[Locked] FAKKU Subscription Questions
0
personally i used to really enjoy this site free but id never justify paying 12.95 so farewell fakku!

I'm sorry I ever gave this site money. I wasn't opposed to paying a bit for some high quality content but nuking 100% of the free content, even the fan works that *can't* legally be sold, without warning, pretty much kills any interest I had here. It's their site so obviously they can do whatever the fuck they want with it, but they'll be doing it with one less customer.

Kind of disappointing but it makes sense from a legal standpoint. I have subscribed to Fakku already but don't see myself renewing it every month as it is kind of pricey. Anyone know some good alternatives for free stuff?

Hello there. I want to become a suscriber but ir doesn't let me put the numbers of my credit card. Any ideas of why?

I could understand the 12.95 price tag If i got some physical media out of it, A monthly magazine or something of the sort. But for digital content while yes, I'm sure its expensive as a company to produce and don't get me wrong, It's great content. It's just not worth it as a consumer. I honestly would place my price tag at about 5$ a month for monthly content, even if the requirement for this price was purchasing a year in advance id be okay with it.
Your books are amazing and I will continue to purchase them because they are worth it. I will sadly not subscribe because it is just not there.
Now, if you could somehow throw in Video as well. I would consider your price tag correct and would hop right on board. I have to admit though, It feels like I supported myself out of the community.

You lost me. I enjoyed this site, I even recommended it to a friend. But you turned it tits up, I realize that you need to get paid so understand the whole subscription thing,and all the legal business. But throwing all the free stuff out the window was a abysmally idiotic. You threw much of your fans out on their asses,wasted a thousand libraries worth of books,killing the crowd who can not pay, loosing the history and soul of this site. if you would simply have added the stuff you have to pay for with the rest,people would have paid you if it really wanted it or felt you deserved it. Simply put don't force us to pay, make us want to give you what you deserve with quality content. and you were doing that for a while and I really wished I could have bought it then but I simply don't have the budget. But now I am banished from this place because you took your dicks out and pranced around burning your own legacy. I cannot pay therefore I have to go. And I hope and wisper to a northern wind (fancy viking way to say wish) that you tuck your dicks back in your trowsers, notice the trust you have broken,simple but important, and the past you forsook and repent,you can still save your honor by trying to fix this. I know that in the scheme of things I am insignificant but to me and many others you are not. Or you can stay your corse masterbating over the pile of money you got from people who pay you for masturabatory material, loosing any semblance of honor along the way and to me, honor is everything. Chances are that I will return and then I hope things will have changed for the better for me,the fakku community and for you. In the meantime I shal be doing my business elsewhere. Regards,
A disappointed perverted viking.
P.S. don't fuck this up more than you already have.
You ArseBiscuits.

So all the free content is gone.
Bye.
PS I tried to suscribe but when I get to page 2 of the process all I get is a blank screen.
But ditching ALL the free stuff was pretty crappy.

Hmmm. I'm seeing a lot more melancholy in this thread than there should be. Although I dislike the way Fakku is handling its public exposure, not everything is gloom-and-doom. But the benefits of the way Fakku has headed isn't instantly apparent either. So anyways:
Remember that this is one of the first times hentai has had even an inkling of a chance to be published and released wholly in the west, with proper translations and east-to-west corroboration. I can't think of a single time that hentai has gotten this kind of exposure and support, from either a western company or Japan. Wonderful authors/artists that were never seen outside Japan are now published in book form and we have simul-published hentai from their magazines. I don't even think Japan has access to most of their uncensored hentai from their magazines (but correct me if wrong). All of this is a monumental undertaking, and is good for hentai in the long run.
That may be hollow comfort for those familiar with years past, or those [unable to/not wanting to] pay for a subscription for all content, but hopefully with more support and trust from the artists and licensing, we may see more affordable subscription services in the future and/or more hentai may even be made available for free. Official live-action porn websites have paid streaming services of their videos. Months later, however, those same videos you paid to see in HD are licensed off and are able to be streamed on free websites, with ads and other stuff bringing in revenue for the original streamers of the content. Now, hentai and live-action porn are LEAGUES apart in similarity (from publishing and licensing to their distribution), and obviously there's no way to know what will happen, but I just wanted to bring up a comparison of what hentai COULD go through to what IS happening with live-action porn (a stable medium many of us may be familiar with). It's difficult to understand at times that we can only enjoy free porn in other mediums because of how those things are produced, supported and licensed. Hentai has nowhere near the level of exposure or support as live-action porn, and it is why hentai was mostly enjoyed as a pirated hobby.
Another comparison to make is to Music downloading and Anime streaming services. Don't want to waste your money on a full CD for only one song? Then people pirated what they wanted. But now with cheap, individual sales of songs by Apple and Amazon, etc., there's more incentive to just pay a dollar for a song you adore. But with anime, it was a bit different still. Anime was mostly seen in a pirated medium because there were NO streaming services for it! DVDs for anime were also atrocious, costing hundreds of dollars to own a season, depending on the anime. Even when Netflix, Hulu, etc. started streaming, they didn't have ANY anime, and it was like that five and more years ago. Even Crunchyroll, when it started, was pitiful in how much they were able to stream. However, now we have simulcast episodes of anime on nearly all legitimate streaming services, and now there are entire libraries of anime to view. That was a monumental change that only really came about and progressed because of the notice people gave anime, the demand for a consistent and legitimate market in the west, the reworking and deals of licensing, and so much more that I'm not even knowledgeable enough to explain. Even anime DVDs, which have always been a diminishing market due to streaming, are now dirt cheap ( a series sold for $200 dollars on dvd a few years past can now be found for $20 blu-ray).
Hentai has never had the kind of support and recognition as all the aforementioned mediums described. And so it is going through its own growing process now that it's starting to be a focus by both east and west who want it released worldwide. In time, it may become affordable enough for everyone to enjoy comfortably, but right now it is a fledgling in a precarious position. I'm not demanding everyone to throw money at the screen for payed porn, but I just want you to keep your mind open and understand the wonderful opportunities hentai have been given, even if those wonderful things aren't yet apparent. Be patient, have some faith in hentai and those trying to get it released worldwide, do what you are able to do to support hentai without needing to sell a kidney for rent, and of course, always keep your love of hentai close. Take care!

This right here sums up everything very neatly. Very nice job.

The thing that irritates me the most is your communication - or the lack of it.
You never say anything or warn about anything regarding the page or community itself on the front page. So even if I subscirbe, you still might delete everything because of reason Y and never warn anyone about that.
Seriously, if you try to be taken seriously as a business, then act like one for gods sake. You learned absolutely nothing from the last outrage. Do you really think any service provider or content provider would get away with suddenly deleting content their customers paid for? (Even if it was content that did not have to be paid for in the first place). Imagine Microsoft saying: "Eh, oh sorry, we dropped support for all previous OS yestereday. What you didn't know? Well, why didn't you ask?"
I really regret NOT having wirtten a bot to download everything new every day now.
Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against the subscription approach, and was determined to subscribe in the new year, but you totally do not deserve to be looked at like a serious business at the moment.
Edit: And yes, I DO know that you announced it back in the last purge. But then again, you announec a lot back then, you really think everyone put a sticky on their wall with "Save all your FAKKU content on 31.Dec"?
Do you remember on your own what Facebook and Google announced 6 months ago? No? Then finally learn from it.
You now are not only moderators of a loose community anymore. You have (potential and already being) customers.

This was of course in addition to the fact that it had been first announced months ago.

Wow, was wondering what happend when even content without tag "subscribe only" wasn't avliable. Wanted check my fav only to see it's empty now. First of all i tough i logged in on my 2nd account, but it wasn't that. Now im in this topic, read few last pages and now i feel regret. If i even knew all my fav would disapear in 1 sec, without warning... ;(. But ok, im fine with that, im adulto so i know shit happens. I probably wouldnt be able to find all what made me stick to Fakku for thease years, but some i'll find for sure.
Thanks for good time and have luck with that what you made...
