ATTN: I am no longer with Phatservers, please welcome...
 
Yes, it's true. After five years of slinging servers I have decided that it's time for something new. No drama, no bull shit. I will be starting something new very shortly, you will hear about it soon.

For the past two weeks I have been training my replacement, Bridgette. Some of you have already had the pleasure of working with her. She is all caught up to where she needs to be and will be able to service all of your Phatservers sales needs. You can reach her at [email protected] or [email protected] .

Thanks to everybody at Phatservers for five years of madness, LOL. It's been a lot of fun and a great learning experience. Moose introduced me to my newfound love of sushi! Weee!

I will still be around for the weekend wrapping up some tasks, so if you guys need anything just let me know. It's been great working with you all. :-)

Please give a nice welcome to Bridgette. :-)

WOW Bridgette has some big shoes to fill.

Best of luck in your new venture Sly :thumbsup

Best of luck to you and the new venture... you know you are always part of the family!

Tons of straight love.

Elli 04-25-2008 11:18 AM

Aroo? Will you still be around hereabouts, Sly? We'll miss you!

Azlord 04-25-2008 11:19 AM

Congrats Sly. You will be missed at PS I'm sure.

Sly. Keeps it real.

SiMpLe 04-25-2008 11:20 AM

There is no replacment for you Sly - You will be missed there.

baddog 04-25-2008 11:20 AM

Wow, I fully expected this thread to be a joke. You have done a lot to promote the Phatservers name, and you leave some mighty big shoes to fill. Well, okay, maybe not shoes, but you know what I mean.

Congrats on whatever your new venture brings. Speaking from experience, it is easy to get used to working for someone, but once you strike out on your own the world is your oyster.

tony286 04-25-2008 11:20 AM

best of luck :)

prodiac 04-25-2008 11:21 AM

Don't worry, I'll still bug you daily on icq! But I'll miss working with you.

Martin 04-25-2008 11:23 AM

What up Sly!

All the best.

baddog 04-25-2008 11:23 AM

One more thing. When we get to the point that we hire a front man, I hope he is half the rep you have been.

BradM 04-25-2008 11:24 AM

This is one of the first times I've given a shit about an announcement like this. Very shocking.

Chris 04-25-2008 11:26 AM

damn i was hoping this was like a rick roll
or a joke or something
anywho
best of luck

kristin 04-25-2008 11:30 AM

When working with EGC you always helped us out ... and supplied Chris with more Swishers than he should ever need. : )

Thanks for your hard work, you'll be missed at PS.

this is what happens when you pay your hosting sales guy peanuts.....

especially when he's widely known in adult as that particular companies "main dude"

he jumps ship on you....& takes all those fucking contacts & customers with him to another host

unless the host had the intelligence to get a non-disclosure/non-compete agreement signed

but its not like SLY is going from phatservers to running his own hobby shop....i think we all know he's going to one of these new hosting companies (ok maybe he'll work on another project for 6 months...but we all know he'll be back doing hosting) :1orglaugh

anyways best of luck to you sly....i know these other guys can afford to pay you 10x more...ya know....what your worth...cuz you fucking rock :thumbsup

Hmmm... I do appreciate your faith in me, but this post is out of line. Phatservers has been nothing but good to me.

I'm not ripping anyone off. Nobody ripped me off. I don't operate like that.

Personally, I'd doubt he'd go to another hosting company. After five years of working on one project, sometimes a new challenge is just wanted.

I know one reason I started in the VOD side was because I was sick of selling content and wanted a new challenge.

SykkBoy 04-25-2008 11:41 AM

so, does this mean I have to hit up Bridgette for some ICQ lovin'? or will you s5till be around for that, big guy? ;-)

I have much love for the whole crew over at Phatservers...but for some reason have never met this Bridgette person...does she like sushi? Is she as much fun to hang out with as you at shows?

My fondest Sly/Phatservers memory: Denny's in Phoenix a couple years ago...we had joked about taking a couple fake pics of us kicking your ass and posting them on GFY to get a rise out of the GFY crowd...hahaha
That was the night after sushi at Ka with that extremely hot server...your first sushi, I think?

BradM 04-25-2008 11:45 AM

Sly sexually abused me in phoenix and i loved it

LOL. Dude, your memory is a little foggy, LOL.

First off, it's *RA*. Second, that was indeed my first sushi. Third, I was a little too drunk to remember the sushi. Fourth, I was definitely too drunk to remember the server, but I do remember the rest of you talking about her nonstop, LOL.

I'm always around to chat. :-)

corvette 04-25-2008 11:49 AM

wow, sly, big news, hope all has been well


welcome Bridgette :)

Probono 04-25-2008 11:50 AM

Thanks for all the TLC over the years.

Thats like saying I went from selling SUV's this summer to selling Hybrids....because i needed a new challenge.

I'm sure part of it was you wanted a new challenge....but at least 1% of it had to be the much larger profit margin in VOD & sales opportunity....while typical small-scale content production is dying out.

But i will agree VOD had to be a challenge....new technology is always a challenge.

brand0n 04-25-2008 11:59 AM

i agree with pr0

marko13 04-25-2008 11:59 AM

too bad you are going from ps.... i hope you can make anything good like you did with phatservers....

beemk 04-25-2008 12:01 PM

thank god, moose must be happy.

sly told me on icq that he quit because he isnt seeing enough cock and wants to work for a company that sells gay porn.

gornyhuy 04-25-2008 12:15 PM

Good luck in your new venture, whatever it turns out to be. You will be missed by phat customers, thats for sure.

Shit - I must have signed up for an account with phat on your first day or something. I can't believe I've been doing business with them in one form or another for 5+ years.

I think you were one of my first sales. :-)

Have many guys that I sold to my first year that are still around kicking and growing like weeds. That is quite a testament to the quality of the Phatservers support team. Hard-working group of guys, that's for sure.

sicone 04-25-2008 12:18 PM

Wow... shocking news.

Best of luck with your next move Sly
