    Those of us who really love what we do and are looking to create something that we think is really good...have no interest in trying to pull any stupid stunts.

    And always keep this in mind...assholes and scumbags are everywhere. There are PLENTY of people out there who deliberately join pay sites and steal everything and then do a fucking chargeback at the end of the day.

    As far as pricing goes...yeah, I guess people who weren't adults before the internet just do not understand how fucking cheap a $30 paysite membership with tons of videos and pictures is compared to how it was for decades before that when you had to first actually live somewhere that HAD an adult bookstore...and then you paid $50 for a single vid title with maybe 7 scenes on it. Or $5 for a magazine with 21 pictures in it.

    Fuck that. The crappiest paysite on Earth is still a bargain in comparison. It doesn't give people any excuses to steal.
    Its because you were implying people care how much goes into making a porno or whatever. Piracy is one way of stealing, meanwhile many companies basically steal by screwing over customers all the time. What's the difference?

        I gotta say, even though i'm supposed to be on your ignore list, your reply was hilarious. No matter if you look like an actor in one of corbin fishers films.

        To all webmasters. Use a reputable IP Enforcement company such as Nate Glass's Take Down Piracy. They operate within the law, and don't work with hackers, nor have ties to CP as Robert King and his copy-control company do.

              I wasn't aware you are on my "ignore" list. Even though you look like...oh wait a minute, nobody knows what you look like. You're just another highschoolish "nickname" on GFY with no real credibilty. Sorry.

                It's amazing that on a forum in an industry which sells a product that can be pirated. so many seem to be so against fighting piracy.

                Are they all wasting time telling us we're wasting time, or do they have a vested interest in piracy?

                  wow. you got me there sherminator. I have more 'credibility' than you can imagine. I'm just not an attention whore like you, and the rest of your fag crew here. And don't feel the need to 'publish' all of my accolades on a forum. But you seem to think anybody really care's about your 'most successful year ever where you made half a million or so' Big deal. I seriously LOL'd when I read that post.

                  I really don't understand why you would want so much attention of yourself and that old fat grandma with downs syndrome that you seem to be in love with. Sorry.

                                  What if filelockers simply cut content producers in on the deal?

                                  They're already paying affiliates a certain percent.

                                                Are they all wasting time telling us we're wasting time, or do they have a vested interest in piracy?
                                                It boggles the mind. It also lets you know what side of the fence everyone is on.

                                                Even if you are indifferent or claim you don't support piracy, why would you post anything negative towards those who are trying to do something about it? They are all pirates and freeloaders, that is why. Quick to run behind the "prove it" mantra.

                                                They're already paying affiliates a certain percent.
                                                They should have though about that before. It just may have worked and everyone wins a little. It's too late now.

                                                        A lot of this is related to the divide between content producers and those that have never produced content, IMO.

                                                        There are thousands of "adult webmasters" that only use content bought or aggregated (or stolen :P), and have never produced and created an adult video/photo in their lives.

                                                        I think that the elitist attitude of those that do not produce content, yet make their money from adult content miss the big picture:

                                                        Who is going to buy porn from a porn site that contains no current porn?

                                                        Stop treating content producers like they are far beneath you. Where are you gonna get the content you rely on to make money, if the producers can't produce, because they all go out of business due to piracy?

                                                        If you own a porn site, yet buy your content, then you SHOULD consider closing down the free porn sites as a win for you as well.

                                                          Makes me wonder what the ratio of content pushers to producers really is?

                                                            That's what I suspect. They have an vested interest in seeing it fail. So they waste time trying to point out how piracy can't be stopped, won't be stopped and ridiculing any attempts to slow it down or stop it's growth.

                                                            The people trying to stop it are not doing anything to them, not asking them to help or contribute and unless they get benefit from piracy curbing or reducing it will have no effect on their business.

                                                                    The people trying to stop it are not doing anything to them, not asking them to help or contribute and unless they get benefit from piracy curbing or reducing it will have no effect on their business.
                                                                    I'll be the first to admit it will never be "stopped." It has always been here, it always will be. So that I want to be clear. No one will stop piracy. However, it can be contained to a manageable point.

They are extremely brand risk sensitive and have had no problem terminating relationships based on that sensitivity.

They seem to have had no qualms about putting a blanket ban on all legit adult sites so why not on the far worse cousin? If they deny knowledge of the file locker's primary purpose for existence then maybe they really do secretly want to keep some of that dirty money.

                                                                                            I suspect 100 to 1 or worse. As an adult site with several hundred affiliates I have to assume that the average membership site might have as many as 200 active affiliates. Then of all the membership sites how many of those actually produce all their own content as opposed to buying their content? Maybe the pushers to producers ratio is more like 1000 to 1.

                                                                                                  The key here is to identify file lockers that deliberately take advantage of the DMCA takedown revolving door.

                                                                                                  If a file locker is serious about cleaning up it's act then it can simply prohibit anyone from posting to warez and piracy sites, if it did that and deleted files placed on such sites then it would become very difficult for the pirates.

                                                                                                  We'll act on any site which is seen to be supported by or promoting the use of their service by pirates.

                                                                                                      The key here is to identify file lockers that deliberately take advantage of the DMCA takedown revolving door.

                                                                                                      If a file locker is serious about cleaning up it's act then it can simply prohibit anyone from posting to warez and piracy sites, if it did that and deleted files placed on such sites then it would become very difficult for the pirates.

                                                                                                      We'll act on any site which is seen to be supported by or promoting the use of their service by pirates.
