    Not illegal, but I don't want them here. This thread is being locked and the post with all the links is being deleted. Links to Raunchy Fuckers are absolutely OK. Links to amateur stuff is completely OK. Links to commercial porn are not OK - they undermine the funding for this site.

    I've mellowed a bit since I first started this site. Most of the major tube sites are actually legal. The court cases have happened and as long as they take things down quickly, they're within the law. That wasn't so clear back when this site was started. Since you guys were bothered by them, I deleted a lot of the discussion that led to bbfan74's comment.

    After taking a close look at the off-the-shelf software I was going to use as the basis for bbbh.com (and then heavily modify), I've decided to write my own code from the ground up. It'll be a big challenge, but in the end I think the result will be better. One of the new design concepts in websites is "mobile first". Typically mobile sites were after thoughts. Mobile First changes that and you design the mobile version first and then layer on a few extra features for desktop users. That will be the approach I'll take. What this means is it'll take a little while longer, but once the core is there, feature enhancements will be easier. In contrast this site is based on an established forum script (vBulletin). It's got a robust feature set, but it's horrendous to modify - to the point where I just don't bother. BBBH will be leaner with fewer features, but I want to really be able to get in there and tweak the features to make them cutting edge.

    The changes have to be made using the desktop interface. Then you can switchback to the mobile interface.

    One thing that's interesting is that about 15% of the people who are choosing to be permissioned to see bug chasing and gift giving stuff are choosing not to be permissioned for the chem sex stuff or groups. So the good news is that people are filtering out the stuff they don't want to see, which means they should like the site better than they did before.

    The whole conversation was off-topic for this thread and we moved into it's own thread.

    No. It's not really "migrating over" - I'll just do a dump of user names and email addresses. It's more about reserving the screen name. The order that I'll be handling things in will be: rawTOP.tv users get their names reserved first (sign up there - it's free!) Breeding Zone users who have >100 posts and have been active in the last 90 days will get their names reserved second. The rest of you can get in pretty quickly if you watch this thread. Just use the "subscription" option for the thread and have it email you with instant or daily updates so you see what's happening quickly. Remember, it's probably going to be end of January before I let anyone other than beta testers on the site for real. My first goal is to have really good profile and search capabilities. Then I'll layer in a bunch of other stuff.

    Read this… https://breeding.zone/threads/24536-Access-to-Non-Fiction-HIV-Fetish-amp-Chem-Sex-Is-Now-Opt-In-For-All-Users

    That thread explains how to access those sections.
  12. rawTOP
    Once again, do not post here unless you're having a problem. Your access is not restricted. Please change your email under "Settings" in the upper right corner of the page.

    I've separated all these comments into a new thread. These issues have been bugging me for a while, and as of today the issue should be resolved. All bug chasing and chem sex stuff is now opt-in only. So by default users won't see any of that unless they specifically enable it. The details on how to opt-in are here... https://breeding.zone/threads/24536-Access-to-Non-Fiction-HIV-Fetish-amp-Chem-Sex-Is-Now-Opt-In-For-All-Users

    Your account is fine. No need to respond here unless you're having problems. If people request I can delete the post with their email as soon as the issue is resolved. Not everyone has filled in the BBRT/A4A option in their profiles.

    I'm changing who can access what on the site. Don't worry, if you want to see everything, you still can, you just have to jump through a couple of simple hoops. The Backroom is being locked down. By default people won't see what's in it. You now have to explicitly say you want to see HIV Fetish and Chem Sex stuff. It's not hard to do… Click on "Settings" in the upper right corner. In the sidebar, click on "Permission Groups" under "My Account". Then click the options for "Chem Sex" and/or "HIV Fetish / Bug Chasing / Gift Giving", and then click "Join Group" and that will give you access. There's another option for "User Groups" - they're generally restricted because they're a bit of a free-for-all. Why is this happening? Simple - some people are turned off and offended when they see things like bug chasing. The solution I've implemented should offend no one, but still gives you easy access to whatever you want to see. (I'm kicking myself that I didn't figure out how to do this sooner!)

    For years now I've sorta ignored bouncing emails. I'm just now getting around to marking users with bouncing emails as "awaiting email confirmation", which means you won't be able to post anywhere but the Tips & Tricks section of the site. If your email is not up-to-date, please update it now, by going to "Settings" in the upper right corner and choosing "Edit Profile" and then "Edit Email & Password". It'll save all of us a lot of hassle. If your account gets locked down because of a bouncing email and you find you can't do things like post, just reply to this thread with your new email address and I'll change your email address and send you an activation code. (Check your spam folder if you don't see it). If you've forgotten your email address, you'll need to do something to prove you own the account. One option is to message me on BBRT or A4A from the profile mentioned in your profile here. Short of that, I'm not sure how you'll prove your ownership of your account - so don't let your email address here go out-of-date! In other related news, I've deleted everyone who's "awaiting email confirmation" who hasn't logged in in the past 120 days and who hadn't made any posts. That amounted to over 2500 accounts. So realize, if you wait too long to resolve email problems your entire account can get deleted.

    ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! Breeding Zone is not a bug chasing site. Yes, there's a bug chasing section for those who are into that. But the site is for barebackers in general, not specifically for bug chasers and gift givers. In fact I'm very close to making the bug chasing and chem sex sections by request only - something you won't get by default. Your comment makes me think I need to make that change sooner rather than later.

    I'm not going to impose one concept of BBBH - it means different things to different people. But there does seem to be a central core (giving/taking anal loads), so I'll focus on that. Bug chasers will be welcome. But I am planning features where if guys don't want to see a particular type of guy (say a bug chaser) that those people can be filtered out. The lesson I've learned from this site is don't scare people off. So that's my approach with BBBH.com. Stealthers do their thing on non-bareback sites so they're not really an issue. I mean you can't stealth someone who wants to get fucked raw and take your load.

    I'll simply link to the sexual health section on here. I plan to use one of the more popular chat scripts. I think you guys will like it, but I'm still investigating all it's features. But it would open up in a new window (I think). Logout and you'll see all those sections you mention are not visible to google or non-logged in members. The only exception are the fiction sections. In other words, what you're asking for has been done since day 1.

    What device do you have that supports Flash, but not HTML5? Are you sure it's not the other way around? iPhone/iPad only support HTML5 video. Androids briefly supported Flash, but now only support HTML5. Now, within HTML5 there are different encoding standards, but that's largely worked out these days. That said, most paid porn sites properly support mobile these days. Some do it through separate pages, others do it through "responsive design" where the page changes to meet the environment of the particular device. Where you may find problems is on the free sites. Glad to hear my sites work for you. My older blog posts were never upgraded, but the new ones all support both HTML5 and Flash.

    PEP doesn't really work unless you start it within 72 hours. Sounds like it may have been a longer for you if you then discussed it with a few people. I think here you'll find most people say be proactive with your health, not reactive. Get on PrEP if you're taking loads. But being poz isn't the end of the world. Just take care of yourself and you'll be fine one way or another.

    I don't think it's my place to change the meaning of BBBH. So it'll continue to be Bareback Brotherhood. Except in a year or two when I put out an iPhone app then I'll call that Bareback Bunkhouse. It will be pretty tongue and cheek so everyone will know Bunkhouse is just a joke to get past Apple's censors. It'll be "the app for gay cowboys looking for temporary accommodations". I should be able to say things like "looking to be on the top bunk" without it being considered sexually explicit. Only "family friendly" photos will be in the app, etc. The idea is a bit too kitsch to be the concept for the main site. The reason I really want to use Brotherhood is because of what it embodies. To me #BBBH is a community united through the giving and taking of anal loads. The power of the Brotherhood concept is that you cum inside someone and you become part of them. Then they cum inside someone and pass pass part of your essence on. Or to put it another way, the more you give and take loads the closer you get to what it really means to be part of BBBH. And to be clear, I think the concept has been around since at least the late '90s (and probably pre-HIV/AIDS as well). It's just someone finally gave it a name and an abbreviation. Just like the term "bareback" didn't exist before HIV/AIDS - bareback was just regular sex. IMHO, this really isn't a concept anyone can own. At most a few of us are custodians of the concept, but our job is to keep it true to its fundamentals.

    Discussion of the general issues surrounding BBBH is welcomed. iBi did what he did and the discussion of him and his actions should end. But I welcome the discussion of BBBH in general. What does BBBH mean? Who should be entitled to use the term? What are the limits on use? etc. To your point - a collective membership mark is owned by a organization. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_trade_mark In this case there is no legally recognized organization, hence even that kind of trademark doesn't apply. I'm 99% confident that my use of BBBH is 1) legal, and 2) within the bounds of what most in the BBBH community would say is a good, acceptable use. I'm pushing forward with the site as envisioned.

    I have reason to think a lot like you do. There are threads on here and blog posts on rawtop.com where I explain why that is. And I was really suspicious of PrEP when it was first announced. BUT at the end of the day there is 17 years of data with people on ARVs. The initial issues with early ARVs are largely no longer found in current ARVs. The ARVs today are pretty safe. And all those years of data tell us one thing - no ARVs = a quick death, taking ARVs too late = and early death, and taking ARVs before you go below 300 t-cells = a pretty normal life. Yes, there's a lot to be suspicious about when it comes to big pharma. But ARVs work. That much is undeniable.

    There are a lot of things that are said in this post thar are just flat out wrong. I'm closing this thread. The issue can be discussed over on this thread… https://breeding.zone/threads/24456-iBlastInside-just-threatened-to-sue-me-over-BBBH-com
