Kari Sweets

[DaleDoback]

I looked at the members area, and UC #15 was good, my apologies...

UC #13,14,16 were subpar in my opinion. But I'm still happy to get any new content from her.

 

[Phad]

I've paid for all of these sets the first time around, so if there's nothing to the update except a higher resolution, I'd call it subpar.
IMHO, a re-release should only be done on a set that has never before seen content. And that content has to be worth seeing (some kind of slip)

Again, I can understand a desire to just concentrate content down into sweet syrup of naughty parts, but I think that's butchery, and disregards everything else that's good about the tease content and the work this pair did. This was the best NN site on the net for years, and set the standard for both photography and model that others had to scramble to catch up with, and arguably no one ever beat it. To me, it was worth seeing then, with zero slips. Maddening sure, but the best girl, and best galleries.

Not to mention the fact that the UC galleries have twice as many photos as before, and the videos with 50-300% more unseen footage. No matter what is in that extra footage, as a fan I want to see it.

Yeah I'm definitely going to remaster the requests regardless of what is in the raw content.

I think you're too fixated on the "WHAT DID WE FIND" part of the process. Remastering makes a difference enough that I think it's worth enjoying a second look. 2006 internet was very limited in what you could do with video, and most people had ridiculously small resolution settings for their monitors. As a result, the sets we saw then and liked weren't anywhere near what they could have been. I mean, we certainly paid for something, but it didn't hold up very well in the original form. A crushed little 45 MB wmv is barely consumable to me as media. It's like watching TV through a glass of dishwater. I should put that on the tour.

Either way, i'm not knocking you. I know you want to randomly re-release all sets, regardless of content, to maximize profits. I just hope to get a jack pot set soon, because the last couple were hardly fap worthy.

I hear that a lot about NN and tease sites. It also tends to get me a lot of business advice. The whole niche is a weird phenomenon in the context of what else is available. People enjoy it differently, and definitely some not at all. If you thought original Kari Sweets content wasn't fap-worthy, you're not the only one on earth. But millions of people were still drawn to it.

ks content is fap worthy if there's something to see, but lots of sets are just bland. I'm paying $30 a month, so I for one, would like to see a bit more.
I am only paying for the "what did we find", and I couldn't imagine some fan only wanting higher res with nothing else found.

Do what you want holmes, it's your website, just my opinion. When I decide whether to give 30 to nikki or kari, i find myself choosing nikkisims because once a month she let's those titties loose, and she's "non nude"

 

[Karifan]

Slips and what we did find are an added bonus, keep up the great work phad!

 

[bjl12]

I actually cancelled recently because the content has been too infrequently updated and it hasn't been blown me away. None of the content is new (aside from the recent video - which was only a tease...I somehow expected it to be a tease with slippages since it wasn't originally released) and I just can't grasp my head around content needing 7-10 days for preparations and release.

I know @Phad does lots of other websites and I like some of that stuff too. On a side note, @Phad could you please make a zipset of the Butthole extravaganza with Brooke Marks? At the start of the Bubble Bath zip they teased with the idea and..well...you know I'm a butthole kind of guy :dunno: I would definitely buy that zip..as well as just about any zip from her. Wish Kari had done zips ffs

Also, could you try to get some zips with Meet Madden? Your zips are always top notch stuff!

As far as Kari goes, I will probably resubscribe in the future as more content compiles. Thanks for the hard work Phad

I agree very much with this comment. Money is hard to come by.If phad can't throw us a bone and give us something worth paying for Andi pink will be getting my 30 bucks.

Last call for the complaintrain!

In the context of pleasedon'tfuckingstopbecausewe'reallwhiningsomuch I can point out that I, too, have not been subbed, basically since I weighed in earlier. Not out of spite or anything, really. I wish I had reason to stay subbed, but so far sitting out still seems to have been the right path for me as Phad basically advised.

The only issue I have is it's ALMOST worth the $50 extra I would have spent over the last couple months, but it's just off by a little. If it were a LITTLE more consistent(fun math games can only stretch it just so far, Phad, haha) or were a LITTLE more procured, to maybe skip a dud set and tag it for later clean up when we're nearing the end in a year or two, whatever. I don't know, I'm not trying to tell you I know how to do it, you're the captain. Just uhh, joining in with the unrest with what I hope are sane and clarifying words about my experience.

But while most of what the reboot has officially caused me so far is anxiety, frustration, and subsequent boredom, that's all couched in the knowledge that as soon as something grand happens so much blood will be directed to my loins my brain will likely scrub itself of any earlier information and Phad will be a best friend for life. Just uhhh, we're in a lame twilightzone of extended potential and disappointment.

Seems like just a little value change in price, frequency, or quality could nab me, so it's hard not to pipe up and point it out, even if I sound like I'm repeating myself. Just wanted to back some of the dissident voices.

 

[DaleDoback]

FWIW, The people who are posting here are the real fans and they represent the people who subscribe.

Most of use are happy to get anything new, but it seems like a little tweaking can go a long way in making your members happy.

You guys scared him away

The whole [NN] niche is a weird phenomenon in the context of what else is available. People enjoy it differently, and definitely some not at all.

And it's even weirder now. We used to anticipate what Kari might reveal. No one expected nudity, but there might be something edged a little higher, a little more see-thru, or something sexier about the set, props, or costume. So we enjoyed that great face and sexy body. Like Phad said--the net's best girl and the best photography.

When there was nothing left to show without going nude, releases slowed to become unbearably infrequent... and then she was gone.

Today fan anticipation is not focused on an active Kari who "might change her mind" or "go out with a bang." That was authentic tease. Now it's on Phad and what he releases.

Phad could have put the world on hold for a year, combed through and organized everything he has of Kari, then released it according to his best, market manipulating master plan. Phad would have become the tease artist, stringing us along with "dud after dud" then releasing a slip or two to build excitement, then more HD repeats. Instead of the Great Liberator of Kari pics and videos, Phad would have been the worst imaginable sequel: Son of Felix.

But he chose what is surely the best available alternative for the fans without committing financial suicide. He and we would explore the "new" material relatively simultaneously. There's no guarantee with exploration. What you find is what you find. Does it have the same tease dynamics of a model gradually growing bolder and less modest? No. That ship has sailed. But it does offer anticipation without manipulation. (Now if tomorrow Phad discovers a POV video of Kari giving Felix head... yeah--I expect him to hold onto that one for a $pecial relea$e at a $pecial price!)

And don't forget, Kari's sets never were progressively more sexy with each release. Hell, we never even knew which body Kari might be wearing in the next set! Even in her best months someone was sure to be disappointed with each new set or vid. That's just reality.

So why make ourselves cranky butting our heads against the current reality? Of all the profitable options available to him as a business man, Phad has chosen the most fan-friendly one. If you don't enjoy the ride, enjoy the impressive fakes that are out there. But appreciate what we have, 'cause it's surely more than we would have ever seen without Phad.

Fair enough man, you make some good points. I can understand your point of view.

But how about some kind of schedule? I'm checking this forum and the website once a day like some kind of psycho. I've checked here like 10 times since friday, since I have no idea what day Phad will release something.

Right, I think ultimately we're all just suffering from the erratic schedule. It's only 20% off from what to expect each week. But that 20% before or after the last release was the week before makes basically 40% of the week where I end up opening my goddamn porn browser at whatever points we've managed to imagine it might happen this time. So literally speaking because of this I get an errant thought and manage to pull open a browser full of elicit tabs double or more what I normally would throughout the week. The punchline being that 9 out of every 10 of those are fruitless, and the others are us exploring and often not turning up much, as is the nature of the game. But so, if married to this method, consistency is probably the only missing piece.

Which he knows. He is trying to make us happy, but as it is averting my eyes and forgetting this is going on seems to be better than having to feel like I've got some weird kari addiction I'm tending to weekly.

Long time follower of Kari and check for updates on here every once and awhile. I think I joined her site for a couple months back in 2006, but then got bored because of lack of updates. From a casual fan perspective, I'd gladly shell out some $$$ if you find that she actually showed something other than a partial slip. I'm sure many people who are outside of what you would label avid fans would do the same.

Will keep checking on updates in the future though. Glad you at least resurrected some interest in this model. Can't knock you for that.

$30 a month for showing little or next to nothing- even with the new updated content- is just too much though.

 

[Phad]

Sorry for the delay. I normally work through the weekend, but I had to go watch that awful fight yesterday

 

[Phad]

Something I find interesting; three of you now have said the site costs $30. It's actually $24.95 a month, and so is Nikki Sims, (although Andi Land is $34.95). If you keep saying $30, you're going to convince me to screw with the price I've seen market research that suggests $24.95 and $30 are treated the same way, so I guess this backs that up.

ULTIMATE COLLECTION: "RED SCARF" VIDEO REMASTER

This remaster of “Red Scarf” was a request by Ben M., and Quentin. Ben wrote:

“In the Red Scarf "re edit" video in the collection, which I believe you weren't involved with at that point, there's a complete nip slip about a 1/3rd of the way in that is cut off after one frame. It would be great to see that video uncut!”

I must have read that too quickly the first time when I logged it as a request, because I didn't realize that this was already one of the “re-edits” that came out. I'm trying to avoid remastering those and just cover new ground. My bad.

But in any case, Ben was right to suspect there was more to be seen. Kari adjusts the scarf and flashes a full boob! Afterwards, it looks like she stopped the tape and rewound it slightly, then started recording recorded again. What you see in the new video is what exists in the raw footage. That total flash was missing in the “re-edit”, and of course in the original video.

There's also quite a bit of nipple slipping as she does hand bras and makes a top out of the scarf that WAS in previous edits, but of course the resolution wasn't very good. It's another one of these instances where her nipples were hidden in plain sight. They're small and pink, so they don't really announce themselves when they start sliding out.

Another thing noteworthy about this video is the section where Kari lays on her back, and opens her legs and grinds the air. That's a pretty sexy pose we don't see much from her, and there's a serious camel toe situation happening as she does it.

 

[Karifan]

Phad your a legend. That is all

 

[Kari fan]

We've officially crossed the nipple barrier,this is bigger than the moon landing. I'm a happy customer,looking forward to next week
