EPMD imexposed.com using banner without permission
 

EPMD of imexposed.com ran a banner contest late last night and I submitted a few entries. It began to become clear that he was fishing for free work and wasn't going to pay anyone, so a couple of people removed their entries and I then followed suit. Unfortunately it looks like he managed to grab at least one of mine before I deleted them because he is using it in his affiliate program already and he never paid or even contacted me for permission. Here is the original thread:

EPMD, please pay up or remove the banner ASAP. I didn't stay up late last night to give you free banners out of the goodness of my heart, I have kids to feed. :mad:

Just thought I'd let you guys know in case anyone was considering doing business with him. Be cautious. :helpme

what a cocksucker

Thats fucked up. The owner of mariahxxx.net did the same thing to me. I hate thieving fucks. need a big blacklist of these assholes and post it for the world to see.

bump for tootie :mad:

what an asshole

maybe someone with an insanely high traffic site should put his site in an iframe that is 1px x 1px so it loads on the bottom of the site every time

i am evil

I was one of the contestant. I also took mine down. Mine didnt make the FREE it seems but still this is bullshit and needs to stop. Besides bringer should of one.:)

Hey, Jace, I used to live in Georgia. And mdcq is from Georgia. We're in a pretty cool club, I guess. :winkwink:

Mmmm. Eat that Bandwidth. Nice! :thumbsup

yeah, i think mcdq is going to be coming to our get togethers starting tomorrow

georgia is a fun little adult webmaster community, we all love to work just as much as we love to party

Hey Tootie this type of thing happens...
but he didn't post what he need to post to make it fair/completely legal...

"All submissions become property of the owner of whateverwebsite.com"

:winkwink:


Charge it to the game...
Just call it a loss...
doubt he will remove your work

the other night he was asking around gfy for a few banners. So I contacted him and offered my services. He basicaly gave me the go ahead, told me how he wanted them then once I proceeded to talk money, he fucking disapeared! it was at that point I knew he was not serious about paying for good work. I think he expected me to work on them, hand them over then chase him for money. it jus doesn't work that way. I prefer money upfront unless I know the person. I do tons of work for sly and he always pays so I dont mind with people liek him. Newbies just won't get my time of day anymore unless they send me a fuckign check or paypal.


EPMD: I suggest you remove these hard working people's banners NOW. I accepted the fact that you wasted my time, but to STEAL from fellow hardworking webmasters is NO ACCEPTABLE. These are very good people you fucked over and reprocutions will happen. Karma is a bitch

FUCK EPMD ASSHOLE PAY UP OR GET YOUR ASS BANNED AND KICKED FOR BEING A FUCKTARD:321GFY

What a fucking idiot! :feels-hot

LOL

I know. I don't expect him to pay or remove the banner, but I do want to warn people to be careful if they are considering doing business with this guy. He seems to have an affiliate program and if he can't even pay for banners I wonder how honest his program could be. :winkwink:

Time to ban his program on my sites.

wouldn't be 100% sure that is his site, i think he was asking newb questions last week like how do i get traffic etc.

Fucking ass. That is bullshit. Hate to see people who are honest and work hard get fucked over like that. I hope you get some money or redemption somehow tootie.

Well, it's either his site or he's part owner of the site or he sold the banner to the real owner, because some of the banners entered are on the site's affiliate program page now. :(

Thats some bullshit thinking...
Pay the lady..

This is the second "shady" business thing I've seen in the last week where the site had this sort of whois info.

typical scum bag - we really need a big shit list with all these assholes on it

another affiliate program to add to the blacklist, all over a few bucks,,,,pretty sad

Ditto. In fact I think we'll have to ban any sponsors/trades/gallery submitters that use the domainsbyproxy service. Just a place for scammers/cheats to hide.

I know what he did I was just saying it seemed like he was a total newb so its possible he got work for that site and sold it to the owner who is unaware, pretty fucked up regardless.

Woa thats Copyright infringement...

Seriously you can reallyput the flex on em and settle out of court or demand that he liscense the banner fromyou.

Its theft...

Oh shit... thanks for the warning.

lol, people cheat for $100 and ruin a reputation of an affiliate program :1orglaugh

I called it last night when i seen his bull shit postings. Now i will send hit 100k a day prozy hits. You were warned last night and now its time to pay the piper:Graucho

Problem is, not everyone that uses the domainsbyproxy service are scumbags...a friend of mine has to use them because his ex (who is a scumbag) would try to use the fact he does work in the adult business against him in a child custody battle and she would make him out to look like a ch*ld pornographer...which he certainly is not...but you know how these custody battles go...so the guy tries to hide the fact that he is in the adult business so that his kid can grow up with him in a decent home rather than with her in her...who doesn't give a damn about the kid...just wants the support money.

I would hate to see innocent people like him pay the price for some idiots like this scumbag who is stealing designers work.

Hi Tootsie!

:Buck: :hi

That's fucked. I hope you get all of the money, or at least get the banner removed.

Speaking of money, could you contact me, please, hon? I think you're owed some by Dennis, are you not?

now have a look here:

he is using american express in a porn site

which is prohibited

I'm gonna have an AMEX employee to take a look at it.

Your friend may be an exception, but in general people that try to stay anonymous or use fake identities have something illegal to hide...if you have a honest business and pay your taxes there is nothing to hide normally. It's 1% innocents and 99% scammers using this service imho.

I use the Domains By Proxy service, too. I use it because #1 I am female and I don't want stalkers coming around bothering me because they think I'll be an easy lay because I work in porn. This happened to a friend of mine who ran a rather popular link list. THREE separate men found her address by WHOIS and started stalking her. One even tried camping in her back yard with a tent! She finally had to move. :(

And #2, I do it because I have kids. I don't want to risk even a small chance that they could be harmed by some psycho. I know that there are still ways to find out where someone lives, but why make it easy? And I can't afford to get and office right now. And now that WHOIS information MUST be correct or you might lose your domain, there really is no other option for me anymore.

This is the same reason I don't shoot content. I grew up around photography, my dad was a hobbyist, and I enjoy it. But I don't want to be a 2257 keeper and have my address all over creation. :(

Morning bump.

:helpme

Bump

LOL, is he the same one that didin't know you can submit galleries via IE, if you seen his posts you wouldv't know he was suspect, just burn his BW i'm sure he have on idea about .htaccess


edit-i use Domains by Proxy for my domain whitepower.org only...

Bump for tootie.

I was going to do business with EPMD today, but after hearing this he can go fuck himself.

Thanks for the heads up tootie.
