JFK is having a meltdown ... call 911 for emergency

Would my main issue with him being starting a competitive business? No, my main concern would not be that he's opened up a competitive business that competes with FUBAR. If he never got involved with XXX, I would still dislike him because of his (a) arrogance and (b) spamming. I mean, Jesus Fucking Christ (pun intended) he posted this exact thread on multiple boards.

That's just the start of my issues.

I wouldn't even call this a competitive business. Similar business model, but poorly executed.

You Richard were among the guilty parties back a few years ago, all too eager to help out Julius (JFK) without knowing the facts. You never knew who I was until I introduced myself to you at YnotSummit. Without divulging everything, I will leave the following keyword for you to ponder: frankie

Who turned off Multi Quote?!

Baddog, as with all rumors it's not worth repeating. It wasn't a very big surprise when I was told, though.

I personally think it's a travesty. One of the shakers and movers of .XXX at a Vegas show didn't like the fact I was with a pretty blonde and told me to "Go back to my own country". Considering I was in my country and he wasn't, I found it amusing. The fact that I could have broken his neck anytime I wanted too made me just walk away. That's the type of person you have behind the scenes at .XXX and ICM.

Before I'm hit with holier than thou type posts, I had to work with that fucktard later on down the road. I made the call to leave a project because I wanted nothing to do with that racist fuck. You are absoultely right, "It's all about the money" for some people, but I chose the morals I can afford, and I can afford not to do business with certain people.

I met these clowns a while back, before the .xxx thing and I didn't like them on first meeting. I have a finely honed douche bag detector and these guy set it off like a fucking Ed Hardy enthusiast convention.

Does Shad have the same opinion?

I personally feel bad by reading the characterization of POS for JFK. Unfair is little. If he was anything close to that the adult industry would have figured it over the years. The opposite, I, like the vast majority of ppl here consider him an honest, serious professional and a good character to hang out with. I believe being upset made you take this further than it should be.

Julius is a mainstay at any show. I would even go as far as saying an Icon at any industry event. And good people.

Theo there is a 5 year history which you have not personally witnessed. He may be a great husband to Sandra, a wonderful father to his children, and a good friend to some of you ... but he has chosen to be a POS with me, and certain people I cooperate with, ever since he saw me bring a another pro photographer to the shows several years ago. People who have worked closely with him have complained about his demeanor to me.

I excused his behaviour, on the fact that Julius like many others was entering some financially challenging times. There was a series of shows he covered without sponsors. I could only imagine his fear when he saw someone else enter a market he had covered alone for all these years. His friends began to muscle the people who asked us to cover the shows. What his friends didnt know, was they were in fact old friends with the people they began to harass. The confusion was between the real names and monikers used in adult.

Here is the irony in all of it. We were not there to cut into his audience and advertisers, and even after bad things happened, I still went out of my way to reassure him that we are not entering his market. I did ask him to back off, or else I would become a competitor. Every show we crossed paths, I would say hello to him, and shake his hand, including YnotSummit.

There is so much more I could reveal, but I have committed myself to not disclose more than I have already, and to not bring heat on those that confided in me.

I agree with you Anthony 110%, he is a mainstay, and even I cannot imagine a show without Julius being around to cover it. He should continue to do what he does best for years more to come.

Normally I don't respond to you, but you piqued my interest. How long has Buster been shooting for you? As for competitor, I've never seen JFK act in this manner with Mikey B. In fact the opposite. He's bee around a long time as well.

Buster has been working with me 3 almost 4 years.

Mike B prints all of Julius magazines and calendars.

There he goes again, using my name to get views. Nothing worse than someone who is 2 faced, comes at you smiling and talks shit about behind your back for years. Posting about imagined conversations he had with me.

Hey Nalem: Go Fuck Yourself!

I've let Buster in my suite and parties to take pics. Nice enough guy. I'll try not to hold him working with you against him.
