Good move, whatever the reason.

about time

Good move guys.

MaDalton 05-27-2005 02:55 PM

i'm glad they did the move to get rid of those sites. i know the guys at MVC are standup people, just doing some stupid decisions at the beginning which they probably regret now. but they treated me always well, so i will give them the chance to build their reputation again.

We would like to thank the GFY community for voicing your opinion, and we welcome your comments and questions on the matter.

This is a perfect example of how the adult industry polices itself. :thumbsup
Good Work!

Good move!

Why did they do the sites in the first place? Because they are not in the US, and the majority of their surfers are not in the US. MVC is a huge processor for European countries. They are one of the few that can handle just about any form of payment imaginable. In Europe there are literally hundreds of different debit cards, debit accounts, etc and MVC was the first to add them all.

So why did they do it though? Because in many other countries (particualarly in Europe) these sites are actually low key. As in softcore to the max. In some countries it is ok to post full nudity pics of children. They simply don't have a concept of it being CP. So when sites come along where the girls are still clothed it is almost rediculous to them. But to us in America it is only a step away from illegal (actually much of it is illegal because we have laws against children being spread eagle even when they are clothed).

So lets stop asking if a thumbs up is actually a flip-off in Japanese culture or a wave is actually a fuck-you in Norway and be thankful they stopped and now you all have an awesome way to collect funds from fucktards in countries with an antiquated debit system!

Look at the big picture folks, now you can work with these people and open up markets you couldn't touch before!

2) As I have explained in earlier threads, we had to slowly phase out these merchants, lest we risk excessive chargebacks etc... If we would have killed their billing on the spot, the merchants could have potentially asked their clients to file a chargeback. We have been getting rid of these merchants slowly for months already.

You mention you were phasing them out, for risk of charge backs, however as soon as Nats announced dropping you, you dropped all the sites immediately. Are you not still worried about chargebacks? and will this effect the stability of your company? That's alot of money to lose over night.

Don't take my comments the wrong way btw. I tip my hats to you for the bold move, it's not an easy move for any company to kiss that kind of revenue good bye over night.

We have been in business for 3 years; if we were not built for the long term, we would not have gotten rid of these merchants. With regards to your comment on our education, that is patently false. If you want to talk further with us about our longevity, come drop by our booth at InterNext, or come see us at the show in San Diego.

We stand behind our name. We regret that we made some poor choices, but we are here to fix it.


Three years in business, catering to very questionable sites. Glad you got your funding to come clean. And having a booth at InterNext is really creditability? :upsidedow

AdultMovies.bz 05-27-2005 06:26 PM

MVC are standup guys, what they were processing for is not illegal but an immoral neche, they have always been there for me and I'll continue processing with them as I have been for the past year or so :)

Good move MVC!

warlock667 05-27-2005 07:49 PM

Nothing to do with GFY
 
This has nothing to do with GFY...

Last week a bunch of sites they processed for got shut down by the feds for KP, so now they're scared. Has nothing to do with doing the right thing!

warlock667 05-27-2005 08:06 PM

Actually for the record, I can't find the article that I thought referenced it, so I may be mistaken. Although I believe the pressure is on these types of sites more than before, and it would be interesting for them to address that as part of their decision to stop processing them.

airplaneBUCKS 05-27-2005 08:37 PM

You shouldn't have started, that makes you know better then the CP perverts!

Bullshit

Saying a under18 non-nude non-hardcore modeling site is CHILD PORN is as stupid as saying an over18 non-nude site like this is hardcore:

Sure don't process for it, but don't call it "child porn".

Smokey,

We have not had IBill as an advertiser in well over a year. If you are seeing something I am not aware of please let me know.
