Is Paul Markham even in this industry?
 

I have my doubts:2 cents:

Are YOU ???:2 cents:

he was in 1960

No.

Are you?

Your sig is so fucked up. can't decide if I want to laugh out loud, or brainfart myself out of incomprehension.

the fact that you are even mentioning his name makes him a legend LOL

I've seen Paul's sales. Call him old fashioned if you want, say he pines too much for the old days, but dude has made more money in porn and lasted longer than 90% of the people here.

been in it since 99, which probably gives me a couple of more days than you:2 cents:

You know youre doing something right when you have an entire board of people hating on you...Keep it up!

Paul used to fucking shoot for some of this largest publications in this industry. 90%? Probably more like 99.9%... what he did with that cash is another story. Paul deserves MAJOR respect, and these cunts on the board that got into the game a year or two ago have no clue who he is and beat him down.

It's actually shameful to watch it happen.

I just know him as the Village Idiot

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:helpme

I'm sure he has made some good money.

I just wanted my own thread dedicated to Paul, plus I am angry that he has me on ignore.

That's cool.

Removed it, can't stand looking at it anymore.

Which tells you a lot about the publications and this industry.

The way you paint Paul Markham as the victim here is laughable. He has gone out of his way to insult, bore and berate everyone into laughing at his stupidity. Which he proves in every post.

I am far from painting him as a victim, but rather somebody that brought porn to what most of us consider "mainstream" today. Is he a victim? Possibly, of himself. Does he troll this board? Yep.

Point being, is that if it wasn't for those guys that "we" scanned pictures from, the internet may have not blossomed in quite the manner it did. Show some mother fucking respect.

Oh yeah, your site? http://www.cinemaerotique.com/ looks like it went the way of the Do-Do circa 1998. Just a heads up. :2 cents: :glugglug

Paul was never rude to me. :2 cents:

Publications? LOL.

Some people get lucky and are in the right place at the right time. He shot average looking content and made some bucks in an industry that was pretty much growing money. Forty years later he's not Hugh Hefner, and he's no where close to Dean Capture. He's just one of thousands of crappy content producers. Forty years later he's still less than average and not making any money.

He couldn't even sell his own content on line - instead, he lied about how well his sites were doing when the fucking join pages didn't even work. Yet at the same time he has the balls to tell us about the industry. He's a fucking content producer. That's like the guy who rotates my tires trying to tell the CEO of Ford how to sell a Ford Focus - he knows one aspect of the industry, and nothing else.

hot... :1orglaugh

What do you do? Take photos at the shows?

No, no no

I have the utmost respect for you dude, but you have issues with Paul that go beyond what he has done or will ever do. The fact of the matter remains is that he made it through to a certain extent, small or large, he did it.

Dean Capture he isn't. Hugh? Nope. He's Paul... Paul Paul Paul. Last time I checked he isn't claiming to be any of those people. He might be a broke crackhead, who knows. He lasted thus far and at least still has an internet connection. Compared to today's standards, his shit might suck... and it does.

He lied about how well his sales were doing? Fuck dude, people have been doing that since GFY opened it's doors. Hyping your business to bring in affiliates or sales is nothing that should be frowned upon. He was trying to make MORE money. Horrible,,,

Just saying man. There are smaller fish to pick on. Let the old man do his thing and act like a guy that's been around. Again, no disrespect intended.

What do you do, aside from trolling ?

You should know better. :1orglaugh :disgust

Paul Markhem was supposed to be dead by now from cancer or something. If he is still alive he should start a cult and create followers. This is like a God-like figure

Seeing all of these various people spitting blood over the rantings of some bored old man is getting ridiculous. He actually was in this industry at some point, and while his perspective is outdated, he is still allowed to speak. He is not breaking any rules.

Do I find Paul annoying at times? Sure. Are some of his ideas and thoughts outdated? Of course. But I simply ignore him if I do not want to get sucked into a debate with him. Who fucking cares?

There is no rule you MUST read his rantings, or even reply to him. Please explain why some level of self control to avoid people you do not like is so hard for some individuals?

The amount of anger and hatred people spend attacking Paul is fucking nuts. He doesn't fucking care what you think. I guess you are just hating on him to make yourself feel better, or to incite a mob to attack him. Nothing has stopped him to date, beyond a ban. You're wasting your time.

Ignore him like you would the Klan marching through town square and get on with your life.

:2 cents:

He made a decent living - that's it. In an industry that was handing out money by the wheelbarrow, he failed.

Then he thinks he has the right to tell everyone else what's wrong with our industry. I can shoot better content than Paul Markham, but you don't see me telling Dean Capture how to shoot a model.

You are letting some old man get the better of you. Switch to decaf.

:2 cents:

Paul earned several hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years from us alone.

It doesn't matter if you like what we do or not. We are not out to please everyone and definitely not anyone that likes routine porn.

But we don't call others clowns , fools, clueless etc as Paul Markham does.

He is as rude as he is ignorant and therefore has few friends among the intelligent.

He is a liar and at the same time demands respect.

B.C. or A.D.?

He is. I agree with 70% of what he says. 20% of what he says I disagree with. And the remaining 10% I see as insane.

Say what you will but if Paul Markham were the emperor of porn most of us here would be at least ten times richer right now.

Bravo.

So what? Other trolls call people on GFY much worse things than Paul does.

Who cares? This is not grade school. No one gives a shit if he has friends or not.

I do not think anyone here gives a shit what anyone else "demands". Nor their reasons.

:2 cents:

I really don't get your point here, I agree with all the points your making, its all not a big deal. It is a shame more intelligent discussions don't happen here instead of Paul's rantings but they are sort of amusing in a car crash sort of way.

Paul's only power is that which people give him.

If you allow him to piss you off, you gave him that power. He is powerless if you ignore him.

:2 cents:

more than you might think

what's the bat?

Look, I'm not donating. I don't care how sorry your sales are...
