My question: Do you think we should merge Ember, Heather, and Heather Oaks? A cursory exam of box covers shows a girl who looks like Ember on several of the titles listed for those other two. But I haven't done any indepth examination. She doesn't have a very distinctive face, which makes it tough.

Also, Ember made her porn debut in the summer of 2001, when she was 18 years old, not 1999 as currently listed by IAFD. The movie Ripe 5 is incorrectly listed in Ember's filmography as having been released in 1999. Ripe 5 is a compilation that was released in 2004, not 1999. (For example, in Amberlina Lynn's filmography you can see that Ripe 19 and Ripe 22 are correctly listed as complilations by IAFD). In Ripe 5, Ember is paired up with Jade Hsu in a lez only scene that is originally from the 2001 movie White Panty Chronicles 18. Therefore, Ember's IAFD page should read:

Years Active 2001-2003 (Started at 18 years old)

It appears Dane/Forbidden re-released/re-packaged the entire "Ripe" series in 2004 with different box covers and different performers. I'm finding reviews from Den and Rog from 1998 on the earlier releases which make no mention of the girls on the newer box covers.

Volume 5 is a good example, and that explains why Ember's 1999 starting date is erroneaous. She wasn't in the original #5, but she's in the 2004 re-release.

Can anyone out there confirm this? If this is indeed fact, we're going to have to create a second entry for each of these titles and mark the 2004+ editions as comps.

I have a headache and I haven't even started on them yet!
