hey /e/,

is it strange that i habitually collect (and i mean i have a LOT of it) hentai, doujinshi and /e/ stuff yet never actually fap to it? i feel like i have ecchi OCD or something.

Likewise. The worst part is when I see an image I know I already have, but I feel the need to save again anyway. :( I am a digital packrat.

i am actually surprised that anyone at all is the same way; it seems so retarded when i actually consider it but, well... yeah. hmm, i wonder what the explanation is.

I packrat a few favorites, but otherwise skip 'em if I know I have 'em.

I periodically weed out my porn folders. I arrange them by date and start at the oldest since those are the most likely to get tossed out. I find that what I thought was worth saving at the time I saw it is generally of little interest to me later. I separate the stuff into folders for my absolute favorites (i.e., the few out of the many I repeatedly fap to), a general folder for poses and such for reference for my own art, and a temp folder that is the stuff most likely to get deleted after a second pass. I also dump everything into one folder and resort photos, ecchi, and henti. I usually manage to whittle my collection down from maybe 2000-3000 that I've amassed over a year to a solid collection of 1000 of the best. Then I back it up on CD. The mini-disks are handy since the whole thing rarely exceeds 250 megs and they're easy to keep stored without someone tripping across them in your regular CDs.

I do that too.

I don't fap to all of it. Not enough time.

I mostly use them for a quick bonar, wheich addmittedly, will do the trick for me.

I used to know where to find the torrent of that artist's work, and now I can't even remember her name. Help a fellow anon out?

I'm going to start arranging my collection by date (or modified, since XP doesn't have an "arrange by date created" option) when it needs a trim. It's so simple yet it never occurred to me. Thanks, Anonymous!

I am also most like these three people. I KNOW I have a picture I'm looking that that I know that I have determined it to be a favorite in the past that I also know has been saved and is somewhere in my HD and... I save it anyways. Also, once it's saved that's it, I don't fap to it at all... Just for show it seems. Once I was tempted, but didn't actually get to doing it. =p

I do this too, usually while thinking "I sure as hell don't remember where I put it the first time."

I have a lot of ecchi, and I never fap to it too... o.o

But, y'know what... I know the cause of this. xD~

When I want to see some good Ecchi, or when I see a good thread here, I have my collection... It's not organized AT ALL, but it's ok, I just seem to remember where are my favourite pics... Nad even not fapping, I can use it to illustrate scenes that I imagine when I'm trying to describe it to someone, or I can use them as a model when I'm drawing, or I can use them as inspiration, or whatever...

It's cool to have a lot of hentai... And if someday the Internet dies and everyone starts to suicide, I can still fap before the end of the world, if I want to (Kidding. xD~).

Seems to be relevant to your interests.

Probly everyone who has been more than once displays this kind of behaviour. I used to have shitloads, and every few months I'd kill it all. I like firefox, because that way I can have all the images I like open and after i have finished fapping [and brain functions are back to normal] I sort out the stuff that's worth keeping.

I'm amazed how much easier to manage my collection/addiction is when using the post-fap-sort.

I don't fap to my piucs, but I have a small selection saved, as well.
When I first started saving ecchi I saved EVERYTHING i even remotely liked, but now I am so much more selective.
ANd I periodically go through and delete pics. Ahh, fun. My image collection is realy quite small, no CDs needed!
