is Paul Markam the village idiot?

[Grapesoda]

seriously, every comunity needs/has one... is charley ours? I was looking over the latest threads with manwin and twistys... wow the dude is in outer space...

[Juicy D. Links]

[DamianJ]

It's taken you this long to realise?

Lollerskates.

He's actually a morphing RSS feed. All he ever does, aside from libel me, is say that we shouldn't give away porn and that we should spend more on content. And he calls anyone that disagrees with him names rather than make intelligent counter point.

[babymaker]

Cam_Girls for the win but mark-HAM is damn close lol............MAGAZINE I TELLLS YA

They was king back in dem gold minin days :D

[Fat Panda]

yes and cam_girls & fatfoo too

[seeandsee]

where is fatfoo, he slowed down

[babymaker]

[ottopottomouse]

Old people think differently.

[Fat Panda]

anyone with a brain on gfy has fatfoo on ignore, fuck his bot

[wehateporn]

He must have forgot where he was in the Twistys thread, probably regrets it now

[CaptainHowdy]

Don't mess with a retired man, time (and impotence) is on his side ...

I think he was trying to get some money out of Fabien for licenses for shit old content he himself said "isn't good enough anymore".

[Just Alex]

I can name a few other but Paul is very close to the top.

[Agent 488]

sad bastard.

[iamtam]

no he is more like the mumbling old guy wandering around your town talking to himself and bitching about how things were back in the day.

[Kiopa_Matt]

I always wonder if he sits in pubs, having a beer, and starts ranting to total strangers about how tube sites wrecked everything.

I don't believe in impotence. that's just an excuse for having old pussy. Just go get yourself some new pussy and you'll pop right back up

[Paul Markham]

Well for a village idiot I did well for myself.

All I say is, giving away content in the quantity and regularity online porn does is losing sales. Anyone disagree with that?

And that today the prices paid for content are abysmal. Leading to shit members areas. Anyone disagree with that?

And that this has all contributed towards a loss of sales, you could of sold so much more. Anyone disagree with that?

Angry about the opportunity you guys missed? Yes and I doubt anyone disagrees with that.

Think of converting 1-100 instead of 1-1,000. With the same traffic.

Sorry guys, earlier on when I said all he says is stop giving away porn and spend more on content he also says how brilliantly rich he is and how well he has done.

My bad.

I suspect most people roughly agree with you Paul, though this thread is suggesting that you started debating it in the wrong place on GFY (easily done)

[96ukssob]

STOP!!!!



Ok, its all good, just a fake alligator

[gideongallery]

a village is to small a community to contain the level of idiocy that paul markham spews

[RRACY]

No poll option...

[TheDoc]

Paul is just stuck in his mind set, he is far an idiot....

[Grapesoda]

seriously... you think we can't see that state off affairs? that we need a failed mediocre shooter in east bum fuck telling us what is going on? IDIOT point number 1.

you think you are the ONLY guy in the world that can see the issues facing adult? that equals IDIOT point number 2.

you think you know what goes on here in porn valley, and continually EXPLAIN to US what we are doing on a daily basis when you have no fucking idea... and I know this because what you are saying just isn't true. IDIOT point number 3.

you spend time raging on GFY about worthless bullshit you can't do a fucking thing about....when you have a lovely wife and child at home you could be spending quality time with... IDIOT point number 4.

[Bladewire]

I agree with TheDoc. Paul is just stuck in a certain funk right now and something will happen for him to see things differently. He's far from an idiot and GFY is far from a village. If GFY were a village I have a feeling this would be it's mascot.

[Sid70]

Lawrence Connor, we miss you!

a corn dog and an Indian girl...! what a hoot! well hopefully pm can move on gracefully to his next big adventure, as all of us would hope to do

[lazycash]

I don't think so, his keen insight into optimal toilet placement for employees within Manwin's headquarters were the most enlightening set of posts in years on gfy.

[Agent 488]

this raises a serious question.

Very good point, Manwin may have got themselves into some hot water with this Twistys acquisition, always check toilet placement before making an offer.

Depends. Cleaned or soiled?

Can't we all just get along?

Does that mean that now that Shap is retired he will be joining Paul Markham?

[TheSquealer]

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.

I guess reminding people that the route they were taking was going to fuck them was going to annoy people. I saw the problems a long time ago. That make it even worse.

Not bad for a village idiot. I saw the future before the brainy ones could.

We I guess a few who couldn't of made it in offline porn aren't angry and even grateful of the way the market went. As for posting about it in every thread. I don't. So you got that wrong as well.

seriously... you think we can't see that state off affairs? that we need a failed mediocre shooter in east bum fuck telling us what is going on? IDIOT point number 1.

Failed mediocre shooters. Who in the years 1999 to 2008 shot 2,000 plus sets that sold non exclusive for more money per set than you'll ever earn.

you think you are the ONLY guy in the world that can see the issues facing adult? that equals IDIOT point number 2.

Well I'm the only one who saw it coming years ago.

you think you know what goes on here in porn valley, and continually EXPLAIN to US what we are doing on a daily basis when you have no fucking idea... and I know this because what you are saying just isn't true. IDIOT point number 3.

What do I say about porn valley that isn't true?

you spend time raging on GFY about worthless bullshit you can't do a fucking thing about....when you have a lovely wife and child at home you could be spending quality time with... IDIOT point number 4.

So you can do something about the problems or got no idea how to fix them?

My wife and daughter are out most of the day. At the moment they're watching Czech TV on the main TV. Will shift them soon into the TV room, so I can watch the English programs.

I do lots of things besides post on GFY. It's just part of my day. Taking the dog for a walk, training him, playing with him, doing my jigsaws, reading books, watching TV. Watching the emails for orders and winding up people like you on GFY.

It's just a small part of my day.

If you think a village idiot achieved this, tell me what that makes you Brian?

Survived 34 years in porn and still earning money.
Made enough to buy our house, sit back and retire.
Sold in about every market in porn.
Mail order, photos and video.
Sold to magazines.
Sold to DVD.
Sold to cable.
Sold from content stores to paysites, affiliates, which still make money.
Sold to mobile phone companies, which still make money.
Opened paysites, which still make money.

Yes I started a long time ago and made the best of the good years, you have to make the best of what's left.

Thanks Squirtit. Not sure what's to see differently. So far no one has come up with anything like a solution to todays problems. My solutions are probably now out of the financial reach of most companies except a couple and one still thinks the more you give away the more people buy is a long term business model.

Well if 10 years is a long term business. They're spot on.

Brian is complaining that far from being the village idiot. I'm more like the town crier pointing out problems.

[ThatOtherGuy - BANNED FOR LIFE]

See...
The industry is not dieing. It's just always changing.
It could be dieing to you and for others its never been better.

Something to think about.

I have absolutely no idea who you are.

The idea that I would even discuss bringing girls from Russia to shoot for you is ludicrous. Why bring in Russians, who don't speak Czech or English, have problems of bringing them in then shooting them for you is crazy. I'm in Czech speak enough Czech to work in a studio, had 3 other Czech shooters.

At the beginning of online porn my content must had been good enough to warrant you flying to sit down and meet me. Or were you only looking for an OK shooter who want $3,000 a set?

I think you're dreaming.

Still no idea who you are. I know of Steamates.

ThatOtherGuy is dead right, the porn industry will never die. It might be slimmed down to a shadow of what it was. Might even just be used to sell advertising space.

Porn will always survive.
