Yeah, ummm, there is a few episodes I wanted to go to town with again and they don't exist cause "The Pornhubs" took them down. Also I'm banned from "The Emporniums", apparently I had two accounts on the same IP so I'm screwed there too...LOL.
Any suggestions?

Here's my two cents: planning an effective archive system will take time and effort, but surely it's something the community should think of.
In the meantime, each user willing to help could "adopt" one or more videos, taking on the task to keep them available for others (via Torrent, Mega link or whatever).
We could keep a list of adopted videos, possibly combining it with the HD Cock Hero Downloads Index; of course, each video could be adopted by more than one users.

I think this should be a pretty quick way to solve the problem for now, while we think about and plan a more robust solution.

I have a large HomeServer here to back them up and make them available if that would be a possibility.

Only I don't have any of these videos.
If there is interresse could perhaps save them all and then create an archive. Enough space would be available.

I think any single website is eventually going to be taken down. I think the best method would be to have multiple virtual torrent seed boxes in different locations/jurisdictions around the globe. No single point of failure. If one gets taken down, a new one can pop up and resync. The cost should be around US $50 to $100 a year per box, depending on storage and traffic. If this becomes a reality. I'll put up the first $100. I would just do this from my home, if it weren't for the potential liability issues.

If you can do it, I don't know how it would be possible cause of the dmca guidlines these days, i think thats why most of them got deleted idk

I have a few ideas for this. Let me do some testing and I will get back with you guys.

Instead of using torrent and seedboxes another idea would be to use a decentralized protocol such as LBRY.
They have a youtube-like website for the general public ( odysee.com ) but adult content is not allowed there. It is using the LBRY protocol under the hood though, and there are lots of adult videos there. They just need to use the "mature" tag so that they are not referenced on odysee.
To access them all you need to do is to install the LBRY app on your PC/phone, and look for videos. As long as someone on the network has the video, it should be accessible and the decentralized nature of the protocol makes it impossible to censor/block any content at the protocol level. They can of course remove content from the odysee.com website by using filters, but the content can always be accessible under the hood.
I think it could be a good alternative. The LBRY app lets you stream content directly, and could be less of a hassle for users than downloading with torrent.

So I have looked, I really like this LBRY app. There are a lot of people that have posted Cockhero videos. But they charge almost 2 credits per video (seems like quite a bit due to only being able to earn a certain amount for free). I am uploading what I can find and making a super low credit charge to get the video (0.00001) to view the video. This will allow the content to be more easily discovered and trusted per Lbry.

The link to the channel is https://open.lbry.com/@CockHero:4

Just remember that you have to download and install LBRY to be able to view the channel. You also must enable mature content.

Hopefully, we can make this the new place for CockHero, although it is not as easy as pornhub was.
