Any Australian webmasters here?
 

the YanksCash crew is flying to Australia for 10 days and we will mainly be in Sydney and wanted to hook up for drinks or a night out with any adult webmasters out there in the land down under ;)

reply to this thread and ill hit you up.

There are lots of us here - although we seem to be spread all over the country.

do you shoot content there? or mainly promote other sites, i heard porn is a big NO NO in australia.. can you califiy..

It's winter in Australia right now. The drop bears are hibernating.

hmm.. whats a drop bear? :) content? :) what companies are located in sydney..

Shooting content here in Oz has it's problems but it's not totally illegal - you just have to pick the state that you do the shooting in. There are several large sites that shoot their own content here in Australia but most of those guys won't be around for a few hours yet.

Just keep bumping the thread and I'm sure they'll see it.

These days we do text only so I'm a bit out of touch with that side of things.

If you want to know about drop bears do a search on Google - they're nasty buggers and the only thing that will keep you safe from them is a strong diet of vegemite. It works a bit the same way as garlic does with werewolves.

Start eating vegemite about 30 days before you come over and you shouldn't have any problems.

No, no, no... you have to cover your face in vegemite.. not consume it. It's the only way to keep the drop bears away....

:)

what dates will you be in sydney? I may stop by & say g'day :)

here's a bump for the late sleeping Sydneysiders :)

Hey Steve, do you know which states are "safe" to shoot in? :)

You really have to wonder why so much of the industry in Oz is around Brisvegas...

Fishwick in Canberra. :winkwink:

icq me 1442937 will hook ya up in sydney

Don't listen to "TOS" .... bugger didn't even offer me a beer! I honestly think he's not even really Australian .... quite possibly a Kiwi! :winkwink:

yeah brisbane is better and the gold coast is where all the babes are ;)

We're down in Melbourne and would love to buy you guys dinner. If your not heading down south and if you guys put together a group dinner or drinks let me know and I may fly up :)

Hardcore content is pretty much illegal in Australia, it falls under prostitution law. Unless you can prove the people in the film are a couple.

Will you be in Brisbane at all?

The weather is better and all you really need to work is a good conection.
If your going north from Sydney hit me up.

You sporan wearing haggis eating warm beer swilling git!

You couldn't have insulted me more - calling me a bloody Kiwi is like suggesting ... well I don't know what it's suggesting ... you've left me speechless :1orglaugh

Batts sorry we missed u last week, did i hear right it was u'r b'day ?! ... anyways hope to catch up soon :)

bhutocracy is about right - I think the ACT is about the only guaranteed place these days.

Tasmania was a few years ago but I think that may have changed now.

Queensland seemed to have some really crazy law where you could shoot it but you couldn't distribute anything that was shot here but I think that was fixed just recently

But don't quote me on it

NT is about the only place where everything is legal and WA's fairly lenient i believe ...

I think you need to check your facts - the only state in Australia where prostitution is totally illegal is South Australia. And I have yet to see any prostitution law that links hardcore content to prostitution.

And if hardcore content was 'pretty much illegal' why would hardcore videos be able to be produced in the ACT?

In fact at one time the leading producer of hardcore videos in the ACT was the ex chief censor.

My understanding is it's A ok to shoot in ACT/canberra(legaly) and then any other state as long as you don't get dicked. But advertising in papers down in VIC for models falls under the solicitation act.

And fuck south of melb I'm moving to Brisvegas, Too damb cold down here. Hurry up summer you bitch. :D

Softcore is fine in Melbourne for Pictures,

Man I can't wait let's keep this thread going until we have a solid date and plan

This time we are only hitting fiji and sydney. I havnt been there before but my biz partners have and since we are thinking of moving there its a good time for me to sorta look around at areas I might want to live from bondi to the city..

The content we usually shoot is solo girl/guy masterubation.. so we would like to be able to shoot while living in AU instead of hiring someone in the US to keep up for us.

our flagship site is yanks.com

I think we are staying downtown one night, bondi 2 and manley 3 days.. any recommendations on cool locations/hotels to stay at?

We arrive Aug 11 and will be there till the 18th

drop me an email to [email protected] would love to grab a beer and learn how to speak australian :) hahahah..

yeah lol... you guys should talk to Robby Swan and Eros.

I think it's sad that there aren't more adult webmasters linked up with Eros. Without them we really don't have a voice here in Australia.

That's a lot of moving around while still in the same city. Why not just get one hotel for the entire stay? Seems like it would be much less hassle to me.

can anyone plan anything? kinda hard for us since we dont know any areas or what to do.

Sydney
 

I am in Sydney and always like to catch up with other peeps in the biz.

Hit me up.

Well the areas you mention are all within a radius of about 10 miles max - Bondi and Manly are just suburbs of Sydney

well how about someone spit out some date, drink establishment and we can deff try to make it.. we will be there once again from 11-18th.. and willing to travel :)

thanks guys for all the replies.

I'm in Sydney, out Manly way ... Seaforth

This is a good bar to meet people in as it's in Darling harbour and is
central and easy for everyone to find, right by the Sydney Aqurium, theres lots of other bars and clubs around the area as well, plus you can book a private table with couches over looking the harbour, free :)
Done a few webmaster gatherings there and they have all been a success.

12th August... one of the bars at Darling Harbour for a start?

no interest?

sorry been busy as hell we just launched info about our mobile solutions.. we get in 11th and staying at bondi, im sure it wouldnt be a prob to meet up for drinks.. i would be up for it.. barning any other unforseen issues.. how many peeps can we get ?

I agree, Pier 26 it is. Let's say 7pm I will book a couch or table for us today. The name will be under Todd Spaits or Yankscash. I will have access to a mobile number when I get there so I will post it here when I do.
