Eric,
sure, not everyone is... I said good things about Paul here even. I like signupdamnit's posts, others have shown intellect.. YOU on the other hand, show nothing... |

Eric, interesting, who is contacting you? Considering we use Degban alongside our own internal crew and have no interest in using your services...
|
I envy your success which not many will admit to here but I just don't see what good it does for you to bicker about details of your operation. GFY is a bit like crack, but man go spend some of that money while you have it. You never know when your last day will come or the money won't be there any longer. Life is finite.

Gotta run Fabian. Much work to be done. Nice to chat with you as always. :thumbsup

Eric, thx for the heads up, I'll make sure nobody bothers you ever again, if it does happen, let me know...

The nice thing about threads like this is that the rest of us get a pretty good idea where lots of people stand. . |
Where did all of our Epassporte money go? Maybe we have an answer. :)

However, that is a shit load of money for the porn world. To put things into perspective (info found on google).... Larry Flynt's net worth way back in 2001 during the glory days, was $400 million. Hugh Hefner used to be worth a lot (600 million) but these days it's under $100 million. Both of these guys built their empires over a lifetime. Nathan built his in 3 years. :upsidedow What I do know is, if I had that kind of cash, responsibility, connections and know-how, I sure as hell would not be wasting my time on GFY trying to defend my position to people I didn't even know. I'd expect that from one of his lower grade uploader employees, but not from a man who could make such a power move within 3 short years. With that kind of cash it would be ALL about my family and my business. But to each his own. Maybe he is just lonely and emotionally dysfunctional. Then it would at least make a little sense. Spending the weekends posting on GFY trying to explain himself over and over and over again to dick heads like us, is exactly what someone with his ability, connections and know-how should be doing. Yea, makes perfect sense. Not sure how I didn't see that before. Sorry Nathan, I believe you now. |

I just can't imagine having that kind of dough and checking in on GFY every weekend to try to make people believe something about me. Hell, I can't image having a fraction of that dough and still coming here. |

back to the thread subject, Manwin or not, I think that unless there's other better resource, everybody (including me) will keep posting and doing business here. Maybe for some people who can attend shows, have other kind of contacts or stuff like that is easier to move out, but for those in the services area (design, programming, content and such), and ven more those of us outside US, something like GFY is a need, we'd do less than 50% of the business we already do, and that's a fact. Besides, it's not like hypocrisy in this board is something new, I bet that 99% of the people against Manwin would sell their souls for the right money. Hey... many already did! :winkwink:

A CEO of a company that size would know the size of his office space. How many floors doe you occupy in that building? As I told you office planning IS something I know about. |

Manwin "Well it's a Tube site like Youtube, but for porn. Users submit videos of their own and we are in the clear on 2257 because it's User Submitted. Bankers. What if the actors are under 18? Manwin. We watch for that. Bankers. How do you know? Manwin. We can tell. Bankers. What if the submitter is submitting videos he's not allowed to. Manwin. We ignore it until we get a DMCA. Bankers. We've read the porn industry is in decline. Manwin. Not if you give out a lot of free content. Of course in that case you can have $150 million. :1orglaugh Quote:

One thing to note that both Flynt and Hefner don't have, then or now, is major online global reach. Cut the B.S. both actually suck at it, for who they are - they both really dropped the ball online. They could have been much larger... Nathan and hahaha aren't the only super powers in our Industry. They just happen to be the two you hear about. Yes, Nathan could tell us to piss off or ignore us. But that wouldn't benefit him very much for reputation management/repairing reps, stopping rumors, etc. He's also the person with the info, and it sounds and looks like he doesn't have a right hand person he trusts to do that job. I read an article several weeks back that talked about major corps, like some of the top 500. Where the CEO's were going online more, Twitter, Facebook, actually sending emails to customers, etc. Doing rep management, solving issues hands on, watching the issues they really have... We will start seeing more and more of this as more people learn to research before they buy. That mixed with not having someone around that can do a better job than yourself, would probably mean any of us would be doing what he is.....if we cared at all. |

I've owned a pretty damn good program and worked 24/7 and was online all the time to field questions. If I had what Nathan had, you would see even more of me, not less. |
This is an interesting supposition, an unconfirmed rumor that would also constitute an ethical dilemma. In answer to the OP's question; |
I despise them, think they're crooks, and believe their empire is built on thievery, lies and other deception. That said, there's not many businesses out there that wouldn't want to fist fuck all their competition, and most if not all of you probably use products/services every day by companies who operate with that notion. They may not be doing it with crime, but they're likely trying to find any and every loophole imaginable to screw their competition, and of course all the "illegal" tubes owned by Manwin and others all capitalize on the one big loophole that is DMCA.
Anyways, what I'm saying is get pissed at the DMCA and fight for better protection of content, get pissed at underhanded shit that's being done, but you really can't get pissed about a company's desire to fuck everyone else because it's just way too prevalent these days. |
I'm not sure if its been covered yet Nathan, but what is your favorite color?

I can't believe how much time some people waste in this forum..
If they wrote all those keywords on a personal blog, GOOGLE would love them. Check all the keywords they wrote in this threads, hours and hours wasted for nothing.. When do they work? Do they really work? Anxiety makes some people want to write all the time and fight with others. |

My take on this board, for people like me is that I add more value to it then I get back. I should started my own blog and post my thoughts there instead of helping to add value to someone else's site helping them make ad dollars. I like eric so its all good, but if Manwin really does buy this place I'm going to start that blog. The last thing I will do is ad value to anything they own. |

2. can you name 10 other people? In adult? probably not. Doing that is very very rare even in mainstream. 3. does he post on gfy and waste his time here too? Quote:

Weird... I spend maybe 30-60 minutes posting in total on the weekend on this site, and somehow this is "wasting a lot of time"? You guys are funny...
I have even tried giving you a hint as to how I achieved what I did, but yet instead of wondering how you could use this info to your benefit, you continue to say I am a liar... no vision people, no vision at all! Paul, when did I ever say that I am the CEO of Manwin Canada? I am not the CEO of Manwin Canada, I do not care how big exactly the office is. All I knew was that the extended lease is around 50000 sqft, but I did not know the exact number so I waited a whole 6 hours until I was home to verify since I could not find it on my iPhone... To answer your question, 65% of 3rd floor for Management & Admin (rest of it is empty, reserved for us, we just did not build it out yet to not waste cash), 100% of 4th floor for general public, open floor office with conference rooms, 50% of 2nd floor for Support and our content pre and post production currently (likely either of the two are being moved to 3rd floor soon to expand the other) and for our cafeteria and in-house servers, ups, tech room. We are growing to 100% 3rd, 100% 2nd and option on 5th and 6th when they clear out... |

Every time you reply to him, it gives him another chance to spam his content that he has claimed is not good enough any more. Ignore him and he will stop posting. It's worked on other boards. This is the only one left now he posts on really. Ignore him, he will stop. He has retired and posts here solely to wind people up. Worked with me before I sussed his game. I suggest you give up. We all know you get it in ways he cannot even fathom. Let him fester in his own piss and shit soaked stretch pants. |

You'd only have to make 17 uploads a day, every day for 4 months, to get it. Totally possible if that was all you did all day. Good luck! |
An army of 300 dedicated uploaders.. That's serious business.

There is lots of companies in online adult doing lots of money, think at big cam and traffic broker networks for example... just they will not tell their financials in forums as fear the tax thing :)
About miracle buy... in past 3 years lots of big sites was sold and purchased for multi million deals, but in silent mode, as buyer was not hahaha or manwin. And if it is not hahaha or manwin to buy, no one knows (at times not even the employees know who is the new owner lol). That's because most (except manwin?) will not write any press, not reply any forum rumor, and hide big time, but not because they're mafia or money launder people really. They're geeks. Note that the italian mafia's yearly revenue is $90 billion, russian one may be not that smaller, and offshore banks investors deal the billion things, so I don't think they really care to $100 million deals like buy pornhub and put nathan there. Yes $100 million looks big for a site but is small for the real conspiracy theory people. Nathan is just one who replies to forum people giving info (eventually too much info, if he was my puppet leader I would have fired him for talking too much, le seems more like Steve Jobs who reply in person to email of guy who say iphone 4 sucks as drops signal iof hold left handed, and he reply hold it with the other hand) and this talkative attitude sure is more shocking and uncommon than the $100 million thing or the whole tube theft content thing. Oh by the way I advertized on pornhub and conversion is indeed low :) Just my 2 euro cents |
