Something doesn't add up here.
Looking at similarweb, you seem to have steady amount of traffic of recent times, probably not as much as your peak period, when this niche was highly popular.
But it seems you ruffled a few feathers from the start of your journey on here:

For clarity, I want to make a brief summary, especially since a 10-year-old post is being brought up again, so everyone can see the situation more clearly.
Back then, Brian Mike and I had a banner sale agreement. The issue was that his script was not working with XenForo, so I opened a support ticket on the official forum to get help integrating it properly. In the meantime, Brian had already sent the $70.
The problem escalated because I did not reply to him on Skype one morning. I am in Italy, and because of the time difference, if I am asleep, I simply cannot respond. After waiting a few days with no update yet from the ticket, and not seeing an immediate reply from me on Skype, he assumed I was trying to scam him.
As for PayPal, the dispute had been closed. In reality, I had closed it myself because I intended to send the money directly instead of leaving the original transaction history there. That was a mistake on my part, but it was not done with fraudulent intent.
When I woke up, I found a huge number of Skype messages and, on top of that, a thread on GFY publicly calling me a scammer. At that point, seeing how fast the accusations had started without even giving me time to explain, I decided I did not want to give him anything at all and responded on GFY, asking him to apologize and showing people how he had handled the situation.
From there, the matter dragged on for a long time. Obviously, my reaction toward him became offensive, just as his was toward me. The difference is that I defended myself alone, while he opened multiple threads and built a small group of allies whose only purpose seemed to be to keep attacking my name.
Regarding the accusation about the banner I once had on KikDirty, it was a banner with wording that, as an Italian, I honestly did not understand was referring to animals or anything similar. There was nothing explicitly written. It only had “K9” combined with a Skype contact. At the time, I did not know what it meant.
I do not know whether that was intentionally done by someone to continue the drama, but I do know I was actually paid for the banner, and the person who paid me was an Indian customer. The banner was online for a little over two hours before someone contacted the Skype account in question and, after a long conversation, discovered that he was selling videos involving sex with animals.
That said, I am not responsible for what another person does on their own website or in private chats. There was nothing explicit in the banner itself, and as soon as I understood the situation and read the conversation from the person who reported it on GFY, I removed it immediately. I do not consider myself responsible for that.
There were also threads offering payment for my photo, people posting Facebook pictures of completely different individuals, and all kinds of invented stories whose only purpose was to keep the circus going.
To conclude: after around six months of constant attacks between me and Brian Mike, he eventually wrote to me saying that, from his side, everything was fine and settled. To thank him and to show my honesty after all the mud that had been thrown at me, I voluntarily gave him a link on KikDirty.com a link I normally sell for $250 per year. That link is still active today.
On top of that, over the years we have also exchanged favors, so we are on good terms. I consider myself one of the most honest and respectable sellers on GFY. I have made over 2,000 sales without problems with anyone.
I would also like to add that I am currently building a partnership with a hosting company that has a highly authoritative brand. They themselves have seen and recognized that the product I sell has real quality, otherwise they would never have considered doing a bundle with me. Honestly, I would not want them to be dragged into something like this as well, so I would appreciate a bit more respect from all of you.
There are also people on GFY who have written to me privately established programmers with many years of experience to compliment the work I have done. I do not want to name them or involve them, and some of them even advised me not to respond to any of this. But at the same time, I have the right to defend myself from comments clearly designed to damage my image and devalue my product.
At this point, I honestly think those continuing this theater are the ones making themselves look bad. So what I ask is simple: stop this, let this thread return to its original purpose, and allow it to remain what it was meant to be from the beginning a sales thread for two valid, premium products: a cam aggregator and a mass embed video platform.
