I'm just a big fan of civility, and I am just curious to finally see somebody who has been uncivil finally meet face to face with people they have been that way to. I am honestly thinking that you are gonna be a much nicer human being than you came off to me a couple of weeks ago. I can understand the rudeness of the obvious trolls on this board who don't even make their living in this business...but guys like you who ARE in this business puzzle me to no end. It doesn't make you a thin dime to be abrasive. Matter of fact it will hurt your business in the long run. You might not think so... but people read this kind of thing and make judgements on a person's character. I don't know you, and have no idea how well you do with your company. But even if you're making a million dollars a year...you might be losing out on money because of a person mis-reading you from these kinds of posts.
I may be way off-base here, but I just don't see how entering threads and being malicious is helpful to anybodies business model.
I'm not attacking you by the way. I already am not too happy with you, but I'm not trying to attack you either. I'm just saying...I try to talk to people on here with a modicum of respect and in the same manner I would face to face. It's just good business.
With our luck...Claire will suddenly get a HUGE endorsement from Chiquita Bananas and then they will decide to put out a multi-million dollar budget to shoot hot Asian girls for the ads. :1orglaugh That would be my luck if I were in your shoes lol
Anyway, just ask Claire to her face. Her whole crew will be there and you can make an intelligent observation instead of just falling in line with some of the insanity on here. :)

What is uncivil about calling someone out that said they were going to post something on this board, and then they failed to keep their word and do so?
In case you haven't noticed, I am not real big on name-calling, etc., as so many are on this board. Occasionally, when provoked, or feeling especially passionate on a subject, I might blurt out something, but for the most part I do try to keep things civil.
I see you are still harboring some sort of grudge against me about my post in your, "What do you think about my Kino lights" thread, which was not from a couple of weeks ago (as you said above), but from six weeks ago.
Try re-reading what I wrote, this time from an objective perspective. I believe you will see that I was merely commenting on stretch marks (I acknowleged a lack of familiarity about the MILF niche, and that stretch marks are not considered a badge of honor in the niche I operate in).
I honestly didn't know until it was pointed out that Claudia was your wife, and I think I apologized not once, but twice, if I offended you or her personally, since that was not my intent - I was subjectively criticizing certain aspects of the photography, which you invited comment on.
I aknowledge that I come off as abrasive sometimes (you may not realize it, but you do too at times). My style of absurdist, dada, ambiguious, and frequently sarcastic humor (which I blame on too many years of reading Mad Magazine and National Lampoon), is intended more to provoke thought/comment and amuse, rather than to really hurt anyone or incite contempt towards me.
Most people that meet me in person, know me for the mostly mellow person that I am.
However, I think the people that generally find me most abrasive are often deserving of some criticism, and I admit, I do enjoy exposing charlatans. Many of the people that I have crossed with are now permanently banned from GFY, mostly for good reason. I try to be careful about whom I direct my most acerbic attention towards, and also try to make sure I line up my facts before commenting.
As a result, many people contact me about issues prior to them becoming public. In spite of this, even if I trust the source, I always try to take everything I hear with a grain of salt, and then do my own independent research.
Don't you find it odd, that the guy you refer to as Claire's "Boss", has not posted squat on any of this? He has a GFY account, has been a Member of GFY for years, has hundreds and hundreds of posts, yet he went into silent mode just around the same time Claire started posting late last year.
My purpose in life is not to make others miserable, but I will speak out when some person/company is acting in a less than ethical way, regardless as to whether they have bought me a drink at a show or not.
That is one of things that being an independent in this industry has afforded me (I'm neither a sponsor or affiliate).
Since you asked, I rarely talk about my income, since I consider that bad form, but I think if you see my ADG site alone (I have other sites as well), where I pay all of the exclusive talent (over 100+ models), if you know this business, it's easy to see that I have laid out hundreds of thousands of dollars on talent alone (I don't do content trades, or work with guys that just want to get laid for free). Still, I've managed to be profitable for the entire 8+ years I've been in the adult business.
Am I always right? Hell no, but I sure make an effort to be.
There is quite a bit of info circulating about xxxBizTV off the boards that you are apparently unaware of - that they promised certain things, took people's money, and didn't deliver as promised, and then didn't refund the money, even though the services weren't delivered. It doesn't involve me directly, and I have no firsthand knowledge, so for the most part I have remained on the sidelines of all that.
For various reasons, I suspect because people still wish to be paid back, they haven't made things public yet. Apparently you are not in that loop, if you were, then you might be more understanding of my posts.
I've said it before, I don't think that Claire is the main culprit in all of this. However, she is letting herself be used as a pawn (if it's even her posting).
Why her Boss, as you call him, stays in hiding is totally beyond me...
Then there is "German Dom of the Year 2006", Claire Muller, who is an associate and shares an office with Claire and Mr. "ex head of Sony Asia" (even though Claire apparently no longer cares about that, even though she made the claim in the first place).
Try doing a Google search to see if indeed "Christina Muller" was voted the Dominatrix of the Year in Germany (translate Dom and Dominatrix of the Year into German even). I would think a person of that stature, with such an accolade, would have lots of photos and DVDs floating around on the net. I'm not saying (yet) that she isn't, but in my cursory search, I couldn't find a single shred of evidence to support that claim.
Anyway, I've rambled on enough. Unfortunately, I won't be attending Cybernet Expo, as I am way too busy (I have two new sites launching soon, among other things), but I will be at Rock the Ball, which I am a major sponsor of (I'm supplying the headline band and at least 15 Go-Go/Pole Dancers), since I want everyone to have fun while visiting my part of the country (you, Claudia, Claire and company, included).
And, just who is this Claire4u character? Surely not, self-proclaimed, non-content/talent, Claire... :winkwink:
I doubt that I will have much time to chat with anyone at Rock the Ball, since I will be pretty occupied with ensuring my parts of the show go off well (I am employing/managing over 30 people that night), but feel free to say hello if you attend the event.
