Ice took a LOT of stress over this, and RIGHTFULLY deserves something for it. It was beyond the call of duty in my book.

hint hint eric

although Ice was JUST doing his job - this isn't JUST a job for him.

I"ve done dirty dirty things for money in this biz I'm not proud of....

dialers, naughty cross sales, mobile, installs, etc....

but i'm bankrupt so PFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we????????

I think it was a bad decision. I think the GFY owners were well aware of what some people thought of these tube sites and allowing TrafficJunky to skin the very board they contribute to is a stab in the back.

In the end money talks and I don't really give a shit as GFY gives me business and I got my own mouth to feed. I might have done the same, can't say for sure.

hahahahaha

meow meow meow

I don't really understand how GFY wants "battle true content theft in as many levels as possible" by doing business with tube8 but my English is pretty bad so I can only blame myself I suppose.

i don't see why something like this was not posted before the skin went up, or atleast posted sooner.

More like mooo moooo

Ask for forgiveness, not permission.

I'm just back from Amsterdam, there was some interesting debate about tube sites. Different ideas and opinions were exchanged in a respectful manner. Obviously, it's a super hot subject and some are very sensitive about it. But tubes are there, and they won't disappear anytime soon, whatever if you like it or not. I think everybody should try and look at it without personal feelings, and see how you can get some money out of these tubes.

The adult business has always been a step ahead from mainstream, it looks like with the tubes, the adult industry is getting blocked, while YouTube is cutting deals with all the content owners.

Anyway, was great meeting you all in Amsterdam :)

Well I felt for ICE as I posted on another forum ..the poor guy took a lot of shit for doing his job :2 cents:

What happened to the "data center move" ? Was It a ddos?

how many new clients did the tubes get?

How did you use the money?

Good question.

I could use the $100 free advertising that they were offering. Any of us could have. But it's more important to me to keep my ethics in place. It would be a smack in the face to all of the producers who get their content stolen. We have to unite or die and content theft is simply wrong. People who took that $100 sold their soul imo.

Edit: and so did GFY.

Sorry man,
I carry a LOT of respect for you, but I am just not buying this one at all.
Taking money for thiefs to stop thiefs seems to be a weak argument.
The fact that is has been posted after the fact makes the argument invalid all together.
However the unbanning was a good move.

i must be living under a rock because to this day i've still never visited or a consumer tube site and dont know where to begin, how they operate, and realistically i dont care

That's because you are a noob, and don't know your ass from a hole in the ground. By the way, your entire post was pointless. Nobody gives a shit what you don't know, or what sites you have or haven't been to.

Bullshit!

Healthy debate, use the proceeds to combat content theft :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Fucking lying scumbag!

"i swear officer i bought the drugs so i can get them off the street and turn in the drugs to the police!"

thank you for this explanation

Teen caught wanking story :Oh crap
No more no less.

Now bend over :1orglaugh

appreciated that at least a flying fuck was given on the opinions appeared here

:thumbsup

it is a nice spin though, i'll give you that. :1orglaugh

Ice should be written a bonus check equal to or greater than whatever the tubes paid to skin GFY. No matter what else comes of all this, he deserves a lot more than a thank you and a pat on the back.

Yeah, but that was because you were cruising the Red Light District the whole time, and hitting the Coffee Shops right? Not cause of this... :rasta ... j/k

Dont mind me, I am just jealous... been too long since I hit the Dam :waaaaahh

if you are a content producer and don't have your stuff copyrighted and concerned about tubes and copyright infringement, jump into my evolving thread:

Fight the intermission!

I love Ice!

:1orglaugh

Eric, you should run for public office! ;)

Because GFY didn't really give to shits, UNTIL they realized there where really going down the tubes.

:upsidedow

I don't post here very much, but I have to say this:

Ice, you are full of shit. This is nothing but massive back peddling on a scale never seen before. GFY thought they could run the skin like every other skin they ran, take the dump truck full of money, and call it a day.

You got caught, people are leaving this shithole like crazy, and now you suddenly re-write the back story to try to sound good?

No need to be so rude. Comparing him to a public official is just.. mean.

I don't buy the excuses for a minute. I think GFY made a terrible call here. But there's no need to compare them to Politicians.

So wait.. If I decide to run a illegal tube and steal your content to make myself profit, you will see no reason to bitch?


why do I think of this gu when I read this topic?

I feel sad for you and this explanation. It would have been better if you guys just said, "Yup... we took the money. So fucking what?!?" But coming up with this half ass story is pretty lame.
