That's not a bad thing by the way. It was how we cultivated future signups if you think about it. And that's the nightmare of the damage that has been done.
For the last 2 to 3 years all those teenage guys have stopped coming to tgps and instead go to tubes like Pornhub.
It used to be they came to us. And they had to wait years to get old enough to finally get a bank account and a debit/credit card to FINALLY get to see full scenes. And when that time came they were READY to buy.
Obviously that has now changed. And we have already lost at least 3 "internet generations" of new customers.
Even if all the free full scenes came down today, it would still take a couple of years to bring in the next batch of guys legally able to buy a membership.
On a side note: I always thought: "Wow! If only my tgps had been in existence when I was 15 years old it would have been GREAT! Instead of jerking to that one worn out copy of Penthouse I stole from under my Dad's bed." And that was just a few pics or a 10 second clip on a gallery.
I can only imagine how GREAT it must be for teen boys now with full scenes.

not sure I would post openly how you were cultivating young boys who were not old enough to buy into becoming porn buyers once they were old enough to get a checking account/ credit card.
And that 50% of the surfers on your tgp was underage AND that wasn't a bad thing.
it might be a fact, but i wouldn't go around broadcasting that like it part of your marketing strategy to cultivate under age users into potential future porn buyers.
