Good luck on everything going forward. You have always been one of the guys I admired in this business so it is good to see you are going to be sticking around.

Kane, you were one of my oldtime submitters, webmasters like you built my site...

Congrats on the sale and best wishes on whatever you decide to do next.

thanks Amelia, for your personality and your business ...

I look forward to reading the next Shemp/ ???/ started thread about "One door closes and another opens, or something along those lines"

Enjoy the break, but know, it will be short lived....you have been hammering out updates and submissions for so long, the mind will only begin to think of other ways to keep the hands busy! On to the next great thing.:cool-as-a


Much RESPECT to one of the BEST! I am truly happy for your decision, and like wise, thankful for all you have done.:glugglug

Thanks Mark, you'll be the first to know (well maybe the second) if i take on any new ventures.. :)

adultmobile 09-05-2012 03:40 PM

Congrats, I'm one of those who had account in old times but as silent user :)

Remember circa 2003 some multi tgp submitter softwares... I registered in GFY at that time to hire a guy to help submitting the galls. Vaguely remember me and those guys doing hosted galls to promote our sites of the time (russian girls using Nokia phones as a dildos, silly project), and the Shemp was in top of list with thehun's, was list rank by traffic or worth to submit, quite forgot the whole process, last submit must have been in 2004.

I remember first hearing the name Shemp on one of Doc's radio shows, probably right around 2000-2001... listened and took notes on how to make money with TGPs.

fast forward a decade... Sleazy sold, Shemp sold. certainly the end of an era.

Best of luck with everything.

DK 09-05-2012 04:30 PM

A true pioneer.
I have never submitted to Shemp but always admired you as a peer.

Best of luck to all you do from here out.
Turn the page ...

Orgasmics 09-05-2012 04:40 PM

Congratulations!

Truly the end of an era... somewhat bittersweet. I thoroughly enjoyed the years I had the privilege of working for... and with you. The career highlight of my life.

Let me know when you want to work on something new. ;)

GonZo 09-05-2012 05:00 PM

Nigga Pleeeease :pimp :helpme :error

Shit right? Can you then tell me, why they lost so much traffic please?

Lol, those sites are one big mess made of links and text ..and that has been like that for ages. I forgot another one, Elephantlist.com .. I dont wonder these sites started losing surfers, as the layout and content is horrible, clicking through 150 links to get some galls with shitty 4x15 sec videos or pictures, well being a horny surfer my choice would be obvious.

What exactly changed at Library of thumbs? That they have tube links now? The colors and the text are the same. Oh come on.. This is not 2003.

Those at MadThumbs got it early, the owner of XNXX got it early, those at Sunporno.com got it early (well not that early) .. shame that some guys simply wont get it :winkwink:


I wanna cry when I see pinkworld.com .. :1orglaugh

Wagerboy 09-05-2012 05:06 PM

wow congrats...Used to submit to you back in the late 90's if I recall. Great traffic, thanks for the listings. Those were good times, TGP submits. Best of luck with the future.:thumbsup

Dead 09-05-2012 05:07 PM

You know the industry is screwed when Shemp goes for the long thread gift off GFY...

One of the greatest TGPs ever! Congrats to you Shemp, may this door closing open many more for you. And Sleazy too!

We finally got our groove on in mainstream, and life is good. Still running on much inspiration from the greatness we have learned from here in adult. The quiet school of numbers has worked pretty good. Gotta scale! xoxoxo

the hun is going to be the last one standing. shemp is a nice guy but the tube sites caused tgp sites to go out of business. people like shemp, sleazy dream, thehun never evolved and their traffic slipped away everyday. shemp just decided to sell it while it still had some value, on the course it was going i bet it wouldn't be worth much in the next couple years. however the new owners probably will make it into a tube site and make it profitable again. i never understood why all of these tgp sites never did that, but to the contrary they did nothing and died a slow death.
