No matter how big I think I am? WTF? I think I am a nobody in this industry. I have never seriously claimed to be anything more than that. Often when people ask me who I am or what I do I tell them I am a newbie. I have even had my name badge read "Newbie" at a number of shows. The fact that a large number of people on GFY tend to follow me or like me does not mean that I think I am anything special. Stop holding me responsible for the words and actions of others.Originally posted by machinegunkelly
With the way this business has been lately , I gotta take fletches side on this for sure .
I answer useless quotes and emails all the time ,
waste alot of time on clients that are just " looking " but don't tell you that , everything is set in stone as they say and then you hear nothing , in fact . there is one character on this board that mustve hit me up 17 times to ask for a quote on the same damn site .. over and over again , we waste time with enough potential orders to book ourselves for years on end .
Ill be damned if I would be signing anything before payment was in hand .
Aaron , I think you're abit out of line here .
No matter how big you think you are , some of the biggest " personalities " on this board waste my time often enough to see where fletch and cherry are comming from .
Now...About the people who waste your time...AGAIN...Why is Adult any different than mainstream? A potential customer is a potential customer is a potential customer. How many times have you gone to a store and talked to a sales rep then walked out without buying anything?
I deal with people every day who waste my time...It's part of doing business but I would NEVER tell them "Hey...Unless you place an order now, you are not worth my time." That's just fucked.Last edited by AaronM; 02-19-2004, 10:53 AM.Comment

I am the top designer in the adult industry in the opinions of many. I am kept extremely busy because of that fact. So busy, in fact, that my girlfriend has to start answering my ICQ messages for me.
Someone contacts her and tells her he wants her to have me sign some papers.
But there's a catch...
20 other people will also be getting a shot at this contract.
I am highly fucking motivated now. I would love to take time out of my enormously busy schedule to sign papers and look over a deal that I have a 1:20 chance of landing (5% chance of getting the job, 95% chance of NOT getting the job).
Yep. I'm fucking motivated now.
And then the guy calls my girlfriend, whom I love more than anyone, an assmonkey on the largest message board in the industy.
I am VERY motivated now. I really want to be super nice to this person.
Aaron, I love ya. But in this case I'm shaking my head.Comment

This is why I use the phone for my corporate biz dealings. Instant messaging looses all the inflections, tone and emotions.
If it that important, pick up the phone and call. Thats how business gets done the fastest way. If you can take a plane cros country to see people, you can call them too.

This is not a 1:20 thing. EVERYBODY that I contacted will be offered a peice of the action. I contacted people in all aspect of this industry as well as mainstream.
There was a 100% chance of doing this deal with me if he was interested. Just like all the others I contacted.
I'm glad that everybody seems to know what my intentions are and how things will work for others. NOT.
Then you all bitch at me because I want to protect my ideas. What a fucking joke.Comment

Based on what I read in those ICQ logs, I would have been mad at my girlfriend if she had reacted in any way other than how Fletch's girl acted.Comment

I am bowing out of this thread now. Because I really like Aaron. A lot.
And I also like Fletch a lot.
So, I'll no longer post anything publicly. If I have anything to say on the matter, it's all ICQ from here on.
Aaron, you are "the man" in what you do. No doubt.
Likewise, Fletch is the absolute best at what HE does.Comment

Maybe everyone's bitching about the way you're handling it now, not the way anyone handled it on ICQ. If I were Fletch I'd ask you to sign an NDA as well.Originally posted by AaronM

Don?t know what the big deal is in signing a confidentiality document (below is part of one that I signed yesterday to get a RFP). At least you know the company is serious and having a RFP is a lot easier to price out rather than having the client say: I want a website and how much is it going to cost.
On the other hand, if I didn?t want to sign it, I sure would not want to be called on an ?assmonkey? on a forum.

Here's a friendly advice for Fletch:
Learn to your gf to be a bit more friendly when she responds to potential clients. I understand she is not a sales person, but since it has this role it will benefit your end. If her friendly attitude is not received from the other part she needs to make sure this will be achived. Today's pain in the ass webmaster can be next time your best one. Suddenly closing him the door won't make him knock it again.
[10:11] AaronM: I don't care who you are....Your attitude reflects on Fletch's business.
[10:12] Fletch: look, there is no attitude I am being honest
Aaron has a valid point here. You can be honest towards your client and respond in a way that won't reflect as negative response.
I bet you already know what I said and possible the fact that your gf replied changes everything, but.....would you like a sales person to handle with the exactly same way your business? Personally I wouldn't.

yeah that's what I tried to say. broken english. No doubt with a little experience she could become a great sales person. Women as I have said are much better on this than men. At least works when they talk to meOriginally posted by AaronM

yeah a misunderstanding that was compounded my a thoughtless thread attacking someones employee and girlfriend.
But, drama rules GFY these days, maybe could be why folks are moving on when a business misunderstanding turns into silly drama.

You are a fucking idiot.Originally posted by m00d
No, they had a misunderstanding via ICQ. Aaronm made this thread on GFY to get attention.
Have somebody contact me when you have accomplished anything in your life.....It does not even have to be industry related. For now, you are on my ignore list.
The few, the proud, the complete fucking idiots and trolls.

Glad I'm not the only person that this happens to.Originally posted by Fletch XXX
As i said.
im not interested in working with anyone.
I dont want to hear his idea.
I have people hit me up all the time wanting to "partner" and "hit me with new ideas"
aaron m is the thiird this week hahah, he hit me up wanting to "talk about templates" and everyones got an idea on how i can "make more money with them"
as for noncompetes, me and my girl both signed them in 1997 when we started ;)
I hear these things day in and day out, and aside from that I AM NOT INTERESTED!
so why should she get me to sign a paper?
my girl knows exactly what I needed done in this situation.
If anyone has any need to contact me and do business thats fine, but I pick and CHOOSE who i do business with.
Have we ever done business Aaron? nope.
so dont start putting me in the category qwith your fake charachters and your board drama addiction ok?
you have no respect for me, as said you wouldnt be dancing on a board waving a Fletch Flag if that was true.
ill drop this now, nothing else needs to be said.
People contact me quite often to discuss ideas and sign a NDA. Most of them time I dont bother because I already have plenty to work on. I'll just let them know that hey I'm really busy and cant devote my attention and time to this, you'd be better off asking someone else right now.Comment
