Are scenes stats manipulated?

Marge1994 t seems like you might not have caught this yet. I'm pretty sure once you check out this link, you might see things a bit differently: https://badoinkvr.com/vrpornvideos/21

Okay, now I get it. The most recent video with 22 likes and the least number of views is rated higher than a video from 2017 with 984 likes. Probably not what you would expect from top rated sorting

Otherwise I really want to see the best content win. Whoever it is. Perfectly we never wanted to get in production and have it only for creators. Yet, we had to step up the game as there was not much happening.

doublevr Even if there is no way for users to verify that the number of likes on SLR are genuine, it came never to my mind to doubt them. The amount of feedback in the comments and forum for SLRO videos (positive and negative) compared to other studios gives the same picture.

And in the case of Badoink, it seems for me that this might be rather a glitch. What would they gain by manipulating the top rated order? All is Badoink, there is no competition.

For legal reasons the American companies that manipulate statistics must use words that reflect their new algorithms.

Anyone else notice that youtube has changed "Most Viewed" to "Popular"? This is because they are now enforcing rigid censorship for various reasons, but most specifically for advertising money from Big Pharma.

For example,

They are now censoring Elon Musk.

See how they have age blocked this video and it's no longer visible in the Joe Rogan feed... It has 67 million views and was not age blocked until recently.

SLR is censored in various unwise ways. For instance, they block "time stop" videos while keeping age-play "step-parent" porn. Also, they removed VRGoddess for having a few scenes with wine glasses, despite it being a company run by a young woman with her real life friends.

These are credit card company guidelines. They thrown Time Stop in with Alcohol and other stuff that could be interpreted as non-consensual. I'm not a legal expert on these things, so don't ask me why 'this' is allowed and 'that' is not allowed. Or why site X does, and site Y doesn't. 🙂

Marge1994 Been subbed to BDK since 2018, and I gotta say, they've always been a bit on the shady side when it comes to their rating system, and some other stuffs like never give us any deets on what kind of gear they're using, even though folks asked them a million times. And don't get me started on their so-so customer support.

I confirm they've messed with the ratings more than once without any prior notice, and now they canceled the count of the dislikes on their scene ratings. And that weird thing they did on page 21? It's just making things worse and pushing people away. Even though I always felt like I'm getting 95% money worth of what I paid for with my lifetime subscription. But now It's like they're trying to tell us, "This isn't your concern. Just watch the scenes and STFU." Not cool, man. Not cool.

do you mean their camera?

spacepirate Yep but that's just an example of the "being shady" part. People are already pretty steamed about this new sorting system on their forums.

[deleted] they use the exact same camera as the slr originals 6k scenes (zcam k2 pro)

spacepirate It's safer to assume you're just making guesses based on your personal comparisons. From what I can recall, back in 2021 when they started rolling out the 7k, shortly afterwards a bunch of the older 5k scenes magically morphed into 7k (obviously upscaled). Ever since, this question has been popping up over and over: what's the the native file? Is it 5k, an upscaled 6k, or maybe even a downscaled 8k? You know how people love to get crafty with editing softwares.

Here's my take on it. Somewhere down the line, they hit a resolution roadblock and put out an announcement about some editing issues and how they were working on a fix. So, if I were to hazard a guess, I'd say there's a good chance they're using the same rig as SexBabesVR and then working their magic in post-production. I'm not just pulling this out of thin air, try comparing one of their old 7k (formerly 5k) with one of the recently dropped 7k ones - you won't see a significant difference worth shouting about.

theres no guessing required. theyve posted at least 1 bts pic before showing the camera.

the native resolution is 2772p. the 6k and 7k versions are upscaled.

ever wondered why all these studios offer a 5k 2700p version? why that unusual, non-standard resolution?

there isnt exactly a wide selection of suitable vr cameras available...

spacepirate Fair enough.
