there are also programs that support people signing up for 1 dollar and teaching them how to cancel right away to get access to all this free torrent shit. the program basically owns the torrent site.

the sponsor is in on it if you know what i mean. they get the CC so they can bang it however they can in the future and give the surfers access to everyone elses shit for a buck.



i'll get to them later.

I do, without a doubt. I know Brad and I know he has been ripped off by almost everyone he's done business with, and you're the only one to buy him a $1,200 camera, so I think he would continue to work with you after you stole from him. It's not like he is raking in the money after all it wasn't that long ago that he was living at home with his mother cuz he had no money. He's a nice guy, but let's face it, he's not the brightest bulb on the tree when it comes to business.

Personally, I think he would still do business with 'sticky fingers' since he makes more catching one who steals from him than selling his content. What are you going to buy him the next time you need to pay your bills on time or pocket the money and get caught? A prosumer video camera :Oh crap

Anyone realize how simple it is to compete with Fleshlight?
I know 4 different plastics vendors in China that would tool it up for under $500 and sell them for a couple of dollars each. Shipping adds about 15% to the cost.

Anyone on this board could be in that business with inventory in 10-12 weeks.
Google has listings of hundreds of competent Asian manufacturers.

- You don't write into your TOS that you won't deal with torrent sites, of which MAYBE 2% respect copyright laws
- You claim there is a "right way" to get this traffic, but don't explain
- You claim your company takes efforts to stop (errrr, read: make more profitable) this kind of thing, but won't talk about what those steps might be
- You prefer to talk to BoyAlley than talk about the issues at hand

You're clearly fuckin the dog on this one. It's plain to see you feel you have more to gain from torrent sites than you have to lose from this mismatch community of affiliates here. Of this, you're almost certainly correct.

How many people pulled their Fleshlight ads after reading this thread? My guess is 0.

Wow, says the guy that owns warez sites. There sure are a lot of hypocrites in this thread. I can name at least ten people that have posted here off the top of my head that own warez, torrent , or sites that give away content by rapidshare, depositfiles, megaupload. Amazing, if people only knew how many of you in this thread were talking out both sides of your mouths.

A dating description without a way to contact the person is extremely useless.

Where do you think that Fleshlight and AFF would be without porn traffic and the traffic generated from stolen porn product? AFF would be much smaller, and fleshlight would be nothing more than a demo unit on the owner's dick.

If Fleshlight is going to have a policy of accepting torrent traffic, then the adult companies need to have a "no fleshlight" policy.

RawAlex,

You are right. And, the TOS of dating sites and sex toys are so vague that some idiot (stealer) can rip off a mainsteam website pictures and put up a banner ad from them saying please support our sponsors to keep this site up.

Emailing the sponsor DOES NOT work. :(

Personally, I would love to know which ones...

RawAlex 08-13-2007 06:10 PM

In case everyone hasn't caught on, josh has left the building. Same MO as Lars these days, drop in, drop a huge stinking pile of shit on the board, argue for a bit about the shit, and then leave the people to yabber amoungst themselves.

Bottom line simple: If you have an adult site and you are promoting fleshlights, it is time to drop them.

Those who are taking note, may notice some colored nicks posting in this thread are the same who rode the Fleshlight-GFY-post-whore bandwagon a while back. If memory serves, could be the same people who post emu pics and improperly type "you" in subject and posts.

Can't blame 'em. That's why the image of a "sheep" is so popular, yet so ironic. If you're making money, you're making money, right?

Bake 08-13-2007 09:26 PM

Hey we all know there not going to drop accounts from these types of sites the TOS are only there for honest and so companies look like they care.
Is there anyone left here who believes the TOS matters when you can 20+ sales a day?

I heard he told you to go fuck yourself too.... And the camera wasnt just a gift. He wasnt "ripped off" for a penny either.

On a side note, there's really nobody that should or can bash you in how you became Juicy D. Links. You took an adult webmaster board, the posters on it and made it a living. I have serious respect for the market you made for yourself, in that regard.

However, the wholesale selling of such a "front" here and there deserves no respect.

You obviously don't have a clue about what torrent sites are. They are 100% stolen content!!!!!

Just look at any of them and you will see the stolen content you are in denial about.

What a LAME response from Fleshlight. You just concreted your companies status as a company to not promote and trash any time I can. Prepare yourself for a neverending roasting. Just ask AFF how that feels.

BTW, the ads do rotate so you might need to refresh it a few times (why i took a screen shot).

So this affiliate http://www.fleshlightgirls.com/produ...yNTo1,30,0,0,0 will be shut down soon correct ?

What fuck do you call that then??? it is stealing. The owner of the content did not give you permission to use the money on your personal bills, and he had to hear about the sale from the customer. 2 weeks time you couldn't even tell him that you made a sale and had been paid, you were too busy using his money on yourself.

Why didn't you send him the epass payment when you collected the money 2 weeks earlier instead of using the money on your personal bills.

Now shut the fuck up you worthless thief.

People would reply to them for you saying things like:

"Fleshlight will kill that affiliate in no time, they don't tolerate shit like that"!

The fact that you guys handle things in such a piss poor manner, try to play semantics and games with your policies to earn a few extra bucks, and fuck up communicating with affiliates time and time again, is why Fleshlight gets dissed repeatedly.

If you want to be in this industry for the long haul, fucking it over to make a few extra bucks on torrent and tube sites in the short term isn't the way to do it, IMHO.

I COULD talk about all of that, but I'm not going to, because you'll just saying I'm insulting you personally.

i agree :mad:

Aneros Josh 08-14-2007 04:19 PM

Since my post yesterday, I have talked with the owners of some of the largest torrent sites on the web. They are removing our ads from their non-DMCA compliant torrent sites and have told me that if anyone has a problem with their content on DMCA compliant sites, simply send a DMCA notice and it will be removed within 24 hours. As I stated yesterday (and was called an idiot for doing so), several companies send them previews of their content every month to seed on their torrent sites because they realize the value of such sites. This solidifies my claim that there is tons of "non-stolen" content on these torrent sites that can be used to make money with our product. It is in no way Fleshlight's responsibility to make content companies proactive with their content. Contrary to popular belief, we do have content. We are working on a proprietary player so that if someone wants to view one of our protected videos, their username would have to be verified in our system before they were granted access to play the video. For future reference, if anyone sees our ads being served with their content on a non-DMCA compliant torrent site, please notify me. I will make sure the particular torrent site is DMCA compliant and if they aren't, I will stop their traffic completely. If they are, I will even forward on the urls of your content and tell them to remove it for you. At this point, this is our solution and the bottom line is that companies need to either protect their content or figure out a way to make money with it on torrent sites because they are not going away.

Just so you know, all ads are removed from PirateBay and will be removed from TNAFlix by tomorrow and the sites that have been mentioned as being DMCA compliant are empornium and puretna. If you see any of your content on empornium or puretna, please send them a DMCA notice and they will remove the content within 24 hours. They have 2 people on staff that are hired solely for that purpose. If you would like to send me any other sites that are non-DMCA compliant and have Fleshlight ads on them, please feel free to do so and I will handle them accordingly.
