I'd support 1200 baud modem speeds for users that keep posting the same pics over and over and over and over.....or those that upload the really bad undress AI app pictures.

.

Sadly currently the views does not cover nearly enough, else we would never do this as we did not do it for almost 2 decades, it is not an easy move for us also, and as I explained before , we are not some big deep pockets organization, so sadly we need those funds to cover the servers and the developers who make this site into what it is, no one plans to buy yachts here, all we do is so you guys can keep using the site as it is.

This is what premium does :) Once you get ANY premium plan you will have no delays and you will see no ads. but maybe indeed its a good spot to also show an ad.

compromise: reduce all your plans to 50%,

from 0,00 to 100,00 (premium) per year is far too much

most of us are non or semi-professionnels and don't earn really money with pimpandhost pictures

at the moment most uf us must shuttered P&H - because this (current) too high prices.

maybe after a year testing (from both sides) you can make higher prices ..

i'm pretty sure you will have more, happy and loyalty premium members with this compromise.

and maybe find a way to earn money from viewers/leechers like all other filehosts

thanks for understanding

We are not looking to hurt anyone, all we want is to be able to keep the site fast and running, those prices came after much thinking and testing, and users mean the world to us, you look at it like 100/year but essentially its 27 cents a day :) with 20% off for yearly package. or 8$/month, we did make the prices to be really affordable for everyone, and while we could be 100% free that was always the case, you for example is a user of P&H since 2017, so you must know how dedicated we are to our community and we do our best to always keep everyone happy.

seems not optimal for me and some other users

but thanks for your explanation

I Clearly understand my friend, and I wish we had other solutions, it took us 20 years to get to this point, we held the fort for as long as we could, trust me once we come up with smarter ways we will do all in our power to make sure we do the best and if we can lower anything it will be lowered, as I said, money was never the issue here, it was all done from pure heart and the love of what we created, profits were never a priority at P&H, all money we ever made was spent back on the site and keeping it fast and flawless, even at losing time all was covered from our own pockets, so you can trust me on this that our community happiness is our #1 priority and always has been. but this is our baby, we love it as you guys are, and difficult times demand certain adjustments and this is one of them, and I think after 20 years together, this is the time we as community need to support each other and do what is best even when times are bit tougher.

Just noticed that clicking on my own pics even takes 20 seconds loading time for them to appear, every single pic. My own page. Scrolling through my page has become VERY annoying! But this has become policy now, dus to these changes? If so, I don't think I will be hanging arouynd anymore. I understand things cant stay the same, serverspace, costs and all, but even to be limited on my own page, I think for me that would a bridge too far.
Again, if so...I most likely will cancel, too bad for all the effort and time I've put in to make it fun for others to visit, and it was somewhat wholesome even for me to be spending time on the page, working on it...on the other hand, me leaving would make more room for you guys on the server :p....
It was a fun ride while it lasted,....

Did the behavior change? was it not like this before? we did not do nothing only added 1 more button to buy premiums? also if you hit "see" ad, the image will instantly open and you will see no more ads for 1 hour?

I cannot even log in to my account this morning. I get this:
