    Re: Adult.com & Acacia

    If/When Adult.com and its affiliated sites settle with Acacia Research. do you think there will be a shunning of GFY?

    As a lot of people have spoken out quite loudly agains the companies who did settle. Some have even pulled links. So does anyone think people will cease to come about out beloved GFY if Adult.com settles?

    People will still come. But I really doubt we'll be able to continue talking about ACACIA and IMPAI.

        Its a real cowboy story: there's a strong connection
        between the two that's in the blood of many oldtimers!

        The story involves Serge, ar person called 'lensman' and
        Tom's newbie booster!

                      I doubt it'll be the wide open acacia slamming board it is now, but then again i'm not convinced there will be manditory censorship unless thats part of their deal.

                        Wouldn't Acacia love that kind of deal. Gag one of the most prominent adult webmaster gathering places on the net.

                          If they do that they would make it themselves a lot harder
                          to gain information.

                          Everything that could potentially hurt Acacia is basicly posted here by the clowns way in advance.. all they have to do is read
                          and make notes.

                          If i was Acacia, GFY would be my best friend.

                            Trust me.. those fuckers enjoy the 'fight the patent' and 'impa' posts a lot better than i do.. im sure it puts a smile on their
                            faces daily.

                            All the clowns that are still thinking this thing is about a patent we have to fight.. ;)

                              Good point.. My lack of sleep is making me closed minded. They don't know much about the industry as it is. Watching this board is a window into a lot of whats going on. I wonder how many people they have monitoring this and other boards.

                                          Giving this oversaturated market, fucked up by 100's of nitwits,
                                          back to a few big players.

                                          If adult companies werent so eager to be part of this monopoly
                                          nobody would have ever heard of 'acacia'.

                                          Its fucking brilliant.

                                            as much as I like to TAKE credits when credits are due,
                                            I also love to GIVE credits and GFY is totally Lensman's achievement I have NO part of,
                                            he did it all on his own, and what a remarcable job I must say!

                                            Turning shit into a fertilizer at it's BEST!

                                            Serge, you know i always have to fit you in somewhere when it comes to succes stories

                                            Ok let me put it different then:
                                            It was Lensman's achievement only because you didnt do it.

                                            Ok?

                                              That would seem like a free speech issue at that point... I hope it does not come to that.

                                                    back to a few big players.

                                                    If adult companies werent so eager to be part of this monopoly
                                                    nobody would have ever heard of 'acacia'.

                                                    Its fucking brilliant.


                                                    Hmmm.. intersting. Big players settle and achieve a monopoly rather than fight and have the patent invalidated?

                                                    Real monopolies are usually a lot more brutal to get into than just paying a licensing fee of 2% gross or $1500.

                                                    But it would explain the settlements we keep seeing.

                                                      wait til there are 14 license fees with a 30k a month total license "fee".

                                                      Then we'll see how many "noobs" get into the biz.
