are emotional about the stuff you like or dislike, often despite better knowledge. But it's one thing to make a mistake and owning up to it and accept the consequences and a totally different thing to play the victim, pointing with the finger on others and act like you didn't even do anything wrong in the first place. Sometimes even a tiny bit of self-reflections is all it needs.
And come on, being banned from posting for one week isn't actually a hard punishment. It's basically a soft slap on the finger. 
rerun119 Some people are really fuckin' loud about not liking it so the directors understand their side of dislike.
This is the part I'm having a hard time getting my head around. I understand the primal human desire to be heard. Totally.
But watches and likes are votes for more of that kind of content. Comments are a great way to be more specific with that feedback. That's the most useful way to hear from thousands of people.
Nielsen doesn't ask people to describe what TV shows they're not watching and why. That's not data, it's just noise. Instead they spend a lot of money finding out what people watch, then compile that data to discover trends and report those trends to networks. Someone sending Nielsen a letter to say they don't like something is one single data point in a sea of millions. Even if thousands of people send similar letters, that's not how they compile data because it's wildly unscientific and arbitrary.
A comment that someone doesn't enjoy, I dunno, BBWs for example, doesn't negate the hundreds or thousands that watched/liked a BBW video. I'm not saying people should be prohibited from doing it or anything. Yeah, for sure, speak your truth. As a member of the community I prefer that people be cool about it. You know, be kind and shit. But that's just me asking nicely. I'm not here to censor anyone.
It's just...taking a negative position against content many others are seemingly happy consuming...I just don't see the benefit. It just feels futile, like misspent energy, IMHO.
LordCrash Body modifications are a choice that affect appearance, which is what the models are selling. I could say that we have way too many blondes, and that I hate blondes. That is also a comment on appearance, and could be taken as "derogatory". I could comment that we have way too many MILFs, and that I don't appreciate older women. That is a comment on appearance and personal factors, too. It could be taken as "derogatory". It shouldn't be, though, because I am commenting on classes or categories of performers who profit on those aspects of themselves. When you makes your body and appearance your product, criticism of that product is much more in-bounds than it is for other people.
Your post was more egregious than mine, since you singled the actress herself out for criticism, saying that she could be hot, if not for her ugly tats, and that she was giving the finger to mother nature. Your post was HIGHLY personal, while mine was not. Had you said, "I'm tired of all the tatted up models. Yuck." I'd be on your side, siince you were criticizing the preponderance of a certain type of model in casting decisions. Instead, you took the model to task, personally and specifically, for her choices.
i've been over this point exhaustively because it is important. If all criticism of model appearance is prohibited, we have no way of explaining to the company why we dislike a particular type of model. It's more than a bit ridiculous, especially in light of the horrible - and directly personal - comments I see users make here every day.
Mutiny I can see the position that youre trying to take, but your boss asking people directly to explain why they don't like certain scenes, and recieving exactly the type of feedback that I was banned for really undermines your point. It's clear that the company DOES want to know what we don't like, but apparently it is only permissible in response to a direct question. Otherwise, the mods would have to delete/ban half of the bosses own thread and replies. Instead, they will crusade in comments when they come across a user they already don't like.
Policy is only effective when the whole organization, top to bottom, practices with the same degree of integrity. Otherwise, it just looks like petty exercises of power to serve personal preferences.
And we haven't even gotten to the hypocisy of banning someone for a 5 word not-personally-directed comment about casting directions while the boss has a well-deserved reputation for viciously and hyper-personally insulting paying customers he does not agree with.
What was that bit about attending the beam in you own eye first?

Hunky-Dory trying to analayse users comments and out study them up to a certain point
I'm honestly not quite sure what you mean by this. Can you clarify a bit, or share an example of what you mean?
I do try to be thoughtful with my responses, consider what's being said, and share my perspective. I often get it wrong...I'm human and sometimes I fuck up. I'm always willing to take a step back and correct myself when I've fucked up. I don't always see it, but I'm open to being shown.
We're all here because we like VR porn and want it to grow and improve. We have different pitches as to how to get there, and I'm down to discuss strategy, preferences, and shared interests with anyone who wants to engage.
Hunky-Dory what you don't want to hear
I do want to point out that, so far, I haven't released anything that wasn't a PMV edit (and I get all sorts of feedback on those that I'm happy to receive, both compliments and critiques). So when it comes to conversations about all the other content, none of the feedback is directed at me, so I have no dog in the fight. Just trying to be part of a conversation about what we like and want to see more of.
That said, sometimes people are jerks and I'm not down with that. As a member of the community I reserve the right to nope out of a conversation if there's not at least a baseline of mutual respect happening.
But again, I'm just sharing what's in my heart. No one is obligated to agree. I'm asking that they be chill and open about it, but I'm not y'all's dad. Everyone gets to make their own choices.

You're missing the point. It's not about what you don't like, its about what you and others do like.
If you like a studio, but not the model, you can suggest they also film with a model you do like. There is no need to say nasty and hurtful things about a person to try and get a video you want made.
rerun119 I think what he’s saying is that, for example, this CJ Miles scene has 1.4K likes and then one guy in the comments complaining about plastic surgery. They’re going to put more stock in the thousands who liked it than the one guy who didn’t. That’s not to say I don’t go in the comments complaining, of course I do, but it’s usually about technical things or directorial choices, it’s very rarely, if ever, personally attacking anyone. They may just ignore my complaints too but many sites do still see VR as being in an experimental phase and actively say that they want feedback from the VR community to improve the product. I know the guy from VRHush has said to me that he appreciates my forceful feedback good and bad as it’s market research that they can’t buy from anywhere else.
As for the surgery thing, would most of us prefer natural girls in an ideal world? Yes. However we all have different body type preferences and sometimes nature doesn’t give a girl that body type that we like. I like loads of different girls but don’t want to watch all flat chested thin teen looking girls all the time. Sometimes I want to see a Kiara Cole or Dakota Tyler, other times I want to see some tits and ass and, if the only way to get that is for those tits to be surgically enhanced, I’m ok with that. There’s not a ton of Angela White’s in porn with huge natural boobs, most need some help to get there. Also some women who did have great natural boobs when they were 19 years old find that gravity or having kids takes it’s toll so they get surgery to get those boobs back.
As I said before, the vast, vast majority of girls that VR studios pick to shoot are all natural girls. Having the odd CJ Miles or Kitana Montana popping up once every blue moon shouldn’t be the end of the world.
Will65 No, that's totally fair. You make a great point.
I'm not really speaking on behalf of the company so much as speaking as a member of a community who also is making content for the community. And as such, I'm definitely not saying constructive feedback/critique/etc. are invalid.
Regarding that feedback thread, I do think there's a difference between
"Does this dress make me look fat?" "Yes."
and
"Hello. That dress makes you look fat."
Solicited vs unsolicited feedback hits different. Anyone is perfectly free to use the second approach. I'm just trying to have a dialog about how maybe we can achieve common goals another way.
(PS - I feel like you and I have come a long way towards understanding each other in this thread and I'm grateful for that. My initial response was an attempt at what I thought was solicited feedback. I hope that's clearer now.)
Hunky-Dory listen to what people actually want rather than interpreting what they want from data.
My goal is to attempt both, but sometimes the two conflict. It's complicated.
But I take your point. I should listen more. I'll work on that.
Will65 I could say that we have way too many blondes, and that I hate blondes. That is also a comment on appearance, and could be taken as "derogatory".
No, it couldn't. Don't act like language was completely arbitrary since it isn't.
The whole rest of your post is pointless since you obviously don't understand that it's not about what you say but how you say it. Nobody says that you're not allowed to criticize things but you should watch your language because offensive language can actually hurt people. For example, don't call people names and don't put them in derogatory categories. You can voice your feedback with the very same meaning without using derogatory language. It's as simple as that and I think deep within you know that as well.
It's also pointless to continue with pointing the finger on me since I already admitted my mistake and took respective action. And by the way, I would probably tell Demi in a one-on-one conversation in real life that I didn't like her tats and that imho they're pretty ugly if she asked me for feedback on it (of course only hypothetical). That's imho honest feedback although I admit that it could also hurt her (it's one of my personal issues that I'm often way too direct without thinking through what the other person could feel but I'm working on it). That's why I deleted my post after thinking it over. I wonder though whether you'd call CJ "plastic model" in a personal conversation...
Anyway, since there's still zero self-reflection on your side, it's pretty pointless to continue this conversation. Obviously you have zero intention to improve your behaviour or even accept that there was something wrong with it in the first place.
Hunky-Dory over analising user responses and using tbat as data feedback rather reading the room
I truly don't see the distinction between "over analysing user responses" and "listening/reading the room". The two seem synonymous to me.
As an example, for my PMVs, I get comments that they're too aggressive and use too many effects/cuts, and I get comments that they need to be more aggressive with more cuts. They're literally taking opposite positions at the same time. I listen to all of them, eagerly, but the only way to resolve that conflict is to look at the data and see which style more people enjoy. I can't make everyone happy, but I can try to make more people happy.
That's really the best I can do.
Hunky-Dory Beep boop, my friend. Beep fuckin' boop.
I did not read the whole thread but data is the most effective way to get feedback what people like. Not even 1% give feedback in the forums. That is a stupid way to make decisions that have an effect on all.
Mutiny moderation of videos is most of the time a waste of time. How about you guys implement that at "-5" votes, you get an automated review request. This way you will catch the majority of tasteless comments quite fast.
Padarak How about you guys implement that at "-5" votes, you get an automated review request.
I don't know anything about how the dev team would prioritize/implement that, but I think it's a swell idea.
Hunky-Dory
You insulted me and I made a joke about it. I think we're done here.
