            I voted "No", however I think they sold themselves out more than the rest of us.

            I would truly like to hear an explanation from Eric about this, and how it different from the Guba ad debacle from a few years back...

                      Yes right choice for them.

                      I would have prob took the money if it was my board so I can't be a hypocrite.

                      Apparently this ad brought in more than the ave ad so it's just biz. Doesn't mean they endorse the whole tube thing.

                              tubes don't scare me.

                              I'm against stealing content

                              I'm too lazy to find out for myself if those sites have stolen content, many say they have

                              Yet I'm aware of no small claims lawsuits against them for the theft..........

                                ...because they hide behind the DMCA. Tube8 and Pornhub wouldn't EXIST if not for stolen content. I wouldn't accuse them if it wasn't true. They can sue me for libel, bring it.

                                  When I first see the bg, first thing I think is hmmm someone in the tube game layed up some scratch. I don't really go the extra step and link it to GFY. But I understnd how many would feel betrayed.

                                  For the record i do think tubes took a shit in the traffic pool and were all wading in it but that has nothing to do with GFY. They're just in position to make money.

                                      The premise of the poll is flawed

                                      GFY did what they felt was in their best interest, Eric sold advertising and I am pretty sure thats the Vice President of Marketing job. I wonder if the President of the company would have been pleased to hear that he said no to a pile of cash that high

                                      it's still disappointing as hell though

                                              I did sign up there, and it's really dead. No offence... but I like GFY because it's fast. I'd completely own his board in a half hour if I posted there like I do here.

                                                    Mistake or sold out.. I don't know. "Sold out" depends on how many prostituting themselves... Personally I won't participate in any of these "campaigns".

                                                      It's business, and none of OUR business.

                                                      If one of you morally upstanding big hitters book the space, then its not available for the tube companies to rent is it?

                                                      Also, if GFY don't monetise, (from anybody they can) then all the post crap all day people have nowhere to go.

Since the owners of tube sites say it's user uploaded (and no one has proved otherwise, yet) then you have to follow DMCA. However, if you can prove in any manner that a company that runs the site stole your content, they CANNOT hide behind DMCA.

You can easily debate whether or not GFY should associate with tubes or whether they are harming others business or whether tube traffic converts...... but to deny or claim ignorance about the well established fact that they are stealing content is fucking pathetic. I know you are not actually that clueless so it fair to say you are sucking up to the big boys on the block for whatever reason.

When someone like Steve can't speak out on a board he supported for years then its time to tear it down and start over. I agree I am tired of being ripped off and ANYONE supporting theft is WRONG! Its that Simple. I will not be buying any advertising here ever again.
