[MaDalton]

stop calling your company like that?

[Buzz]

that's why I hate holiday cards from adult companies

[Wilsy]

Nice of them to bother even sending a card though

[LeRoy]

My 3 year old daughter doesnt get the mail anyway.

It's all good.

Thanks for the card Shap!

[Phoenix]

ah well...its the thought that counts

[djroof]

wtf?????????

[Shap]

Hi can you email me an example. Do you have an adult company name? What happens when you deposit checks?

[Shap]

Hopefully. Considerable amount of time, work and money was spent on the card. I'm kinda bummed to see this thread. I'm curious to see if we made a huge blunder here.

So you want the money into your Free Fuck Sluts company account sir?

Yes!!!

[Shap]

I wonder what's better. Getting something c/o your company name which your checks and other mail would be sent to. Or all of a sudden getting something c/o your personal name. Personally I'd prefer it to go to my company name. That's why we did it the way we did. Were we wrong?

[Agent 488]

could be worse. company name could have been fuckthemailmanswife.com

[PR_Glen]

i used to be a 25 cent fuck slut but the damn depreciation of the dollar has turned me into a free fuck slut.

hard times indeed...

Or please fuck my wife now inc

[NaughtyVisions]

Along the same lines, my AVN comes nicely wrapped in a black plastic bag. So along with my AVN the other day, to my home address, comes a flyer for AVN Adult Entertainment Expo, complete with porn stars' pics plastered all over it.

Thanks!

[12clicks]

now it all makes sense!
the mail man has been chatting me up all week.
turns out, I used Shap's little known gay program a while back.

[Shap]

Also our card had no nudity (and no porn implications at all, and was sealed in an envelope) and was specifically designed to be a non adult card. I feel bad if your company name is something vulgar and this was embarrassing for you. I have to think you are going to be one of the few in that situation. Please email me at mrshap at twistys.

your name and address

as much as id like to say they shouldn't, if you can't handle being in the adult biz, then dont be. if you are afraid to get mail at your moms house saying "Fucking Slut Fuckers" as your company name then 1) dont use that name or 2) leave

its your decision to name your company and if you fear getting mail then name it something else

[arock10]

Vivid has Vivid entertainment for the return address on its checks, cant get too much more obvious then that

[Pornofreak]

I'm just guessing it was possibly my site name back in 2001 when I signed up. cant see me entering that as a company name, but who knows it was a long time ago.

Sometimes webmasters will have a Company Name and a Pay To name, which are different. The company name will be adult in nature, and the Pay To name is often the webmasters real name.

Now I'm not saying this is the case with this individual, but it is common practice.

Also, why do people try to make someone feel childish for making a complaint, and the person "putting them in their place" tries to degrade them by implying they live with their mother. To me, that is the ultimate in being childish.

I have always believed that just because someone is in adult, it does not mean they have to scream it from the roof tops and let everyone know what they do. It is no ones business but their own. Now some webmasters are young, care free and don't give a flying fuck who knows what they do. Others live in good family neighborhoods, have children in local schools and would prefer no one finds out what they do.

We become so hardened in adult, we often forget what a total shock it is to the average Jo. They forget that a lot of average people, upon hearing you are in adult, believe that you actually perform, you probably have a sexually transmitted disease, run around naked all the time, have wild sex parties and are a pedo. No way in hell they would let their children anywhere near theirs.

Mistakes happen, and if this did happen, I am sure Twisty's did not want to cause distress to any of the people they sent cards to. However, all companies should take note and have someone do the boring task of scanning over the recipient list to make sure there is nothing of an adult nature destined for the envelopes.

We are going through our list now. I see a handful of people that it looks like it's the site name (definitely not their company name). Going to email them a heads up and also correct that and try to find out if that was something done on our end or when the people joined.

[Shap]

Btw PornoFreak thanks for bringing this up. I'm still trying to figure out if this was a mistake by us or not. Email me if you could. I'm very sensitive to being discreet in terms of our communication with business partners. Thanks to this post I've located 8 affiliates that may feel the way you do. I'm sending them a heads up now. I'm guessing you may be one of them.

[Speedy26]

I got mine it says..

Crazy Naked Chick
C/O
my name & address


LMAO, the only bad part is my mailman is a women and likes to gossip.

You were on our list as one of the people we are emailing about that. Sorry about that. How'd you like the card?

[Speedy26]

[epitome]

I never knew so many webmasters were embarrassed at what they did.

Listen, if multiple tube sites dominate the top 100 sites in the world, the mailman likely looks at porn ... and will use one of those sites to get off and not by jacking off to the name printed on the envelope of your Christmas card.

Lighten up or get a PO box.

Oh, so this actually says company name? I thought is says domain name of the site or something. It can't be Twisteys fault if you name your company like that.

don't be a retard. to be involved in porn is still to be a social pariah and there are many reasons to be discreet such as family, banking, friends, partner's employment, local media, your children, other business ventures and on and on.

to not get that is insular and self-centered.

[KingRedOnion]

1. Booo now card for me.
2. Shaps sig gif pwns.

I got a Fubar magazine once addressed with our program name.. and at the time I was in a very small office complex with lawyers and financial planners. That magazine was 'accidentally' delivered to our neighbor who brought it over to us.. and who was considerably less friendly afterward.

Luckily I didn't give a crap, if it were my home it would have sucked.

[stever]

lol
merry xmas Fucking Sluts In The Ass inc.

Could be worse. You could've gotten a massive gift basket from CECash and Cybererotica full of goodies - shirts, caps, tasty treats, cheese and crackers, sparkling wine, and various and sundry sex industry related items.

When THAT arrives, the whole family gathers 'round.

Actually, I really miss those gift baskets

[woj]

If you are trying to hide, don't use an adult sounding company name, wtf?

exactly

and what we are doing now may come up in 5 or 10 years somewhere we don't expect it, being as discrete as possible is the smart thing to do at all times

[SmokeyTheBear]

we need some photos of cards in this thread please

In NATS on the information page is the company name then once you click next there is a place for the Payable to. My bet is that you guys used company names over payable to.

For company we put TopBucks since that's easy to pull up for people and our payable is Automatic Payment Processing which is found once you click next on the edit information page. Accounting flipped one time thinking we were putting in "TopBucks" as our payable to.

Sucks that it happened, but easy mistake to make.

[Klen]

Yes i hate this too,despise the fact my company name is not adult,but i really dont see need for company name listed,it's enough name and last name and address,cant be missed unless your home/office is in building.

[lagcam]

I would like to hear damianj's opinion on adult companies sending christmas cards in the mail.

Personally I would never do it, as it seems cheesy, but I am no marketing expert. Just think that only mothers or old people get excited about receiving a paper christmas card.

probably has more to do with the fact that you've been coming to the door in a leather mask, assless chaps, and a ball gag in your mouth....
