Sounds like the list of pass / spot holders was a nightmare to deal with. I know many people who had passes that they paid for 3 months and had free for over 9.

Why is DH on such a rampage lately? I dunno, I'd assume it's because of his wife's hospital ordeal. I've watched gfy for years (since inception) and DH used to seem like a fairly humble, hard working and nice guy. Lately, his posts are all bashing and pimping - look at me and my new leased car and new pricey tv and ski lodge and oh btw I have a real estate empire and blah blah.

StuartD having AaronM post threats for you on your behalf isnt going to fool anyone...you spoke out more against him then he has against you.

this is a very very small industry....Mark can always hire new employees, but both MGK and StuartD have a limited pool of people to get contracts from...think about that.

Also...you all know his wife is in the hospital now and was in critical care...and you choose that moment to go on a full out attack against him?
That to me is the lowest of low.
You think he is in the proper state of mind right now? How would any of you feel if your wife was in the hospital for something, and it was bad enough they are thinking of flying her to toronto? Id take it very personally as im sure he is.




No one is looking good from these threads.
NO ONE.

I'm glad I could give everyone some "watercooler gossip" to chat about this week. As I look back and reflect on these threads I wrote, there is some stuff I wish I didn't write as I do feel they are a bit beneath me. To be honest I am very upset due to my family emergency and my anger and frustration was vented upon 2 former employees. I can't say that they didn't deserve it but I usually prefer to settle things privately and out of the public spectacle.

I don't have it out for StuartD or MGK, I hope they are happy doing whatever they are doing and have continued success in the adult industry (and I do mean that). I won't be banning any programs or using any leverage to make things difficult for them... I hope someday when they have employees they might realize how difficult it is from an employer standpoint when you have people pull this kind of stuff on you. It's no easy to stand there and take it... When you are as passionate about your business as I am about mine you take things very personally.

I won't be posting any picture's of MGK's apartment or pursuing Stuart. If they choose to come after me legally for anything said in the previous posts they have the complete right to do so and they know my address to send the lawyer's documents to.

I'm going to take a break from posting for a while so I can focus on what is really important and that's taking care of my sick wife and family. I'll look forward to raising a few with all our valued advertisers and site owners in a few weeks at Webmaster Access on our Sunset Cruise.

Anyways as they say "that's all folks"

Mark AKA DH

P.S. Thanks to all my friends and business associates for all the well wishes and your support. I do appreciate it!

1. I had no breaks and took only a handful of lunches all year, plus I left after everyone else many times at the end of the day. Heaven forbid that I made a few hundred posts on GFY through out the year. Seemed convenient when you'd ask me who's who, who works for who and other info you didn't know about.

2. "finish our GTS backend system that has been a work in progress for oooooh say 2-3 years now. (don't ask LOL!)" Ever had a programmer step into a very very badly written script and be expected to fix (not redo) parts by the end of the day, rather than give it the time it deserves? It wasn't even done to begin with. I had entire sections missing.
Why not tell people why you authorized the entire company's request to have it completely rewritten in the first place?

2.b Let's use Submit Passes as an example. Anyone have issues with SubmitPasses when GTS took it over?? A show of hands please?
This would be because Mark bought it without checking anything... they had ZERO records. No client list, no list of current purchases... nothing. Infact, MANY people were submitting using passes that they hadn't paid for in over a year. And they bought it, with no idea what was happening. That would be messy enough, but then they say "we bought it on the installment plan so we need to integrate all of the SP info (which there is none) into our current really badly pieced together backend that you took over.... and you have a week!"
So I had 40 hours to piece together a shoddy excel sheet of clients/passes written that day (inventory system), into a scheduling system. It was never built to handle inventory of that nature. But they didn't care. It had to be done by the end of Friday.
How do you think that turned out? Even if it had gone perfect, many people's info got duplicated (SP and GTS clients joined) and like I said, many passes were never legit to begin with!!
And of course, they refused to just continue using the old SP system, or to build a new one. It had to be integrated in 5 days.

3. After my manager left (translation: was fired 2 days before x-mas just to save on the vacation pay), my issues were this:
That's my spine you see that's white.
It's still not healed completely thank you very much. Why? Because I got back to work for GTS sooner than I should have rather than getting all the bed rest I should have. Couple that with another surgery on my face and I was in rough shape.

4. Paid me for the month I was away? Yeah, with 3 sick days, personal days and vacation days. SJ and I had to squeeze every available minute for me to still have some kind of income while I was stuck in bed. If I did go back, I'd have 0 sick days, no vacation or anything else but work ahead of me for the year. But I didn't complain because that's the reality of being out under those circumstances.

5. Did I work from home? Why don't you ask your employees rather than just post an assumption? I worked closely with Matt, SJ and Ken daily. Sometimes even on week-ends. They won't post... they work for you. I would never ask them to. But you could ask them yourself. Infact, ask anyone there how much I worked, on any given day. I dare you.

6. Make up your mind, is it 99% done or do I have to start from scratch? You said both in your post.
The truth was, on my server and my test server, it listed the schedule data perfectly via a join table. On your server, it duplicated the data. It was a mysql issue. Either the host would have to fix that or I would have to go through and change all the queries/lists. Was it my fault? Yes and no. I assumed that if it worked great on 2 servers, it would on yours. My bad. It was hardly a MAJOR issue. Everyone in the office loved the new system. Also, you neglected that all of these demos I gave kept coming with more feature requests.

7. I never said I'd sell it, I said "At least I have a 99% working system that anyone doing sales can use." Where does it say the word "sell" in that sentence? If I don't get paid for my work on my own time, my script is mine. Simple as that.

8. I never looked for work, it looked for me. Mayors Money, Homegrown, ATK and others. That happens when you have a reputation ahead of you. I turned down offers all year.

9. Still don't have a working system? What about this?
[20:12] StuartD: I haven't sent Aaron to do anything, he acts entirely on his own, always has, always will.
And I didn't send you a month's worth of hours. It was only a week and then some of hours... 59 or so? That's the only hours I worked on my own time.
I never wanted to try to get extra money out of you for nothing. I just wanted to finish the project because I know it's important to GTS.
[20:13] DrinkingHard: don' t worry about the project
[20:13] DrinkingHard: we will be ok
Even though I was insisting that I am still going to get it in to you. Granted, I'm in no hurry to use up my free time any more... but I never intended on not delivering, despite constant changes, requests and.. well, server fixes needing to be made.

10. I sent AaronM? I never made a single post on the matter, with a fake nick or otherwise. AaronM was aware of the situation and took it upon himself to express his own opinion. Seriously, if you know AaronM, you know that no one sends him to do anything. He does what he wants.

11. As for your legal being in touch, I wonder what they'd say about a former employer hindering the employment possibilities of a former employee in such a manner as this. Infact, I think I'll find out.

If anyone wants to hear even more, my icq is 5636347.

Usually too busy playing golf to post.

Plus I rarely have anything to contribute...as my answers would be..

1.)Fuck yes , I'd hit it
2.)No , I'm not looking for designers
3.)I do not want to win a new Ipod
4.)I do not give a rats ass about blogs


Nor do I have any sort of sig that I need to position.

Once those answers are posted, its not often I have anything to add.

You can put a mild mannered accountant in a 500hp sports car, and watch him turn into the biggest asshole on the road. It's a way to redefine yourself.

Then you have personnas like me. I'm an asshole online and IRL.
