Like a lot of folk, I came here because a buddy said it was a good place to find porn. These days I rarely frequent it. High-speed internet and p2p content has really reduced the impact of the TB, I guess.
I don't see TFP as a porn site. I come here for the discussion - and this thread is a pristine example of why. I don't know of anywhere else where this topic would be discussed with such maturity and insight. However, I'm hesitant to introduce my friends because of the prevailance of the porno. Even if I give them the link to a great topic they have to sign up to read it.
I'm thinking that the TB to draws the masses and we hope some of them stick, while at the same time it acts as a deterrance to many personal invites.
A quick solution? Keep it, link it to the same database as the TFP but have it under a different DNS
