A script site for porn videos…sighs…pedantic or what? So, there’s some exceptions, jesus christ…so that’s a reason not to better organise the site/searching/filter system?
@hugecat How is that any different to people adhering to any other tag? Nearly every post actually does have a script/video length. Sure, those won’t be done unless people add them as they see them and go along, but every post going forward could/would include them.
Whatever guys, dumb suggestion, seems like your both finding excuses and reasons not to do it for the sake of it. Forget I brought it up.
there’s still plenty of room for continued discussion… To leave give up after a few comments of push back will definitely not lead to any change happening.
It will always be in the interest of the community, but only when it’s been properly implemented. Otherwise it will ends in futile effort and a mess to clean up.
There is a feature request posted on Discourse Meta, which might be worth tracking.
Even if such features are available, we need some Python magic that scans for time code in article and adds the tag, in replacement for an admin gulag.
I guess we could add the missing tags over a few weeks / months for older scripts if necessary. There is a bunch of people here who can edit tags.
It can be solved by adding multiple tags to the topic e.g. “<10min” & “10-30min”. We could also add another tag “var. length” for these kind of topics.
This can be easily enforced by people who can edit tags on others posts.
To sum it up I think 5 tags would cover everyone’s taste:
<10 min - for quick scripts
10-30 min - for medium lenght scripts
30-60 min - for long scripts but not crazy long
60+ min - for super long scripts
various length - for posts with multiple scripts
I will also add that enforcing a name pattern for titles would make this place more user friendly. For example: “Pornstar name - Title - Site” e.g. “Sasha Foxxx - Blowjob POV - Pornhub / Spankbang”. Probably a little too late for it, but with some effort it could be done.
To sum it up I think 5 tags would cover everyone’s taste:
Determining the most helpful buckets is probably the most important thing because it’s going to be as painful to change this as adding it from scratch.
My initial impression is that 10 seems a bit high for the shortest bucket and 30-60 and 60+ seems maybe unnecessary?
If I’m looking at youtube as an example, they allow filtering by
Under 4 minutes
4 - 20 minutes
Over 20 minutes
I think that having something like <5 would be more appropriate than 10 since there’s a lot of very short vids shared, especially 3d/animated stuff.
i guess technically someone could figure out a plugin to do custom fields, but that’s seems like a decent amount of dev work and also we’d have to make sure we don’t introduce any bugs that fuck something up
Would it be a good idea to make a poll with few options and see what people find most helpful? Yeah, it feels like 60+ tag is not necessary when I think about it.
Hi hi, I agree that being able to filter scripts out not only searching would be good though I think that having one for a minute or less is good to have as well. I say this because I’ve found a lot of scripted videos that are 4:30 mins long that I wouldn’t find then via ignoring <5 tags
Other than that I agree with all the suggested ones.
I believe since talks stopped occurring here it hasn’t been worked on as I think there wasn’t enough agreement or support for it to be done. I’m still for it as it would be useful for myself since sometimes I’ve been wanting to find only minute long videos or less and only have the preview image being portrait or landscape as a half sign if it might be that.
Hint hint post replies and such saying your for it might get the ball rolling, I can’t talk back and forth between myself since then I’m just bumping the topic.
Booru styled tags
examples can be found on: rule34.xxx,danbooru,
could be beneficial such as
Clips => 2 min
Short video 2-5 min
Long video 5 -10
Show length 10 -20
Feature film 20+
Which is how I personally keep my folders, so im biased
Tag Voting
If tag voting was a thing where enough ppl have to say that this script has a tag then it increases the “strength” of the tag. something ive seen implemented on a good many sites
Tag Merge
also if there was a merge for similar tags every once in a while it could help with redundancies and mis-spellings that would be a boon.
such as creampie == Cum inside, crempie, ejaculate inside, vaginal creampie)
(The stash app has the similar tag merge feature and its very nice.)
I believe this would make it much easier to filter and sort here. although im sure implementation would be more difficult than concept creation
Tag voting I feel is just something we can already do by simply making a site feedback thread and have a “like” requirement for the proposed tag to get further examined to be added.
I presume the short tags your referring to are the ones to put on videos that are for videos below the 10 minute mark?
I personally would find having video length tags to be useful as when searching I have an idea already as to the length I’m up for looking at for said search. I liked @Husky’s last suggestion of 5, 5-15, 15-30, 30+ although I think it requires one for 0-1.
Tags can be created easily but one should consider how to update all existing content to tag them accordingly. Probably need some web scraping scripts that detects the duration suggested in the topic.
Enforcing a durational tag also means -1 slot for other descriptive tags. The limit should be increased to 7 imo.
My main issue with video length tags is that the standard varies for different content and people. As I mentioned above - animations are measured in minutes whilst JAVs can be ranked in hours. Maviarab suggested 0-10 minute as the minimum, Husky suggested 0-5, Ratattack suggested 0-1.
Another thing to consider is - should these tags are in place, how practical will they affect daily browsing and how convinient will they be to use? Because Discourse’s search feature is super clunky, and I felt like a lot of the tags will just end up in people’s mute list (which still shows up in search unless specified otherwise).
If by any chance we can set integer to tags and filter it with a slider (like an actual video site), that would be helpful 100%. But this is Discourse where features are plain and plugins are pain to maintain.
I wouldn’t want nor expect the duration tag to be applied retroactively due to the workload it would require…nor would I want it to be mandatory really since the tag limit is quite small in my view as well.
The reason why I think we’re so divided on the minimum length though is due to more so how flexible we are on the length of videos we normally watch. As in the past prior to having a Handy I was never touching any cock/fap hero less than 30 minutes but afterwards I would though still not touching anything less than 10-15 minutes…Now with the SR6 I’ve been constantly going to the HMV/PMV length videos which usually are 3 ish-6 mins in length at times. Sometimes I’ve looked at shorter loops but I don’t think muiltifunplayer is the right application for them since there’s a second or two before the SR6 stops and starts again from the end of the loop I’ve found so far while Handy didn’t.
I also agree that Discourse’s search and in my mind by extension notification filter systems are super clunky since categories/tags I’ve muted come through due to one tag I have in my “Watching First Post” section.
So yep having a slider or something to have it be more strict would be useful as I would have thought that muted filters went before my watched filters did.
