I never got a single e-mail from you even though you said you would send me a list of sites, the ones you pointed out in the other thread were all removed before you posted them. You also never showed me a single rights holder that you actually represent.

Show us all what companies and rights you actually represent or kindly go fuck yourself you big bully. I mean that in the kindest way possible, but I also personally don't like the way you act with your public threats and I doubt any real lawyers would condone your method of operation.

This is not even something I want to be debating, but I have (and a lot others too I think) had it with your public trolling.

To get back on topic

Yes. We are killing the existing system and unfortunately that also means we have to kill all the existing sites. This is not something I am doing for fun, because the existing system represents a pretty big investment that I am more or less just throwing out the window.

It's been a very bumpy ride and I have for a very long time, not at all been happy with the performance or the development level we were at. It's been in open beta for a year and we still have some very basic problems.

Some time ago, I had two independent parties review the system. One of them I have worked for a while with in mainstream and the other is in adult too. Both came to the same conclusion: It's better and faster, to rebuild the whole system than it is to fix the old one.

Since we have rewritten everything we won't be able to port any of the existing sites over, well we could, but we'd have to spend a lot of time parsing data (we're talking months here). I manually checked a large number of sites based on traffic and the vast majority was either broken, not updated or just not of a very high quality.

Most of the sites were blogs, but I have had a plugin build as was pointed out - so you can export everything and go elsewhere. I can see that there are competitors with wordpress based technology in here that would love to host your sites.

The tubes are almost all with sponsor embeds and you can rebuild tube sites in the new system that are:

- more flexible and looks a whole lot better.
- are created in maximum 20 seconds.
- can auto update and spin the content
- loads much faster and are of responsive design so they work on all platforms (so you won't be hit by the latest Google smartphone update)
- use a huge legal content database we have in our system, so importing content is very easy and can be done in a number of ways - no more waiting up to 2 minutes for a freaking list to load!

The blogs are also written from the ground up and will be able to work more flexible and requires less resources to run than Wordpress (that is quite a hog when it comes to consumption). They can auto update, spin content and do a bunch of cool stuff.

But I can certainly understand the frustration. This is not something I wanted to do, but I also didn't want to keep offering people a service that didn't really work properly. My goal is to help people make money here (and make some myself too obviously) and the current state the system is in is just not making it easy. At all.

The non-beta version draws on all the experiences we've had over the last year (except the technician that built the existing system has been let go and new people have built the new) and I am confident that people will like it.

We are also freeing up the thousands of sub-domains that was registered but never used, implementing new ticket based support systems and introducing a premium function that allow you to edit more or less everything on your sites. No more locked ugly templates!
