Paul is one of those guys who knows enough to have achieved a little success but somehow convinces himself that he's at the top of the game when he so clearly isn't. His content was "OK" at best in the beginning of online porn.
Quite a few years ago, I flew to Brno to discuss working with him to bring a lot of Russian models to his studios to shoot for us. After a couple days of hanging out with him, both myself and the girl I brought with me were thoroughly repelled by his personality and childish behavior. His wife was very pleasant and kind however. But shit like sitting in a small shopping center and watching him oggle young girls, some of whom were with their parents and make loud comments that could easily be heard, or things like the fact that he kept talking to the girl I was with about licking pussy, when she was so obviously uncomfortable and stuff like that really made us both uncomfortable with him and his judgement. If that was putting his best foot forward,... I wasn't ready to see what he was like when he was comfortable around someone. He had some really grandiose plan to lease out his "studio" which looked like a small product display for IKEA for a retarded amount of money each day to major production studios and all kinds of weird ideas that seemed to be so out of touch with reality and that left me speechless to the point that all I could do was smile and nod.
Business wise he is done. After we spent time with him, we couldn't understand how he stayed in business at all. His content today looks absolutely the same as it did in 1998. His sites look like shit and everything he has online looks like a network that was abandoned many years ago.
Now that the marketplace, the industry, content delivery and users expectations keep changing, he spends his time attacking the way business is done because the industry has left him in the dust. All his arguments are to rationalize why he cant succeed and to place the blame for his inevitable failure at the feet of others who "aren't playing fair". He is too arrogant to do anything else. He couldn't even find a job because he is thoroughly unemployable with his personality and arrogance.
