Very sad news, a truly nice guy who was fun and knowledgeable about so many things.

Condolences to his family and friends.

Jason 10-20-2011 08:56 AM
Damn. RIP Dude. Thanks for the positive.

RIP Todd

I remember for many years all the biggest and best sites in the world had work done by webinc at one time or another.

And I remember how passionate he was about giving to the kids for that wishing program back in the day. Cant say enough about him. Really a great guy not just in this GFY community/industry but great guy in the real world. Very sad to hear about the little ones he left behind. As a father myself that is my greatest fear as I'm sure it was his as well.

Its important we set something up for him here. For all that he has done for others its only fitting that now in the end something come back to those he left behind in the worse way.

Again RIP Todd.

RIP Todd- Wow I am so sad.
He and I made friends years ago after a heated war on the boards.
I helped him out with referrals to Web Inc when he first started his biz, and sent him tons of people when Mike Wylde was so backed up.

Todd always sent me a nice little check and a gracious THANK YOU.

He really was a sweetheart of a guy, and while he sure didn't look like one, he was a good Jew.

He always would wish me a Happy New Year this time of the year and to be honest, was wondering where he was this year.


My condolences to his entire family and his friends.

This is hard to read and my sincere condolences go out to his family, friends and web families, who I'm sure are both family and friends.. Although I never met him, he was always very nice and encouraging and supportive even in casual circumstances like board postings and such. When my contract for employment ended, I actually thought of trying to hit up Todd to see if he knew of anyone who is hiring, even though as I said we'd never met. Seeing threads like these is really getting too common and depressing.

LAJ 10-20-2011 12:13 PM
Oh wow... very sad news. I've been out of touch with him forever, but he was one of the first guys welcoming me into the industry back in 2000. RIP

justsexxx 10-20-2011 12:33 PM
Wow sad to hear that.

When my husband died, Todd was my guardian angel.

I met my best friend because Todd sent me to my first industry show.

After I left Webinc, Todd followed my career as if he was my personal cheerleader. He is right there in the thread I made last month about joining Fleshlight. As ever he was bigging me up and going out of his way to make me feel good about myself.

My heart goes out to his wife and his beautiful kids.

I am forever going to miss my mentor.

Thank you Todd.

Do any of you remember when this industry use to do the "Angel Tree" every Christmas where you adopt a kid and buy them Christmas Presents? I think it was Pattycake that headed it up each year. Most of you don't know this, but Todd and I had a deal that two days before Christmas we would adopt every single child that was left and had not been adopted and I would pick them up gifts and he would pay for the exorbitant shipping fees by letting me put it all on his Fedex account so that it would get delivered on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve. Trust me when I tell you that the Fedex bill was just as much, if not more, than the gifts themselves. He never even cared how much, he just wanted to make sure that the kids got the gifts in time for Christmas.

You can search this board all you want and you will never see that he said a word about this to anyone....as far as I know, PC, STK, and I are the only three that ever knew. This was just the type of guy that he was.

RIP, my friend.

Those stories were the epitome of Todd ... really just a genuinely good, caring and sweet guy!

It's just so sad and my heart goes out to his family :(

Definitely great times! Always look fondly back on those trips :)

I think it is hitting me more today than yesterday. We will make the toy drive happen.

Clearly because of the way my employment history reads, your name came up several times in our conversations and I can say without hesitation that he thought very highly of you.

:( RIP mate.

MikeSmoke 10-20-2011 07:15 PM
Wow.
I'm on the road, so I just saw the news.
I'm almost in tears as I write this.
Todd was, without a doubt, one of the few people I knew in this business who I can say, without hesitation, was one of the best human beings that I ever met.

The world is a much sadder place this week.

That's nice to hear, Sarah :)

We definitely always had a mutual respect and high regard for one another. No matter how much time passed between our conversations - it always felt like we picked up where we left off. Now, I sit here realizing that we won't ever again. It's just so crazy to me that he's gone. Makes me seriously think of my own mortality. Arrggghh :Oh crap

RIP Todd! You will always be remembered ... and live on in the hearts of the many people your life touched!

What in the hell. That's 3 I learned about in under a week. I hadn't heard from Dave in awhile so checked in on his Facebook about a week ago, now these two today. :Oh crap

Sabby 10-20-2011 11:00 PM
Todd? OMG.

OK. I admit I think most of this board is a crock of shit... but sometimes you might serge a nerve in me.

I wish I had the chance to meet Todd. He was the one who named me "Sabby" and he SAVED my pussy... lol. I used to order 20 jugs of 1.5 litre jugs of lube at a time. When I had my cam studio with Interclimax.


Sabby

PersianKitty 10-20-2011 11:01 PM
RIP Todd

As many have said, one of the best from over the years. We had many a conversation and he was always a great help.


My condolences to his family.

OMG!!! This news saddens me so bad ... Todd was 'old-school' when it was just 'school' ...



Good Chris from Wild Rose (WRP) passed earlier this year too ...

This year has been very rough ... too many industry legends lost.

RIP Todd

I was actually just about to hit you up on FB. I wondered if you had heard. Believe me, he could not have thought more highly of you.

quiet and ASM are what made me realize just how much I cared about some people in this industry even when, in the case of quiet, I had never met them in person. I feel like a group of us grew up together in this industry. We started young in the trenches and grew as our hobby became an industry.

sigh...all three are people that have touched my life in very real ways.

BJ 10-21-2011 03:59 AM
I had some dealings with Todd, and one of the most things I respected about him is that if his existing clients business over-lapped with a new client, he would turn the opportunity down, no questions.

Alot of people can learn from that. RIP.

Forest 10-21-2011 06:41 AM
www.angelforchristmas.org has been set up and the joomla has been installed. working on the design atm

MikeSmoke 10-21-2011 08:07 AM
Forest, I'm trying to get hold of Pattyecake to see if she can pass along any suggestions or contacts - if anyone else who's been in touch with Pattye recently can also try to get hold of her, thanks in advance.

Like many adult online pioneers, Ostrer began his career with a bulletin board system (BBS), Rose City Online, which he ran from 1990 to 1994. According to a bio on privatelabelresources.com, the BBS ?served millions of adult pictures to a paid membership consumer base and eventually turned into one of the first ISPs in the Portland, Oregon Metropolitan area. ?
Nice start, wonder where he got so many pictures from?

there were adult content providers back in the BBS days who sold CD's of adult images and video clips, ads in the back of computer magazines - GIFFY was a big one.

And there were people harvesting content from where ever they could take it and using it on membership sites.

When did Newsgroups start up?

Or scanning Penthouse and getting sued....

Never met Todd but he always had a kind word for everyone.
