I understand what your saying...However I have been back in the industry for about 2 months now...I have spent quite a bit of cash on different things...I have made right on the previous debts and coming publically for everyone to know...Originally posted by bl4h

Thank youComment

Whatever the situation is, once a scammer, always a scammer. I just can't buy into the tough situation bullshit. You're a man, an adult, and you being in an abusive relationship should have nothing to do with money you owed or obligations you made. It's business, and no one gives a shit about your personal life. I'm sorry if that's harsh, but that's how business works.
If you were truly a "stand-up guy", you'd have divulged this months ago. You'd have contacted the people you owed money to the second you could. My guess is that you are only coming clean because you knew it would come out eventually and you probably have something coming out soon that you need community support from.
I call horseshit.Comment

I have contacted the people I owed money to...All has been taken care of...If people choose not to do business with me over this...I understand and I will deal with that as it happens...Regardless I am not going anywhere...I will stay involved in the industry and helping where I can.Originally posted by pocketkangaroo
Why did I come clean now? Because I have taken care of all previous debts...And I plan on going to Webmaster Access West...And I have a network of sites about to launch...So it was the time to go ahead and come clean...
My personal situation had alot to do with what happened...Thats why it matters...I have not had the cash until recently to pay debts and handle things...I had been struggling most of this year...Bouncing jobs to jobs...
Again...People can choose or not choose to do business with me...What I did is what I did and I am here to own up to it...Make it public and known...
ThanksComment

I guess what I'm saying is that if it wasn't for your network of sites coming out, no one would know about any of this shit. It seems your "coming out" to the board has more to do with your financial interests than guilt. I apologize if I'm wrong, but I don't see why you didn't come back 2 months ago saying who you were and you were looking to make amends when you had money. You've been buying sigs so I'd imagine you had paid people back months ago. Would this thread even be made if you weren't getting back into adult?Originally posted by Adult Warden
As for the personal reasons, I have no doubt they affected your situation. I was never denying that. I'm just saying in business, no one gives a shit. Ask yourself how many affiliates would be cool with not being paid because the owner of a company got in a fight with his girlfriend of something. They won't be, because business and personal life have nothing to do with one another. You make obligations, you follow through. I'm sorry for your situation, but don't use it as a crutch to get out of it. Be a man and completely accept your fuck up. Here is a good quote:
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
Again, sorry for being harsh. You're young, you made a mistake. But as you get older and more into business, you'll realize that most succesful people don't give two shits about excuses.Comment

Notice how many of us are flying sigs supporting NoCarrier's sick kid. The majority of us have no clue who he is, and no reason to care for his personal life, yet we do. In the adult industry, many people give a shit about each other's personal lives.Originally posted by pocketkangaroo
I'm not condoing what Adult Warden did, but he's setting things straight and making things right. No need to crap all over him for that, even if his reasons are financially motivated.

Actually I didn't. I didn't even know who Jon was until this thread. I haven't been around long enough to catch the old drama.
If anyone else would like to come forward with any secrets or changed nicks now is the time. I don't have enough time to keep up with all the current drama on gfy, and I really don't have the time to go back and research old drama. Lets just get everything out in the open right now so I can get back to work.-

BULLSHIT! Yes, Hostive is not around anymore... but guess what my old nick was? Yea Jon, notice the location Ft. Collins, CO.... and where that wire for $2,500 came from?
Yeah, my old nick was Hostive, I am Bryan Sparks, one of the fomer partners in Hostive. You scammed me for $2,500 and sadly no sob story is going to make up for it. Regardless of what was going on in your life you took $2,500 from our company. Lensman was nice enough to give us 1 month of free advertising in return. It doesn't make things any better, and I won't rest. You screwed me and I am going to make damn sure everyone on every board I post on knows who you are, what you did and why they shouldn't trust you.
Unless you want to talk about returning the money you won't have a quiet or easy time in this industry. My ICQ is in my sig, if you want to find me, do.Comment

it was 2500 but Hostive got a banner spot out of the deal and he was only a PARTNER so if his other partner was invovled spark only should get 50% or anything at allOriginally posted by KrisKross

I hate when people change their handles . . oh well . . . good luck, you are going to need it.
There is a saying I firmly believe in . . . well two actually for this instance:
1. Fuck me once, shame on you. Fuck me twice, shame on me.
2. Learn from your mistakes, and whenever possible, learn from the mistakes of others.Comment

I agree Baddog, but I think I was a bit different. I was and still am a gallery builder. I was building galleries before I was wit Hostive. I didn't change it to hide, I just changed since Hostive went bankrupt.Originally posted by baddogComment

Originally posted by SparksSounds reasonableOriginally posted by Sparks
Anyways who cares of you changed you nick or make a mistake, people can change good or bad on a dime, you have to look at more then just one mistake to judge someone.
I've been burned at least ten times, and these companies are still around. GFYgame or whatever went out of business and just like anyone who uses someone that goes out of business you can lose your investment.
I'm sure it will make right but I wouldn't think the full $2500 is needed. maybe some new advertising or something.
Also if you only worked for Hostive then why is it your money and not the companies?Like the desert needs the rain

Jon, I would think that if you truely were sincere you would have brought this to everyones attention when you first came back on the scene, not after working deals and getting business started again....IMO you purposely had this planned from the beginning, not after deals were in the air...people had the choice at first, but now that you have deals in the works, you give them little choice because they already have money in the table
the only reason you came clean now is because you could lose money if it went any furtherComment

Hostive declared bankruptcy, I was still building galleries and still am and I wanted to keep the post count. I wasn't running from anything, so I didn't think that registering a new nick was neccessary.Originally posted by baddogComment

Sparks, were you a partner at Hostive? Or just an employee?
How come no warning was sent before you pulled the plug on everyone's hosting?Last edited by KrisKross; 09-26-2006, 09:17 PM.Comment

You know, normally I'd friggin ROAST someone for this sort of thing.
But I like Jon. I like his ideas and his sites. I don't think he would come back and announce something like this if he was planning on running a "dodgy" operation.
Thank you for being honest Jon, you've still got my support in anything you do.Comment

Bear with me hear, because I'm not familiar with the particulars in being a host, purchasing bandwith and declaring bankruptcy...Originally posted by Sparks
Verio pulled the plug on your bandwith with absolutely no notice whatsoever? You were a day late on your payment and they just cut you off? And you only had one bandwith provider?
Seems to me that a problem like having to declare bankruptcy doesn't just crop up over night. I don't think it's like one day, you're in the black, next day you're deep in the red and bankrupt.
And, even without a bandwith provider, you still have the servers and all the data, right? Again, I'm not familiar with the process, but I'd think it wouldn't have been to hard to get that data moved elsewhere so that you could email your clients and let them know what was going on.
Hell, I'm pretty sure Verio didn't cut off your connection at home, right? I don't seem to remember seeing so much as a post explaining what was going on.Comment
