I think rather than be angry that low-skilled individuals can make a disproportionately large amount of money for a small amount of work, they should be grateful that such an opportunity existed for as long as it did

A lot of people are making more money than ever in adult, it's just not the same people and it's not as easy, but remember the time period you are yearning for was pre-facebook, pre-netflix, and pre-iphone. It's a totally different world and that's not Pornhub's fault.

Who's "angry"?

I think that some adult webmasters and creators (myself included) are lamenting the days when more posts had meaningful practical information in them, than not.

It was also the early day "programmers turned pornographers" who messed up the adult billing ecosphere with their scammy credit card rebill tricks.

Evolution and natural selection certainly applies to the adult biz, but just as with nature, some of us miss the "dinosaurs".

It's good to see so many double-decade(ish) players still here though.

^^ what he said

There's barely any other industry where I would have had the chance to make it as far as I did without actual knowledge about what I was doing

But rest assured: after almost 20 years in total I have figured it out.

In retrospect, we were all pretty innovative back then. I'm glad GFY never upgraded away from the good old "forum" style.

I always come back here reminiscing about the good old fun days.

Where did you go after CCBill? Went mainstream corporate?

Yep, went with 100% mainstream. Different animal.

You have to get much more creative marketingwise and have a honed in product, you can't just be clever on a message board day and night, despite how fun that is...

However, less risk on the banking side.
