Those were the days (of business on this board)

[Paul Markham]

i am paging PM. must appear thread for him
anyway good summary.

Thank you for the PM.

Plus people lie when trying to fling abuse, like stocktrader.

This board reflects the industry, it isn't anything else but a reflection of an industry changing. Most of the good guys have gone or going, many have to work hard. Leaving a few no no nick clowns.

They banned people for having a "Go Fuck Yourself" attitude to pretty it up for Playboy.

They locked down registrations and made people contact an admin that never answered ICQ to post or even read the forums.

Half of the industry left because they swore "I will never do business with tube sites or anyone that does business with tube sites!" (See Steve Lightspeed)

Some old timers quit focusing on making money and instead decided to grrrrrr get even with those dirty porn leachers by suing them.

Some card bangers bought up a lot of good programs right at the peak then abused the fuck out of their customers and the webmasters that sent those customers.

The economy exploded a few different times sending many back to work.

Aside from a few programs are still doing the same things they were doing in 2004 even though the landscape is completely different. Adapt or die was never more fitting.

A surprising number of affiliates that have been here for years still have no understanding of how this industry works, even the basic stuff.

Epassporte probably squashed a lot of third world webmasters and definitely squashed a lot of those that chose to hide their cash for one reason or another.

Certain people attack those that are successful here to the point that they make entire threads unreadable, killing further discussion. P.M. especially loves doing this, see his lectures to Shap.

A couple of companies bought up a lot of programs taking a lot of 'important' figures out of the industry and off of the boards.

There's probably a few more reasons but I'm tired.

Probably because half the threads have nothing to do with the adult industry, DVTimes etc posting unrelated news articles constantly

It gets tiresome having to weed through that amount of shit on a daily basis

Well if you didn't jump on spamming any thread about any billing company posted here and instead act a little more professional then you might get more business.
