I will remind to all that Totem did publish the list of best selling cards of 2020: out of 20 best sellers, vaste majority has been XXX - and moreover, almost all first placed ones have been XXX.
https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/46902/1?post=698311

XXX is here to stay...

Very well deserved!
She's so beautiful and skilled like a succubus that sucks you dry while she ***** you with her gorgeous eyes!

Almost five years now! I am still new here.

The more features, the better - and more people pleased.

That may be true, and quite probably is, but it is not necessarily so. There are those of us that liked VGHD precisely because there was an almost total absense of sexualy explict content.

Yes...well. I haven't played this particular game, but I have played past games with this exact same language.

My post from April of this year:

"The cards are selected among the most recent ones not in your collection and released more than 30 days ago."

There are 458 cards I do not own which were released in 2019, 2020. or 2021. These are the ones I would consider "most recent". I tried a test spin. The four cards offered were released in 2013 (!!!) 2015 (!!!) 2017 (!!!) and 2021.

iStripper is great just because it has all.
Here we can see sexy dance, nude dance, tease, stripping and yes, masturbation too. Why not?
The more features, the better - and more people pleased.

By the way, most XXX cards contain 2/3 up to 4/5 of softcore clips...

So well deserved and couldn't be happier to see this! For much of the time the last few weeks, my istripper has become a Paola-Hard-machine, she has something 100% enticing for me and glad to see it recognized in that. Looking forward to many more shows, Paola!

If you want to see girls masturbating you have tons of options. If you want to see most of the XXX girls on this app masturbating, you can find them on many other sites. This kind of soft-core content is unique and is what made the brand what it is. Is that what Istripper is doing now? Catering to people like you who don't even like the product?

👍

Without XXX cards i would probably stop buying their product because not interested on dancing shows.
There are multiple sites for non XXX shows for people interested in that kind of soft-core.

Are you kidding me? If you want to see girls masturbating you have tons of options. If you want to see most of the XXX girls on this app masturbating, you can find them on many other sites.

I'm not against them releasing 1 or 2 XXX cards a week, but for them to release more XXX than stripping shows or even a 50/50 split is kind of ridiculous to me. There are some models who only have XXX shows now. I really like Sasha Meow and was excited to see that she shaved her bush. But every single one of her new cards are XXX? WTF is that?

#05 and climbing. Old timers are slacking on the SEC's it seems :D

So true ...😆

Most Deserving, She is Great in VR.😜😍

Well deserved I'm totally convinced about that ! - Most of all I guess Paola is basically that kind of Model that really loves to share her Erotics with good Peoples ( Men and Women) and Fans - Peoples and Fans who love her Erotics in a Heartful good and kind way and it is an Art as well. When an Erotic Model does a Show etc. she should think only at all good Peoples with Love in their Heart in the Ordiance and not "at the other" Peoples. Love, Life, Freedom, Art and Fantasy and Understanding must win in the End and that's all ! 💙👍👍💖👍

Congratulations Paola !!! and eagerly awaiting your next show.😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@arise
Salut, peut-être , juste pas de chance dans le tirage des cartes qui te sont proposées😉
Ce n'est pas la première fois que tu t'étonnes à ce sujet 😊Je comprend bien ton exemple des personnes de + de 50 ans.
Les réponses que tu as reçues sont valables , bien sûr.
Je ne suis ni Celine, ni Manue, mais si tu comprends, comme moi, que les cartes les plus récentes sont toutes les cartes sauf la collection classique, alors la solution est trouvée 😀😀😀
@arise
Hi, maybe, just bad luck in the draw of the cards that are offered to you😉
This is not the first time that you are surprised about this 😊I understand your example of people over 50 years old.
The answers you received are valid, of course.
I'm neither Celine nor Manue, but if you understand, like me, that the most recent cards are all cards except the classic collection, then the solution is found 😀😀😀

Not Sonya, Freya or Tatiana ?

@wesley077 - their time will come.

If you look at the following link you will see, in the first post from @celine, the criteria on which the winner is selected.

https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/46541/1?post=693470

Number of sales is a primary factor and hence Paola with more shows in her catalogue released or available last month and selling strongly will probably be ahead of the others.

@arise77
"among" veut dire "parmi" et pas "seulement" (mais ça tu le sais déjà). Donc quand @celine écrit "parmi les plus récentes" cela ne signifie pas "seulement parmi les plus récentes". La nuance est bien là, on peut recevoir des cartes récentes (sorties il y a 30 jours ou plus), mais pas que.
Bonne journée quand même 😎

@stefnev1
Justement, "parmi" est suivi d'un groupe défini, indiquant une limite. Par exemple, si je dis "parmi les personnes de plus de 50 ans" cela n'inclut que les personnes de 50 ans et +, mais cela exclut aussi les personnes de moins de 50 ans, logiquement. Donc ce qui ne fait pas partie du groupe énoncé après "parmi" est exclu.
Je pense que ce que tu voulais dire était : "cartes récentes incluses parmi toutes les collections"
Bonne journée également 😉

@Members
You have to read the Entire rule, not just half of it.

The cards are selected among the most recent ones not in your collection and released more than 30 days ago.
Most recent not in your Collection and more than 30 days old

Then why say "among the most recent ones"?
For every Member, Most Recent NOT in your collection will be different.

A member who has every Card from 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021, and none from 2017
Most recent will be cards starting from 2017

For a member who doesn't have cards from 2020
Most recent will be cards starting from 2020

So it depends on a members collection and which cards will be most recent to them.

@Wyldanimal
Thanks for your reply, for me the part "more than 30 days ago" is very clear. My question was about the meaning of "most recent".

So you're saying that if cards from 2020 onwards are available for me to buy, they should be drawn. At the time of my screenshot I had over 300 cards available in the store from 2019 and 2020 even excluding the previous 30 days ones. Why aren't any of these selected then?

💋💋💋🔥🔥❤️❤️

Thanks for your reply, I also assume cards are from the entire collection.

Congrats Paola, very well deserved 😎😍👍

quelle déception !

So far, Paola's outfits are on point. I think both Paola and the staff have a good sense of eye-catching outfits.

@arise77
For me, the cards are selected from 30 days ago and earlier in the entire series you haven't, not only "the most recent". This rule applies (sometimes 45 days ago and earlier) for long time in my knowledge of the games.

I haven't played since last year so I don't know if anything has changed since. I probably tried about 30 spins altogether and never landed on the -70% nor the "free" section of the wheel.

Also in the cards that were drawn, none of them were actually recent; so I still don't understand Celine's post when she says cards are selected "among the most recent cards".
For example, the 4 cards on the screenshot are from 2016 (2), 2013 & 2014.

@Celine @Manue Could you please clarify from which point/date/year cards are considered "the most recent"? And therefore which ones are not recent? Thanks.

❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Not Sonya, Freya or Tatiana ?

Well deserved for the beautiful Paola Hard 💋💋

Definitely worth it and I can't wait for her incoming shows with themed-outfits :0

Paola Hard is a 20-year-old spanish beauty, she started her career in adult modeling in 2020 and hasn't stopped touring since.

One of the things that most marked the team is her ability to adapt to all situations and all requests ...

Pornstar for other productions, she is at iStripper a goddess of seduction and sensuality ... She poses wonderfully and her youth probalby contributes to her freshness and enthusiasm.

She can just as easily embody an exuberant school girl as a femme fatale, a dominant SM, a fierce bride or a daring pastry chef ... and you are not at the end of your surprises with the 5 shows not released yet...:)

If we had to blame her for something, it would be her impatience :) She can't keep still and is always eager to put on a show :)

We are extremely happy to name Paola Hard our iStripper of the Month of August 2021.

Here is an overview of her shows, just for our eyes' pleasure :



And don't forget her absolutely STUNNING VR180 performances:

Congratulations, Paola !! Looking forward to seeing you again 😍

Right @duras, thanks a bunch!

Here you are - it's Morgane from years ago - she made 9 shows in 2008/9
For while I thought looked like Chiara - she also made six shows back in 2008
Both just 19/20 years old back then - Chiara still active it seems, Morgane retired in 2012.
---
Well done @duras 👍 - my thought about Chiara held me up - they could almost be sisters 😄

Yes, it's Morgane, one of the best models ever.

Anyone know who is this? Saw her in another post on this forum but have no idea if she is on iStripper.

Update added FG117A

@WA @EricTotem et al
@TheEmu following your comments about animations above, & in
a quest to restore a better frame rate for the model, we made
experiments further with FG117 calling it FG117A

• eliminated animations of the clipsprite and camera,
• made common the resolutions of camera, quad & clipsprite, .. then
• reverted the Sandbox735004Mod01 shader to its 'original' GLSLSandbox e#73500.4 speed via

#define time u_Elapsed*(-1.0)

This looks to have corrected the stilted movements of the model, seen in the first shader mod version.

I did also try a few spins and made a comment on another thread, but at only 1 credit per spin it will take a very, very long time to fill the bar, unless you do also buy some of the selections. I'm waiting for the scratch card game next week to start my progress.

I don’t know how the chances are this time, but from 10 draws I never really got any seriously better discount than 20 percent (most of them were 10%), and all of them mostly ugly cards I didn’t like (maybe would have taken them with MUCH better discounts, or maybe I should have bought some of them to get better discounts). Kind of honestly de-motivates me. Last times (someone might remember that I praised this promotion some time ago) were definitely better :( I mean, even the Slot Machine recently at least showed me 25% every 3rd try or so, or I even got my credits back. Guess I’ll stick to buying new numbers I’m interested in or waiting for the rare cashback offers, obviously the only true interesting promotions meanwhile.

Maya Grand in July 2015 was apparently the Iron Lady - looking lovely in her strapless dress.

I'm at 4636. Getting there...

@cxsn , @HansSachs , me and others just want to know the reason why no previews for SECs on the app - that's all. Not interested at all in the chat about testing - should start a new thread for that if there is more to say.

Dans mon premier post, j'ai juste relater que sur la fin 2018, les SECs arrivaient sur le carroussel et que l'on pouvait uniquement y télécharger les démos. Et que dans la foulée (quelques jours peut-être) il y avait à faire une mise à jour du logiciel recommandée par iStripper. Et qu'à la suite de cette mise à niveau de l'application PLUS DE PREVIEW DE SEC!!! Le spectacle était terminé.

Entre nous:
On se fiche totalement des phases de développement du logiciel, ils ont juste adapté leur code pour que ce dernier bloque les SECs au niveau du carroussel et des previews, pointbarre. Et la génèse de tout ceci est purement commerciale.

P.S.
Perso, je repecte le business privé d'iStripper avec ses règles de fonctionnement, mais ici bloquer des previews, je trouve cela "PAS BIEN DU TOUT".😆

In my first post, I just related that on the end of 2018, the SECs were arriving on the carousel and that you could only download the demos there. And that in the wake (a few days maybe) there was to be a software update recommended by iStripper. And that following this upgrade of the application NO MORE SEC PREVIEW!!! The show was over.

Just between us:
Who cares about the development phases of the software, they just adapted their code to make it block SECs at the carousel and preview level, full stop. And the genesis of all this is purely commercial.

P.S.
Personally, I respect iStripper's private business with its rules of operation, but here blocking previews, I find it "NOT GOOD AT ALL".😆

"Hello, I have over 4979 cards what to do to receive Special Event cards, all the games like the wheel of Bargain I can't enter."

@1BlackKnight

Maybe ask here for help if the game is not working.

https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/48221/1?post=720500

I have 4973 cards but my name isn't there. Is the ranking for premium members only?

No, Premium does not come into play.

What does count towards the total are currently available cards - so in your total you must have some cards no longer available because I can see in your account that there are still 24 current cards that are not in your collection.

@stefnev1

As far as I am concerned "the topic" is whatever the users are discussing irrespective of what the original title of the thread may be. It should not be up to any individual to decide to shut down a thread becaise they think it has wandered.

We're way off the original topic

I've written that two posts above.
Please, come back on topic, or I will close it.
Thank you.

@TheEmu

It is less clear that there should always be a separate test phase - testing should be part of all the phases - though it is clear that it should be done and often there will be two or more phases dedicated to testing.

I also have spent about 40 years struggling to get the importance of testing properly acknowledged - mostly to get that importance recognised as part of the requirements phases rather than as an "add-on" extra phase at the end. Ironically, considering Sexy3DBoy's NASA comment, this was mostly in respect to ESA and NASA projects and they were both quite poor at it compared with what I had been used to previously.

We're way off the original topic, but I can't help chiming in. This has been a hot issue for me for about the same length of time. I'd phrase it a bit differently. Instead of testing, I prefer to talk about Quality Assurance. Testing is a form of Quality Control and Quality Control is part of Quality Assurance. The Six Sigma community believes that with enough quality assurance at the front end you can eliminate testing at the back. Although I don't buy that completely they have a point.

I have been convinced for a long time that testing is an inefficiently use of quality resources. I think peer reviews of requirements and designs are much more effective for finding significant problems. These days I do mostly enterprise level requirements work. From personal experience, the quality of my work products is directly proportional to the amount of peer reviews I can get from my collegues. I also know that the most significant problems I've detected in other people's work has been from review of their designs.

Here is a favorite quote of mine from Componsit/Structure Design by Glenford Myers, 1978, page 2:

"Programmers spend the majority of their time correcting their mistakes.

"Moreover they never finish. Examinations of typical programming projects will show that, over the dduration of the project, programmers spend over 50% of their working hours looking for and correcting their mistakes. The usual "solution" to this is remarkable. We try to solve the problem by rushing through the design process so that enough time is left at the end of the project to uncover the errors the were made because we rushed through the design process."

40+ years later and we still work this way.

This Hall of Fame there were 4970 cards in the Store
August has 31 days, so the next Hall of Fame should be 5002 cards
31 regular cards and one SEC, if the one SEC per month is followed.

So the Team has the entire month of August to finalize any plans they have for the 5000 Achievement badge.

Many Members have already reached 5000 cards in their collection, but this includes cards no longer for sale that are not in the store.
So as far as the Hall of Fame goes, it is as of yet, not an Official 5000 cards from the store.

Oui, vous voyez cette info sur la page de rechargement, comme le signale @wrightsayswow.
Je viens également de le remarquer car cette info n'apparait que si vous utiliser la méthode de recharge sur la page web.
Malheureusement l'info n'apparait pas si vous utiliser l'application !!😲

Yes, you see this info on the reload page, as @wrightsayswow reports.
I also just noticed it because this info only appears if you use the reload method on the web page.
Unfortunately the info does not appear if you use the application !! 😲
