We learned our 10k lesson. Awhile back, we ordered some custom content from a guy that came fairly well recomended, and we got our vids and stuff. Like 2 months late. Which hurts when you have the site design sitting there, affiliates all primed and ready to promote this hot new site ect....then to try and keep the fires burning for a 2 month delay. Then when we got our content, it fuckin sucked ass. The guy promised he would use fresh exclusive models, and a third of em had been all over the net.
The site coverted like shit, and we lost alot of our good affiliates becasue of it. It was a bigger mess then I really care to get into,
the point is, when you think you have researched and checked someone out, check again. And don't take the content producers friends word for anything. Ask around on every board to can get to, and make sure you know what you are getting.
I guess at least your friend has things documented, I hope he can recover.

Wow, this sounds very familiar.... those I talked before this all went down had nothing but good to say about this one..... it's when money started changing hands much later is when all hell broke loose.....
sextoyking..... sent ya an icq message and waiting on you to respond.
StarkReality, no nothing like that. I met the guy from a friend of mine several months ago but hadn't really done any real business with him...... and seemed nice enough. It wasn't until THIS situation til I seen the colors he was wearing.... I am just glad *I* didn't get my company involved.... I am closely enough involved in this one just having a friend get bitten by it.
