Summer Update

So, many things did not go as planned.  Refer to previous notice updates if you like.  But at least the updated server runs well, and there is HD space to spare (to a point), and several obnoxious bugs were fixed.  Speaking of which, the next time I need space to allow video uploads to continue unabated, instead of a physical upgrade, I will be removing the oldest 3 or 4 years of content/videos.  There will be plenty of warning prior to that change.

IRL I moved.  My office was packed up and inaccessible for a time.  During that time, the site was hacked, and although I'm sure many of you would like to complain about the current amount of advertising on the site, the EVEN MORE advertising popups from almost every click, was not from me.  A security flaw in the site's garbage software was finally found and fixed.  This had also broken some basic site functionality, which has been restored already.

As for previously mentioned plans: my partner stopped working with me, and derailed the whole move towards a premium option.  The next solution then is to switch things up completely to an entirely new software to run the site.  This will likely be completely disruptive, but there are many reasons to change to a better system.  Finally, I still plan on obliterating all the tags to start fresh.

So that is all for now.  Thanks for being a part of the Naughty Machinima community, and enjoy your summer!

Removing all Tags

With the tag system improved - and consequently completely breaking the old system often leaving useless longs strings of words, I decided I will obliterate all tags.  It's time for a clean slate and a fresh start. Once this is done, you will be able to properly tag your content, using single words or phrases, all separated by commas.

I know some people will still ignore this, and I don't know why, especially given that since the major updates earlier this year I have provided as fundamental an explanation as possible directly on the upload page, but here it is again:

Use Commas to separate! Multi word tags are supported.

Correct: small boobs, hard fucked, sfm, lara croft, tombraider

Incorrect: small boobs hard fucked sfm lara croft tombraider


As everyone retags their stuff, the system will repopulate and have properly linked tags throughout the site.

More fixes and Moderation

Hello Naughty Machinima community, 

If you are interested in helping out with moderation, just send me a PM with a little info.

You may have noticed that the long lasting ghost notifications have been cleared out.
(Message or friend request notification numbers when in fact they aren't there any more)
That happened when an account (like a spammer) gets deleted, their unread message count or pending friend requests remain in your user menu.
Now that I can remove the left over notifications cleanly, there will be an automagical system that will maintain this.  So they may again appear from time to time but will be wiped out shortly.

Next, I have completed the modifications to the categories for both videos and images, as well as recategorized as best as possible existing videos that didn't have one of these new categories.
The previous tag system only allowed for one word tags, but phrases are now supported.  Please use commas to separate your tags on uploads.  As it is, all prior tags became one long string of words in the update so for existing videos, you may edit your tags and comma separate as you see fit, if you would prefer not having a single stupid long tag per video.

Next will be to allow videos to be uploaded to more than one category, which will enable better organization of content, and viewer filtering that is a feature on the way.

Most importantly, before all that I am seeking moderators, if this is something you would like to do, please send me a PM directly.

Next steps

Thank you for your patience as we continue to roll out changes and fixes.

Uploads are working again, as well as new user registrations.  Email is now working again.

Some of the feedback is requesting the option for the dark skin like previously, so that is first on the list.

Next will be further streamlining of categories, to then allow for filtering out content you might not like to see.  This will mean recategorizing a LOT of content.

Once a moderater elevated account has been created, this will be one of the tasks to help with, along with moderating spam, inappropriate uploads, and rude comments.

To allow for filtering out content to work (switching on/off animal or gay content for example), new videos will be allowed to upload to up to 3 categories at once, and old videos will be editable to do so.

These are near term plans for now, and it will take however long it takes to complete this phase.

New Updates 2024

Over the next few days, your favorite CGI porn site Naughty Machinima, which has always resided on a dedicated server, will be moved to a newer, faster server. Increased cores, more ram, an updated OS, and faster drives. Along with these performance improvements comes much more disk space, which is currently almost full. This will provide more space for all the new videos that are regularly uploaded by the NM community, while retaining all of the previous content.

So there will be some down time, and potentially some minor issues that may need to be tackled once the migration is complete, to ensure the software running the site stays operational. After this is complete, there are many improvements to the website itself planned to go into effect.

There is work being done to upgrade the site's software from 7.0 to 8.2, which will fix ghost notifications, add better tags, and a better commenting system, among other things.

Then there is a roadmap for adding new features and organization to Naughty Machinima. Here are some planned features/changes:
  •     User controlled filtering of content
  •     New categories/removing redundant ones
  •     Uploading to up to three categories (like it was in the past) instead of just one
  •     Moderation system (will be reaching out to volunteers who are qualified)
  •     Tighter user profiles
  •     A Paid Premium option to turn off all advertising as well as other nifty bonuses.
  •     A Platinum account option which brings more robust features to those of you who have been requesting this.
Thanks for being a part of the Naughty Machinima community, and happy new year!
