Title: all-new HerBiceps (aka HB+)
Post by: FemFlexUSA on August 27, 2019, 06:04:04 pm
Those heather steel clips were classic.  Really hoping they get re-released!!

They were, I agree! I think we will bring back Heather Steel at some point. The process of looking at, evaluating, and organizing the former content is rather daunting and it's not something we can really delegate to the staff.  They can do the editing on anything that makes the cut, but the selections have to be done by Mike or me.  Generally, if an old site model was popular and/or very good (some great models weren't that popular), we'll have her on the new site.

Thanks for checking out the new platform. Let me know if you have any other questions: webmaster@herbiceps.com.

The Jodi stuff is phenomenal and a long time coming, a must get!

Is there any chance of getting Emi Beast back for a shoot some day? She was one of my faves

Agreed on Jodi. She's already a legendary talent and has so much more left in the tank.

Regarding Emi, she's training and looking fantastic, so I hope we'll eventually get new stuff material from her someday.

The old site doesn't exist anymore. We had to make significant changes in order to keep the train running.  We understand not everyone may realize or agree, but the market is vastly different than it was 15 years ago.  Either adapt or get run over. 

Armwrestling, measurements, L&C, etc....all are the types of things the production crew films when it's possible to do so. They cannot and will not be done by every featured model on the site.  There are some models we'd like to get who only want to flex, nothing else.  And that's fine - we never wanted every shoot to be identical.  If certain shoots don't appeal to you, we hope you will find others that do. Thank you for this feedback.

I am saying, that by some strange reason HB + models are only skinny bikini and figure girls.
And on VOD`s are the girls who have muscles, as physique and BB. No idea why.
I don`t `care about this "new" Herbiceps, for me you guys destroyed one of the best products on internet of all time.
I am care only about your VOD`s, which, unfortunately, are expensive and updates are not very often (as you promised before).

We have updated the site every day for the past 6 months.  I don't know that we can do much better than that, mate. ;)

Different customers want different products and we try to serve each in a way that is also good for the health of the business. When you look at the top 20 female muscle sites in the world, not a single one of them is membership-only. When you say "destroyed", can you describe what you mean?

You should make discounts on bulk VOD purchases. There is a 20% discount for subscribers but bulk purchases are very expensive. For example, an additional 30% discount can be made for purchases of 5 or more because there are over 700 VODs

Last I checked you still needed HB+ membership to view videos at a decent quality - low-res ones were ok to view by anyone.

As for all the good stuff going into VOD - so true. Which is why I have taken my $$ elsewhere.

Interesting note, but I'll definitely look into this.  I was under the impression that we're putting out at least 3-4 VODs almost every week.  In fact, one common complaint is that we release too MANY VODs relative to the amount of regular member and free videos.  I've heard requests for specific types of VODs, but I think your message is the first time I've seen anyone say they wanted more VODs, period.  Thank you for this!

Zakaka is correct - all of the VODs on HB+ can be downloaded, as can all of the HB-labeled content on HBC.  Please email us if you have trouble downloading a purchase.

We hope people will like our products and will enjoy what they buy, but can't debate value with anyone. No matter how we may feel about the fairness of our pricing, ultimately, all customers make those decisions for themselves.  There's content for a wide variety of visitors, regardless of how much they would like to spend, even if they don't want to buy anything at all.  There are people who have stated that we're crazy to be producing Free content, but we strongly believe in trying to avail some of our content to every real fan out there.

720p is still HD-quality video, even if 4K and 1080 are everywhere now.  There's a free, 30-second preview of every video on the site.  Just a few years ago, 30-second clips were one of the common standards in the member section. Come on back and check them out - no cost or obligation, just a little bit of your time.

crazy how things have changed. I remember when HB launched and at dial up speeds it took forever to DL a 15 second preview clip of Cindy Phillips with potato quality. I am enjoying the consistency with which you are getting 3-4 types of videos with each woman ie: intro clip, comparison/emasculation, strength, gym, etc. Lots of women I would have wished for a decade ago like Cindy Phillips or Theresa Ivancik (although she's more recent) have done stuff which is great, in addition to the newer girls like Jodi who hadnt' done a flex video EVER until this point (bless you).

We're always looking for ways to expand/improve the ways people access and consume the content.  "Used to" isn't really applicable here, especially given how short a time direct download was not working. As the market moves more and more to mobile, users are demanding access to already-purchased content across multiple platforms. And, of course, they still want to download what they buy, so the current member folio solution addresses both needs.  When a user logs in on their member account - which can be paid or Free - all their video purchases and favorited content are there.

As someone who buys a lot of the VODs I agree with what Mike intimated; that there should be way more of an effort to put more VOD tier content onto the membership area. I've never really understood the appeal of wanting to spend extra money on the regular flexing/interview VODs which are essentially just bumper versions of what you can get elsewhere. I do however love the strength VODs whether that's the emasculation (when it isn't diving into pure fantasy) and the max out gym stuff; you've produced dozens (nearing hundreds) of these types of videos, which of course I am very pleased about, but I do wish we'd see more of this type of stuff in the member section. Recently you've posted virtually the entire Yari Ramos emasculation VOD as clips (a bit unfair to the people who bought the VOD which released less than a month ago but whatever) and I wish you would do this more often. The VODs are split up into sections as it is (interview, measuring, pose-off, pushups, armwrestling, mercy, resistance challenge, etc) and could be easily released in the cheaper clip format.

Stuff like armwrestling and pushups show up once every blue moon on the membership section despite appearing in about 1/3 VODs. VODs should be the very best content, as it stands it just feels a bit like you arbitrarily lock 50% of the content on the site behind an additional paywall; as while many of the strength VODs (where the quality can be objectively judged to a degree by how well the model performs in stuff like pushups) do feature the best strength performances on the site, just as many are pretty much no different from the stuff you see on the member site and I'm left wondering why the extra charge?

First, I just want to say you are one of the most amazing customers ever. In addition to your business, you always provide pertinent feedback about the products you're buying and we do read everything. We really appreciate it! (and we should say so more often)

I hear what you are saying with respect to wanting more premium content in the member section, but at the risk of offending your sensibilities, we really cannot operate at all like we did 15, 10, or even 5 years ago. When we acquire new content, that cost is sunk, so then we have to look at the whole and figure out how we can make our money back and then hopefully turn a profit. As we've stated a few times, the primary complaint of the members prior to the changeover was the frequency of updates. There were some complaints about various aspects of the content presentation and occasionally a word or two about total volume (rare), so we went all-in on making sure frequency would not be a problem moving forward. We've got a team of content creators and backend managers working full-time to keep that issue off the table.

I was unaware that a newish VOD had been converted to and released as clips. I appreciate you bringing that to my attention, so I will investigate this week and figure out what's going on.

We always have a goal of wanting customers to feel good about their purchases. It's fine to say, "Hey, you bought this...maybe you would be interested in this, too", but we want the value to be right for you. I think the Premium membership makes sense for customers who only want to spend $100/year, because they enjoy the basic content the site provides, and then I think it also makes sense for the ultimate VOD customer like yourself, because that $100 annual investment locks in the VOD discount for you the entire year.

I applaud the frequency with which you get out content, it is without doubt unprecedented in this industry and a hell of a step up from what you were doing only a year or so back. However, if I am as you say an "ultimate VOD customer" then I assume most VOD customers won't even purchase 2% of your catalogue, even with the silly money I've sunk in I've only purchased a fraction of it. Seems silly to produce so much content and yet because of the vast volume combined with price even the most frivolous buyer will likely not even see a third of what's produced; is there no viability for even a small proportion of the less popular types of VOD to be released on the members section?

And thank you for the credits, although I do feel  for involuntarily depriving the non-VOD crowd of some of the strongest (imo) member clips and essentially enforcing the disproportion I'm talking about. Are we going to see some equally VOD-worthy content in it's place?

It is possible that some of the least popular titles may eventually be repackaged with some of that content being added to the members section.  As for "like" VOD content being added to the member section, that's always a possibility, too, but our basic way of operating is pretty holistic - we see certain types of offerings as being more suited for VOD than for the member section and vice-versa. Occasionally we'll take a look at a particular shoot and say "that's mostly member content", even though it could be VOD-worthy. We don't have any expectation that anyone would buy every single VOD we release, but generally speaking, the VOD product has been well-received by our customer base, which is why you're seeing a lot of production on that side.

When we look at the volume and quality of content that goes to the member section each week, we've been very pleased with what's going up. We always ask one question - "is this worth $15/month?" And since the re-launch, we've felt confident about that and as we look toward the future, the biggest request the members want fulfilled is to have more older content added on a fairly consistent basis. Getting pre-2015 content prepped for release presents a lot of challenges that are very time-consuming, so it is without a doubt one of our biggest undertakings for this year.

When I look at that Yari shoot, man, there's a lot of great material and I think the member content is far and away superior to what the Free users are getting. If the Premium member, non-VOD content of even 1/4 of the shoots we publish is that good, I think it's a major win for the members. I know we're all going to make our valuations differently, but as things stand today, when taking all factors into consideration, I think the member section is currently the best it has ever been in the history of HerBiceps.

We think everything is great. ;)  We're such a large-volume business that the way we view specific content inclusion will always be different than anyone who patronizes the site.  Everyone's feedback matters to us, but everyone's valuations are different.

Think about the earlier point you made - "Hey guys, you just released a new VOD as member clips....a bit unfair to the people who bought the VOD which released less than a month ago". You had paid a premium price for a VOD and then a month later, you realized you could have gotten the same content as a part of your Plus membership and rightfully, you didn't like that. And that's the sort of consideration that goes into the calculus when we're making these decisions. We never want anyone feeling they've been ripped off in that way. Even though it wasn't intentional on our part, that doesn't matter to most people - they know what they felt and aren't interested in excuses. 

So, we try to provide more excellent content and hopefully they'll feel good about their next renewal.

Bring Kaitlyn Vera To HerBiceps...
Title: Re: all-new HerBiceps (aka HB+)
Post by: fp909 on February 12, 2020, 04:15:33 am
i feel like getting Vera is pretty slim to none unless there are plans to shoot her. She's very against onlyfans, probably not just because of the site and the reputation but also some of the muscle worship stuff. She's not the only person that's really against doing videos: Michaela Aycock, Chloe Sannito had issues for a while, Shannon Courtney had issues after a while. I dig that she posts her pec bounces every once in a while but I feel like that might be it for her.

....unless FemFlexUSA has news for us....

No news at all.  We're always interested in featured models the fans would like to see, but if what you're saying is accurate, she may not be a great candidate.  But, people do change their minds over time.  There are models who were very excited to shoot for us, then changed their minds a few years later and there are also other models who never wanted to be on HerBiceps (or similar) who are now among the most popular on the site. We just go with the flow - if you know of a terrific model who wants to be a part of what we're doing here, then by all means, send her our way and we'll put her in touch with the production company.

The only time I might ever get down about a great physique talent not wanting to shoot at all is when she's really amazing and there's no documentation of it apart from a few contest pics. She has every right not to do commercial shoots, of course, but if she's special, I want history to know it. But, because of social media nowadays, there are opportunities for them to be memorialized in the ways that they themselves choose.

Is some F/F strength stuff something you'd ever consider doing more of? You've done a little but it's usually between one tiny girl and one much bigger girl and is essentially the emasculation stuff but replacing the guy with a tiny girl. A lot of the time you've gotten lucky (like with the armwrestling between Novis and Chelsea Keyasko) and the smaller or bigger girl are either stronger or weaker respectively than expected meaning there have still been some good contests but it'd be cool to see more contests of strength between equally sized girls. Rachelle Carter for instance is always armwrestling against girls twice her size with no real chance of victory; I understand it can be difficult to get the girls together for shooting but you have had so many great, strong models who have done multiple VODs and are up for male armwrestling that seeing some of them test their strength against each other would be amazing. I kind of get the impression that F/F armwrestling and strength stuff isn't that popular but what is your view on this?

We don't always nail the sweet spot on pricing - some will be lower than the field might expect, while others may be a little higher than the field expected, but in general, the bulk of our library is priced below market for comparable products and that's not even accounting for the built-in discounts that the larger credit packages get.

We would definitely love to be able to acquire that sort of content, but in reality, there simply are not that many big women out there. So, the odds of having 2 of them available in the same place at the same time are pretty small. And then if you do manage to have 2 of them, the chances are even smaller that both will be interested in armwrestling. With the number of publicized injuries scaring so many people nowadays, several just draw a hard line - "I don't armwrestle".  Other strength contests present less risk and thus less fear, though.

Logistics are an ongoing issue for the production team. All the best intentions in the world won't get 2 quality, equal-sized models - who are both gamers for what you are describing - into the studio at the same time. It all comes down to luck, timing, and how everyone is feeling on a particular day. I think they consistently send us pretty amazing content and we're thankful to all the women who choose to participate, regardless of what their individual parameters are.

That's totally understandable I guess, it's just such a shame that the glory days of 2010-2015 where nearly every other day the site was posting legit armwrestling are so far behind us. Some of the emasculation matches are okay but most are just that; emasculation, and it's clear a lot of them are far from legit. The F/F matches are my favourites because in nearly all cases both sides have no ulterior motive and are therefore trying for the win, I don't think there'd be much fun in seeing the guys just crush the models in legit matches (although there are good examples of F/M like in the Angelica Enberg VOD where she wins some and loses some but it all seems legit) so I think F/F is the best chance at good legit matches. I remember on the old site there was a great matchup between Monstress and Jackie Horan, and the latter was super dominant even against big girls in all her other matches so when she was given no ground and was eventually forced down it confirmed Monstress' power to me more so than any of the feats she has done since.

Also, the previous post about VODs reminded me to bring up that there are a couple of them (even among only the ones I've bought) where footage is literally repeated to make up the runtime. Most recently the Rachel White emasculation VOD repeats the game of mercy twice, and also I'm pretty sure I can recall an older VOD with Syleena Adams, Kendra Newton and Rachelle Carter repeats sizeable chunks (at least 2 minutes) of flexing between the good armwrestling stuff. There's probably some others I've forgotten plus I often skip around the VODs so have likely missed even more cases like this; it's not an endemic problem and obviously I would hope these are just oversights but it's a little irritating to find repeat footage given the price paid for these VODs.

We understand not wanting to pay for identical content twice. There are a few reasons why the same footage might appear in different VODs - ordinarily, a segment might fit with more than one title or it could just be an oversight.

Whenever you find that you've bought the same stuff twice, let us know and we'll arrange the appropriate refund right away.

It isn't that I've bought the same stuff twice in different VODs, just that some of the stuff (like the two VODs I mentioned) features shows up twice in the same VOD. And in some cases (like those I mentioned) it leads to minutes worth of duplicated footage, so you wouldn't be paying $8 for 10 minutes like advertised but instead $8 for 8 minutes. The Triple Threat VOD has segments of Sean going through various poses with Syleena and Kendra scattered throughout, I only noticed due to repeat audio conversation but it appears about 2:30 of flexing is repeated in full so over 1/5 of the VOD is repeat footage.

My apologies for misreading your earlier post. You said exactly that - I just interpreted it the other way!

One of the things people used to ask me for (not sure about Mike) was to have slower flexing in the videos.  A lot of muscle models flex at hyperspeed. It's crazy sometimes. lol So, from the consumer side, I would get requests to have certain sequences done in slow-mo, and people would sometimes want to see the original, followed by a slower version.  I haven't watched the full videos you have referenced, but it sounds like a very reasonable criticism to me. I'll apply a refund to those you've already bought and after I get a chance to review the products, I will raise your concern the next time we're discussing what sort of edits we'd like to see.  We believe we have some formulas that are working very well, but we are always looking to improve value.  Thank you for this quality feedback.

Final thing I want to point out (I promise haha) is that most of the Lindsey Cope VODs have been released as membership clips in a similar case to that of Yari Ramos. Not really much of an issue as those VODs were released so long ago, but probably a good thing to maybe remove those VODs so people don't end up unknowingly paying for content which is readily available for much cheaper?

Some models prefer to be known by stage names. As to advertising for IG, there are plenty of other sites for that - we're in a different business.

the VOD price is reasonable if you're selective but if youre like me and there's a lot it can be prohibitive. however it's on par with other VOD sites so i go through the same decision making process when there are multiple clips. which ones take priority and what can wait.

my biggest concern is the wipe out of older material. There are some great new girls, but aside from the quality of video (because HD wasn't really around) what about girls like Steph Park, Jen Broomfield etc etc who were staples of the site before and had tons of content that's just now unavailable?

I find myself less compelled to purchase recently. They've always made it clear that the webcams are the golden goose and I suspect they cover the majority of the costs so it is a shame that they produce so much ostensibly good content yet price them at such premium prices. Without the membership discount the prices are outrageous with most VODs ending up being around $10; can you really justify charging $20 for a video of Lauren Quinn talking to camera about her muscle transformation? You can find  numerous interviews and podcasts with her for free on YouTube for crying out loud!

I always find it in particular bad taste when they manage to get three or four VODs (emasculation, fantasy armwrestling, talking to camera, gymwork, muscle worship) out of what is clearly the same shoot totaling to about $35 to watch all that content for one girl. And in a lot of the VODs the actual meat of the content only occupies a small fraction of the video with the rest being occupied with repetitive flexing or superfluous fluff. There's one VOD which has a great bit of Larissa Penaloza doing a massive amount of barbell curls for about 3 minutes, then the remainder of the 10+ minute video is three separate guys doing the exact same thing trying to beat her rep total. I know the emasculation element is very popular but does anyone seriously want to pay to watch 7 minutes of men doing bicep curls?

Honestly, I don't think I've ever seen any positive feedback on the VOD pricing structure and I get the impression it's only a very small clique that have bought even a remotely high number of them. The appetite for female muscle is there (as evidenced here and the very high view counts extracts from the VODs get on YouTube) but pricing at $10 per video is going to guarantee only a very select number of people purchase.

We listen to all customer and visitor feedback and sales are a part of that. If there is sufficient demand for concept X, then we will try to feature it. If the demand for X drops off, then we will be less inclined to feature it.

We've always been a value-based company, and we devote significant hours and resources to trying to make sure every visitor gets value out of our product, regardless of their budget. We have VODs priced from 20 credits up to 195 credits. The median price is 75 credits. I haven't calculated the average, but's probably close to that. Just like with webcam, customers set their own VOD budgets and purchase accordingly. We also operate a Free site that people seem to be enjoying.

Sorry for the ranty nature of the last post... I guess I'm just a bit frustrated you make so much good content I want to check out but the cost to check all that out, even limited to just one category like strength stuff, is exorbitant. Buying just the stuff with strength tests and gymwork probably totals over $1000 and with the insanely productive release schedule of VODs this continues to grow week on week. I'm going to have to concur with a post further up and be a lot more selective going forward.

It just makes me sad to think of all of the membership content on the old site; a fair subscription for new content and an archive of literally hundreds and hundreds of legit strength clips in armwrestling, workouts, metal planks, grip strength, etc. Checking out the archive of this new site after a few more years I'd probably be looking at forking out $5000 on the fantasy armwrestling alone. The new membership section comes up with some great clips every now and then (and to be fair the very few f/f armwrestling clips constitute most of the legit armwrestling on the site) but 80% of the real good stuff is in VOD.

The free content, especially all the galleries, is obviously a great service so good job with that.

Why do you feel like younhahe to pay all that money for content? I’m
I’m certainly not spending that kind of money onVOD alone especially with the majority of women feature not being really my type, which is my preference. Be a good consumer and figure out what it is you really want; since we don’t “need” any of this truly it is enjoyment spending. And if spending more makes you uncomfortable you aren’t enjoying it anymore.

Be a good consumer and figure out what it is you really want; since we don’t “need” any of this truly it is enjoyment spending. And if spending more makes you uncomfortable you aren’t enjoying it anymore.
You're totally right, I'm gonna try to take a step back and get some perspective as it's becoming unhealthy at this point. I've been going through some stuff recently and I've acted foolishly so I'd like to apologise for quite a few of the preceding posts.

Trust me I feel you. Now more than ever. I’ve spent a lot on cam in the past but there are times I have to stop myself. Especially when I think to myself: you know I just saw her yesterday, what would be really that different that I need to see right now?

Is there any chance that you guys might set up a wishlist where we could queue videos that we want to buy in the future?

Wishlist functionality has existed for a long time. You can add videos to it from your Cart, which is also where you can access My Wishlist.

I don't think you can add directly to the Wishlist from the video pages, in which case that's the most obvious limitation.

Thanks, guys, for the prompt. The functionality was created at the start, but we forgot to include the Wishlist tab and then we are not actively pushing shoppers and surfers to "check your wishlist". You are correct that the tab has been installed on the cart page, but exists nowhere else, so we are working on best-use inclusions right now. For example, it should be a selection option on the "VOD store" drop-down. And you're right about having it as an option on every VOD listing.

After years of waiting, they created an extremely bad, dysfunctional, stupid site.  The old Hb site was better than this.
They try to get people a lot of money by selling VODs for high prices, but I find most of them free on porn sites.  Lower VOD fees, high fees are incentives to pirate sites.

The data says less than 5% of our users "prefer the old site". Even if one argued that our interpretation of the numbers is flawed due to underreporting by people who have simply quit and moved on, that would still max out around 8-10%. I get that people are often nostalgic for the past, but time doesn't care. It just keeps moving and we adapt until we don't. The majority of current members were not members in 2004-2005 or even in 2010.

That's not a true statement. One only need to consider the amount of free content on our site. We paid to produce it so that we could give it away. That has zero influence over whether people choose to steal. Pirates don't care about production costs or what a customer paid for a video. Pirate consortiums have existed for decades, since long before most of us were born.

As a consumer, you are absolutely entitled to your feelings and we want people to feel good about transacting with us, but as a business, we have to make our decisions based on market realities. I don't mean to come off as *too* snarky or condescending, but if you decided to go into business, adjusting your practices to make thieves feel bad or less motivated to steal would not be a prudent accommodation.

That said, we do appreciate all feedback.

Title: BigMuscleBarbie....
Post by: tarzan7 on February 09, 2021, 03:00:22 pm
I never do negative reviews and not sure if this is the place, but here goes - BigMuscleBarbie from Herbicepscam. She's brand new to the site.

I really liked her pics, the way she spoke, her dominant look and attitude. Took her to 1 on 1. She did begin to go topless, get dominant, but with every other comment wanted a tip. Never got that demand in 1 on 1. Horny, I did it. The next day I sent her an email on HBC. No response. Fine... but I go on again. She's in Premium. I immediately request 1 on 1. She's obviously talking to the person who got her in Premium and said something like, "Eh, some guy wants me 1 on 1. I'll just ignore him," or something like it, and pissed, I got off.

Today saw she was one. Gave her one more chance. She's talking in Free with two, three guys about the quality of her video (it has been a problem with her a bit, like many on the site and I've seen) and I say hello and make a comment or two to help. I was on two, three minutes. Several guys were in Free. She says to me, "Stop just stayin' in Free or I'll block 'ya." I was always polite to her. Pissed I left and won't be back.

I've spent too much time with ladies who give a good show there to go back to her. Outlandish behavior.

I'm hoping Tre sees this post about HB+.  I do like the new site and I have been pretty happy with the mostly daily updates as a paying member.  Up until recently, I've not spent any money on VODs.  I ended up buying the 3200 credits package because there were a lot of VODs that caught my interest.  So far, I've purchased five VODs and they were all well worth the cost.  As I am previewing all the VODs to see which one I want to purchase next, I find myself having a hard time figuring out which VODs are more recently produced (not the posted date).  I think if the month, day, and year (mm/dd/yyyy) the VOD was produced could be a filter for searching VODs that would be very useful.  There would be older VODs that I would still purchase for my favorite muscle models, but for the most part I am searching for the most recently filmed VODs.  The same could go for the regular videos on the site, if the video is produced in 2018 and posted to the site in 2021, it isn't recent in my book.  I may be in the minority on this, but I don't care to watch older videos or VODs of a muscle model that quit bodybuilding.  As fans/supporters of female muscle, we all know models come and go, but when they are actively sculpting their physique that is when I want to see them.

Zakaka, I only bought the 3200 credits after getting a reply e-mail fro HB that I would get credit discounts applied to my order when I asked about how to get a coupon code.  I'm not rich, by any means.  I selectively join and cancel memberships so I'm not spending too much money each month.  I also won't use Cam because that gets expensive.  My 3200 credits won't expire, so I'm hoping I can make it last.

Just checking in after a long hiatus for my usual moan: the rate at which member video content is updated is nothing short of a joke. There must be maybe 10 clips added per week, half of which are usually archive stuff. Given the size of the old site they could be posting 20 archive clips per day and still have content for years to come.  I'm hoping this content deficit is down to the pandemic but that's even more excuse to cash-in on the archival stuff. We've had maybe 5 old armwrestling clips posted out of the literal hundreds that used to exist. How long exactly are they planning to roll this stuff out over? It'd be nice if some of the members lived to see the day! What's the hold up? Why are there any days when no clips are posted? Just fill those days with archival content!

And the fact they still refuse to put even 1% of the VOD-style variety content (any kind of strength stuff) in the membership section is just pathetic. God forbid they lose $100 worth of sales by giving an armwrestling match to subscribers. Although it doesn't really matter anyway given their matches are now painfully fake for the most part.

The site has been getting worse and worse recently. I have a stable income and don't spent my money on much else in life so have splashed a fuckton on VODs over the years for the strength stuff but even with my addiction I'm having a hard time finding any recently released VODs worth purchasing, most of it is just run of the mill flexing.

Any complaints are always met with the same pronouncements that their current model is a hit and they're making much more money than ever before. Here's an idea: how about you actually use some of that profit to subsidise membership/free content rather than lauding it over the paying customers as justification for not changing anything?

The galleries are still really good though and ironically the only free thing on the site.

I cannot believe that this pathetic excuse for website still exist! Honestly!
Their updates are only with old (2015-2017) videos of bikini models, which may
be stopped going to gym anymore, and no one remembers them.
Their super-expensive VOD`s are shoot in the worst way possible -Sean is terrible videographer, terrible!!
Shaking camera, worst possible angles...cannot compare his crap videos with the videos in FTV, Muscle Angels, Krivs, HDP or Awefilms, not a chance!
I am buying only "action" VOD`s - with wrestling, domination, AW and measurements,
but usually in 8 minute "action" video the "action'' is no more that 2 minutes..
the other 6 are boring posing with same crap angle.
And very often the LIE about the content of the video...in tag there is armwrestling or mixed wrestling, but when
you buy it...surprise!! there is nothing of this!!
and so many videos they make ONLY leg measurements, but not biceps ones...hello, do you know the name of your crap website???
It hurts when a see what this great Mike`s website have become.

Hi, and thanks, Kevin!

I'm not sure we'll be able to get it right with respect to "date produced" on a lot of the pre-2019 content. The past members will no doubt have better recognition than we, but when possible, we'll give our best estimates.  Your suggestion is a great one, though, and theoretically, we should be able to improve the cataloguing on the fly as new/better information becomes available. You can generally expect to see the freshest content being promoted more frequently.

Just checking in after a long hiatus for my usual moan: the rate at which member video content is updated is nothing short of a joke. There must be maybe 10 clips added per week, half of which are usually archive stuff.

The galleries are still really good though and ironically the only free thing on the site.

I always love reading your updates, because your criticism tends to be very constructive and always seems to come from a place of wanting to improve the site not only for your own benefit, but for others' as well. And by "others", I'm including us. I can't get too deep into why you haven't seen tranches and tranches of archived content or why fresher clip frequency might seem sparse, other than to say we do recognize a lynchpin there and we are working to resolve it. Although we can certainly be better, I would argue that we are living up to our promise and that there is a steady and reliable stream of content every week. As stated previously, however, we will not be restoring 100% of the classic material.

I do have to push back a little as there is strength content in the member section. I can't say whether any of it is free, but I do know there is some for the Premium members. As for comparing the volume of clips-vs-VOD on any specific content type, I can say that I recognize and understand your complaint, but I respect your intelligence enough not to create any sort of debate points on the subject of value. There's no exact formula - 2 member clips and 1 free clip per every VOD release, etc - and regardless of the calculus, some percentage of customers are unlikely to be satisfied. I can't convince you something is a good value if you have the exact opposite feeling.

As for earnings, I don't think we've ever talked about that(?), but I can say that there is an ongoing, uphill fight against piracy that often has me questioning whether anything is worthwhile. I'm not saying we're broke, but if we were truly killing it at the box office, I'd be asking different questions. I think what you've seen me say is that the member feedback we receive tells us they prefer the new platform to the old HB by a very large margin. There are some stalwarts with nostalgia for the old, and we will never be able to make them happy, but the crowd has spoken and the page has been turned.

Value disagreements aside, you have always spoken from the heart while also putting your money where your heart is. I know we gave you a little bonus sometime last year, but I've just added another few credits so that you can get a couple of VODs on us. Thanks, as always.

I appreciate your efforts, understand that there is no chance of the whole archive being restored and I agree that plenty of it isn't really worth restoring. But you have to recognise there is a huge spectrum between 100% restoration and where the site is currently. I think I've made it clear that I'm biased to the more strength oriented videos rather than the solid flexing vids so I can't help but be a little disheartened to see that from the hundreds of old armwrestling, grip strength and metal plank videos a total of maybe 10 to 15 of them have made the transition over a two year period. And even excluding strength stuff I can only really remember some Britt Miller and Brie Eubanks stuff being uploaded; and yet I can recall multiple VODs (especially armwrestling VODs) showcasing what was formerly member content on the old site.

I will hold my hands up and say that there is definitely some new strength stuff in the member section, there were some Chelsea Hutton and Kaitlyn Mumford videos from a couple of months ago where they did pushups, pullups, squats and bicep curls which was great. I cannot endorse this model enough and it is reminiscent of the sort of variety the old HerBiceps used to offer for a membership fee. But those clips are from December three months ago. And before that you have to go back to June with Natalia Degler's pushups to find another new clip that has them doing any serious strength stuff; I don't think clips where the girls do 10 pushups or lift and carry another small girl can really be classed as strength content given they barely exert themselves. Tonya Rae also did some impressive one-armed pushup stuff earlier this month and I think there's maybe one other girl doing some bicep curls a few months back. Even so you're looking at 4 or 5 models doing decent strength stuff over the last 9 months. If you did the stuff you did with Chelsea and Kaitlyn (which I can't stress enough is perfect content for me) more regularly then I would be totally satisfied. But to say that the member section has strength and variety content which is in any way even comparable to the VODs (which at one point pre-Covid were pumping out this sort of content multiple times per week) is a massive exaggeration. I could probably find the exact ratio but I think you get the idea. At the moment even the VODs have run dry on strength content though so I'm worried you are thinking of phasing out max tests and pushups altogether.

I could be completely wrong about you mentioning earnings in which case I apologise unreservedly. I just swear you've used the success of the current platform, and especially the cams, as a way to deflect criticism in the past. And by success I assumed you meant profit.

I'm glad you still enjoy reading the feedback, I usually end up reading back over it and thinking I sound far more coarse than I intended but I swear I'm not nearly as angry as I come across haha. I just feel that the variety content I've mentioned previously was what made HB stand out from the market, it was strength stuff without the overbearing fantasy/femdom trappings of other sites. It's a shame that real armwrestling has been almost completely phased out but I understand that safety must be a priority so there's nothing that can be done about that. You've managed to replace that with various gym challenges but my problem is and always will remain that 95% of these are locked away in the VODs when I feel the whole package would be so much better if you managed to get some strength stuff out on the member section every week, or even a couple of times per month.

Tre, I'm curious about this as I've been paying a lot of attention to OF recently. I'm wondering if that platform has had any effect on "staffing". Obviously if it's sensitive info, no worries, but one thing I've found pretty hilarious is the large number of women who may not even have considered being on cam in any capacity all of a sudden setting up shop and dropping XXX material.

I wish it was possible to convey just how little the new company and its operations have in common with the old. I also wish it was possible to create an understanding as to why the wish list cannot align with the supply. Just because "we" - speaking as a large cross-section of the fan community - might want something does not mean that the team which shoots content for us will be able to work with models who are willing or able to deliver what we (the fans) are looking for. And then if there is a small, finite supply of something, we have an obligation to try to make it profitable, if possible. I keep repeating that last part, but I cannot stress it enough. In terms of profitability, the business model that worked in 2006 could not survive even a year today. Even though - as a unique consumer - you have remained the same all these years, the market has not. 

We welcome criticism, but when I respond, it's to give a peek into the window of why you're seeing what you're seeing. The things that we get wrong or which are not to your liking AND which we can correct or improve, we will take into account and try to do better. There are other things which are not to your liking that would be either too costly or impossible to change. See above about supply - if we've requested something and there's no model to deliver it, there's nothing we can do about that. If your ideal model gets sick on the day of a scheduled shoot, that's out of our control. If an ideal model gets injured or has to change her travel dates and misses the shooting window, that's too bad. There is a very limited opportunity for all the things to work out the way you want and in order for any perfect shoot to happen, so many different elements have to come together. The fact that Model X did something in 2017 has nothing to do with what Model Y will do, or even with what Model X will choose to do 4 years later.

As far as release schedule, format, pricing, etc. are concerned, that's all dynamic. There's likely room for improvement on our side with respect to how release flow is managed. We are always accepting applications.
 
Also, one of the preview videos a long while back showed a clip of Alyssa Muoio participating in a pushup contest with 2 guys, is this actually present on any of her VODs?

I'm not sure.

Tre, I'm curious about this as I've been paying a lot of attention to OF recently. I'm wondering if that platform has had any effect on "staffing". Obviously if it's sensitive info, no worries, but one thing I've found pretty hilarious is the large number of women who may not even have considered being on cam in any capacity all of a sudden setting up shop and dropping XXX material.

We have seen a noticeable uptick in model signups and returning models during the pandemic, but it's tough to say whether OF has had any effects on their decisions to begin camming. We don't surf OF enough to know who is there and who isn't. I suppose it's possible that OF is a gateway to camming, but we suspect the majority of the increase is due to so many people staying at home.

There's also a subset of women who *stopped* camming for the same reason - they are at home all the time with their families and no longer have the time or privacy to go on live.

Fair enough, thanks for the frank and in-depth response. I guess I'll just have to hope that you release some good stuff again at some point and pick it up if you do.

I will say though that a ton of the VODs follow the same sort of formula and feature dozens of models doing the same sort of stuff (ie. lift and carry, squatting, curling a guy, resistance exercises, fantasy armwrestling, measurements, etc) so it isn't as if there's that much unpredictability or a shortage of takers when it comes to the content itself. It's only really the last few months that there's been a lack of strength content specifically and if anything the stuff you do now is way more out there than what you used to do even as close as 2019 so I'm not really buying the idea that in those last 3 months both the willingness of models to partake and the demand for strength content has suddenly dropped off a cliff. I'm gonna take this all to mean that you've decided to drop the strength stuff altogether and focus entirely on the fantasy/femdom angle.

I guess this also begs the question of why even bother having a membership section if you believe it's an antiquated system that you can't adequately support? I can't help but be reminded of those 2015-2018 years where you pretty much sold everyone on the fact that HBPlus was going to be a revolution in membership content as an excuse for neglecting the old member site (and screwing over those who'd paid for long-term memberships) completely. It's safe to say that the promised plethora of member content never materialised and now you've basically confirmed the model is outdated and the current subpar variety of content is about as good as it gets.

I really miss the metal bending clips. Of all the stuff that the women do, I think this often conveys a different part of their personality, especially since there isn't a human subject.

Thanks for the response, Tre. I hadn't considered those who might have kids or a significant other who they have been in lockstep with since last February and might not have been able to get away with schools and businesses closed. THough in my mind that makes someone like NoahTrapQueen all the more impressive since she's been on consistently ALL year and I've had a great time visiting in with her. There's also been the return of BeautyIsABeast, an old favorite of mine that had left for a couple of years and looks bigger/better than ever. So yeah there's definitely a bit of a give/take

The updates for the regular member area have been pretty good these last couple of weeks. A good variety of flexing, workout archive and interview clips, along with loads of good galleries and even some old VOD stuff. If the throughput was like this week in, week out I'm sure there'd be far more satisfaction with the membership.

I couldn't tell you when it was all filmed but there's definitely been a lot of content which hasn't been published before alongside the obvious archive stuff. The only shame is that most the girls aren't particularly that muscular.

I have a dumb question.  Do you guys know if there are any girls on HBC that are based out of Seattle?  Maybe it's just me, but I would rather spend my tip money on the local girls...who knows I may even run into them on the streets some day. lol

Are we ever going to see an increase in the upload schedule of archive clips? You could release like 3 high quality armwrestling clips per day and still have enough content for a year.

Backzilla reported there's a tech problem with uploading new videos to the HBC site. When it's fixed, there should be a good number of new vids released all at once. Hoping next week! Backzilla has some great new vids coming.

$8.50 for 7 minutes is on par with industry standards. I understand you may not wish to pay that for a video, but the price is not unreasonable.

That's not a true statement. All these VODs have a preview - https://www.herbiceps.com/vod-store/.

If you saw one that doesn't have a preview, it must have been a temporary glitch, but they are definitely working now.

Sorry I meant the webcam previews are gone. You used to be able to hover the mouse over a performer and see what is going on in their room. Now you can't

Noticed that too with the webcam previews. I miss that feature. I mentioned it to some ladies, and they seemed a little creeped out by it, so maybe the admin got rid of the feature.

Oh, yeah - that's gone. We may offer something similar in the future, but if we do, it would need to have an individual model opt-in election.

So now the women are going to have a revolving door of guys coming in for 5 seconds not saying anything and leaving. That is not any better
