It's the guys who were doing 10-20 joins a day and now are doing 5 or 6 - they're suffering.

Like I said then, they are still making alot of money.
Even 50% of what they did 4 years ago is an amazing amount of money and most probably over 6 figures a month.
Smaller guys yeah probably having a hard time but on the same token I do not see alot of smaller companies doing anything other than put up half baked tours, retarded repeat content and poor branding and even worse galleries.
Look at your hands you can count on them the companies that have solid exclusive content, solid branding, solid presentation and solid customer/client relations.
Is that the best our industry can do? 10 companies cleaning up everything while everyone else toils on bullshit repeat content poor presentation and no branding? It's deserving they fail for offering substandard services.
Tubes are killing the small guys, thats true and I agree but they are failing for more reasons than just the tubes alone.
