At least I usually don't read - or bother to even open up - any threads without that li'l paper clip thingy signifying that a report's accompanied by pictures!
And even those with the li'l paperclip thingy, I most of the time also just skip those reports which does not indicate it also includes some real pixs.

So there you have it!!

A tip for the newbies - that if you want me to read - and possibly give out K's, then you'd better have some pictures to accompany your report!!

OK OK, I know, I know....I is only one guy.  
But methinks/betcha there's other SENIORS on this forum who does the same.
And I emphasize Seniors as I know that for newbies and members, it don't mean nuthin' as you guys cain't see pictures anyways!  
But remember, it's the seniors who ARE able to give out karmas!!  


OK - fire away!!

SEAJ

I do read reports without pics and even give them karma.

But knowing first-hand the amount of effort it takes to get
good real photos and attach them to a report, I am inclined
to give additional karma to those reports that include them.
It's only fair to do so.

As an International monger, I am a bit more picky.

I tend to look at the reports in all sections with pics and maybe skim through the report, but will read the ones (generally in the International section) that relate to places I might visit. Sadly, I just don't have time to read all the reports from HK when I only go there once or twice a year. Obviously, leading up to a trip, I will 'study' the HK reports more closely...

what's the matter ? feel numb down there without looking at pics ? just spend more time in the AV section !!

a report is more important then just pics, but of course, having some pics along
with a good report is a bonus ! ... OK OK, I know, I know....I is only one guy.   

Joe, seems like you dont "read" the threads with real pics either...

CLICK HERE and see posts #10 & #12...

LOL!

you raise an interesting point, I dont spend as much time looking in the newbie section as I do in HK Reports or CHAT. When the title of a thread catches my eye I will read it but I guess that means I miss out on a lot of good info.

i guess most user scan tge forums for the things that interest them. i also look for real pics but read most reports. reports without pics i also sometimes do no read andif you look at the numbers i believe most users do the same. sometimes however tgere are great reports without pics which are way better than others with pics

it definitely helps to have the pictures to visualize with the reports, it definitely helps the report provide more value for my time haha.

not all reports are well-written so the pictures more than makes up for the so-so reports =)

Agreed: a well-written, well presented thousand words that provide a vivid, detailed account of the girl
and the session can be worth more than a picture attached to a perfunctory report. As Twice says,
a picture is a bonus, especially if it is not available elsewhere.

Only seniors posting their thoughts on here.

What happened to the newbies and regular members?

Hmmmm...!

SEAJ

@ Mister:
Yes, a pic tells a thousand words, but a good report tells a thousand times more than the thousand words that a pic can tell. Of course, having both is great.

@ KW:
To tell us you're more likely to click into a thread if it advertises real pics is one thing, but to tell us that even when you click into such a thread you may not bother to read what the poster has to say...? What can I say, except I agree that there are many other members like yourself on here, who don't appreciate people's efforts in sharing.

What would you do if we don't have real pics on here, like a few years back? Would you leave us alone then, and return to the multimedia-rich ISG?

Your encouragement that all reports should come with real pics can make bros not bother to report just cos they didn't get any pics. This of course works against the forum, and I think quite lowly of you for that shallow piece of advice.

It's NOT a matter of not appreciating efforts by others to share - its just not that many of us have the luxury of time or the need to appreciate words for the sake of words.

How many different ways are there to describe the act of screwing?  If you need to read the written words to get off - and there are there amongst us who I'd imagine needs this - OK. But as for myself, a short description as to something unique that happened plus the summary is what I appreciate more.

A "thousand times more than the thousand words" (**Note** this is what you wrote prior to your edits! Refering to your opinion the written word being a thousand times more valuable than the 1,000 words that a picture is)  is precisely what makes me - and I guess other people - to instead shudder and just scan. Perhaps just a product of guys who loves seeing his own masterpiece work of words/inner desire to prove himself a great author?!

As for pictures - the fact of the matter is that it IS available here - so I'd suggest you move along with the times and accept it as fact.


And what's with this being stroppy and telling me you think lowly of me and telling  to go wherever??  I'd say that such attitude by a senior is what is a real disservice to any forum.

You have your opinion and I have mine - no need to tell me off just coz you don't agree with mine.

Morning joe...

No, I'm not talking about the novellas, since I agree there are only a number of ways to describe sex before it all seems the same, and that the unique stuff is what is great info and interesting to read. You would miss this if you continue to be only interested in the reports that have pics.

Move with the times? I referenced the past only to talk about the future. I am perfectly happy with having real pics on the forum, as you well know.

I was using a harsh tone because imo your advice is bad for the forum, not just because of a difference in opinion (for which I would use a more courteous tone).

I think I've become more discerning in my reports reading in that I read in that I try toi read on Wgs that I'm interested in or havent been reported on.

I've become more reluctant to write reports unless I'm able to get pics as it doesnt have the same credibility of one that has. I've also streamlined my reports with less desrciption cos as bro SEAJ says, theres only a number of ways to write about a sesh. I do try and include the unique bits like smelly breath or fishy minges!

I mean, I get bored writing my own reports, so I can imagine how broing it is to read it. All I'm really trying to say is "this girl in the pics, good/bad fuck!"

Naturally if I find a gem, you bros would be the first to know!

CL, even though you says that a well written report is far more valueable..the karma given to posts with/without pics differs a lot. as people start to see that the value given to a report with pics are sometimes significantly higher, there will be a few who will write less, and concentrate on more pics
just my p o v

I agree and can also see that - it's natural behaviour. But this is not what I have an issue about (at least on this thread!)

I repeat: Advising bros to report only if they have real pics to share works against the forum.

I guess when you look further, what I'm having difficulty with is that seaj confesses up (kudos to you, joe, btw) but then instead of saying like "Hey, so this is the likkle thing I'm confessing to, but I'll work on it, bros! Don't worry!", he's like "This is the flaw I'm confessing to, so you people better adjust yourselves accordingly..."

Then what is it EXACTLY that you have issues with?

- That I'm advising guys to try their best to post up pictures to accompany their report?

- To please get to the point when writing up reports - any reports  whether accompanied with pictures or not - and not fall in love with their own writing/lingual abilities?

- That I'm somehow discouraging guys from posting if they've got no pictures?

- My advise to guys is if they want to get the greatest amount of karmas, that they should include pictures.  I never said don't post up a thread unless you got pixs. In fact, I've noticed quite a few recent reports which now includes at least the DB pictures (which automatically enables that paper clip thingy to appear on the list) PLUS references/links to reports that does have real pixs.

- Look-it, one of the most important reasons why new members post up threads is to get Karmas - and whether you like this or not, it's the fact; and this being so, they're gonna post up reports whether they've got pixs or not.  And if they've got no real pixs - then they find ways and means to "embellish" the report by providing links, DB pixs etc - ALL THINGS which makes the report easier to look at and understand what the gal is all about.

And your statement "I referenced the past only to talk about the future." How?  How are you referencing the past - when there was no pixs posting capabilities on 141 vs NOW when not only is such pix posting capability is a fact, but is actually why a lot of guys find 141 attractive.

Am I so wrong to advise guys to try their best to make their posting attractive and readable - which SHOULD assist them getting karmas/getting up in the ranks??  To the point that you find it perfectly OK to berate me publicly?  Look-it you've got your opinion and I've got mine - it's fine to debate it point by point but NOT OK to start getting all stroppy and making it as if your opinion is the only one that MUST count here.
If we left it up to you, I'd think that you'd be very happy if you can go back to the "good Ole Days" when writing abilities is the prime consideration for appreciation.  Well, this is no longer the case - and like I said, you've gotta move with the times.

Just my POV/IMHO

If the above is not tantamount to advocating that bros only report if they have real pics, then what is it? If I've misread it, I'll be happy!

As for your accusation that I live in the past, that's just not worth discussion, since it's wrong. I love pics, I've contributed to the development of the forum with my own.

I also think there is too much emphasis on real pictures in reports being rewarded versus real information.

In fact, the forum is a little skewed that way, as SEAJ puts it, the only reason why newbies post is to get karmas, and it's easier to attain this if you have pictures.  This is so true, and it's also a little warped.

A healthy forum encourages sharing information, opinions, insights, whatever.  The way the system works here places too much emphasis on pictures imho.  The reward system is also skewed towards you behind in a certain group, you'll get more karmas if you make lots of friends that are high level, since there are the only ones able to give karma.  Self perpetuating cycle.

Sometimes this forum reminds me of those old pirate sites with the ul/dl ratios.  You'd think we're sharing torrents here.

I'm not complaining, since I don't really care about my access level, but that is how it works around here, for better or worse.

Sorry for my poor English... I would say the report is a base, the pictures are bonus.  The additional efforts to take the photos, sort out the photos, are deserved more K, I have no doubt about this.  But, I cannot accept the report without details, only pictures, I'll also give lower K or no K.  This is not a good comparsion between the report with or without pictures on the K given.

Report will tell us the detail about the girl services and attitudes, or funny stuffs.

Pictures will tell us how the girls look like.

Hope the bros don't give up the report even no pic, I was also kept on posting the report even no pic is available, because the key part is the message about the girl passing out except her real face.

- Just my two cents...

ONLY report if they have pixs...........???!!

Where did I say that?  I plainly said if you want  to have a better chance of getting K's then YES, please post up pictures.

And I have further clarified that if one does NOT have real pictures, then there ARE other ways to embellish the report with DB pixs, links to other reports with pixs etc etc.

You're saying its wrong for me to advise new guys what makes a report better/easier to read/enjoyable for others to look at?  And your advise?  Write a thousand times a thousand words - THAT's your advise - right?!!

Straight, to the point with the pertinent data AND anything out of the ordinary - that to me is great reporting.  Not just words for the sake of words.

If I remember correctly - was it you or some other Bros who told me in my earlier days that - Less is more?
