:thumbsup:thumbsup

Interesting news indeed. I doubt there will be any noticable changes around here though, wouldn't make sense to buy it and then change it. It is what it is.

Nice to see it in the hands of a news worthy news organization!

Thanks for the kind words everybody! Both me and Theo are members of the community many years now and will do our best.

We are very excited and nervous at the same time, we met many members of the community in Vegas and a reason we delayed the announcement was that we wanted to talk first in person to as many of you we could, get feedback, opinions and ideas.

We are still fighting with the post-shows arrangements, but will be back in LA tonight and we will be around to answer all questions and hear what you think and how we can help to make step by step things better.

will there be free coffe and donuts in the morning for everyone ?:thumbsup

Just after the show ... interesting ...

I heard it was baddog:thumbsup

Congrats toe da winners. It sounds like a top notch purchase.
:thumbsup

I can neither confirm nor deny my recent acquisition . . . err, I mean, ummm, what?

Should be a good thing.

Crazy. I really wish XBiz bought it but oh well.

how much?

I'll buy it off you and put an ad for goatse under every post

congratulations to avn, big purchase im sure...wonder how much it went for :)

I'm touching myself - right now.

Eric clamped shut the other topic re: Manwin. lol. What more needs to be said?

Congrats Theo and Panos. And great that Eric keeps his hell of a job in the zoo ;)

άντε γαμήσου

congrats! GFY is my favorite forum.

who is manwin and why is that other thread closed?

Oh please.........:1orglaugh

congrats but hope this doesn't turn into a myspace story :( I'm kinda Liking it here.

Sounds like a good change. Congrats

Do you care more about other webmasters than your own business? I don't think anyone runs a porn website as a charity here.

This is like Sega being bought out by Atari.

.. lol ..
By the quantity of Baddog avatars , I think that if he did not buy it, he owns it ....

More like the CEO of Sega dumping his trash in his neighbour's (the CEO of Atari) dumpster.

Oh wow! Nice move AVN!

congrats to the new boss...

::::::Effective Immediately::::::

ALL XBiz Award Nominee's need to remove their banners from GFY.




:winkwink:

Hope this means good things for the industry

Change is good ...

hahahaha!!! you got it Bjorn!

There's rumors of Manwin buying AVN, who just bought GFY? When does the Exodus begin? :1orglaugh

damn your right! i must be losing what little left i have of me brain.:helpme

That avatar kills me man.

Should be interesting to see who skins the board in the coming weeks and months.
.

Congrats AVN! This increases the value of this board.

Who are you kidding? Nothing enhances the value of this board. Especially if Manwi buys AVN, in which case, I can see GFY pretty much dropping dead...

That's cool! Let us see what's next for this board. gofuckyourself AVN ;)

Great news! Congratz! :thumbsup

congrats :glugglug

Eric....My Man....Congratulations.....Do you step in dog shit everyday?.....you know what you must work your ass off to keep the system running like clockwork....people have no idea

It's a lot of fucken work.

You do well...Your good looking. You date women the rest of us mortal sole just wack too. Your the behind the scenes winner.

WOrst of all your a really fucken nice guy and there is not 1 thing to bust on you about. I hate you.

Congrats Howard

I don't expect anybody to run this site as a charity, but I have seen several examples where relationship to advertisers/sponsors seemed more important than ethics and what is in the interest of the general webmasters here.

Wasn't there a Pornhub skin some time back? Reading some of the threads back then it was like a kick in the balls to many people.
I also remember a deletion of a thread involving Video Secrets attempt to steal money from an affiliate. Very convenient for them that it suddenly disappeared...
There have been other examples, it's just a matter of digging up old threads if to they are deleted.

To answer your question. No, of course I care most about own business and I expect everyone does the same. That doesn't mean I don't care about other webmasters.
Fx I don't promote Brazzers, AFF, VS just to name a few. Every time a sponsor is revealed screwing their affiliates or are in other ways bad for business, they end up in my personal shitlist. Beleive it or not but I also care about my surfers and what I try to sell.

About time. :)
Congrats to all involved, 2011 is off to a busy start. :thumbsup

The irony is that as the industry gets hurt by the poor decisions and affiliates are put out of business the value of advertising on this forum becomes worth less and less.

Well... sounds like you are planning to take a lot of sides in issues and I personally think that would be the kiss of death to this board. How do you know if VS is guilty or innocent? I have never heard of a cam company that didn't have models complaining that they were ripped off, shaved, blah, blah, blah. Just because people don't like Pornhub putting up a skin doesn't automatically make them right and Pornhub wrong for seeking to advertise.

Over the years, many boards have lost their lustre or rusted out completely due to new owners trying to impose various personal directives, vendettas, etc. I hope you will allow the same freedoms and not try to take a side on these matters where there is not clear cut case of right or wrong. It is fine to let the mob of people posting debate the matter, take sides, and come up with solutions.

That back and forth give and take is the lifeblood of any good board imo.
