As long as you're voting, you might as well plug who you are and what you do... unless of course you have reasons to stay anonymous

Besides.. it'll keep the thread bumped & the stats rolling in.

This is obviously not going to be a "DVD player" thread, but I'm real curious about the stats.

I'm always there to cut a deal or two

I can also shoot custom exclusive content and reality content.

Hum.

Well, that's pretty much how I figured it would be....

A ton of service providers offerings goods & services to the handful of paysite operators that are left in the Visa regulation/registration aftermarth.

Problem is I think a high percentage of the paysite operators in the 1-5 group could probably get better, stable, guaranteed wages building burritos on the night shift than working in adult. That's just my opinion though.. it's probably not really true.


Of course the stats in this poll represent a small snapshot of just GFY #'s. There is probably a much higher ratio of service provider to Paysite operator here, as most medium to large paysite operators are probably too busy steadliy working without distractions & stacking cash, instead of posting here daily or participating in industry demographic polls like this one.

Anyway I got some valueable information from this poll, hope you did too.

Thanks for participating!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled entertainment
