Quality work doesn’t go unnoticed, at least not in the porn world.  With the release of the Top Comments Leader Board, we’ve recognized that Tube8 users are quasi literary geniuses.  The time has come to give credit where credit is due.  The newly released “Achievements” system, a product of the community’s suggestion box, rewards users for having generated creative conversation.  “Ass is the new vagina,” like that comment.  “Just because she has 4 cocks in her mouth doesn’t mean she’s a slut!” like that comment. “If only titties could bring about world peace,” like that comment.

Surpassing  5, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 400 comment likes will allow users to unlock ranks; Newbie, Rookie, Experienced, Pro, Veteran and Master.  After having received an honorary badge, it will proudly display alongside your username, accessible via the comment thread.   The next time you navigate through the porn banter, you’ll be able to separate the noobs from the vets. The question is, are you the touristic noob or the seasoned vet?

Drop a comment to let us know what you think about the new “Achievements” System. Do you have feedback on how to enhance the site? Don’t hesitate to fill us in here.

How does Tube8 plan to develop a best in class free porn site, while still having sufficient time to maintain a well-groomed front lawn? The ‘Suggestion Box’ feedback forum. You fill it with ideas and in turn, help us produce engaging porn-related features. The newly launched video time jump link is a product of one of your many insightful recommendations. Similar to YouTube, the link can be added in the comments section. How does it work? A user enters a time within the video duration (i.e. check out 2:34 in the video), the 2:34 automatically converts into a video link, which when clicked on, jumps up to the video player, skips directly to that point in the video and then begins playback. The next time you come across a slutty soccer MILF taking three loads simultaneously to the face, you won’t hesitate to use the handy video time jump link tool. Sharing video highlights with your Tube8 buddies has never been this easy. Easier than cracking your mother’s Wi-Fi password! With the aim of progressing towards an integrated Tube8 community, we look forward to delivering a well-rounded social experience. Continue to use the Suggestion Box and leave us a comment to express your thoughts!

Your feedback is very important to us.  The Tube8 team is committed to catering the site to our users’ needs and wants.  What is the best way to communicate all these brilliant ideas?  We’ve released an all new “Feedback Forum” that allows users to post new ideas, upvote popular ones and engage in direct conversation with site moderators or community members.  The page is designed to further develop the site’s community section, improve communication between the user and the website moderator but most importantly, maintain user satisfaction.  To help improve the overall quality of ideas, users are given a limited number of votes.  Once ideas you vote for are closed, your votes will be returned to you. We’re excited to hear your feedback so that we can begin to work on your most preferred features.  Click the link to visit the Feedback Forum! http://feedback.tube8.com/forums/191012-general  Also, don’t forget to click the “Comments” button below to tell us what you think about the new tool.

A popular request by our users, the Tube8 team has released the “Following” feature just in time for the new year. Follow users that have similar taste, post quality content or those that are simply friends.  With the site looking to take a more social approach, we’ve given users the opportunity to follow individuals who have either uploaded or commented on a video.  By following a user, you are given access to their catalogue of uploaded videos.   The new feature is accessible by logging into your account, clicking on your profile name in the top right hand corner and selecting the “Following” tab, located at the top of the page. If you are not logged into your account, you can still view users’ following lists.  Click on the “Comments” link below and post your thoughts!

Ask nicely and you will receive.  Our clever users requested a tool to track their comment history.  Why didn’t we consider such a tool earlier?  Well, that’s not the purpose of this blog post.  On behalf of our fans, Tube8 presents another segment of the commenting tool, the comment history tracker.  Have you ever left a remark on a video but was unable to find it a few weeks later?  Care to see if anyone is replying to your posts?  Would you like to monitor your impact on the Tube8 community?  You now have the opportunity to track comment threads and further engage in conversation.  Accessible through your profile, the ‘Comments’ tab consolidates all your video posts and displays them all on one page.  Moreover, you have the option of linking back to the video or thread, by either selecting the video title or ‘Full Comments.’  We won’t stop there.  With the added convenience of having a comment history dashboard, email notifications are soon on their way!  How do you feel about Tube8’s recent changes?  If you’ve got positive/negative or constructive feedback, we want to hear it!  Click on the ‘Comments’ link below and post your opinion.

Tube8 seeks to build an engaged tight-knit community.  We recognize that our users are curious about particular videos and would like to ask a question or express their opinion.  Why not discuss with your fellow users who have similar interests? The extensive growth of the Tube8 site and the recent surge in porn-related twitter popularity (follow @tube8) has driven us to create a public realm where users can openly discuss our porn videos. For these reasons, we’ve decided to further develop the commenting system.  You now have the ability to exchange thoughts, ‘like’ each other’s comments and reply to the thread, located below the video.  Keep in mind that you can also filter your search results by videos most commented on. The new feature is subject to receive further improvements in the upcoming months.

Tube8 strides to provide our users with the best possible browsing experience. Boasting a fine-tuned search engine can prove to be the difference between finding that memorable busty secretary and logging off due to disappointing exhaustion. We’ve continued to develop the search tool by adding the key elements of auto-complete & suggested searches. Have you forgotten how to spell that pornstar’s name? Looking for recommendations within an amateur context? The auto-complete feature offers up to ten related popular suggestions that can perhaps lead you to a hidden treasure. Users want free high quality porn, but most importantly, it needs to be effortlessly accessible. Tube8 cares what you think because we want you to keep coming for more!
