Even in the good ole days the percentage of high earners was small.. It's not much different then it was back then in terms of that %. It's just that MOST that are in that bracket or higher don't spent all or any of their time on boards. Yes, things have changed in the industry, but there are still LOADS of people making some very good $. Not just the "big players", but regular affiliates. Problem is is people expect everything to come to them without much work.
In the end they make nothing and complain that tubes are killing the industry or other shit. Sure, the tubes have hurt us, but we are far from dead.. Not even close. I may not be one of those high earning affiliates anymore, but I don't bitch that tube or torrents or other things are the reason I'm not earning much.. It's MY OWN fault.
The "gold rush days" were not beneficial to everyone that was in the porn industry. I'll guarantee that even back then 90% of the affiliates that were around had no idea how to even make 1 sale. How is that different from today, really? It's harder? No kidding. That's how business is. Things will always get harder. You just have to work hard to make sure that you actually succeed.
