200........

Well, don't know if this has to do with Hegre contacting google or what, but my domain is back in Google. Only pages that were affected by the complaint were removed. I get the following message at the bottom of the page when I search for my domain:

has always been like this. no?
problem was that a lot of mainpages got deleted, that referenced to galleries, galleries were left alone, which kind of prooves that p10 wasn't in it to protect "his copyrights", just targetting sites that promoted competitors with the same models

In response to a complaint we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 3 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint that caused the removal(s) at ChillingEffects.org.

For my search, but the three pages are 1)My main page, 2) My main forum page, 3) My main WTF? Gallery page.

But, if you search like this "site:theadviceasshole.net marketa", the pages that were the reason for my site to be removed are coming up. >:(

Don't look for any logic in this case, there isn't any...

Extreme Frustration!
 

Extreme Frustration!

I still receive emails like this one.
They come in at the rate of 3, to 5 / day.

Hi - I am the webmaster of ........com which is an affiliate site of Met Art via ccbill - I am writing to enquire whether you hold exclusive copyright to your images and to check that none of your images which i use to promote your site could be subject to a DCMA action - There is currently an issue with ..... images i understand and i am taking these images offline but want to check that your images aren't facing a similar problem.

i would greatly appreciate you feed back - regards Tony

No comment...
No only damaged by the actions of a few, but also having to answer these emails.

Looks like people don't read your newsletters ;) ...

Sounds like a shot at a monopoly...

...And others don't get it... :-)

Addendum:

Sounds like a lot of people don't read GFY either... :1orglaugh

Is this still the case and is there an approximate time-frame on when I can look forward to seeing my site listed on Google again?

fuck they removed me too

Welcome to the club :Oh crap

Can anyone tell me where to send an email or who to call on the phone to speak to someone at google about getting sites re-indexed?

Yeah need to know that too.

They fucked me too, the fucktard fucks. Banned: cayos.com
Although maybe technically they had probable cause... but that's hardly the point.
Fuckers. I'm with any kind of anarchy.

Zini.

read the rules of this board.. 50 links in your sig is not acceptable

I talked to Hegre about this. They made perfect 10 send 2 counter notifications to google (last one, one week ago). They also talked with Google's legal deparment but they are processing things slow (remember it also took them weeks after p10 inital letter to take the regretted actions).

rrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh could somebody big finally take out P10, bust them up bad, sue their pants of and finally make this annoying Ph.D *sshole sell or loose P10 in the settlement

maybe a nice side mag for Playboy, the models are gorgeous enough, but everything else stinks

has anybody tried to contact P10 and hear anything back?

Emotions are fine. But this will only be fixed with patience and using our heads. Crying on boards aint helping a bit. It's in google's hands now and no matter how frustrating it is for us, a bunch a of adult webmasters is probably not on top of their to-do list.

Top of the morning to you, Mr Smokey.

Zini.

I will not comment on the allegations, discussions, drama, whatever here - - - just want to do a shameless PLUG!

5 years ago we did this FLASH webdesign for Perfect10 - I just though of it and thought to myself that I HAD TO show peeps as I think this design is pretty good flash wise to be 5 years old!

Enjoy the rest of your discussion...

:pimp

Count me in

<-- tries to keep this thread alive. In case something changes: put it in here pls

So let me get this straight Perfect 10 just eliminated a wide swath of competitors and no oen is going to do anything about it? :Oh crap

Looks like it, thank god I never dealt with them

That Perfect 10 guy is genious. Wonder who is going after next, he probably wont take on some of the big guys on GFY.

A few weeks ago when all this started. I did all the normal things. Contacted Hegre, Norm, Google, etc..

Then I remembered a regular visitor from my site. A copyright attorney. I submitted to him the responses from Norm, Hegre (never heard back from Google) and he advised that I file the counter notice, since I had nothing to hide. I did that last Monday. It's been 7 working days.

No word yet and my main pages are still not showing up on Google. My attorney 'friend' tells me legally, Google has 14 days to either respond or re-instate my site(s).

At any rate, if the 14 days come and go, like I think they will, then I have exhausted all my capabilities and will gladly join this lawsuit (if you guys choose to follow through with it)

Let me know.

Just my two cents

Good luck, you'll need it.

On The + Side
 

On the plus side, MET-ART has made the FHM UK list of the 50 best websites in the World...I believe only 3 adult sites made the list.
Title: 50 ADDICTIVE WEBSITES - 50 KILLER WEBSITES: Discover Exactly Why The Internet Was Invented.

We will add the cover to the free hosted galleries in a few hours. It should help affiliates sales. We're already feeling the effect, sales are VERY good.

http://www.met-art.com/FHM.jpg

not sure what that has to do with the thread...:disgust

Yes, I guess Met uses this topic as a chance to PR himself...
Making a profit out of someone else's failures doesn't seems a good idea here...

No MET-ART, as many affiliates, lost revenues because of someone's not so innocent mistake(s), and while that someone was making these mistakes, on another magazine, namely FHM, something good was happening, and since the day the magazine came out, affiliates sold 10% more, which probably makes up for the mistakes made by others (Again, not us). What's best, it did not end up screwing affiliates, but It's just good news, and it's showing two different results on a similar topic. I'm still livid at our losses, and most of all, the affiliates writing us, thinking that we made the same mistakes, or were involved in this crap, and probably some of them, dumped us because someone (God knows who!?!), implied that we were sold outs too, although WERE DID NOT...

Someone else's failures had an effect on us. Not only we did not make the same mistake, but we're offering affiliates, and 90% of them are common affiliates, a chance of making back some losses.

At least let us do this. It's giving back some lost money to EVERYONE, not just us.

I think It's less out of context than you think.

Count me in :mad:

www.BasicallyBabes.com

Hegre affiliate who simply links to their Free Hosted Galleries (with cropped thumbs) and totally got removed from Google.

Truly fucked up :mad: :mad:

I think you forgot one... basicallybabes.com ... still banned by Google for linking to your FHG's :mad:

People given up on this ? :(
I can be reached at icq 226860509

MET-ART with all due respect you need to contact Google directly and expose this guy, dont let this filter down to your affiliates like this.

I'm banned just for linking to an other gallery :mad:

just noticed this when checking my backlinks today...

In response to a complaint we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint that caused the removal(s) at ChillingEffects.org.
