Very nice, Steve you've never been a cocky asshole even tho 99.9% of successful people in your situation are, that earns a TON of plus points, I'm proud to say "Lightspeed, Steve, is a friend of mine"

Truth be told, you are the main reason I left GFY in the first place. You don't want anyone to succeed. You seem to delight in misery. So I feel sorry for you. No, my new idea is not dead. It may actually benefit people like you, although that would not be by my choice. I've asked you before to stay out of my threads, and I'll stay out of yours. Please reconsider that proposition, and get out of my life forever. |
amazing that you posted this... you were one of the first people who I learned to look up to from my very first show and your hospitality and friendship is refreshing. xoxo

Any person with a minimum amount of internet savvy knows many easy ways to get their porn for free, whether its off of tubes, or filesharing sites, or p2p networks. The knowledge of how to get free porn cements itself in the collective mindset of the world more and more every day. Reversing this trend is really a Herculean task and the person who said that it will only happen with laws being passed seems to be right. I don't know how else you change public conciousness; correcting the widespread opinion that they will never have to pay for porn. But if any positive change is to happen it starts with honest threads like this and people banding together and sharing ideas.

do watermarking like the baseline testing we did and you can get 212% more type ins do branding bugs right and you can turn those type in into search engine quality hits do live intergration properly and conversions go back to levels they were befor the tube sites do private trackers properly and you can increase retention, and keep your content locked down for free. do product placement properly you could double or triple your production output. only 2 of those 5 are innovative (something everyone including mainstream is doing wrong) it possible to turn this "piracy" into the biggest money maker since the vcr rockstars like you just don't listen.

No good deed goes unpunished
No act of charity goes unresented No good deed goes unpunished That's my new creed My road of good intentions Led where such roads always lead No good deed goes unpunished! One question haunts and hurts Too much, too much to mention: Was I really seeking good Or just seeking attention? Is that all good deeds are When looked at with an ice-cold eye? If that's all good deeds are Maybe that's the reason why No good deed goes unpunished! |

Steve I think one of your biggest enemies is your ego. You let a little thread that exposed your drop in affiliate generated revenue drag you back here and you've been posting ever since trying to reestablish some sort of I'm not sure what. I don't know man it's really painful watching you these past few weeks.

Geez Shap that is mean. He said he was sorry and made a great thread. A majority of the people on here are not man enough to apologize for their behavior. If he wants to post on here that is his business. I think he is right that people in adult need to come together. It is so dumb that we all waste time trying to tear each other down. I do not see this thread as painful. I see it as honest and frankly there is not enough of that in the adult industry. :2 cents: |

seriously i am a nashian game theorist i am quick to forgive quick to retaliate basic game theory look back on every negative exchange we have ever had it only got nasty AFTER you started with your bullshit (stalker, theif, etc) if you listened instead of attacked you have less enemies, learn something and make a lot more money. |

I do agree that the companies need to start working together again. Remember all the trades that use to happen, when companies looked out for each other and generated sales to their competition ... don't see that much anymore. If any company wants to do some biz together, TopBucks is always open to hear it and reciprocate. |
I think Steve is right. Instead of trying to make changes on the fly, and recreating the wheel, I think sometimes the best way to revamp something is to take a step back from it, re-access the situation and then jump back in with a new approach. Hope that works out for any and all who are willing.

However, product placement in adult is a non-starter. Who is going to pay for product placement in an internet porn video? And this private tracker idea that you seem to be obsessed with is something that no one know or cares about. How exactly is using a private tracker for a torrent of any use to make someone money? Gideon seems to keep harping on that idea, but I really don't see the application of it. |

branding bugs is not the same thing as a watermark, it is closer to an info bug and that is significantly different. if you can hire a girl to fuck on camera you can hire her to chat with the members after the scene airs for the first time. no one should have a problem adding a live component. However no one is doing it correctly even when they have a live component to the site. Quote:

setting up a private tracker is fulfulling the fair use right people have to use torrents for free. Once that fair use right is provided for fully, other trackers can't hide behind that fair use right. if you can't see how getting rid of illegal copies can make you more money, there is nothing i can do for you. |

Miranda Kerr is a hottie. I love her and Adriana Lima. She does kind of look like Jordan Capri. :thumbsup |
Gideongallery, could you name someone doing correct product placement in adult?
Cause the biggest of the big, with skilled marketers that have done this before, failed doing product placement in our Industry. People that have done it before, can not get it work in adult. Not saying some people don't make money doing it, but you might as well open up clip sites if you want to do that much work for little money. It's not worth the employee costs to find products that are willing to work in adult. And porn names/products in mainstream films is a fail too. |

but that because everyone is trying to run the iron man before they even learn to walk. when you jump so far ahead of the cycle you are only going to get a fraction of the value. that being said some people are getting free goods for their videos. |

And you think, you have the answer? I highly doubt it.. It doesn't work for one very very very simple factor. Porn isn't big enough, nobody is going to pay you what it's really worth, if they will give you the time of day. Now the question is... have you ever tested this? What films? |
