OK that's just dumb on thier part! Socks, you can have your own gawdamn webcam in my studio and come over anytime. YOU OWN A FUCKIN REVIEW SITE!!! This is some of the best traffic available small site/program owners!!! Jez people are stupid!

if some webmaster who wasn't an affiliate or somebody i knew hit me up out of the blue asking for a password for a friend i'd think the guy was a loser.

i like to give passes to affiliates.

you're never on ICQ - need to ask you something

if someone hit me up for a pass, for a 'FRIEND' I would ask for the contact details of the 'Friend...'

Then I would hit them up personally, and ask ONE single, simple, straightforward question...



"Do you like poo?'

If they said yes, not only would the get a years password to my site, but I would also invite them to be a personal guest in my home... But I would ALSO invite them to various 'social' events, around the world, on a regular basis...

Just sayin'...

Alex, you have to realize that most of us would prefer ftv to his first gay cock. We can't all be as gay as you.

I always figured giving passwords was a good way to build trust with potential affiliates, especially if you're a revshare program.

That being said, I thought I won an FTV password in that dice game last weekend?!!? Fucking scissors.

I regard anyone that comes into HGV as someone that has the potential to be a brand ambassador. If one person likes something and tells one or two more... doesn't matter if they are an affiliate, a surfer, a producer, etc., word of mouth is powerful advertising.

By the same token, some people end up converting to paying members when the free part ends.

I think it's okay to give passwords to active affiliates, however it's not a good idea to give password for a "huge fan of the site" if he's not in industry :pimp

FTV, I heart your content. Some of the hottest lesbian content I have ever seen is on your site. One of the reasons I promote the shit out of you! :)

Sent Roald :upsidedow and fuzebox I think you did win some 18 games haha, I got owned for that. Shoot me and email and Ill get ya one.

I like that people call my friend a stranger and cheap or a loser. The friend happens to be a software developer for Google. On that note, My fiance and I took a tour of the Google campus yesterday with him. That place is awesome, if fellow gfy'rs get an invite to go make sure you do. It is an amazing facility.

Very interesting opinions on this password issue. I probably should have just said it was for me and then given it to him. I however thought telling the truth that my buddy is a huge fan was a nice compliment for this program. I am in the industry so I figured I would see if I could hook it up.

Nice to see the poll is leaning to Yes and not to No. Was starting to think I was crazy haha

That's even worse. He has the cash and is so cheap that he has to ask a friend for a pass and can't dish out 30$ for something that "he is a fan of", as to, well you know, support the owner of the site.... Really amazing some people's mind works.

O yea, your poll is biased towards YES, and does not reflect what you mention in this thread.

I love your stuff. Some of the very best stuff on the net. Would love a pass.:thumbsup



I would definitely want a pass to Twistys. I love the high end pics. Thats the bench mark for online stills. Never seen the video though. But I know the Twistys shooters, are really good.

Shit! I pay for my Brazzers.com membership.


I genrally don't like asking for anyones for passes. Being a shooter, I feel that the site owner thinks im going to steal there ideas or copy somthing. But then again, I dont watch porn with my dick in my hand either.




If anyone is giving out free memberships please send them my way. [email protected]

I dont download and I would absolutely never hand it out.:thumbsup

hitting you up :) [email protected]

Am I sensing a thread backfire?

Backfire how? This thread got more people interested in and promoting FTV girls. Looks like a win to me.

Backfire as in everyone wants a free pass now

Pretty sure he can afford it man.

As a former program owner (and soon current again ;) ) I'm kind of at the yes AND no response (although I did vote YES)...

Years back I had NO PROBLEM handing out pass after pass for any "webmaster" that asked for one, I also handed out a few free passes to big fans of my niche so they could get a free look inside and help spread the word about my sites on the mainstream boards.

Somewhere around 2004 - 2005 just like everyone seemed to have a webmaster board, everyone also seemed to have a review site, I gave out prolly close to 100 passes to "review sites" and only saw maybe 10 reviews in the end.

These days it seems that most of the "bigger" programs will only hand over a free pass to affiliates who send X sales (to prove they can sell and are not a surfer looking for free porn I gather) and I've also "seen and heard" from a few programs that they will only give out review pass to "established" review sites.

Myself, getting back into the program side, still have no problems handing out the passes BUT I don't think I'll be as loose as I used to be lol, but as long as i KNOW you are an actual webmaster or an actual review site, have a pass.

Last but not least, check this out lol

I've been in this biz since the 90's and I've PAID for all my passes, Twistys, Nubiles and Bree Olson's old site, that's the 3 site's I've paid for and that's what I got access too, I really never bothered to seek out a "free pass" dunno why really, just never did lol

-Loki-

Oh... I should add, MAYBE one reason some owners would shy away from membership for membership is the fear of having their backends "copied" or "ideas lifted"

Just food for thought.

Hi,

I visited your site and watched the clip, to my surprise there was no " down on the farm " action. Country living and farming kinda go hand in hand... do you have clips of the girls doing naughty things in the barn or hay stack?

To be honest that is what I thought I would see based on the domain and pics on your site and the only reason I clicked your domain/link.

Mike

He's probably not interested in a pass to your site, so it's basically a request for a free pass.
If I received such a request from someone I didn't know well, I would be concerned about the possibility of other motives and would politely decline. If I had a system where I could provide a discount link or cheap trial offer, like a half price offer, I would likely send that.

Tbh - I can understand both sides...
I would propably say it would depend on who requests and how ...

You can send one this way... for promo purposes of course. :winkwink: [email protected].

I'm on today. Haven't been on at all lately :winkwink:

I can understand that. For a lot of people having that membership on their cc bill isn't something they want to do.

Free pass costs site owners very close to zero imo

Sent out passes to those that requested them ;)

Aargh, I missed this thread the other day. I sent you a request and another question, Shap!

This is clearly long term thinking and doesn't belong in the adult industry, dude.

Yes I would trade membership for membership

I just gave Juicy a lifetime pass to my sites (again) and I'm posetive that it is not for business or scientific purposes! :thumbsup

We are all pornographers! Can't we all just get together as a group and admit that we masturbate?

And that we are all cheap ass jerk offs...

OH MAN Juicy will kill your bandwidth. He's one of 5 you don't give a free password to.

Even better is the barter power of porn...

Over the years, trading passwords has provided Osiris shoes, discounted car rentals, high end hockey sticks, and tons of other perks.
