Master-X Forum review: 3.5/5, recommended in Porn Forums

What Master-X Forum is

Master-X Forum is a Russian-language business board for adult webmasters: people who run adult sites, buy and sell traffic, or work with affiliate programmes. It is a place to discuss the trade, not a place to watch anything — there are no videos or galleries on it. The site has existed since 1999 according to its footer and its About page. The board runs on the site’s own software.

Guest access and registration

On the check of 3 October 2026 the index, the boards and ordinary topics opened without an account. One topic linked from the index redirected to the login form, and the login page says that the Catalogue and Members sections become readable only after signing in. Posting needs a registered account; the login form uses a captcha. Membership is free.

Rules: what is banned

The rules page bans discussion and advertising of illegal adult resources and links to a definition: a legal site contains no images of models who look younger than 18 and no scenes of sexual violence, among other points. Also banned are fraud topics such as carding and click fraud, trojans and adware, file-sharing services, cracked software, spam and insults. Three warnings from the administration can end in a ban.

Who runs it and language

The About page describes the owners as a team of Russian-speaking webmasters who have worked in the adult industry since 2000 and took the site over in autumn 2001; no company is named. The rules state that the site is in Russian for Russian-speaking webmasters and ask members to write in Russian, apart from industry terms. Login labels are duplicated in English and an English advertising page exists, but the discussions are in Russian.
