    One time announcement: Leaving the industry

    I've been working with online porn for almost 6 years now, and it's been a fun time. However, I'm now at the point where porn is starting to get in the way of my other endeavors, with regards to both time and association.

    Simply put, I was forced to decide between spending my life reading 1000-page books, writing tons upon tons of essays, papers, etc and having seemingly endless discussions about minor details with dull old professors, or making craploads of money for looking at hot naked chicks all day. The choice was obvious

    So, bye all.

    And cheers

      Not gonna sell anything. Most of my sites don't really require maintenance, so I'm just gonna stop spending time on porn. If all goes well, the income will only slowly drop, and it'll take quite some time before it stops altogether.

                      Goodbye and good luck. It's sad to loose a GFY poster with a
                      fully-functioning brain. They're few and far between.

                                                        I won't be back though, studying philosophy, writing and some activist projects take up way too much of my time. Even though the money from porn is nice - or rather, extremely, very, ridiculously fucking nice - some things are simply more important than money.

And I wonder what activist projects you are talking about? But: good for you, I hope you'll never regret it!
