I assure you now, i am only affiliated with Hustler and Platinum, and I will remove all links because of this.

I wont be shit on by a company who is settling with acacia, and turning over my personal info to them.

And I surely will not push such a company.

you guys better rethink shit if this is how its going down.

The only company I'm affiliated with on that list is MATRIX CONTENT! Now that you bring it up... interesting

No way.

Ive had a PO box since before I started in this business and have used that address for ALL my site whois, the ONLY place they got my addy was a sponsors database.

And due to 'whom' it was addressed, it even dates it to a very old account, which would be again pin pointing a very small number of programs (2) so it could be them.

Other than that, there is no place else.

Fletch XXX,

I ASSURE YOU that they are not getting ANY information from Hustler. We (WebQuest) maintain all of Hustler's affiliate information so I can personally gaurantee you that information is NOT being provided to Acacia by Hustler.

Hustler settled for it's own business reasons, but Hustler will NEVER assist Acacia in going after other companies in our industry.

I have a history and reputation of integrity and honesty in this business. You have my word that Hustler is not the culprit here.

It wont be long before Acacia comes after spammers cause we send out links to websites that may provide video.

Personaly, my plan is that if they ever send me one of those letters, I will let them sue me, and beat it cause I have video nowhere, and then counter sue.

Ok guys.

I GUARANTEE you that affiliate programs lists have been used by Acacia to send out packets.

I will give you an example from here in Australia. Months ago a guy came to my house with an Acacia packet. The packet was not addressed by his name, but his affiliate account name, which was somewhat obscene and he was embarrassed because he knows the people at the post office and didn't want his adult business known, and now it was out.

Yes the packet was not addressed to him, his affiliate name.

BradShaw · 10-22-2003, 03:28 PM

Anyone turning over info should be boycotted. I can not blame people for giving into Acacia on a business level, but turning over affiliate info is inexcusable.

Brad if someone is actually doing this to purposely hurt other companies they should be shot not just boycotted.

Platinum Bucks would never ever do such a thing.

I am shocked and apauled that this could actually be happening.

You should probably get your facts straight before implying that all the companies on that list have done anything wrong and asking people to boycott them.

Fletch XXX and Hooper have both stated that they have PROVEN that it was NOT Hustler or Platinum Bucks and we run Vivid's affiliate program as well, so it wasn't them.

I have no idea if a sponsor sold affiliates out, but if they did, I agree with Platinum Dave....they should be shot.

Fletch XXX · 10-22-2003, 08:18 PM

After Ken reminded me that 'Webquest' ran Flynts sites, it couldnt be them. And Platinum didnt match up in the end either, again clearly why its not fast to jump to a conclusion.For that I apologize to both Hustler and Platinum.

It sucks the way they are USING Larry Flynts name to persue this the way they are.

Really not cool, and I understand its beyond your control but they really are using a very select few names to try and prove that you should pay them.

ANY letter that carries names like LFP, CE Cash, PLatinum, Matrix TCG is pretty big in my opinion.

And to see them using your names (regardless of the business choice of paying them) sucks to be honest.

Fletch XXX,

Thanks for the apology man. I appreciate it. I know this whole thing has everyone pissed off and frustrated.

I also wish they would not use our name in their letters. It totally sucks. If I could stop that from happening, I would in a heart beat. VERY frustrating......

Ken, with all due respect, it seems something could have been done about them using your name. They don't list every licensee signed.. only you and a few others. Seems like others negotiated to remain anonymous...

or in 3rd Quarter conference calls... parading Hustlers name before the stockholders meeting.

Their CEO was very quick to point out that known companies names could be used in their PR, etc... but with other lesser known companies, the confidentiality of the deal was kept silent.

So Hustler's popularity in mainstream is the reason why they can use Hustler's name, while the other companies aren't listed.

Really don?t like that a sponsor sold their affiliate list. However receiving a letter not documenting anything really doesn?t matter. If your address is wrong, two certified letters come your way another story.

Members of this bb, trying to gain creditability or post counts should be ashamed. Post the sponsor and take the heat but please no excuses.

I don?t think sponsors have to defend themselves on a public bb. Just my opinion and if the TOS changed from a sponsor, it is their responsibility to inform the affiliate.

Parading the Hustler name in front for more money.

You think Acacia cares about whatever fees Hustler paid? Hell no, they consider it a privilege to be able to use a name like Flynts to increase their dissipating validity.

The tactic of getting the affiliate list might have been an early one that was used, when they didn't understand how affiliate programs worked.

Whoever settled early might have buckled under their legal threats to sue them, to give up the list (and probably kicking and screaming the whole time as they handed it over).

Then, I think Acacia got educated by another licensee and Acacia realized that if the sponsor was going to settle, then it wouldn't make sense to go after affiliates.

So I believe that was what happened given early information from Acacia to how things have played out.

So that early list made it's way to the paralegals who just slapped the address label on to their "last notice" and just mailed it.

Another thing, they dont just say 'LFP Inc' or 'Platinum eMedia' they make sure to enclose the details of who you are ;)

LFP Inc (The owner of the Hustler Sites)
Platinum eMedia Inc (owner of the Platinum affiliate program)

its not hard to see why ;)

The package is from: Madox (6 Pounds*).."

no idea what it is.. could it be acacia papers? does Madox make sense to anyone?

In some ways, Acacia knows what its doing.. they already proved how their tactics can work in the V-chip patent.

They understand the value of using a big well-known name to further their efforts.. they know they can use that name in their communications because the company is very visible to the public.

They have calculated all of this, spent more time on executing their plan than researching the validity of their patents.

Look at V-Chip and Berman's comments on D$ Show...someone asked about the V-Chip patent being invalidated, and he gave some smug remark that they had made over $27M on licenses, and didn't consider it to be a failure.

And then today, they announced on their 3Q call, that they want companies who have patents to loan them to them, that they would use their "resources" to get license money and share the bounty with other companies.

Like inventing this Patent-2-Business (P2B) model.

I am sure that Hustler didn't realize the full consequences of their signing, in thinking that it would end their liability... because as you can tell by Ken's posts, I think they understand now, how they have been presented as a trophy win in their favor.

However receiving a letter not documenting anything really doesn?t matter. If your address is wrong, two certified letters come your way another story. Members of this bb, trying to gain creditability or post counts should be ashamed. Post the sponsor and take the heat but please no excuses. I don?t think sponsors have to defend themselves on a public bb. Just my opinion and if the TOS changed from a sponsor, it is their responsibility to inform the affiliate.
