...don't ya just love capitalism $$$ :thumbsup

hehe, im sure we could find a way or two for her to make some cash :upsidedow

Ask him if he's heard of criminal blackmail charges and civil lawsuits for slander and deliberate and negligent cause of emotional stress... etc...

:1orglaugh When I worked in the fragrance industry I once had a friend that worked in a bank ask me to get her free Giorgio. I asked her to get me free money.

Fuck these lazy people that want to be shown. You can't show someone how to do it right in a few sessions, it's a study that takes time. I had never touched a computer in my life until mid-2002. Using adult and all it's freebies (tutorials, servers, content, etc.) is how I learned computers. It was a hobby at first but progressed till I was making as much as I was at my day job. At that point I quit my job and persued adult full time, continuing to learn everyday.

If you don't have the computer skills to learn it yourself, you can't do it.
Like someone else said, if they're even asking they ain't cut out for it.

I get the same shit from my wifes family all the time. Show us how you make money on your computer, or ... Hey can you set me up in business for myself, or teach me what you do..its very annoying.

Not every race car driver can fix their car when it breaks down. Computers are no different.

You are going to have to get your son a hooker now, cuz he aint gettin any for at least a month.

Cock Blocker.

Yep, I get the same shit also... Your almost better of saying you do something else. Give em a different biz, when they ask

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

I'm careful about telling my friends what I do. Even though I'm in an office everyday some think I just look at porn all day long.

post pics of your sons gf

I remember my father asking me, in all sincerity : Son, you could teach me how to use that internet-do-hickey? I figure that if I can manage 2-3 hours a day, I could become one of them "Gurus" in a few months.


For the love of all things natural, I love my father, but I couldn't help myself from busting out in laughter. I showed him how to open Explorer and type in Google.

The next day he came in my room and asked me : Could you remind me what icon connects me to the internet?



I told him to give up there lol. Some older generations just aren't fit for the computer age

Another funny coincidence is : when I used to work in mainstream TV and film, and people would ask me what I did for a living, they'd always answer : Oh, so you make little movies... how cute... is it porn?


Now I can finally answer "Yup, I do porn. Is your wife camera shy?"

So true, I love using that line on people. Esp if they are in a 'profession' of sorts, it's a great conversation ender.

But seriously, I do have something that 'housewives' can do to make the blingy bling that isn't in this industry. It costs some cash to invest, but damm I bet I can annoy them a bit unless they're serious.



PS: I'm feeling your story too Anthony. I actually went so far as to EMPLOYEE a friend while training, had him building me sites, showed him who, what, where to do, exact map so to speak and that slacker STILL wasted both our time and my money.


Never again. Not in this biz, in another one sure, there are other setups to get people to make you money that make more sense, but at least charge a decent UPFRONT FEE for your time, give them the map, a bit of direction and encouragement and if they don't follow through, cyyyaa. Next.


:pimp

I just tell people who ask that I'm unemployed. If they continue to inquire as to how I can afford my luxuries I just tell them that I'm often in the right place at the right time, if you know what I mean. This confuses the hell out of them, as even I don't know what that really means, but they shut up.

i was just any dumby househusband with no job skills when i started :(

Just say, "I sale big sausage pizza on the internets"

i show them some html code and tell them they need to learn it.

end of story...

i tried helping some family and friends but their to fuckin' stupid to understand.

Tons of people asked me too ... I tried couple times ... Only 2 so far were succesfull at TRYING to learn ... one of them is making good money, the other one is on a good way ;)

Tell them you work for a top secret government agency :D monitoring illegal internet activity.

Then tell him you need to know his email address. That should shut him up. :winkwink:

It kinda reminded me of myself when I was 16 and got a car. I didn't give a fuck about it and ragged on it. First car I actually bought, different story. I didn't have mom and dad to help pay for a new transsmission I dropped out the car, and actually took care of it.

It was all handed to him, all he needed to bring was the right attitude.

:(

Good thread ;-)

At a family reunion someone asked my dad.....what does your boy do now....he said "he dont do nothing but play on his computer all the time"

rrrred...he just wanted some fre porn

That line tells me a few things:

First of all, he is jealous of your wealth because he is trying to insult your occupation.

Secondly, he is trying to intentionally insult you to make himself feel better.

Next time, if there is a next time, he comes over tell him to go fuck himself and teach her his damn self.

Asshole insulting you in your home? fuck em

...and while you're at it could you clean her house for her too? :1orglaugh

Btw, I see alot of you mentionning you just give 'em links to free tutorials etc.

Send 'em over here, I've been thinking of getting into webmastering while my editing slows down or I'm rendering.

I like reading :)




Spam away!

happens to all of us i'm sure
it isnt hard to deal with

If they know it is porn - point them to any resource site

if they know it is internet junk
just say you make search engines pages
make it sound complicated so they get all frazzled


I have never had anyone push more than once

It took my wife about a year to realize that when I am on the computer
I am normally working and not just looking at penis enlargment related information
lol

100% agreed

my dad wanted me to show him at one time too. he even bought a bunch of asian content but when it came time to make the sites he just couldn't write the explicit descriptions and shit, he didn't like doing it i guess so that was that.

im gonna have to use the charge for lessons line. next time someone wants me to teach them something i will teach them for $150 an hour with no guranteed results.

Fuck man.. I get this all the time as well..

Unreal.. I hate it..

They think I dont do anything and lounge and lesiure all day and get paid..

Well actually thats exactly what I do..

But shit, this cant be taught.. You are born with it..

I get this all the time.. I really hate it.

haha i get friends asking me to show them, then i ask them if they know html, can program, or can do graphics, and the response is always 'no', like what the fuck do they think i do to make sites?

I think that the big problem is understanding. A lot of regular people who occasionally sign up to a site and surf the TGP's don't understand what it takes to work in online porn. A lot of people think that it's easy to work in porn and fail for the same reasons they would fail starting any other business.

It seems a lot of people think that working in porn is immoral or somehow demeaning. This makes people who have been successful in online porn apprehensive and sometimes even lie about what they do.

I think that both of these things contribute to a general misunderstanding of what online porn is and how it generates revenue. If we were all comfortable enough to explain what we did and people outside of the industry were comfortable enough to listen, situations like RRRed's wouldn't exist.

Wouldn't it be nice to say at a community Christmas party, "I help run a large paysite. We process millions of transactions every year." If the person listening actually understood the time, money, and business skills involved in running something like that, they would have a great deal of respect for you.

When you point someone to a tutorial site and their response is "but can't you just show me?" they have already indicated they don't want to work for it. Fuck them.

LOL

just 30 mins ago a classmate of mine called and wanted me to teach him what i do...he is willing to learn and work hard ! lol

now i am thinking.......

Yep they change their mind quickly when I tell people this... Iant no free ride biatches!

Well, now give me a break guys.. Working online is a piece of cake compared to the real world.

I honestly tell people the truth... people pay me to generate traffic to their websites. I tell them that dating sites are my most popular clients. My mom is my accountant (she use to run her own software business and is now a financial consultant). BUT people also know I run a small record label here in Dallas. If you think people bug you in this industry for help, you should try music. Musicians are the poorest people on the planet.
