How come AdultFriendFinder only sold for 500M? - GoFuckYourself.com

madawgz · 07-24-2009, 02:46 AM

this is digging up the past but i was wondering if the sale included ALT.com, Cams.com etc...the whole network

i mean they were huge and still are the biggest

in my eyes it should have gone for 2x that

you hold so much power with a network like that, even AFF alone...

commonsense · 07-24-2009, 02:50 AM

Why are you actively posting again? You were outed for running warez sites and other shady shit.

st0ned · 07-24-2009, 02:53 AM

Were they in debt at that time also?

Paul Markham · 07-24-2009, 02:55 AM

Maybe those who bought had access to their books. And realise the way things are heading. Usually people spending that kind of money look into everything.

Pointing out that you're a con artist scumbag? Yup, that's stalking

This douchebag monetizes warez and cp traffic. No one even needs to guess what he's been "busy" working on

let me explain it slowly for you...

if you were to type lalalalala into the search field, that would show on our results as real but we dont have it and also appear in the last searches and gets cached by google

i would never promote or encourage cp so go fuck yourself

the site didnt have anything like that anywhere

AFF had the one of the worst reputation in adult industry.

DaddyHalbucks · 07-24-2009, 01:06 PM

It had huge liabilities, that's why.

fatfoo · 07-24-2009, 01:28 PM

500M , that's a huge amount. When it comes to so much money it's hard to say whether its 600M or 500M or what. It's all a huge amount, isn't it.

bobby666 · 07-24-2009, 01:29 PM

maybe because they never had pics of real girls

I remember that whole deal. People jumping all over themselves saying that site had this, and that, and blah blah. But you could type 9ujlkseoilknls into the search and it would show you downloads for it lol. Just needed some filters added to stop some of the bad false searches.

closer · 07-24-2009, 02:55 PM

I still think 500M is a HUGE amount! considering any site is as popular as it is being promoted ...

For fuck sakes can't half you guy fucking READ?

PENTHOUSE borrowed 500M to purchase Various Inc from Conru than renamed the new company (including the new debt) FriendFinder Networks.

Let me make it easy for you: AFF no debt, Penthouse buys is with 500M of borrowed money, new company 500M debt...

It is in the filing and discussed in every single thread regarding the sale.

I was referring to the new company as well since that's the one doing the IPO. The new company does owe the debt to the former owners.

At the time of sale there was no debt on Various Inc's books, so how could it have a bearing on the sale price?

It was only when the IPO documents were made public by the SEC that their financial status/health was made public. Those are the figures I'm looking at.
