Oh, I 100% agree. I was just being slightly flippant, since that is the excuse/apology we see more often than not. :)

Bump - I want to keep this on the front page until it is resolved.

Hope you guys are having a great weekend :)

Welcome to my world Dean. It is an epidemic. I was in Vegas and saw my pics on BILLBOARDS and Taxi's. The best thing you can do is send everything to the (c) office when you first edit it. Then when you go after these assholes not only do you get a judgment of around $10k per image (per usage), but they will likely have to pay YOUR attorneys fees. The trick is to send them a C+D first by registered mail (better yet Fed-EX). Then when they ignore it you can go after them for WILLFUL infringement.

I don't ever let anyone fuck with my pics anymore. Neither should you or anyone making the effort to produce quality content.

I am not an attorney and the opinions I express are solely my own. Seek professional legal help etc etc....

Thanks Jay - shooting you an email.....

O'rly?

:Oh crap:disgust

so many thieves lately, rough times ahead.

who cares about a damn image, the tubes have hours and hours of video content.

need a transformation on that case!

Bump for Dean.

I care! And so does every producer who spends their money creating them.

We don't expect you to care though so have a great day :thumbsup

I feel like you do now often dude. And in our case it's tons of video content.. pretty messed up. And the best of luck on resolving it. just taking the image down shouldn't be enough indeed.

bump!

Go go gadget!

bump for Sharkys rogue designers.

how sad

they offer it in their promo area

It's this type of attitude that created the stealing of content which led to the present day mess with tube sites.
I will assume by your statement, you must approve of stealing content that does not belong to you, even if it is just one image.....stealing is stealing, Period!

Bump :thumbsup

Go away kid


Copyright infringement is WRONG. Especially by those that are supposedly working along side you. "Hey who cares about the guys that rob a 7-11, there's people robbing BANKS!" :upsidedow

You'd care, if you were the one who put in the dozens upon dozens of hours building up a business, recruiting models, investing in equipment, developing your own talent as well as an eye for seeing it in others, etc etc, then only to find that the quality product you produced due to all that sweat and toil was stolen by some thief who is now profiting from YOUR work.

But one would have to have a reasonable semblance of business acumen as well as knowing right from wrong in order to understand all that.

Some here may find the issue in threads like this "no big deal". I find it despicable. And why people who have an otherwise good name in the adult business world would let this go and willfully trash their own reputations by ignoring the problem and not taking steps to make things right immediately is beyond me.

:Oh crap

HornyMatches is really bad. We've caught 100s of banners and galleries of theirs with our content. We've approached them over and over. A real pain in the ass.

Damn Sharky I didn't realize you work with HornyMatches. That may be great or horrible. I've always thought and known you to be a good guy so I'm hoping this works out great ;)
We had a bunch of our content removed a few months ago. I believe there is still a bunch up. I need all my Twistys content removed from banners, ads, and galleries on hornymatches now and moving forward.

Hey Sharky have the release for this banner?

You know Dean a good approach would be to go after the sites using the banner. If I was promoting a company and I was approached by a content producer that by promoting that company's banner I was breaking the law guess which sponsor I'd drop in a hurry?

Have a license for this one?

Yep I know. I've got to run out. I could post stolen stuff all day long from Horny Matches. Hopefully Sharky will do the right thing and clear out all the stolen material and make sure it doesn't happen moving forward.

Shap, Sharky is the guy that I introduced you too when you and I met up at the convention. I've known him for many years and he's a straight up guy. How he could get mixed up in a mess like this is beyond me. I wish him the best though - this is not good :Oh crap

Christ the rabbit hole they've dug for themselves goes deep.

Someone's going to be wishing he took the blue pill.

look at it all, wow.

pimpmansion is now offically shitlisted too bad too i was thinking about switching my dating to them.

It's sad indeed.

To the top

Dean can you call me asap so we can solve this. I'm one of the owners of hornymatches. Please mail me your phone number [email protected] ?

Dean, I have been trying to reach you about this. your old # doesn't work.

my cell is 813-340-8060. please call me or send me your number

As obvious by your statement you produce nothing original yourself.

Sharky take care of Dean's problem first. It's the easy one. When you guys are done with that mess I want my shit completely off your tools. Using my content in banners and even using my pics free hosted galleries? That's just plain theft.

In fact you want to do me a favor? send me at mrshap at twistys dot com the url to your free hosted galleries. I know you guys try to keep that url hidden since it's loaded with stolen content. Send me that link and I'll let you know just how much you guys have stolen from me.

Btw I hope you licensed your matrix content as well

Can't you just sue them? Those are man-made creatives with someone else's content.
