At least allow users the option to upload the video directly.

3. I don't see actually user engagement so it's hard to believe that users will come back in the long term when the site isn't deliverying for them. So the only benefit your site offer the user right now is a collection of porn content which is available everywhere.

This could be a great site in the porn category if there were dedicated fans who were providing the source for the videos, but building an audience that actively comes on your site to find source for others sounds infeasible or extremely difficult to say the least.
Maybe you could have a points system that rewarded users that provided source but that's hardly an incentive to do free work. I wish you luck with your site.
Thanks for solid feedback.

1. This will be amended soon.

2. This is still MVP version of the product to test the idea out, so in the future we will have API that will allow to upload to gfycat thru us.

3. Users do engage, primarily via upvotes, then secondary via finding sources and lastly through comments. We only have 1200 registered users so far and we still missing critical mass of users to find sources accurately.

The fact that users register and return to the site is what validates the idea in the first place, at the moment there were 240 sauces submitted by users. In terms of rewards/incentive I do have some ideas for that, but that's also second stage of development.
