I give up. Seriously, it's inane,indecipherable, arcane perhaps, and ultimately it feels somewhat futile. To what subject do I owe this display of utter dismay? The uploading process for videos and pictures... Or, more accurately and directly, the approval process for those features.

Somewhere close to a couple of years ago I believe it was that I first attempted to share videos on this site. I uploaded a couple of relatively innocent (for a site such as this) videos, both falling well within the stated guidelines and legality for the site. I daresay, much more than other videos that I had seen actually approved before. Maybe they weren't sexy enough? Not enough penetrating action? Too innocuous, even? Was a humorous take on things forbidden to be posted?

Below is one of the videos I attempted to upload with no success, or more to the point, no apparent approval. A silly video? Yes. But one that playfully has fun with sexual notions and evokes gay imagery, if done so in a simple, animated manner.

Is this beyond the pale? I have seen animation in approved videos on this site. Additionally, I have seen humorous videos. I have seen videos with no nudity, no sex, and in some instances, no gay theme other than the subject of a video was a male, typically a youth.

Thankfully, the overseers here do not so forcefully dictate or discriminate when it comes to embedded videos and pictures share in blogs and in comments on profile pages, so I was able to share the above video in some other capacity with others here. I addition, the video below was also seemingly rejected in the approval process, though, like the other video, I was able to embed it from another site into a blog here.

After the failure to get those videos approved, I stopped trying to upload videos here for some time. Eventually, though, I did try again with a more convention gay sex video. Again, the video met the terms for acceptance as outlined on the site. However, it was still apparently rejected.

In my blog entry earlier this past week I acknowledged with some surprise that at long last GBT accepted and approved a video that I uploaded last month. I was even more surprised when GBT did so again with a few more videos and even some pictures for a photo gallery I uploaded. Curiously, though, a video that was one of a three part series starring a rather endowed black man was not approved even though the other two parts were allowed to process and appear on the site. All three parts were very similar, with no discernible reason as to why one would not past muster. A mistake perhaps? Did it fall through the cracks, as it were?

I tried later to upload a few more videos. One went through fine, but one featuring a rotund masturbator was not accepted. The video fell in line with the average solo "chicken choking" video around these parts, except that the person pleasuring himself was one rather plump fellow. Could this be fat shaming? Discrimination against fat fucks flogging their meat? Funny, if so. The site includes categories fpr many varied appetites: Asians, Blacks, Latinos, foot fetish, assplay, frat guys, straight guys, vintage, movie, music videos, and even... FEMALES... on a gay site. So, a hefty hoss heaving his lumber... A chubby weed-whacker, that is not allowed?

Interesting, if so.

And just last night, I tried to upload a photo gallery of celebrated gay artist Harry Bush. Surely, that would be approved? No, not so, it seems.

Is this an issue of quality control? A lack of consistency? Varying tastes of those that sit and approve the videos?

I note many videos past muster that don;t even pass the "law" of the land, strictly-speaking. But somehow my silly sex cartoons, campy kooky drag vid, and fat fucker videos, and Harry Bush artwork are not acceptable. Okay.

Am I the only one on the site who has troubles with getting seemingly acceptable videos and pictures accepted? It really hinders on my getting involved and contributing to the site when I face these issues. At some point it becomes not worth the bother.
