you have to keep in mind that each and every picture takes up space on the flirt servers. Don't need these servers to crash
Sorry, gofish. That is a very poor point, which weakens your case.
JJinUK helpfully pointed out (post #5) that you had raised this same topic in 2016 and 2017. In the 2017 topic I pointed out that pictures take up very little storage space compared with VODs.
It is rather annoying when you keep repeating the same points over and over again. Even more annoying when you don't appear to read and take on board comments made by other members.
Here are some facts:
1. the average photoshoot picture on this site is about 0.05 to 0.1 MB
2. there are 180,000 pictures in the Photo Archive
3. these take up about 9 to 18 GB of storage
4. the average 5 minute VOD on this site is about 25 to 50 MB (500 times more than a pic)
5. one performer alone has an amazing 16,000 party chat VODs currently available (*)
6, these take up about 400 to 800 GB of storage (assuming each VOD is only 5 minutes long)
7. so one single performer's party VOD collection is at least 40 times more than the entire Photo Archive
8. there are several thousand performers on the site
I hope that is helpful, and settles that particular point.
Having said that, I said in your previous versions of this topic that I agree that it is unnecesary for performers or studios to upload lots of near-identical photos from a single photoshoot. No argument there.
I also broadly agree that there is too much free nudity, although for opposite reasons to you.
In your many topics and posts you have pushed the "personality more important than physical beauty" and "nice words more important than tips" line. You are happy to chat to performers without seeing them perform. That is your personal approach to the site, which you are entitled to. But not to expect everyone to do the same. That has produced predictable responses from Z-Money, FC and others.
As I pay a monthly site membership fee I can see as much nudity as I like in the VODs of my 500+ private shows and the 200 free daily VODs. But I do like to see nudity after the show starts, rather than at the very beginning. So I support "no free nudity" from a different viewpoint.
Oh, and I absolutely loved the wonderful, varied photo collection of current Bitcoin pin-up boy Antonio Valentini before he left the site. He included just 2 or 3 naked photos. Lovely
(*) I mentioned this in the General Discussions forum. Members were complaining about individual private show VODs being purged. I said that Party and Group show VODs could be purged. They take up a vast amount of storage space:
