OMFG!! Stick with US/UK programmers
 

So I have this brainwave to employ some cheap ass programmers.. opted for Egypt.. why not hey, they use the dollar and they pretty fucking poor.. sounds good so far.

So now here I am.. stuck in a messenger conversation right now with my programmer.. who now wants ftp access to the site in order to test the php scripts...

I just had to confess to him that the site is porn.. i'd kinda hoped that he could build the engine without ever knowing...

So after a few shy smileys I gave him the url...


LMFAO!!


Dude almost had a heart attack...

"Its against my religion"
"Well WTF buddy I just paid ya sorry ass"
"But I cannot accept payments for work related to porn"
"Sure you can"
"No, I really can't"
"Er.. ok.. so like is there any way around this?"
"Not really"
"Ok, well its not really for porn, I just wanted a template.. something that I can use for other sites in the future.. yknow like non-porn ones"
"Really? Do you promise"
"Yes"

And thats where we are right now.. its gone a bit quiet on the messenger front.. i dont really know what the outcome is..

But summary.. stick to fucking normal US/UK peeps.. :)

Many Indian programmers have no reservations about dealing with adult sites. Try http://www.scriptlance.com and related sites. Good pricing for scripts/mods/ etc. Not so good for bots and other desktop app dev.

LOL:D or tell that it is for a porn site in front

nice disclosure.

Porn is ILLEGAL in many muslim countries.

Asside from legal reasons, some people just do not want to work with adult material.

fuck em dude they're cheap :Graucho

Anyways.. no shit, he's doing it regardless.. after i 'promised him' I would only use it as a template and that it wasnt specifically for porn

which is obviously *sniff sniff* BULLSHIT!! HAHAHAHAHA!!


Fuckers dont even get PayPal, I had to use some real fucking pathetic service.

Anyways, shit I just saved a buck or two... dunno how many Karma points it cost me.. :321GFY

How much did the guy charge you?

I like offshore too, they're cheap :Graucho

Traitor! :1orglaugh

Now Republicans are Anti-Globalization and Keynesian tee hee.

Lesson learnt: Don't hide specifications from your programmers. They're here to help you, not so you can hide from them.
