Maybe it is time to rework some older shows to better quality, where is possible. Use this time for something productive.

I would be down for this 100%

Ugh. Thanks for sharing, I guess?

Let's share names of shows with audio that was amazing

I am bored, I made up this game (while drinking beer)

set up:
click and ***** the model to the far left of your screen
open the now playing tab and move it all the way to the right (so it is difficult to see the model and tab at the same time)
go to settings and make sure the left click is "next model"

Here are the rules:
click the model
name the new model in less than 5 seconds (check if you need to..)
click
etc.
How many can you name before you don't know the name or get it wrong?

post your number and who you got wrong.
I missed after 12

We should never be able to buy SEC.
If we could buy them, what would be ***** about????

(joke)

hmmm, perhaps it may be a good time to relaease some of the SECs to help offset?

I'll second that! Never can seem to get the jokers or SEC cards any other way😭

I just checked and there are still 91 cards to be released. At the rate of 6 per week, it will last until mid july. That's three and a half months. Hopefully the situation will be better by then and some of the restrictions will be lifted.

I agree, slowing the release is a good solution. I am also happy that this conversation has slowed down.

cheers to all.

Here another one from Liana Sexy legs.

This is fine with me. Let`s all stay safe, and enjoy the shows.

5 to 6 shows a week is absolutely understandable, given the current situation. But I'm also very supportive of the remastering of older cards and would even agree to pay a little extra if the extra work warrants it. I'm watching the 1046 card of Jessie Jazz in 3K right now and it's exquisite compared to her 1045 card in 1080p resolution.

Are there many more like these in 3K?

I love everything about this site so whatever sustains new content through these extraordinary times is fine with me.

I too would support getting remastered cards in lieu of new cards.

This can be done by the team without flying anyone anywhere.

It keeps the team employed and mixing a couple remastered cards per week in with the lowered amount of new cards will help stretch the new cards out if this thing drags out longer than currently expected.

It also lessens the pressure off of production and QA when shooting new girls eventually does start up again.

A superb Idea from my point of view.

I wholeheartedly support the plan to release fewer new cards per week for the sake of both the Totem staff and the girls that would risk being ***** while travelling. In fact, my preference would be for Totem to release only 5 new cards per week along with 2 remastered cards.

Most casual iStripper users (i.e. non-collectors) probably don't even have these older, lower-res cards on their radar even though the cards feature a lot of great performers. Remastering cards would incrementally increase their base cost and would provide the opportunity for Totem to put them in their Releases carousel with a tag of "Remastered" instead of "New". This would increase their visibility and boost sales when new material is scarce.

For those who haven't seen what remastering can do, compare the following cards.

• Aika May: 1670 (1080p) vs 1669 (3K)
• Naomi Nevena: 1632 (1080p) vs 1633 (3K)
• Dayzee: 1599 (1080p) vs 1601 (3K)
• Jessie Jazz: 1545 (1080p) vs 1546 (3K)
• Mandy Match: 1354 (720p) vs 1358 (1080p)
• Natalie Mendes: 921 (720p) vs 924 (1080p)

I would definitely buy cards featuring Carmen Croft, Rebeka, Jasmine and Miela if they were upgraded from 720p to 1080p and more of Aika, Naomi, Dayzee, Jessie Jazz, Cherries, Angelica Diamond and Tracy Gold if they were upgraded from 1080p to 3K.

Thank you totem team. I am just happy that there will be new shows at all in the coming weeks, something to look forward to that will brighten my days.

We're all a little stressed and it's only getting worse and I just found it incredibly petty and self centered to see someone(s) whinging about losing out on the ability to save a few pennies or not see the same amount of product when there is a serious world wide situation the likes of which virtually no one living can compare to any other recent happening.

A person would have to be well over 100 years old to remember the flu of 1918 and while we have had serious outbreaks of other maladies more recently, none of them really went worldwide like this one has. And it ain't over yet by a long shot.

Let's all just be happy to still be looking down at the grass instead of up at the roots and even happier if we all are still looking down a couple months from now. And not worry about missing a few discounted iStripper cards between now and then.

Long live iStripper!!! 😉

I've Been Down with met art since I was 9ish, yeah I started early. Met art is truly the Best, F*** what everyone says about virtua girl being better or deskbabes. Its about the art not getting off, though that much comes with. I passionately Love the art of the lady and strongly believe Nothing about a lady should be Smothered But Cherished. My lady may not wanna share me, But I want the world to see her Art. It's Like A bowl Of Poke' That's so Slamin That you'd be an Evil person to Not show it off. Thanx istripper. Already I got alot of amazing ladies in my life I've never had a desire to go to a strip club now, I got a kicc A** Desktop You got my loyalty ...

@pumpdude48 It's ok, thank you for clarification.

@HansSachs

While it may seem like your were, simply because my post came directly after yours, you weren't my specific target as there were others earlier who made more specific complaints about premium members missing out on shows...and losing their ability to buy discounted shows and implying that they were getting ripped off.

I do however apologize to you for my post looking like you were my specific target. That wasn't the case.

Cutting back by one show a week? Only?
I'd guestimate partial resolution of the outbreak as early as June. Not sure what your content stockpiles are like, but I'd expect a steeper cut into the number of shows/week, or a crew isolating in the studio to keep things moving while waiting for resolution.

Meh, you know your situation, I can only speculate and offer armchair commentary based on poor assumptions and missing information.

I'll just add my 2 cents for the times:
--
Be the pessimist - be ready for the worst.
This lets any surprises you have be pleasant ones.
--
Study up on the Spanish Flu. There are tons of parallels, which can help you understand what is to come, and what 'the worst' may be. Sports games cancelled? Check. Lots of advice on how to interact without spreading the disease? Check. Schools closed? Check. ... the list goes on, and includes things from later in the epedimic than we are now. Want to see the future? Look at history.
"Learn from history, for you shal repeat it."
--
Be safe.

I already knew all of that, and by the way also I was not whining at all. I agree with the company's obvious choice of temporary reduction of weekly cards.
My own controversy was not about Totem, but about a post by another member who said that, for him, it would be better to definitively and forever reduce the production to only 5 shows per week, because he likes that more - opinion which I simply said I disagree to, as I have the right to do.

I find it amazing that members here are whinging about only 6 shows a week and then demanding an immediate return to 7 shows as soon as things cool down from the Pandemic.

You guys think Totem engineered this whole thing just to screw you out of a few discounted shows??? For Christ's sake quit being so selfish and understand that no one wants less shows but most of us will be happy just to see Totem survive this and get back in the swing of things later this year.

This thing is likely to take several more weeks to calm in Europe and then it's probably going to be AT LEAST several weeks more before any kind of meaningful regular/affordable international air travel is available to bring models to Paris for Totem to shoot.

Air travel is likely going to be affected for months. Just because things are calming in Europe, the pandemic will still be happening in other parts of the world and the primary reason this thing spread so fast is international air travel. So airplanes are likely to still be heavily restricted, scarce and expensive for quite a while to come.

I'd be happy with 5 shows (or even less depending how many are actually available) a week starting today and spread them out longer which will also help Totem keep at least something fresh on the shelf while they bring the girls in, shoot them, process the clips, send them out to QA, fix the things QA finds and then put them in the lineup for release. This process usually takes a couple weeks to do RIGHT and if they rush it then the cards aren't of the best quality and you guys whinge about that. There's no up side for Totem anywhere in this scenario.

Older people can get forgetful, so tend to be repetitive, possibly by posting multiple times.

I'll drink to that!!!

Why three topics about the same thing?

Et si le nombre de filles pouvait tomber définitivement à 5 par semaine, ce serait encore mieux

NO, thanks. It's ok to get only 6 cards per week during the emergency, but after it then please give us back 7 ones again.

company can then sell them for an higher price to new members.

That's exactly what they did with the previous remasters. The 720 cards were at one price point (what is it, 16 minus the diamond discount), and once they were upgraded they were more expensive (20 minus the discount, I think). Same thing with 1080 to 3k if memory serves.

They stopped doing upgrades, so you're probably right that it didn't make financial sense to keep doing it. We kept those cards at no cost if we already owned them. Must be those new customers weren't buying.

@Dorsai6 At present there is not financial motivation for Totem to remaster old cards. I'm happy when they do, but I think a financial reward might result in more of this activity and I'd be very happy to pay something to convert 720p cards that look terrible on my screen to 1080p cards that I find acceptable. If Totem followed my suggestion, you could choose not to pay and you'd be no worse off than you are now. I'd pay and consider it a bargain.

This is an excellent suggestion. VR, the a new product has been the preference of Totem bso farn, but the resolution upgrade may be done without meeting models, so even now.
Why don't you make a poll @Dorsai ?

Haver si ya pasa pronto y no se contamina mas gente y todo vuelve a la normalidad 👍

I'm cool with six per week. I'm just glad that you got Carolina Abril again before this whole thing happened.

Ca, c'est une super bonne nouvelle 😀
Et si le nombre de filles pouvait tomber définitivement à 5 par semaine, ce serait encore mieux (du lundi au vendredi) 😊
Dans ce dernier cas, je pense que je peux rêver...

what I don't like about some of the older shows is how loud some of them are compare to some other ones
there's no volume you can set at which you would be able to hear the "sexy talk"
and not completely freak out the neighbours with the crazy over the top moaning
so, the kind of remaster I personally would love to see is to the audio primarily

So much this. I watch shows without sound for this exact reason. It's freaking me out how suddenly models in older cards would start screaming at the top of their lungs.

Thanks for letting us know. I hope your entire team is safe and can ride this out peacefully.

Not only the smile 😉

That's for sure 😀

OT
And also this is what happend when you decide to lay your Hands on the Booster Packs
or the Redraw Packs.
You can't decide by yourself the Card's you get, but you have the benefit of the lower Price.
But what's more Important, in the last Booster Pack which was this one

https://www.istripper.com/de/forum/thread/44204/1?post=653218

i had the ability to Reload 500 Credits so that i could get them all.

And i was really really Lucky in Fact in all of the three Free Cardsets was
at least always 1 Card i ever wanted, but always forgot to buy on a regular Shopping Tour.
And also in everey Pay Card Set were always one or two Cards i also ever wanted.

So it was a great Surprise for me 😊

And in the end you go to your Collection after several Weeks, open up the Card and realize
OMG! What a damn cute Beauty ❤️

And this what happend today with Linda Elisson.

So i like these kind of Offers, you have to take what you get.
No whining, No Discussions, Take it or go away. And with a tiny little bit of Gambling.
So from here a Fat 👍 to these kind of Offers.
OT/

Understand the situation so have nothing to say about the decesion.

I have myself had cancellation from models that I was going to shoot with becuase they can no longer travel to Sweden.

Six Shows a Week for approx. 6 Weeks is O.K. - in this first worldwide New Virus Pandemic. - But Let us pray and hope for almost everyone and especially also of course in Europe and North America, that the High Peak of the Pandemic in Europe and USA/Canada will be reached within the next 2-3 weeks. Maybe 1 week earlier in Europe than in the USA ( because it started also a bit earlier in Europe). Let's hope the very Best and that it will be the first and last Pandemic of such a kind for many years or a few decades - best however - would be for the whole 21st Century but that maybe some Wishful Thinking - due to a few reasons. Sure is - that we need to stand together in such troubled and ***** Times ! - Despite of this I want to Note - that I do have the unspecific feeling that this new Corona Virus is in Truth not totally natural... To Totem - I-Stipper I want to say - it's probable the very Best Erotic Online - Show Programm in the World - let's keep it that way - in total I-Stripper is an Erotic Gem basically for all Peoples who love - most of all - Female Erotics - and this are of course Males and Women too. Therefore I wish Totem-I-Stripper and the Crew all the very Best - now and then ! - To all kind Female Erotics Fans in I-Stripper please stay safe and healthy - Good Luck to all ! 👍👍🔥💓🔥❤️👍

Stay safe and enjoy. 👍 👍

Not true, company can then sell them for an higher price to new members.

You're right. I have no idea how Totem views the economics of remastering effort, but I certainly like to see more old cards remastered.

@SetFuego

In the beginning it sounded like all lows should be conjured up to highs. So, everything is fine. 😊

As usual, the problem with a Text based Conversation 😇
Maybe we should switch to Picture based Converstaion 😈

@Dorsai6 let's put it differenctly: personally I am and will be not willing to pay any charge in order to upgrade a card which I already own.
In any case, it will be Totem to decide if to charge us for such resolution upgrades or not. I find they should anyway remain totally free of charge at least for Premium members.

At present there is not financial motivation for Totem to remaster old cards.

Not true, company can then sell them for an higher price to new members.
