I wasn't really sure which LPSG forum to post this in. I just stumbled upon Intporn and (what I assume are its sister sites) ErotCity and PornCoven when I was searching for a particular vintage gay porn film.
I'm a little confused by their set up and was wondering how y'all use those forums vs. LPSG. Some random questions for those of you in the know...

- Firstly, do you think those forums are just a front for the File Sharing service they require you to subscribe to in order to view the videos people are posting? If so, that's fine, the rate is actually reasonable considering the amount of content posted there.
- What's up with the super generic thread names/titles/subject lines? For example, I stumbled upon a thread there with scans from Asian porn magazines -- a very specific topic. But the thread title is something super generic like "Gay pics and videos" -- virtually all the threads are titled this way. I don't know how anyone finds anything on there. To me that experience is analogous to flipping through the channels on linear (live) tv -- never knowing what you're going to be seeing on the next 'channel' VS. LPSG, which is much more like the streaming/on-demand era in which we search for and watch a specific program. Is that the intentional 'vibe' of those forums?
- Why are most of the threads formatted in exactly the same way with multi-shot / thumbnail screenshots followed by an embedded video link? Are they just super regimented about their posting requirements or do the contributors actually... work for them or something? (God, I sound like a conspiracy theorist)
