  3. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Mods,

    While we should always give attention to the official Phun models here, it seems a little odd and perhaps a bit unfair that official Phun models that are no longer active here should still be given the attention and respect of those that are active at Phun.

    Additionally, while uploaders definitely need to read the rules to avoid posting content of official Phun models, if an official Phun model hasn't been active for over a year, it's seems a tad harsh to come down on members who inadvertently post materials of inactive official models. I'm paraphrasing, but the quote "authority no longer exercised, no longer exists" seems apt - if official Phun models haven't been active for over a year, they shouldn't expect to be treated with the attention and preference of Phun models that have been active, right? I mean, there over 30 official Phun models that have been inactive since 2009 - why should they still be given the same preferential treatment of active official Phun models?

    I bring it up mostly because I've seen members posting material of inactive models and getting dinged with violations. A part of me agrees with it; you've gotta read the rules if you want to post properly. But another part of me thinks - heck, if Mellisa Matters hasn't even come to Phun in over 2 years, why should she be considered an official Phun model anymore? Plus, it could help cutdown the workload of the mods if they don't need to deal with reports of posted "official Phun models".

    Anyways, not a big deal to me, just something I've noticed over the past few days. Thoughts?

    You're not the first to raise this, Mokky! It goes back to the forum's early days, and it depends on the nature of the "arrangement" with these girls. If the deal was that by simply registering with phun they could prevent there stuff being ripped off to here, then that closes the issue - that was the deal! If however they were required/expected to maintain a presence, then your comment would be valid.

    I suspect it's already being discussed by the Admins. It's just a matter of priorities!

    It has been raised before, but in the end Cayne felt it was better to have them on the list, regardless of activity, then to remove them.


    I'm guessing Eva Angelina is the biggest inactive phun model on the list who's content is repeatedly posted.

    Her and Melissa Matthews... and in Melissa's case, she's still quite active on her own website. I guess Phun isn't that important anymore for Miss Matthews...

    Anyhoo, thanks mods for answering, this thread should be locked.
