Or a reset button, to reset back to an earlier time in your life with all the knowledge you've learned.
I have dreams like this all the damn time. It's like I'm back in Middle school but I have all my current knowledge. So strange...
I dunno, I wouldn't want to relive the 90s though. You couldn't even buy a vowel on Wheel of Fortune because the grunge movement stole them all for their music. The 80s were even worse...
I was 18 in 1991, if I could reset to then, I would have started producing WAM a lot earlier, I would have used the money from it to invest in some properties in London's docklands, or anywhere in London really. I would have filmed loads and loads of content and kept it unreleased until the internet became a real thing and then sold a property or two in London and build a massive, WAM studio.
I also would have invested in Facebook, Google and bought a load of bitcoins. Then I would sell those off and buy a chain of 50 nightclubs.
Trouble is, i'd have to meet Lisa in the same place and time, try to get her to love me despite me being different to how I was first time around and have sex at exactly the right moment so that the successful sperm (out of millions) that made it to conception was my son, hahaha. Wow.

Yeah, so even if I could, would I? Nope.
Feeling a little sop sop are we babe?
Regis obviously I was just looking for a wam god.. if only you'd been 2 minutes earlier
I was 18 in 1991, if I could reset to then, I would have started producing WAM a lot earlier,
1991 was the last year I actually had a real job working for a Corporation, and then I got laid off, so I decided to become a bum and turn my wam hobby into something where I could not only have some wam fun, but also pay a few bills to support my degenerate lifestyle. I guess I got into the wam business at the right time and I was in the right place....i.e. outside of the UK.....because it was almost impossible to create a viable wam business in the UK in 1991 because there was no such thing as online media and in those days the only product you could make were VHS tapes, and the 1930s era UK law requiring BBFC certificates on all movies and videos released were basically a huge $3000 tax on every new video released, meaning unless you sold thousands of units you could not recover your expenses. I was luckily in Florida and was not subject to UK BBFC certification laws. In 1991 if you were in the UK and wanted to become a wam producer you would be better off moving to Spain and basing your wam business outside of the UK.
Once the internet opened up in 1995 and broadband speeds arrived which gave birth to online media in 2001....that negated the UK's BBFC laws so the best time window for a wam business was 2001 to 2005....but that was a short window of opportunity because after 2005 Godzilla (Youtube) arose from the sea and stomped on us all and then digital cameras became so cheap and had the quality of pro cameras, so then everybody became a producer and the number of people creating wam media exploded from 10 people to 300+ producers very quickly.....i..e. wam was diluted and turned from "wine" into "water".
In 1991 Gold was $350 an ounce so investing in Gold could have made you a 400% return by today....it is easy to look back and have regrets.....e.g. I bought my first house in London in 1974 for 11,000 Pounds.....and I sold it 5 years later for 70,000 Pounds....thinking I had made a killing......but if I had held onto that house....it is currently valued at 475,000 pounds today.....what a dummy I was for selling too early. Mind you, when I bought my first house you could buy a brand new Lambourghini Miura for $20,000.....and if you held onto that car, they now sell for $3 million to $5 million at the auction houses.
wammer83 said: For example, I make wam videos exclusively in the "gig" economy, as well as through corsepondents through social media. I have so many women interested in trying wam, but not enough $ for supplies. These are women who aren't even interested in making a profit, they just need the $20-30 for the needed supplies.
That's exactly the problem I'm having right now. I didn't decide to do this as a career move, but just for fun. All I aim to do is earn enough to purchase supplies for my next session. Unfortunately, even that is not easy.
This is interesting, and the whole reason why I took up the "freemium" model for my videos, yet I'm breaking even somehow. I've talked openly with people about the lack of quality male WAM content out there -- I wonder if that's the reason? Perhaps the female market is too saturated? Or maybe male fans tend to open their wallets more easily/frequently? Or perhaps people are more willing to pay to watch something a little more sexual, and less willing to pay for something that isn't?

I'm glad you two found each other. I think everything happens for a reason and in its time. This is why I wouldn't want to change anything either. Yeah we go through a lot of crap in life, but if we didn't, then maybe we wouldn't have the people we have. I think about that everyday.
One one hand - With the price of the tools to make videos going down, I think there will be an explosion of producers. This explosion will lower prices of videos, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. If halving the price triples your volume, then everyone is better off, you and your customers.
On the other hand - The internet as the general populace knows it is always in a state of near-collapse. Either from the "think of the children" coalition, who want to make sure you have as little fun as possible (see the UK), or those looking for new and innovative ways to charge you more for the same or a lesser level of service (see the US).
If we can manage to not blow ourselves up in the next ten years, let hope scenario A is the outcome.
One other aspect I didn't catch in the thread so far.
If you want to see what WAM will look like in 10 years from now, go window shopping at the most expensive department stores and Bridal stores you can find today, and look at the clothes that are selling for big bucks now (especially wedding dresses). Whatever is in fashion today and expensive will be old, donated, and ready to be bought at the thrift stores then for pennies on the Dollar (or Pound) and prime for a final outing in the mud, etc. followed by ripping, cutting, etc. and just outright destruction. Fashions change, times change, and Vera Wang type dresses that today might cost $10,000 plus will be dug out of the bins and ready to go play in mud in.

The fact you are trying to push a shitty political agenda in thread on a niche fetish site probably says everything about your ability to "educate" people on this particular subject.

THIS is a very shrewd insight that I didn't not even remotely think about. I think back to some of my favorite sets over the years which tend to be from the 90s, and you can see the distinct difference in clothes, hairstyles, etc.
I read yesterday on a female wrestling site that Kym Jane said she plans on doing what she is doing now until she is old and grey. So in ten years, she should still be around! And she'll probably still be pretty hot!
As a customer I see a very grim future. As the cost to produce wam videos skyrocket and my income plummet I cant afford to buy and support your content therefore you all go out of business.

This has always been a very niche fetish so it won't be "mainstream" as far as I can tell among the fetish community but I think the future is great at best and stable at worst. It's nice to see more and more amateurs coming out into the community here and joining the excellent veterans such as Ariel and Candy among others (you both are my absolute fav's, keep up the excellent work), and with cell phones starting to become excellent quality recorders it's becoming easier for amateurs to jump in especially if their style doesn't involve a ton of substances that rears a hefty shopping bill. All in all as long as the majority of models and producers don't do the same exact type of scene with the same exact substances over and over and over again you'll have people always show a keen interest.

"What do you think the UMD, and Wam in general will be like in ten years?" I personally feel WAM will have more of a toe hold in the fetish world. It will not be consider a niche fetish anymore.
"Which producers will still be producing?" The creative producers will still be producing. We attend to be one of those producers.
"Which models will still be modeling?" Some of the current generation models will age out and move on. Sorry, but that's just the facts of life for models.
"Will CGI, VR and AI be playing much of a role?" No, CGI will never replace the real deal.
"What will the new trends be as the veterans of the Nickelodeon, YCDTOTV and TISWAS eras... fade away...?" The new trend is happening now. Today, this generation is finding what makes them happy from the internet. I'm sure many have found their WAM fetish this way.
"Will the scene become more mainstream, less taboo?" WAM has been mainstream since the very first pie hit was captured on film. Some just see it as comedy and move on. While others become aroused and want to see more. This applies to anything in the world that is considered mainstream. It's basically whatever influenced you sexually at the development ages. Different "strokes" for different folks.
When I think of VR-WAM I think of immersing myself in a scene recorded on a 360-degree camera https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/360-degree_video . Maybe technically that is not "virtual reality" but I think many of us are referring to it as such. It may not be the Holodeck, but hopefully it will be a lot more "real" in 10 years and a lot more affordable for both producers and viewers. We're pretty close already and it could leave the non-360 TV-clip videos on YouTube looking really, REALLY flat. So, potentially some meaningful territory for producers.
But next level would be a sensory bodysuit that interacts with such a video. Just as a crude example, a model with a mess-resistant 360-degree camera on their head wears a bodysuit that records all the subtle pressure sensations of being pied and slimed by other models, and then the visual playback syncs up with the tactile playback in the viewer's bodysuit. You could get messy without getting messy! Just imagine taking a snippet of getting pied and looping it over and over again... ummm, along with other fun activities
Next level after that would be a chatroom with full visual and sensory interactivity, and for us wammers, enhanced with virtual mess

You could be right, but I've heard an alternate theory: people who've tried 360 degree video get "FOMO" (Fear Of Missing Out). I.e. if you constantly feel that you need to check over your shoulder in case something important's happening then you won't really relax and enjoy what you're watching. It might be better suited to still photos than videos.
I'd be more interested in something like "bullet time" (from The Matrix). As I understand it, they achieved the effect by having a circle of cameras all pointed in towards the centre. So, if a producer did that, you could effectively walk around and watch the same thing from different angles. (Or more likely just lean in one direction and turn your head.) However, I suspect that this would be ludicrously expensive and beyond most producers' budgets!
