I just find it amusing that the only JAV I download isthe uncensored stuff, and yet, it seems that there's some sort of stigma against it
It's not that it seems so, there is actually a stigma. And for a good reason too.
The problem with uncensored movies is not the content in itself (although 99% of the times the overall quality and production value is considerably lower to mainstream JAV releases).
The problem lies in what an uncensored release tells you about an actress. Desperation, fading away, quick buck... For the most part, if your favourite actress goes uncensored, you are in a world of shit. 5 or 6 months, and you will never hear from her ever again.
There are, as I said, exceptions.
But yeah, get over it. Uncensored movies are copyrighted in the US, and I'd rather lose a particular section in the forum, than having the whole site shut down because of some legal BS.
