Guba on Adultwhoswho and Review sites?

Well since we're discussing it, how come GUBA is on these sites?

AdultWhosWho

and some of the major review sites, Rabbits Reviews, The Best Porn and I've heard of a few others. I am not trying to cause shit here, I'm just wondering why they're allowing this crap on their sites? We've tried bringing it to Rabbits attention on another board, but nothing has been said.

Aren't these places supposed to be helping the industry?

well hopefully alot more people will too, like I said we've tried bringing it to Rabbits attention on another board but nothing has been said yet. We actually got the name banned from a major board after enough us complained about it.

GUBA = A bunch of thieves


they're members are paying for access to a usenet containing content from a lot of sponsors in this industry not only your promo content but your members area content... so how does it make you feel that you are losing money to a bunch of low life thieves

and god only knows what else you can access via their usenet...

they are the scum of the web...

I don't understand why the review sites are endorsing this madness, it really pisses me off! And I don't understand why no-one's saying anything about it to them .......

I don't understand why the idiots here waited 8 fucking years to complain at this level. Oh wait, they skinned the board, It's good drama for a few days.

dude if we wanted your opinion about this, we'd give it to you, you're an idiot and you've proved that on more than one occasion today.

Sponsors should include in their terms they don't allow promoting of usenet sites on the same pages as they are promoted.
That would solve some of the problem.

well I hope someone comments,

because in the review site aspect this just doesn't really make much sense, without paysites reviewers have nothing to review, and having guba on their sites isn't benefiting them in any way really, once you think about it, they're losing sales that could have went to a real paysite. vs what Guba is doing.

either way sponsors don't allow the use of their members area content for promotion... if the promo content was the only thing available on the usenet that would be one thing but you have some of the sponsors entire members area's ripped on there... basically giving it all away for free...

I specifically asked one major sponsor if they allowed their content to be used and advertised on sites that promote GUBA and they said they had no problem with it. When I pointed out how their exclusive content was being posted there and access to it required a fee, they responded with something along the lines of "I don't see the problem."

And Jade, I believe one of the review sites you listed there has a deal with GUBA in that surfers pay just $10 to join instead of $14, if they join from the review site.

Why join a legitimate paysite when for ten lousy bucks you can access content from virtually every paysite out there ......

Well Pam I think that's pretty ridiculous that a sponsor wouldn't see it as being a "problem" and I heard there was a deal with "said" review site about the $10 membership versus the $14, but had heard nothing more about it, so I wasn't sure if that was accurate or not still. And even though we've tried bringing it to that particular review site's attention, nothing has been said at all.

well I know Pam does not list them on her review site, I also know of one other review site that also refuses to list them on theirs as well. And glad to hear you won't be listing them either.

Did the sponsor own the content ? Did the sponsor mind that it's content could probably be found in Guba for $10, so no need for it's affiliates to settle for possibly lower conversions and just push Guba instead ?

The problem is not GUBA indexing the content. The problem is people posting the content to usenet, p2p etc.

No, the problem is scummy, skanky webmasters promoting it and making surfers realize they can find cheaper porn than in our paysites.

By promoting "300,000 new images a day" which is sheer bullshit, it hurts the rest of us.

IF they add 300,00 images and videos a day, then why do they claim to have just 2 million images and videos?

The math is skewed.

The problem is both.

If someone rips off your car stereo and hands it to a fence, does that absolve the fence, too?

No.

Its still dealing in stolen goods.

I can't believe this. No one who calls themselves adult webmaster should be promoting this shit. Is the quick buck that important when in the long run programs like Guba are going to ruin it for adult webmasters.

I've said this ad nauseum on another board after another webmaster kept pushing and pushing and pushing GUBA. The board listened and banned the word GUBA from the board. He still pushes it, promising newbies he will help them get traffic if they just sign up under him so he can earn his Happy Meal money of 3 bucks. He proudly boasts how he is selling something to people that they can get for free.

Is it worth $7 to lose your self-respect and stab your fellow webmasters in the back? There is also the contributory copyright infringement issue by using GUBA content that doesn't belong to them.

Aly, you guys ROCK! Rick is a good guy and I'm SO glad you did this.

She belongs to that board as well Pam, but I from what we conversed about today, I believe she missed alot of what was going on when it first unravelled, just as it appears so many others did as well unfortunately. But at least now it's coming into fruition and more and more people are becoming aware of it and taking a stance and that's a positive step in the right direction.

And I'm really glad Aly and Rabbit are listening to our concerns as well.
