Crazy how much money Greg made from spamming using dial up and prepaid cards. I used to know the guy who was managing his mailing for him. Such a good life... join a site, download the members area, put a new throwaway front end on it, on a throwaway domain... get set up with the exceedingly cooperative folks at ibill and bam!! a new money printing machine in minutes.

TheSquealer 06-30-2015 12:59 PM

The funniest thing about that kind of thing was when JoeE was arguing that his new celeb site used "public domain" content, so everyone joined his site and jacked the members area to start their own.

Explain the crazy part. I know you have difficulties speaking clear English as its only your first language and to be fair, you're only 55 years old so you haven't had much time to master it, but please try. I'm interested. I, like many others think you're a piece of shit that keeps posting racial bullshit day in and day out for sig views and I am not making the connection to how that makes me "crazy".

Have someone help you with grammar and spelling so its readable, please.

Mr. Squealer, is English your first language? You speak (write) it well.. a tad better than Brassmonkey. You also speak Russian? How many other languages?

Reading his post about why he and I met, it's clear he was another one of those guys who wanted me to drop what I was doing and turn the studio into a webcam studio.

His bullshit about Eva, who by then was the top content producer in the company by then working for such low money and not shooting sets is BS. We never chased the exclusive market. There's more money to be made in other markets. The fact he would hang around with us all day shows who was chasing who.

Does account why I forgot who he was.

Quote:

Many content guys pushed back with answers like "i am not going to shoot for lower rates" etc. Which is fine. Paul and a few others agreed to do them in large packages - like 10 girls at a time. Russian girls could get Visas to CZ, everything there was cheap. I'd just rent a couple apartments for a few months for a few hundred a month in Brno. It was a nice treat for them. I could get all my content. Life would have been nice.
Do the maths about the costs to him and see why it doesn't make sense. Factor in the loss of our top shooter working on his cheap shit instead of more profitable production and see why it doesn't make sense. Eva shot magazine quality sets. He then lies about us being broke if we were broke we would have gone out of business.

Now factor in those girls working as webcam models in my studio and see his profit. Consider them working without a work visa and the risk to us.

He spent so much time with someone so obnoxious, who was chasing who?

He wouldn't fuck off and get the message I had no interest in doing business with him. I turned on the TV and watched the football, he will confirm this.

One of the things that pissed him off was my phone constantly signalling we had made more money from sales on the content store. He confirms this then says we were broke. Took ages for this guy to get the message, he wasn't needed.

I get why people say "i know him and I like him" or "'ve met him and i liked him",... because he wasn't even close to himself at a show. He seemed like a fairly normal, quiet guy.

You were sitting with another Paul. No one at a show will tell you I'm shy and introverted.

Got any pictures to prove we met at a show?

We left and he kept hitting me up to do it.We had no interest in dealing with him. I might have misspoke. What I was trying to say was I was watching this guy who was basically broke taking about how valuable his time was as a professional photographer and that he'd have his wife shoot it. What most don't know is that his wife actually shot a large part of the content he sold. He kept always giving examples "I pay a girl x, I shoot x sets, I sell then x times for x dollars - basically "I am not going to shoot anything for less than $4000 a day or something like that. And I am listening to him and you can plainly see he is broke and makes no money shooting at all. Remember, his business was dead soon after.

I was watching him get excited over a $10.00 sale.... But in the other thread, his defense in the end was "I just wasn't interested in doing business with you and that's why I can't remember you". Our agreement was $2600 per hole, would girls at a time. It wasn't too long after that he was begging for money on this forum.

I don't know his story exactly. I suspect that he got a few content orders in a short period of time and sold a bit online and was able to lease space he had. I think that about that same time, work for him completely dried up and he slowly coasted to a halt. But in his own mind (as he shoes on this forum), he thought he was a world champion photographer deserving $1000.00 plus per hour or something for his time.

The minimum order level on the site was $20. Got a link to where I was begging for money soon after you left? That's a new lie you dreamed up.

Your lies would have some foundation if we went out of business soon after you left.

Do you have any proof of any of this other than we met? Emails, pictures, etc?

I asdked her, my assistant shooters, make up girls, etc. No one remembers you.

Interesting story, how it happened, sparked by the one of the most legendary threads in gfy history!:
https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-pr...porn-days.html

At the time, Paul hadn't shot in a couple years. He got throat cancer and had been bedridden. Fabian of Manwin came into the thread. Eventually he asked what it would take to get Paul back and shoot a scene for Manwin. Everyone was saying there was no way in a million years this shoot would happen. Things like "Paul would never shoot for Manwin" as he was their sworn enemy, "deal with the devil" - etc."Paul will take the money and run, lol" yada yada etc.

But as the thread progressed in became clear that this shoot was actually going to happen! Someone asked Paul to make sure he got good behind the scenes footage, I think as a joke, but it made me think about shooting this as a mini documentary. Kind of crazy-sounding, I know, but I was planning a trip to Europe anyway, and I suppose my 'filmmaker' instinct kicked in, and I was like, I gotta go to Brno and shoot this!
In retrospect, I'm very glad I did it, and look back fondly on the experience!
Would still love to turn it into a longer documentary piece someday by getting Fabian and DamianJ's interviews, but that probably won't happen.

But enough for now about the why's and how's of the documentary, let's get to the documentary itself!:

Watch it with an open-mind, if you would. I edited it objectively: didn't try to make Paul a hero or a villain, just showed what it was really like to be with him for the few days before, during, and after the shoot.

You were there, was Lenka happy to be shot by me, was she keen to get rid of you and Eva for the video section of te shoot, was she very happy about how it went, the video itself confirms how happy she was while doing the video?

The video, outside the shoot, confirms, we're far from broke.

So far Squealer can only prove we met and he was on the shoot with us and I had no intention of being nice to him, but can be nice on many occasions.

I assumed if that's what I did I wanted to get rid of him. Standard practice for me to get rid of people turn on the TV.

There are some big changes and glaring mistakes he's made in his second bunch of lies. Can you spot them?

In the original thread where Squealer detailed his trip to meet you, you initially denied ever meeting him and the details of his story. After he continued to chronicle details of your house, phone calls and the photo shoot, it was obvious he was telling the truth and you had to recant. With your poor recollection, its difficult to believe anything you say Paul as you've proven to have a very poor memory.

Squealer made some glaring mistakes in his lies about why he wanted to come to Czech. He was lying and abusing me, then repeated it while I was away.

Has he found traffic buying unprofitable and left the business?

I'm waiting for him to return so I can ask why he lied.

Paul will think of some babble to mask this observation as being incorrect.

Over the years I got the impression Squealer was miserable over his inability to accomplish anything more than just being an upload monkey in the industry. Coming in here every few months to rag on someone struggling seemed like a masochistic way of punishing himself for his own lack of forward progress or innovation.

Most of his final posts spent trolling Brassmonkey were like watching a supposedly experienced lifeguard floundering before going under in the deep end of a public pool.

I felt the same. About him being miserable that is. It seemed he had a mission to be hard and bitter on people he felt he could dump on in this forum.

About Paul and him, I have no idea who's story is true and don't really care. But I'm commenting as it's the first time someone has pointed this out about Squealer and it is something that resonated with me.

Perhaps Squealer's absence is indicative of him finally doing something more productive with his free time.

Or maybe he's just found another forum full of people to call broke ass losers looking for a free handout now that it's been repeatedly pointed out here that his "adaptation" has been nothing more than subsidizing himself with ill gotten tube traffic gleaned by bigger parasites.

It was becoming clear that my partnership was going to fall apart. For example, when Visa lowered chargebacks from 2% to 1%, this literally wiped out a lot of cams, dating and adult sites. With competition increasing and transaction volumes decreasing, CBs spiked for many at the very worst time. My partners attitude was basically "well, who cares, we can always find something else to do". I started to panic and I started developing and testing stuff on my own. I built a whole new cam system and this time, I built a very slick solo model system - each model i chose, having her own site, her own content, her own members and having the opportunity to really make a great deal more money if she wanted to work. I made a test site around one girl. It looked like a solo girl site, really selling the personality, except it was focused on her being live. When she was on cam, that was displayed on the main page, when she wasn't, her "girlfriends" were. The sites required an email join, i started buying ppc traffic to them wiht my partner which was doing 1:5... and converting to paid members at about 1:20. The numbers were crazy. We were excited. We had a lot of money and wanted to create them 10 at a time.
So his partnership was breaking apart and he was going to start again? Anyone know this site?

Quote:

I began to play with hiring photographers in St Petersburg to shoot content. It went horribly. There were a few amazing photographers who were known and either ran their own sites or shot for big names (club seventeen etc) and charged western prices.
Club Seventeen were bad payers. Most of the magazines steered clear of Russians producers. They questioned the validity of IDs.

I could get all my content. Life would have been nice.
Who closed their businesses in 2004 when we were all meant to be doing so hard up? He saw the studio, the staff, he must know that costs money. We had the same studio and staff until we closed because of Eva's accident and my fight with cancer. He met us 5th May 2004. $ years before we closed due to health reasons. Anyone else know of Brno apartments that go for a few hundred a month?

The Czech immigration services are very wary of single Russian girls, 16 to 30, coming into Czech. Because? They get involved in porn.

Quote:

I reached out to a few Czech guys and other producers
He was talking to other producers, he couldn't name them.

Quote:

I flew there with a manager of mine who would be dealing with him directly after we started biz. We drove from Prague to Brno, met him and he suggested we go to a sort of Euro Hypermarket type shopping place and sit and have coffee and talk. From the moment we sat down, it felt like he was someone that had just escaped from the local insane asylum, was off his meds and was posing as a business person.
Quote:

We were both mortified and extremely embarrassed. It's not like almost no one speaks English and couldn't understand him. We had to make excuses and get out of there, agreeing to meet later. Anyway, long story short, it went from bad to worse.
Quote:

Paul and I agreed to a price per package. Something like $2500.00 each. What he said specifically was that Eva would shoot, not him (because he was too amazing and too expensive).
After he had found out I was so obnoxious, he still wanted his girls to come over and work in my studio and do business with me.

Who goes to dinner under these circumstances and who does business with person like they described?

Quote:

*NOTE: In one thread on this forum, i actually got him to admit that a good month for him was 5k USD.
Can he point us to the thread?

Quote:

I described a lot here. This thread is kind of funny.
is Paul Markam the village idiot?

Dinner was kinda awkward. Though i am a bit dickish here, i am super cordial and polite and well mannered. I don't really fuck around in other peoples homes. I respected the fact that he invited me to his home with his wife and child to have dinner and wouldn't do anything to make that weird.

Basically, we got to his house, already our heads are spinning with one "what the fuck" experience after another with him. I mean seriously, it would have been less awkward taking that String Emil guy to Catholic Mass with the Pope than spending an afternoon in public with Paul talking about how awesome he is at the top of his voice, only pausing to leer at a girl walking by and saying how he'd love to rub his face in her crotch at the top of his lungs.

By the time we were at his house, we were already wanting get back to Prague, have a little fun and move on. We just wanted to be polite and get it over with.
I think he was there begging me to turn my studio into a webcam studio. Because he couldn't afford to and the "partnership" wasn't dissolving. He was an employee thinking too big or getting kicked out. He never had a studio he could claim he owned, never posted a link, never showed who did the work and goes on and on about me being an asshole, nearly broke and till hangs around and says he agrees on a price with us. The biggest BS is his $2500. The studio and staff were costing a lot more than $2500. He says he saw both. https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-pr...+village+idiot

He won't come back because he can't prove he's anything. Not even that he bought traffic.

I suspect he failed to make it in online porn and was just bragging about himself.

Honest tube owners draw traffic in with content they have permission or rights to distribute.

Big parasites draw traffic in with content they don't have permission or rights to distribute.

Little parasites help a big parasite thrive and vice versa, providing one another with traffic neither earned through any form of self sacrifice.

Allow me to summarize this thread and that thread.

Everyone in this industry knows who Paul Markham is and what he has accomplished.

Squealer was impressed enough with Paul Markham to seek him out and do business. Their day long encounter leaves Squealer with the impression that Paul Markham is a lunatic. Paul Markham continued to leave an impression on Squealer to such a degree that Squealer was compelled to repeatedly impress upon everyone else that he has proof that he did indeed meet Paul Markham and that Paul Markham is someone no one should be impressed by.

Acknowledging said proof, Paul Markham has continued to clearly demonstrate that he has little recollection as to who Squealer is.

Once again, everyone in this industry knows who Paul Markham is and what he has accomplished.

The Squealer's claim to fame?

He has proof that he met Paul Markham.

The End
