Just to address something…
16 08 2010I thought I’d take some time to clear up some goings ons with both myself and Andrew, my fellow blogger boyfriend who’s been helping out with updating the blog lately.
First of all, I need to address the removal of some of the content. After several threatening and severely derogatory emails from porn studios I decided to remove all copy-written materials from the blog. Yes, this removed a fair amount of the content (31%), but it also removed the possibility of law suits toward myself, which is something I strive to avoid as I’m sure you can understand. And while I believe that my blog was wrongfully attacked instead of the tube sites that actually host the videos, it didn’t make the threat any less real.
Second, I understand not every video will float everyone’s boat. I certainly don’t find videos and think to myself, “Oh they’ll really hate this, I should put it up.” I try to bring videos that I think are interesting and that turn me on. A lot of my time is spent searching the internet to find videos to bring to you, and so does Andrew, who is busy updating his own blog, The Male Star Blog. We both have full time jobs, go to school, have friends etc. Andrew even runs his own photography business, in which I play a fairly big role. We both drive nearly an hour to/from work and Andrew even works 11 hour days. When all is said and done, it doesn’t give us hours and hours to search for decent videos. Sometimes, when I don’t update, its because I haven’t found anything worth posting, not because I’m too lazy as some have suggested. And if you have been on sites like xtube recently, you’ll understand that everyone who has a means of recording themselves having sex/ jerking off/ sticking foreign objects up their ass, is doing so (an exaggeration for sure, but you get the point). There is a lot of junk to sort through before a good video can be found. Simply put- when neither of us update, its because we haven’t found anything worth bringing to you.
We certainly appreciate everyone’s support and love the fact that you guys come back here, day after day for some release. We aren’t perfect, but we are trying our best to bring you good, interesting, amateur content that will help take your mind off of everyday junk and onto some hot stud getting it from behind/ jerking off/ blowing a huge load. That being said, criticism is always welcome just remember this isn’t the kind of site that has teams of people in cubicles, all with stock in kleenex, working 9-5 to find porn. Oftentimes its after a stressful day at work or after date night when we sit in our living room saying to each other, “Hey, I think I found a good one. Oh never mind, now there is a goat involved.”
Thanks for your time, and thanks for coming back time and time again. We will continue to try and find the hottest content to bring to you.
————————-
Update 8/19/2010: We just wanted to take a moment to give a HUGE THANK YOU to all you guys! Your feedback and show of support over the last couple days has been amazing. Expect a lot more from The Banana Blog in the very near future as well! We will only go up from here! Btw, I’ll respond back to your specific questions soon as well.
***Oh btw, We’re looking for original amateur content. If any of you guys are interested in making some extra $$ for 5 – 10 minutes in front of your webcam, contact me for more details.
AL
The site’s great and you consistently find vids that I haven’t seen anywhere else.
Keep doing what you’re doing!

I appreciate that you care enough about your readers to explain to us factors of your life that my prevent you from keeping up with the blog as frequently as you would like. I honestly believe that it’s none of our business, so I really do commend you for being open and honest with us even though you don’t owe us anything.

I think your blog is great, too, and I sure understand the trouble you two have to go through to find stuff worth posting. In the main, your postings are pretty damn good! Don’t let the bad guys get you down—

The question is; is this blog lucrative for you and your blogger boyfriend? Or are you truly gay porn santa clause?

that sucks (and not in a good way) that you had to delete all those truly hot vids especially since you can go to xvideos and they have alot of them on there too. my favorite was “Baily and his friend”. I can’t find that one anywhere else

First, the site is free.
Second, it’s time consuming to go through all the material these guys go through to bring us the one or two nuggets we all enjoy.
Third, who has the right to impose deadlines on these guys?
So . . . for those complainers, please delete the bookmark to this site. These guys deserve a lot of credit not complaints.
Thanks Banana Blog. You’re my favorite.

If I don’t dig what you’ve newly posted, I can count on the hot stuff from the past I can always revisit!
Thumbs up!

I just want to thank you greatly from the bottom of my heart because I’ve never found anything hotter than the porn you add onto your site. Seriously, keep up the fantastic work. Not only do you add hot porn but it’s a variety of porn to keep everyone entertained.
Haters will always hate, that’s their sole purpose in life. Just continue to do what you’re doing and know that there arestill PLENTY of people who get off to your updates :D

I’m sorry but I do not think that your excuses are justified. I work 2 jobs, totalling at least 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, and frankly I think I am entitled to come home to some entertainment on bananablog, yet you are CONSTANTLY failing to update for long periods at a time. I TRULY don’t have the time to be looking around millions of websites for masturbation material, whereas you really have absolutely no excuse for not providing me with anything worthwhile.
I find it very disappointing that in today’s world you can be so self-centred and un-willing to stretch out a hand to others within the gay community. NOT impressed.

@Jonathan,
Your a dick. These fine people dont have to do shit. He was about to get sued! Maybe you shouldnt be so self- centred and understand its a service, not a right. These guys are doing a great job. Where is your out stretched hand to the gay community? Loser. Maybe you should find your own porn. Or… I dont know… get laid?

Hey Al,
Much appreciate all the time and effort you and yours put into presenting clips on this site. It obviously is no easy/simple task, and consumes hours of your time.
We are lucky to have you take on the challenge, and your work is much appreciated.
I have found many, many arousing clips thanks to you.
It is disappointing that the ‘vendors’ believe you are taking away from their success, and that they should threaten you with legal action. Far from pleasant.
Keep up the good work posting whatever you can. There are many of us out here who truly value your postings.

You guys have had one of the best websites for true blogging. I really liked the content you put up there, they were from major studios (but found on xtube etc). I hope you guys keep putting up some nice videos, and get through all the legal work through the studios easily. Take it easy guys, and do the best you can do. Truly though, I liked the older videos you used to put up. Take care and =)

I come to this blog daily whether you update or not, and I will continue to do so whether you update or not, because it is an excellent blog.
I normally don’t comment here, and I’m sure there are plenty others who don’t also and would want you to know that you are doing an awesome job. Keep doing what you’re doing man.

Love the blog and I appreciate the effort you put into it…. If ever I’ve complained because you weren’t posting (silently, to myself – I would never post anything like that) it was only because I was disappointed that you hadn’t found something new and fresh and hot! Thanks again!

Hey—I love this site….While I realize it is impossible to satisfy everyone (especially all of us faggots), you do a phenomenal job on this site- and do not let anyone get to you—this is FREE guys–so if you have some complaining to do—go pay for it somewhere. I love coming on here all the time. Thank you.

Dear Banana Bloggers
Thank you for this website, and thanks for making it possible for so many viewers to post their comments. I like the fact that almost all the comments are supportive, and supportive of each other. That means a lot to me. I posted a poem on another of your blogs and got positive responses. Here is one of my latest. I hope you like it.
clear water
yet it was my feet
that searched
for stones flat enough
to take me through
the fast running stream
anxious
as I was
my eyes catching up
with the older ones
as they crossed
the reaches of sand
to get to the crests
of surfing ocean’s waves
here, take my hand
let me find the gentleness
of you
your thumb
smoothing my skin
the warmth
of our palms
eloping
along our bodies
now overtaken
with un du lations

I grew up in Seattle and went to the Pacific Ocean coast on holiday as a kid – very happy memories. I now live in Leicester, England. It is Pride here later today. We have a lot to be proud of. Thank you for your integrity, Banana bloggers.

just to say, thanks for this blog. u always find good stuff, n most of it gets me off when i have time! while i like searching the sites for hot stuff, it’s good to come here, relax, n let u do the searching. u generally find vids that i would have chosen if i’d spotted them, but would in many cases have missed if you hadn’t spotted them n put them up. thanks again. what ever u guys manage to do is way more than fine with me!
