How much did Penthouse pay for Various, Inc last year? Wasn't it about $500M then too?

Show us your Tits!

Will they be changing the content? penthouse has been worse than the view of my intestines the past 2 years!

So wait, Penthouse buy's AFF, then makes it their parent company?

I'm confused.

No will do. Show your asshole or go fuck yourself :2 cents:

yep. happens all the time. cingular wireless bought out att wireless and then turned itself into att wireless.

"Hey lets buy out our competition and then rename ourselves as them!"

:Oh crap:Oh crap

Interesting to say the least. :2 cents:

Interesting is also the number of 110.000 affiliates- how many webmasters you know who DON'T have an account with AFF, not meaning they're sending traffic but they're registered.

For example I have an account with AFF back from the times when G$ was with them, although I never sent a hit.

"Participating" is a choice of words in the press release

I always wondered how many unique affiliates can be out there, this might be a little clue to have a better idea about the number.

I think it was about $400 million (cash-and-stocks) deal, yeah.

I'm still honored they chose to name that parent company after me though (even if they made a tiny typo) :winkwink: :thumbsup

:1orglaugh

Yeah, heard about this IPO on CNBC. Good stuff.

"FriendFinder plans to use the proceeds of its IPO primarily to pay off debt, according to the filing."

Wow that is some serious dough. Too bad its going towards debt.

Debt?

Oh shit! Did they have one of those shitty Jupiter/Navisite Hosting Shakedowns too?

lol get over it man

They're basically saying that if they don't pay off the short term debt they could go under. WOW.
