I've been around for almost a few years now and I couldn't help but notice the advent calander this year and a some of the newer content is lack luster to put it best without offending. Not sure how many took part in the 2019 calander but it to me was much better than this years and I wonder why. I figure right now COVID has slashed Totems model pool in half and that could be an bvious reason. Perhaps I am way off here and nothing has changed at all? What do you guys think?

I really think all of us with large collections run into the "hit music" mindset. The only cards from the past we watch regularly are the favorites and the best, we either delete the others or never bought them in the first place. For me this is about 25% of cards. I tend to WANT to buy every card but really should only expect 2 cards a week to be any good because historically that is my reality. Totem is still releasing the same number of top girls as the past but in the present you notice the flaws and duds while forgeting those sames flaws from previous years.

Hope to see more interesting girls this year.
Success to everyone this 2021!!

Bonne et Heureuse Annee a tous et chacune!

@Celine and @Team and @allmembers

The one just finished was a very long and difficult year; all of us, in one way or another, have had some people in trouble.
I therefore take this opportunity, as well as to reciprocate all of you the best wishes for a year that we hope will bring serenity, to thank you very, very much for having continued - despite everything - to give us the opportunity to spend the long weeks of lockdown always with beautiful girls and with the desire to return to live peacefully.
Many thanks to all of you: teams, mods, members!

Meilleurs voeux à toute l'équipe et à tous les sublimes modèles qui iluminent ces temps difficiles de leur beauté et de leur sourire.

Grande et heureuse *****ée à toute l'équipe de Totem et longue vie à iStripper ! 💋

We fall in heaven every day 😍😍

Tous mes meilleurs voeux pour cette nouvelle *****ée 2021!

What a great message which I thinks speaks to a lot of the comments in the forum.

I for one cannot wait to see what this year brings!!

happy new year to you IS

Bonne *****ée à tous !!!!

Why does it say preview ***** when I have just purchased some strippers?

I do know that everyone has there own tastes and mine are more in the spinner category Alice Wonder, Katya, would love to see Marilyn back etc.

@Cheddarcheese - by "spinner" do you mean pole dancer? If so, we do have the fabulous Naomi Victoria lighting up the scene......

Watching lovelies on istripper has been one of the few good things of the past year. Hope the new year will be better.

Happy New Year for Team !!
Wish you enjoy and be happy every single day :)

I really hope that the missing tags will appear soon, the sooner the better.

I second this.

Agree with CheddarCheese. I am definitely in the petite/spinner camp and I have seen a decrease in those types of girls here. I'll cut slack for the pandemic, but I hope we begin to see more of what brought me here in the first place.

Thank you all!
I enjoy your software everyday!
Greeteings to Everyone from Mexico City!

Thank you Celine and Team Totem.
Healthy and Happy New Year to everyone.

I agree with both points. I think it must have been challenging to find models with all that is going on in the world and I do defenitely feel that there has been a decline in quality as I feel like there are now a lot fewer "model level" dancers. I do know that everyone has there own tastes and mine are more in the spinner category Alice Wonder, Katya, would love to see Marilyn back etc. There has been a shift away from this type of preformer it seems which to some is a good thing and to others not so much.

Lets see what this year brings and hope everyone is well and remains healthy.

I see 11 SECs for 2020, not 10.

Using the Release Date filter on My Collection shows 372

I wrote that before you corrected your post. Your original list had 370 cards 9 of which were SECs.

Using the Release Date filter on My Collection shows 372

yes, and 15 of those cards do Not have the Discount.

10 of the 15 are SEC cards,
and 5 of them are regular cards missing the Discount.

if you use the Discount Filter
then you only See 365 cards from 2020 on Discount,
and 9 of them are SEC cards listed that shouldn't be listed.

So subtract 9 and you have 356
then add in the 5 missing cards and you are at 361 cards.

On the discount Page
these are the 9 SEC cards listed that should not be Listed

f0624|f0628|f0654|f0717|f0744|e1387|e1416|e1442|e1532

and these are the 5 regular cards not Listed that Should be Listed

f0575|f0604|f0605|f0613|f0619

I doubled Checked, and the Code Above with 361 cards is Correct.

It's not the increased price that bothers me, it's the flimsy argument that has been used as to why the card is more expensive.

My guess is that it is more expensive because Little Caprice was more expensive to hire because she could get more elsewhere. I haven't checked but I am pretty sure that Little Caprice was one of the models that various members had clamoured for making a return visit often stating that they would willingly pay extra for their favourite performer to do that - you should be aware that popular performers can use that very popularity to ask for, and get, higher payments. This is true for all for all sorts of performers be they opera singers, rap artists, actors or football players. Popularity is not the only factor, but it is a factor and can be a major one.

And I probably was one of them... It's true American girls tend to have better moves, but East Europe ones tend to be far more beautiful. And some of them has quite good moves too.

Moreover, if I have to think about the American studio experience, I remember a few quite good cards, but also many so-so ones, some pornstars totally past their prime, some fake drawn smiles and fake boobs.

Just as an exemple, I can not even dare to imagine how much did cost to Totem hiring a big star as Keisha Grey, but I also find her cards to be far less memorable than Melena Maria's ones (or Talia Mint's, or Belka's)

I am NOT predjudice when it comes to Women...whatever ethnicity, shape, color, etc, ....
YES! MMR is one one my Favorite Strokables......
But! I am A bit Partial to American Pornstars... I Grew Up on them......
Honestly, some of my Fave Istripper models are the Cherished American Models......

Totem, Please, at All Costs, get Riley Reid to your studios.....

The community was apparently against the idea that certain girls are "worth" more than eastern european or ukrainian girls.

Moreover, if I have to think about the American studio experience, I remember a few quite good cards, but also many so-so ones, and yes, some pornstars - but not so few of them where totally past their prime.
Briefly,I didnt find the far bigger expenses for Team to have been compensated by getting cards of exceptional quality produced. In many occasions, it was the opposite.

That said, I might also agree not to find the current "higher priced cards" to have anything really better than others... but they just help the current sustainablity of product (as SECs - which also have no particularly special features) do after a terrible year

The company (as everyone of us) had to survive the pandemic year.
So, it's rather obvious and understandable that we are going to see a slightly increased number of higher priced shows than we usually see.
I find this to be far better than a general price increase.

I remember the community jumping down my throat when I promoted the idea that totem should maintain an American studio but charge more for American girls because it costs twice as much to shoot the best stars. The community was apparently against the idea that certain girls are "worth" more than eastern european or ukrainian girls. I understand the argument but I would prefer if card price increases were due to technical challenges verses perceived worth or beauty of the girl. Little Caprice is no different than most of the girls from 2020, and certainly doesn't compare to Melena Tara in terms of talent.

On top of this there should be no increases with the continue gambling and loot boxing, investment has already been placed into the ui and coding for these ventures while the standard product has stayed unchanged for about 4-5 years. No improvements to the software outside of changes that assist the gambling features.

Little Caprice prob asked for more Euros to provide a service for us....I get it. It's All good

You read my mind @Nebal - that was what I was just about to suggest.

Imagine what one of the American stars of the porn industry would charge us 😆

@ComteDracula

Je pense que vous avez frappé chanceux ce matin - parce que vous aviez auto-ajouter activé, vous avez reçu la carte avant qu’il ne soit réalisé que le prix de la carte avait été fixé au prix d’escompte 2020. La réduction de 30 % ne devrait être que pour les clients Premium qui achètent des cartes 2020. Les cartes 2021 seront à 20% de réduction pour les membres Premium comme d’habitude.

It's not the increased price that bothers me, it's the flimsy argument that has been used as to why the card is more expensive.
Because she is a "star" is not a reason in my eyes. If the card would be longer or deliver special content I would understand.

And I pay nothing for my coffee. It's for free where I work.

Agreed. And I dont want to start any wars here but...
While LC is very sexy, pretty, and has a history here on IStripper ( I have a couple of her older cards) pour moi, shes kind of ....um...meh...and I really don't like to ***** ANY girl here.
Me personally... Theres Much better out there, again my Opinion, if she Rocks your boat, it's All good!

As an Aside, she does have some Very nice hardcore stuff on the Interweb...it's apparent she loves what she does.
And....I Will buy her cards, whatever Totem charges....IF I like the outfit she's wearing in some Non XXX cards
Again, My tastes

@ComteDracula, si vous avez acheté cette carte à -30%, vous êtes chanceux 😊
@ComteDracula, if you bought this card at -30%, you are lucky 😊

ou plutôt empressé de la voir 😊😊😉 ce qui vous a permit de bénéficier de la promo avant rectification

J'ai l'option d'achat automatique activé.

Je ne savais pas que le rabais était passé de 30% à 20 % pour cette carte, concernant les membres Triple diamond / Platinum.

À quoi est dû cette rectification, et est ce que d'autres cartes vont passer de $30% à 20% pour notre niveau en tant que membre ?

Merci.

For me the difference between 13.2 credits and the 11 credits I pay for most new cards is equivalent 17 eurocents. The cost of my daily morning cup of coffee increased today by more than that, namely 20 cents. I don't think the occassional extra 17 cents is going to put me off buying a card.

For me this card would cost as well 13.2 credits.

I'm with @TheEmu on this - I've lost greater amounts (than the value of 2.2 credits) down the back of the sofa!

For newer members the price difference is a bit more noticeable - and that's where the Gift Card gives them an advantage.
