I'm a bit lost. Also, what do you mean, by 'porkie'?
"Porkies" is an English idiom meaning "lies". But with a
gay porn site named "Broke
Straight Boys", it admittedly goes with the territory...
I don't think BlueMedia management played their roll-out of bareback very intelligently : starting up with their fan-favorite performers was a sure fire way to get the forumites up in arms. And create much hand-wringing from anti- ("my poor baby", "BB money is evil") and pro-bareback posters ("why do forumites constantly remind us that the models are putting their health at risk for my enjoyment and ruin my fantasy?").
Maybe starting the trend using newbies for whom little emotional attachment existed previously would have eased the transition before having the big guns reappear in new condom-less updates. Kind of like what CF did with their bi-scenes and "just the tip" updates before going full bareback on subscribers.
Few models in the
Broke Straight Boys stable "do" it for me and I originally joined the site because I was tired of the other leading gay porn sites going bareback in early 2012. Like Stimpy, I think that young gay men discover gay sexuality through internet porn and that "written warning messages" at the beginning of videos or write-ups achieve nothing but give a modicum of self-respectability to the producers.
I also think that most of younger gays do not have the financial means to subscribe for content and consume their gay porn through tube sites : hence the very little moral qualms this gives to the admittedly older porn producers (CF used to call them "thieving little shits" when giving public interviews on the subject in 2011). Sorry, Stimpy : they are businessmen first.
I really thought (hoped?) that Blake's recent update would be rated much lower, not because of Lucas' histrionics but because he seemed so beloved by the boards, but to no avail.
So now I could hope that that any word-of-mouth increase for
Broke Straight Boys scenes because of bareback does not transform into additional revenues to BlueMedia because it mostly comes from a surge in tube sites visits (because let's face it, subscription cancelling seams to be very unlikely).
Or that the forum becomes so toxic with each bareback update that one of the site's selling points becomes endangered, forcing some business decisions to be reconsidered (an even unlikelier scenario I have to admit).
About my above stated schadenfreude : it's just the internet, so I don't think name-calling, trolling, flaming have any impact on one's virtual enjoyment (if a model or worker were to be berated "live" during an event because of bareback I would be forced to reconsider my position).
