This will be my one reply to this thread. I'll provide the facts and our perspective on the matter and the fine people of GFY can make their own decisions. I think our 17 years in business and stellar reputation with affiliates speaks for itself. Do some digging in the GFY archives and see what you find.

We were implicated in a copyright infringement claim due to the OP using glamour photography of celebs to promote MrSkin.com. To clarify, it wasn’t a DMCA notice, but a straight cease and desist letter from the photographer’s lawyer

On his site, as you can see in the screenshot below, the OP was (and still is) insinuating that we had scanned photographs on our site which we don't. We only post screencaps and clips from film and television.

Once we dug into his account we also found out that he was sending traffic from domains which contained our trademark which is another blatant violation of our terms.

Originally Posted by Sam - Mr. Skin (Post 21083917)

The OP did transfer the domains containing our trademark, obviously hoping to get his account unbanned as has been mentioned in this thread. However, he has failed to remove all infringing content, including on the specific page in question.

Why don't you contact the shooter you infringed, given that Mr. Skin gave you the info? I totally understand a program being concerned about potential pending legal action, so you should really try to clear that up first.

Edit: never mind, just got to page 2.

When will you post the proof of your accusations about me stealing your content btw?....

You are the one being shady - It's fairly obvious to most people here...

Is the banned member asking for proof or ban? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Theo is around - Shall we do this now?....

If you didn't violate your ban you wouldn't be here wasting my time, or Theo's time :2 cents:

Tip: you should adjust your meds

My meds are fine - Thanks for your concern.....

Yes, i did get owned. By fucking thieves.

I hope other people don't make same mistake. Because by their logic (and terms) even using a MrSkin banner to promote their site is grounds for account termination for "trademark infringement". (when it suits them)

And if by site you mean the gallery, i guess it does suck, it been made 10 years ago or so.

You told me it was a DMCA report. Here's a screenshot. (and after numerous requests you never showed me a copy of it.

http://c2n.me/3AXcYfd.png



I didn't insinuate anything. Any webmaster promoting celebrity niche is using celebrity photos from various sources from the internet. Everyone knows this. You didn't have problems with it for years while i was sending traffic your way. And you don't have problems with obviously dubious content on high traffic websites and tubes when you spam them to promote you. I already posted a photo of you soliciting it.



So you are "borrowing" someone else's work/content to promote your website. How is it any different from what i did? Double standard hypocrites.


Of course i was using your "trademarks" to promote YOUR program EXCLUSIVELY. That's the whole point, to make a gallery look similar to the paysite that you promote. What planet are you from?



Again, this only became a problem when i stopped sending you traffic. You didn't give a shit about this for years. And the domains had exclusively MrSkn galleries, which promote only your website. Terminating an account because of that is stupid. You could have just asked to transfer the domain (which we did same day after your requested it).

You aslo gave false hope (hinted) that transferring the domains to you would solve account lock problem. And after i promtly pushed the domains same day you just left me standing with my dick in my hand:

http://c2n.me/3AXdXbT.png



How could I remove all content? I have hundreds of galleries built over the years. I removed the one with the name mentioned. I couldn't remove the other one because i didn't know what it was. I asked you numerous times to send me the copy of DMCA report so that i would know the URL and which content exactly was in violation. Every request got conveniently ignored by you. You weren;t interested in fixing anything, just wanted a reason to can the account and keep the rebills.




I used your promo tools to exclusively promote YOUR FUCKING SITE, FOR YOUR PROFIT.

I removed the only instance of the mentioned celeb name i was able to find the moment i received your first email. You never even mentioned an infringing URL until in this thread. I asked for a copy of DMCA to know better what to look for, so that i could remove it. I cooperated fully and pushed the domains to you the same day. I promty did EVERYTHING to rectify the problem. You just werent interested in rectifying it.


Hopefully people make a good note on your "policies" and how you are able to terminate an account and keep all the money with any made up reason. Nice Terms & Conditions you have to fully protect yourself in any situation and fuck over any affiliate at a drop of a hat.

God damn scumbags :321GFY

I've had him blocked forever but you know he's drunk because like clockwork 9-10pm Eastern time he starts up. Sad

He's obsessed with me.

1. You should be able to remove content on all URLs. You should know what is on every URL of your sites. It is called doing business and being responsible. If you don't know what is on every URL on your sites you should take a little time to go through your server and document this stuff so you do know. Ignorance is not an excuse.

2. You are knowingly using content you don't own and admitting to doing so. That makes you a thief.

1. I have THOUSANDS of galleries from the TGP days. If they don't even tell me the URL, I can't know where the problem is. When someone sends you a DMCA report, one of the requirements is to describe which work is in violation and where it is located. Skin never showed me the complaint (i wonder if it even exists).

2. Skin uses content they dont own. What does that make them?

At least I have contact info for dmca reports on my websites to quickly remove content if someone complains, and i don't pocket other people's money because i'm a greedy asshole.

The difference between what you are doing and what they are doing is simple. It is called Fair Use. You see you are taking content you do not own in order to make money. You haven't changed it in any way or done anything that would alter it from it original format (other than maybe size and compression ratio etc.). Mr. Skin provide commentary and reviews about the movies, the scenes, and the people in them.

Did you pay someone a licensing fee for the pictures?

Unless you answered yes to one of those you are violating the copyright on every one of those pictures.
