No wonder I'm an outcast...they wanted to do a full anal probe on me instead of an eye scan. :(

Theo 12-15-2015 04:55 PM

They definitely have developed some weird niches over there

mikesouth 12-15-2015 05:02 PM

Congrats on the third post in 12 years! :thumbsup

:winkwink:

See I don't get this maybe English isn't your first language or maybe I wasn't clear when I said "What it is aint exactly clear" I made it pretty clear that Rios replaced Theo that's about the extent of it, I even asked for those who may know something to tell me. that's a long shot from "deep info"....

Happy holidays to you Mike as well. I think this time you came on this a bit late, but I understand after seen your holiday photos :)

Tony has been working with me from our office since beginning of April. He is a new business partner of us and in August he was appointed as CEO which was the goal from the start. I introduced him to several people back in April during The Phoenix Forum, during summer to the clients in LA, in September during our WebmasterAccess event in Amsterdam, did the same at the European Summit, during AVN Halloween in Vegas and finally during the AVN Awards nominations. This is 6 different occasions and of course we'll do the same next month during the AVN grand week!

Tony has been in the industry since middle 90s, he is a successful entrepreneur and an incredible executive with a wide set of business skills. He shares a great vision for AVN like we do and we have been very thrilled working with him. Obviously we need to finally get him start posting here and resurrect his 2002 or so GFY nickname.

Robbie, we missed you during Halloween, I'm not going anywhere. I still work with our team and our clients on daily basis. With Tony on board you should anticipate only impressive things.

I'll skip to comment on the MindGeek comment cause its been getting old.

And herein lies one of my concerns, if this is such a great thing why wasn't it publicized? Until this thread it's clear an awful lot of people knew nothing about it....I would think that it at least warrants a press release or a cover story at AVN...

Sorry I should have went in to more detail. I was talking about other topics when I said that.
I don't think there is much to the story. I guess you feel different and of course you know more than I do. I have no doubt there. Just saying I think you are making it a story when there isn't one. At least not as big as you make it sound.
Just my guess though

Why? ...

OneHungLo 12-15-2015 07:44 PM

Was there ever a story on how Theo rose from an affiliate rep at DieselCash to owning AVN? That's an impressive feat.

Wish he'd go back, I've been waiting on them for like 6-7 months to send me an e-mail that says "looks good, go ahead!"

Kinda frustrating.

Both AVN and XBIZ offices have a red phone each. It's a dedicated, encrypted phone line with a fingerprint that dials a 3rd encrypted one located at the MindGeek headquarters in Montreal. At the end of each working day me and Alec call to give a full report about the industry. While we do that we have to keep our fingers on the phone cause aside unlocking it..it acts as a polygraph.

We were "recruited" in a remote location we never managed to identify. We basically woke up and found ourselves there. We were warned not to try and hide anything otherwise extremely bad things will happen to us. Alec swears he recognized Fabian's voice, but I was too dizzy to tell. This fucker drugged us for good!

btw, did I ever mention I've never been to Canada? At least to my knowledge :)

This thread baffles me. I knew about Tony joining AVN well before the summer and there had never been any mention of Theo leaving. I did hear about Dan Miller returning to AVN and also the addition of Tina from XBiz.

If you're paying attention, you'll notice that many have moved from one to the other over the years. Not such a big deal.

I like the red telephone, though. :)

Damn, so Mindgeek now not only secretly owns Streamate but now also XBIZ and AVN?

Well done on the reporting Mike.

Vendzilla 12-16-2015 01:07 PM

LOL, have to admit, most interesting thread in a while

Theo 12-16-2015 01:43 PM

The answer is very simple, it's actually mind blowing why it's not obvious to you. We avoided the silly "the sky is falling" you often hear or read in the adult entertainment industry when there's a change like that. Companies do changes all day the time, it's only in our industry a sign of an upcoming catastrophic event. Real world: Tim Cook replaces Steve Jobs, next day stock goes up. In our little world is OMG what will happen now over at AVN!

For several months in row I introduced Tony to our clients, partners, merchants, service providers etc and he has been working closely and very successfully with them for a while now. If we ever go public, we'll make sure to let the rest of the world know about it and comply with the SEC regulations.

Theo 12-16-2015 01:47 PM
