Lil Candy Cash -Closing-

[SmutHammer]

I would like to apologize to all of our Affiliates. We will be closing down lilcandycash and all of the sites along with it.


All sales went through CcBill so all affiliates will get what they are owed.


I'm Sorry for any work you all have put into our program and wish everyone the best of luck.

[Dankasaur]

Any reason why?

[SmutHammer]

Not any one reason. There are many things that have led to this.

Again I apologize to all of you.

[woj]

why not sell it all?

[SmutHammer]

Conversions were very good. Problems were more in getting enough traffic. Having employee's and many expenses. There just wasn't enough to support it all. At some point you have to cut your losses.

I'm sorry I miss read what you wrote. I'm not interested in selling years of my work for someone else to profit from. I don't know If I will be leaving the adult world forever. And even with closing down, At least I know I still own 100% of my content. Also money was only a small part to do with shutting everything down.

I am saddened to hear about this - I remember the early, classic Lil Candy clips from what today almost seems like another century ago - those clips made the rounds around the wired world, and because they often retained titling and watermarks, I suppose that they were a great marketing tool for you for a long time. I've looked at your site to see it before the plug was pulled and Candy doesn't quite look the same as she did to begin, in those early clips, though she sounds just as nice and sincere. You created a real landmark with Candy and those clips will be creating traffic knocking at your closed door for a long time. All best wishes to you in any of your future projects in this world. JD

Why not sell your sites and content? Hit me up if you want to talk about it...

Thank you for the kind words. One of the problems was her popularity interfering with everyday life outside of the industry. I know this doesn't sound like a big deal but when you live in an area that is not accepting of porn It can be.

[cybermike]

I'm also interested if the price is reasonable

[SmutHammer]

Sorry guys the content and domains are not for sale.

Someday "years from now" The sites may go live again. One of the main reasons for shutting down was her popularity and everything we had to give up because of that.

I read on the site that she's in Kentucky. Trisha Upton has never let that bother her, and it's actually, probably help build her strong character and personality. But it can be corrosive to the life of some of the women in this industry - Cody Lane comes to mind - but I guess it doesn't matter. If your girl is tired of it and whatever difficulties she attributes to this, it's over. She's continued to work this program for far, far longer than most single-girl-site girls do. I'm guessing from what you've hinted that she, herself, wants the stuff down so she has a chance to try a life without that stuff online. The reality though, is that it will never go away. It's going to be a part of her life forever, whether the site is up or down and maybe she's imagining a solution that really doesn't exist.

All best wishes to her and to you.

It goes a lot deeper than that, and though Candy has had trouble in life with things like Neighbors recognizing her, Or her classmates and teacher causing her to drop out of school near graduation. It wasn't her or those things that made me decide to close the doors.

Edit: I shot Candy and Trisha together years ago. Trisha is a solo/girl girl site. Doing hardcore BG is a lot different in the public eye.

You being an XXX lawyer I wouldn't mind telling you the main reasons, But Id rather not put it all on the boards. (There are some things money can't buy)

Reading this again makes it sound really bad. It's nothing like what it sounds. Actually, It's causing problems for me with my kids (school). My children are worth more than any dollar amount. Years from now when they are all adults I may move to Vegas and re-open the program.

Living in a small town, Word gets around quick. We even decided to pack up and move.

[pamon]

Too bad. Hot site.

[2013]

what will lil candy be doing... tell her see sig and become a cam whore

[OneHungLo]

It's best to take great measures to conceal who you are and what you do. People love to talk about this shit . If they find out you're remotely involved in it, they want to know all the details. And when they can't figure it out, they make it up.

[The Porn Nerd]

The best thing you can do is to move, sorry to say.

I would actually just put the sites on hold for 6 months. Move somewhere else, then put the sites up again. I suggest somewhere 'liberal" like Arkansas, Georgia or Alabama.

Oh wait - no, not those places! NORTH - Chicago, Michigan, Ohio.....NY, NJ, Conn.......Cali or Washington State....making money online means you can say "fuck the world" and live wherever the fuck you want to live. Don't let asshole neighbors, family, "friends" etc change what you and she obviously loves doing (and profited from and put years of hard work into).

If it's a problem with the kids then talk to them (if they're old enough to understand) or if not then move and they can make new friends in a nicer place.

Don't give up! Never, ever, ever give up. Life is too short. Good luck!!

Yeah seems the only place safe is Vegas.

My kids don't know anything.

[jscott]

Damn this sucks, to see your sites closing, and SOOOO many others recently too

I heard that. We moved from a small town in the south. Its fucked when the manager of the local electric company makes a crack in line at the piggly wiggly. Good luck in all you do.

I already submitted the paper work for Ccbill to be closed.

I'm guessing the last day will be on the 15th as that is when Elevated X will expire.

[adendreams]

Ed's one of the coolest dudes Ive met in the biz - And candy is a sweet and funny little chick - will be sorry to see them go.

Hope you both the best in your next endeavors

[seeandsee]

[StinkyPink]

I am not Ed, so please stop messaging me about this. I have no information for you. LcProducer is who you want to talk to.

[Rebel D]

Lc Producer Give me a Shout i would love to see if we can do somethign together with this

[Kenny B!]

[SteveHardeman]

Sorry to hear this news. Sign of the times, I guess. Best of luck to all involved.

No, its not, just the morons who are left in it are lazy, whiny, webmasters who suck at what they do

Nothing to do with the times, just the circumstances which he's wishing not to deal with.

[djroof]

Bad news... good luck now!

Only they know their specific situation but I think a lot more sites would be around or still updating if they were making money like it's 2006. Increase your revenue 3 or 4 times over and some of the other issues involved in being in porn start to not be as big of an issue.

[John-ACWM]

Well, good luck with future projects.

Yeah, I still make 5:1 for what I pay for hosting and what not, so to me, its still very profitable, not 10:1 like 2006 but still good.

He is right and found out the news at the same time as everyone else. StinkyPink did a great job at fixing all the messed up things in my program and I would recommend him to any of you. He just didn't have enough time to finish before I decided to pull the plug.

This is exactly correct. Did the business make enough money to stay online, pay it's bills and employee's, Yes It did if properly handled. But that doesn't leave enough money to make it worth dealing with all that comes with it. If I earned enough from the sites to be able to buy a house, move to Vegas and not depend on my 9 to 5 job I would do everything I could to keep going today.


And thank you to everyone. You all are being very kind and understanding. Hopefully someday we will return to this industry.

Candy, can you provide an email address for those who may need to contact you?

lol.. 1600+ posts and you think actual models lurk on GFY?

Made me giggle.

Too bad it's closing.... her earlier years she was super cute.. like Little Lupe cute. She had that look, now today.... not so much after mulling over her stuff... she's gained some weight and just didn't seem too involved when getting rammed - some minor moaning? Gotta have some acting in there if shes not really feeling it - it's entertainment after all - and it's not intended for her - it's intended for us.

Might return as more of a big tits/blowjob type model maybe - she does give a nice blowjob. She should honestly look into doing uniforms/costumes. Was amazed that she never did one schoolgirl/nurse/cheerleader uniform in all her content. Shame... would of definitely had several high traffic spots for her galleries if she did.

That is what her fans loved abut her, How it was more real and not acted out like Hollywood porn. She has been losing the weight she added, and actually been in the gym a lot with a personal trainer. But that all doesn't matter much now...

As for her older appearance we had www.lilcandy18.com We did do one school girl shoot. I'll keep the outfits in mind if I start shooting her or other girls in the future

Yeah I promoted that one too... good small tits, skinny teen site for sure. You've got some awesome sites that will continue to sell five or even ten years from now - you know how it goes.... 18 year olds, we get older but they stay the same age

[freecartoonporn]

best wishes for your future plans.

Hey, Trish - I didn't know that you get to Chicago. If you do, I'd love to see you, too!

You are one of the legends of the age that founded and developed the adult internet. We first met at an AVN Internext when Mike Jones was on trial in McHenry County, Illinois for obscenity - it must have been 2001. You were ready to stand at bat for him, and I've never forgotten that. It seems like yesterday!

JD

[NEW XTC]

2 big lessons to be learned from the Ed/Candy saga:

1 Dont ever stay in a bumfuck state like KY if you want to be in adult.
2 Don't ever let your star model eat McDonalds

[Cameltoepro]

To bad..Sorry to hear this.

Not to often but maybe this summer ;-) I always love to see your smiling face! I will never forget our dinner at Gibsons I believe??mmmmmm how good was that!

[trishauptown]

And so sorry to hear you guys decided to close the site. I really enjoyed shooting with Candy. I know it can be really hard to be in adult when you live in a small town area. People in our area can be simpletons….I don't mind the grief I receive about it I have always been able to laugh it off…..I feel for the grief my family and 6 brothers get. I have to say my dad and bros have always been pretty good at handling it. I kicked a guy in the balls once at a bar for saying something shitty about me to my cousin right in front of me…..after that not to many people ran their mouths lol
