In all of your years as a webmaster, what's the biggest program flop you've seen? - GoFuckYourself.com

03-02-2004, 09:43 PM

There have been tons to fall for whatever reason....There have been up and comers who have died due to cheating or stealing....There have also been a few billing processors that have left us in the cold.

Which program/processor flop irks you the most?

when Hollywood Whores was new... during the explosion of free trials...

they paid per signup, but once it was time for payout they couldn't afford it because the program was all new.

GOOD PLAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anybody remember the fall of WSB? A lot of people lost a lotttt of money. The silver lining was Triple X Cash's actions taken by paying us all back. The amount they paid out of pocket definitly wasn't small!

slapass · 03-02-2004, 10:03 PM

Insite Adult stung lots of us on this board. Biggest that I have seen but just shows I have not been around long and it does not happen often.

SyPro

One of the first companies who allowed you
to except credit cards without a merchant account.

They were one of the very first to be axed
by Visa back in 1999/2000

I think they are back with another name and
hidding.

I think the biggest whacked out job was the closure

of www.Busty-Amateurs.com

Over 14,000 members, 17,000 webmasters
and grossed over 600k a month.

Closed by my former employer who found god

Did I forget to mention that I own the only
copy of ALL the members who every joined BA.
it's for sale, make an offer

i remember a thing called sextab that kicked fuggin ass on pay and then it disappeared, they said they were gonna come out all new or some shit and never came back, it was that menu that slid out from the left of the browser and had bannerbuttons in it. i think the whole program only lasted a few months that was back in 98 heh

Oh please, spare us the bullshit on that list again, ok?

My vote goes for the collapse of DMR for the most financial pain it caused in the industry.

It just goes to show, if you're in the right place at the right time with a little simple know how, you can get rich fast.

I had lunch with him and told him to start an affiliate program with Epoch and get model releases. 3 months later he's bringing in big money. Soon after I started my consulting business.

Joel, I still feel the pain from those lost revenues. I feel ya. All he had to do was stick with the plan. I hope he found what he was looking for at least.

One day he'll wake up and go back to being the same pervert and wish he had all of that money. I mean, he loved looking at big naturally busted women. I can't imagine you can just turn a switch off in your head and turn directions like that.

Oh well.

Babenet or whatever it was called

Lensman · 03-02-2004, 10:31 PM

Great thread title, very thought provoking.

I think a flop is different than a failure, like WSB or LikeWhoa. A flop is more like a new venture that burned out fast, like some of the ones that have already been mentioned in this thread.

chodadog · 03-02-2004, 10:35 PM

What was it.. Xstreamcash. Gary's program? That one was really surprising.

CDSmith · 03-02-2004, 10:38 PM

Trafficinc sucked in a lot of webmasters about 4 years ago. I know they got me for $300 before I termed their links.

I know what you mean. I should have phrased it differently. On a side note, these are some interesting responses! It's fun traveling down memory lane!

The biggest one that hurt me, and i am sure alot of people here was when DMR collapsed. I lost a lot of money when that happened.

What?? Please point me to where I can find more about this story.

I was offline between July 1st and November 15th, so I guess this must have happened then.

Xpics did many many bad things, but they did pay and for some people they paid incredible.

They were also very successfull even if they didnt do some shady things to inflate their sales even more.

Apparently, yes. I did some searches and found all the drama. He fucked over va2k for a few grand through an ebay scam, and then completely disappeared, even severing ties with his good friends like amp. his host shut down his sites a short while later as the bill was unpaid. he didn't payout his affiliates.

XPaysEvan · 03-03-2004, 03:16 AM

I can't believe you remember our Sextabs program - ha - I even forgot about that. We took it down because browsers were so antiquated back then.

Maybe we will add Sextabs back to the options at http://Sextabs.com
