(I wish there were more serious business people like those companies have) but yet to read some people like 12 dicks for example or Bradshaw posts they will tell you that there is no room left that they control the money and they are the shit .... the only shit they are to me is BULLSHIT!
anybody have any thoughts on this?

I have lots of thoughts on this. My first thought was triggered by you using ?Hustler? and ?Class? in conjunction with each other. From what I have seen, read, and been told?..Larry Flynt himself has resorted to everything that you are complaining about here. Although Larry is not a class act, he built an empire that is.
The world changes and with those changes come different ways of doing business. One of those ways can be these message boards. If GFY were around when Larry Flynt was starting out then he would almost certainly be a very outspoken figure here.
I also get a kick out of the mere suggestion that ANYBODY who posts to GFY on a regular basis is even close to being comparable to either Hustler or Vivid.

The basic theme of your thread does have valid points but you would have been better off if you really knew a thing or two about SleazyDream. He is by far one of the most giving people I have ever met in this business. ?money motivated, very greedy, and obviously afraid to really help anyone? does not describe him in any way, shape, or form.

I would once again like to point out that at NO TIME has SleazyDream ever said he considered himself elite. What he has done is thrown parties for those in the industry that HE considers to be Elite. There is a huge difference there.

Yet each of these same people have achieved more than 90%+ of the GFY members. Each of them has also helped me in one way or another. They are all much more successful than I am and they truly have nothing to gain from assisting me other than my friendship and lets be real for a moment??WTF does my friendship have to offer them professionally? Not a God Damn thing. These people are not greedy, they are selective. Most likely because they have been burned enough times by others who fucked them over.
My Jerry Springer final thoughts:
The companies and or people that Joesho is condemning are guilty primarily of telling it like it is. They pull no punches and take no prisoners. Their words and actions may not be approved of by some people but nobody is liked by 100% of the population. Besides that...They do have a positive impact on this industry...Either by A: Chasing away a potential industry thorn or B: Strengthening those who have the raw determination that is needed to overcome today's obstacles.
The dog and pony shows that you see on these boards are not the same actions that go on behind closed doors. Whether people want to believe it or not is of no concern to those who are making any decent coin.
I dare not compare myself to the others that have been mentioned in this thread but through their generosity, I hope to surpass their success in the not so distant future.
I kiss nobodies ass but I sure as hell will show some respect for those who have seen enough in me to freely offer their advice, services, and friendship to a guy who can not equally return the favor.
Until next time...GoFuckYourself...And each other.
