Recently with a few other "older" webmasters he was on a podcast reliving the history of online adult industry.

How many other places have gone by the wayside?

GONE:
PornResource
iBill
CozyFrog


DEAD:
Paul Markham: Photographer, probably one of the best ever (Heart Failure, cancer)
David Lace: Photographer, one of the largest ever collections (Heart attack)
JFPDude: Content guy, photographer (Drug Overdose)
Turboface: Traffic, scammer (Patrick Tither, suicide)
TurboAngel: Traffic, scammer (Last information was rehab, then silence)
LowKeyTx: Photographer, arrested for child p***, (James Greuel, Cancer)
GraphicsByTia: Graphics, Banners, Buttons (Suicide)

So many webmasters have died from this forum that actually helped shape the adult industry, it is now a skeleton of what it once was.

Looking at PRE 2005 webmasters, how many are actually left here on GFY?


Boneprone
Lensman
SexToyKing


anyone else left?
Can you please identify the podcast you're referring to, many of us would like to listen to it.

Didn't realize Turboface and Turboangel were scammers. I knew they split up and had some financial struggles.

Also Mayya, your English is vastly improved from all your previous posting, are you sure this isn't your boyfriend posting this?
