Well, thanks in large part to all the new reviewers, ADT passed the 1500 mark this week. I hope more people jump in and start reviewing soon. Kudo's to Lunacy, Reason, Feels So Right, Black Coffee, Speelie, and all the other contributors.

Man alive! I watched at least 5,000 skin flix since my boyhood, and became sorta kinda impotent to movie nudity. Unless the chick is REALLY hot, the sex-only kind of porn usually bores me to death. Hear me now and believe me later: a quick glimpse of Anna Kournikova's undies turns me one more effectively than a parade of bare buttocks. Go figure. I think I'm getting old.
No, it's not that you're getting old, Planet, I'm sure anyone who has seen 5,000 pornos would feel the same. For that matter, you don't have to see nearly that number to become bored with it. There's been a couple of threads where I'd say the majority spoke up about leaving more clothes on, or at least for a longer time, more tease time and build up, but most of all more DIVERSITY.
Oh, and yes the reviews are coming in fast and furious, so we should start seeing more diversity there, as well. Good job! But I'm just a toy reviewer, and get no respect.
Thanks, but I think the fact that, as of this post, 414 of those reviews are yours, you deserve the applause. I do have to ask though...With over 400 reviews since September, where do you find the time? The mind boggles.
Wow I knew HD did a lot of reviews, but that's almost 1/3 of the total! HD, I'm afraid you will burn out, and would like to know if ADTers will get first bidding dibs on your porn?
TigerDragon "I respect you Miss Blonde. We should let our toys play with each other on occasion."
Thank you TigerD, although it's been my experience that girl's toys and boy's toys don't mix too well, sadly.
Planet Sex "Hey, I used to review toys too! I did a long article about Kenner's old line of Star Wars classics, and the G.I. Joe reissues, and... Huh... waitaminnit... when you say toys, you don't mean toys as in, like, toys, huh?"
Well, I also have one I call G.I. Joe, but mine is anatomically correct............though I fear anymore talk about toys will get us transfered to the 'Nonsense' forum, but yes, we also review 'toys'. Just click on sextoys in the left column.

Intewesting.
Hey, Dumblonde, I need to talk ta ya in private, but the watchamacallit e-mail-user thingie doesn't work. Can you contact me, pwetty pwease with two balls on top?
Smartblonde, keep in mind that you are respected enough to get a loaner Sybian by a company not known for cutting corners or offering price breaks. IIRC, you were the driving force for the toy reviews too. Remember how frustrated you were about a few issues way back?!? Now, every move you make is front page news here. Not bad for someone who claims to get no respect (I figured you were a fan of Rodney Dangerfield).
Feels So Right, while I have reviewed a lot of movies here, I am one of many. I have tried to encourage others to review more because this site is about a community-not just a few people-and the whole really is larger than the sum of it's parts here. While Steph and Drew provide the background, the moderators maintain order, and Smartblonde and many others (myself included) contribute reviews, everyone can help make it a better site. I stick with reviews and a few forum posts from time to time-and I'm happy with my place here. My workaholic nature in everything I do spills over into my fun (and reviewing, for me, is mostly about fun). As long as I have fun doing it, I'll keep reviewing. Whenever I start fretting about a review in progress, I know it's time to take a break (which can last a few hours, days or whatever). I don't watch sports or much other TV, have cut way back on videogame playing, ditched a few bloodsucking witches over the last year or so, and decided to review about 500 dvd's. (I'm closing in on my goal, yes?) I sincerely applaude all the reviewers, even when I disagree with their opinions (as I do a lot), as many hands makes light work.
Smartblonde, if I start to burn out, let me know. If I decide to take a break from porn for awhile and decide to dump a bunch of dvd's-I've let you pick a dozen or so and send the rest to Steph for distribution. (Astro will get first dibs on a couple titles too) I'm a packrat about keeping stuff but again, if I do lose interest-you'll be the first to know.
Thanks HoustonDon, I feel better already. Didn't mean to hijack your thread with my whining, maybe I was having a PMS or a BSW moment, hee hee. And though 'every move I make is front page news' is quite an overstatement, I'm sure you would also be on the home page if you were pictured on a sybian, as well. With the reviews picking up momentum like this, any bets on when we hit 2,000?

Just want to say I wish I could make everything you all do front page news, but then it would take years for the front page to load :) Rest assured that all your reviews (sex toys and DVDs alike) are being read by thousands of people all over the world - some reviews have been read as many as 13,000 times. You have all saved people money, time and pain. Plus you've given the porn world a few laughs along the way :)
Thanks to all of you - and welcome to all the new contributors (there have been quite a few recently!)
Smartblonde, you're as much a part of this site as anyone and don't fret-you didn't hijack the thread. Your opinion is always welcome in any of my posts. The next 500 reviews for the site should come quicker now that more people are feeling comfortable with contributing reviews. ADT has received about 100 reviews so far this month so I suspect that we'll hit the 2000 mark by August (maybe Sept-near my 1 year of reviewing anniversary).
Steph, you have a knack for picking the right articles for the front page-a good balance is tough to get. I know that a lot of people are very fond of the special prices/sales stuff remaining there and the most current stuff is good to have as well. Keep it short and sweet like always and I think most of us will be happy. BTW-that is a cute icon...
