That has a nice ring to it.
But seriously, how do you go from chatting with a bot to being an expert on the industry???
Seriously, you think that everyone's sales are down because we are not working hard enough? tubes, torrents, the shitty economy,
none of that has anything to do with it?
is that what you are saying?
Simple logic disproves that.

I'd also like to say that congrats to you for working harder and actually making some money in this biz
,
But the fact of the matter is, no matter how hard you are working now and however much income you are getting from it, you are still not profiting as much as you could be if it was not for the problems many have described in the posts above.
Everyone's sales are down, from paysites, to content producers, to the card processors. There is a huge chunk of pie missing that people can get for free now.
That money is HISTORY.
None of us will ever see it again.
and it's just going to get worse.Comment

Your numbers are wrong.
TORRENTS, REPRESENT AT LEAST 80% of the online porn Illegal downloads, via azureus, and file sharing via RapidShare, depositfiles, etc.
Tubes are NOTHING when you compare them with TORRENTS and File Sharing via forums. I repeat, Tubes are nothing in comparisson to Torrents and File Sharing. More than 90% of the webmasters have the inverse picture there and subestimate torrents and rapidshare links via forums.. And over estimate tubies.
Since most people in the biz have no fucking idea about this, then we are FAR AWAY to even TRY to solve the problem.

Are you fucking illiterate? You're asking me what I said? Why do I need to say it twice? Are you that fucking stupid that I need to provide you with clarification?
Apparently you do need clarification, since you completely got what I said all wrong.. Nice of you to add things I didn't even say or suggest.. That's typical of you.Comment

no, 4chan is bigger, but they already know the sauce for all the free pronYou fucking retards are the ones telling the surfers about the tubes by constantly announcing and posting them here... GFY is the LARGEST PORN SURFERS FORUM IN THE WORLD, yet you dumb fucks find it a good idea to alert everyone the creation of yet another source of fucking free porn.
!
your other point is irrelevant to the tube/torrent issue though, so you say that you have to work like a dog for 18 hours a day, imagine how rich you would be if sales weren't slow? your working 18 hours a day doesn't change the reality of the situation, it just means that you are working like a dog for what you can squeeze out of it, good for you, but it doesn't change the fact that the tubes etc have decimated the industry

Correct, HOWEVER, I realize that bitching about it on GFY isn't going to change any of it, so.. I work harder and smarter to overcome it, because this is the ONLY solution.no, 4chan is bigger, but they already know the sauce for all the free pron

NOBODY is going to change the reality for you.
Yes tubes have an impact on online adult entertainment sales.
Yes the economy has an impact on sales.
Yes torrents have an impact on sales..
BUT, are they to BLAME!! Who is to blame? Only YOU!! If your sales go down, you find a way to make them go back up.. plain and simple... Nobody is going to give you the answers nor the solutions to the problems you face.. Only YOU can figure out what will increase your profits.. bitching about it isn't going to accomplish anything,,, Especially on the very forum where some of the biggest players in the biz ARE THE ROOT of the problem.Comment

Would I be making more if tubes and torrents didn't exist? Bet your fucking ass I would... but that's the past.. That's not the reality, so, in order to overcome it, I must work harder and smarter in order to overcome this obstacle that was put in my way.
2007 was much more than 2008.. Many things had an impact.. however, the changes I made within my methods will make 2009 a record year.
We all can sit here and complain.. we always do... but look what's being accomplished....
NOTHING!Comment

You are still a clown dude:Are you fucking illiterate? You're asking me what I said? Why do I need to say it twice? Are you that fucking stupid that I need to provide you with clarification?
Apparently you do need clarification, since you completely got what I said all wrong.. Nice of you to add things I didn't even say or suggest.. That's typical of you.
You said quote: "Tubes are not to blame, nor is the economy... YOU ARE TO BLAME!"
Did you not say that?
You are the one fucked up! (still) after 7 years

Anyone can clearly see that I did indeed say exactly that, but unfortunately, your literacy is a problem since you now a second time have come here to ask me what I said.Last edited by spacedog; 01-17-2009, 05:22 PM.Comment

There is no reason for the consumer to whip out the credit card for porn anymore. Why should they? everything is free!
Wake up and run your business like a business before it's too late. Take a lesson or two from the corporate world.
This business is packed to the gills with short sighted people (tube site operators that allow user uploads, torrents, forced cross sales, hidden cross sales etc..) that will either piss off the customer so they don't return or continue to give away free long length videos to the masses in hopes of gaining a few extra sales to cams/dating sites at the expense of the industry. In essence..they are willing to kill off any chance business longevity for a quick buck. Why would anybody pay for it if you can get it free?
Because the simpletons refuse to look past the next billing cycle, the only fix is to be self regulation possibly through some kind of an elected council and a return to censored tours/previews of old.
But...there would always be the cheaters. They would have to be shunned and nobody should work with them. Don't sell them content, hosting, etc..
Unfortunately this biz can't or won't do it. It is doomed to let greed and continued stupidity overrule common sense and ultimately this biz will consume itself. No government interaction needed.
I'm done venting....carry on.
