I think this Easton guy needs some Anger Management
 

Easton is such a cock smoker. Why someone hasnt killed that fucking douchebag is beyond me.

Honey you should have included the first name. There's a Steve and a Mark. Mark is one wild and crazy mother fucker!

i do?

"The guy is about 26 cards short of a full deck. "

:1orglaugh

yup... just so people know, i ain't Steve Easton, whoever that is...

My bad boo, not you ~ I think most people know who I mean.

You are just more popular so I think Cheshire was trying to go for another longest thread of the week with this one.

HAHAHA

:thumbsup

man that fag has a huge hardon for lensman

Damn, that's one big ass fight he picked.

Brad

:1orglaugh i knew they weren't talkin about the fish hook king

ok cool... :thumbsup

I think he is an ass and goes about things the wrong way.

Bottom line is there is content theives, spammers, etc etc, and a lot of big people condone it. Adult nets dirty secret i guess.

So I can understand his view in theory. I would probably be pissed too if I saw some site with my content on it being supported by ap.

Don't worry ............ You have an article about you also !

steve easton is APIC - aka the caped crusador. NOT easton from this board. The easton from this board is a good guy burdoned with the same name

I remember that APIC thread. What a fucking cocksmoker. Steve Easton that is. :321GFY

thank you SleazyDream... always nice to hear :thumbsup

glad we're all on the same page here... cheers bro

Steve looks like he needs to get tied up and then shot with 10 gallons of bukkae jizzz to the point where his eyelids are shut together so he wont be able to write any more emails.

:1orglaugh

'I started getting responses to my emails to Amateur Pages from this guy Lensman who's whole life is basically, 'Go f--- yourself.' That's him. That's a perfect description of the guy. He's making so much money. He's on top of the world. Somebody needs to kick his f---ing teeth in.'

funny.

what thread was this?

deleted?

Frankly I would say it's time for a libel suit against Mr. Easton. You would definitely have a case.

this line was kinda funny actually

hahaha i had told you people that that APIC dickhead was a fucking homo, but no, you had to argue with me.

fuck this shithead :BangBang:

If you've been in this biz since the beginning like I have, you know who Steve Easton is, and APIC and their tactics for going after webmasters they believe don't have valid photo licenses.

Most every webmaster has had a run in with APIC at one time or another if you've been at this for a while, and their tactics are well known to be overly agressive, accusatory, and threatening beyond belief.

I had a problem once years back with Steve. I immediately disliked his approach and told him in no uncertain terms to be professional and not act like he owned the license for every adult pic on the Net. Some content I had bought it turned out was from a photographer who had bought the rights from another photographer and on like that. So there was some question as to who actually had the resell rights. I can't even recall how we settled it, but we did eventually figure it out and I got to keep my pics as is. I think I finally got him to realize that there were as many crooked photographers out there as there were webmasters and that often webmasters were innocent victims in the process of licensing.

There were rumors going around in the industry a few years back, that some of the big players were so sick of this guy they were going to take him out of the loop for good or at least give him a wake up call he would never forget. He tempered down a bit after he realized he was making a lot of enemies with the kind of guys you don't want as your enemies in this biz.

:Graucho

The problem with this guy is that he wants to treat everyone as a theif, even when he wants their cooperation.

If he treated SOME people with respect, maybe his reputation wouldn't be ruined like it is.

very very true about Easton. he goes about the business of APIC wrong, his goal is honorable but he isn't very smart how he goes about it, he alienates everybody and brands everybody an accessory to the crime. His strategy is bad.

<i>I hope to hell I threw a monkey wrench in his deal with Playboy. I read them the riot act about being in business with that guy.</i>

Haha, good job Steve Easton.

What a fool. And seriously, as someone already suggested. This guy has done more than enough to warrant a libel suit. This guy has well and truely overstepped the line between professionalism and stuipity. SUE!!!!

""That's what this whole internet things is about - hiding in your little house being a tough guy. "

that about sums up steve easton

lensman sue this fuck... you will become a cult hero like che guevara

Steve Easton has the classic personality of the fat ugly kid who got picked on in school and lost his lunch money daily... Wanna take bets?

Steve was all over me once and I still don't have a clue why.
I have license to 60k pictures or something like that but he didn't even care to explain to me what exactly I did wrong.

I knew I was doing everything right so I called my US lawyer and made him handle it. Works every time. Steve is nothing but a dumbass screwing up things for whoever works with him.

i dont even know him and i hate the guy already.

I'm betting that guy is a prick because he's jealous that he doesn't make as much as the rest of us.... his business is flawed.

Brad

A lot of webmasters would post their e-mail from Steave Easton on YNOT. He was like a crazed madman with a flame thrower on you.

The basic problem is the guy believes guilty until proven innocent.
His tone is caustic and without any sense of lets see what we can do here to resolve this. He just starts punching right out of the shoot.

However you do have to bear in mind when Steve was really going around banging on webmasters, the majority of webmasters were still using a lot of unlicensed content or scanned content. It was kind of funny looking back now how most guys got content.

And there was no strong case law yet to really do much legally, so I imagine he figured intimidation was his only recourse.

Keep in mind what the photographers feared most, losing their core customers, was happening in the marketplace. Prior to the Net, these porn photographers made their bucks selling to a handful of porn powerhouses that published the newsstand mags, and mags that went in adult bookstores, and for video guys. That was it. It was a very controlled and consistent work environment for them.

Then the Net came and zapped the rules of the game. Magazines got hit hard by the Net. They still are getting whacked down every month. Most good sized webmasters have bigger viewing audiences then Hustler's print magazine does and if you think about that, it's quite amazing.

So now the photographers at first thought ok we'll lose biz with the cutbacks from the big print guys, but will make it up with these new web guys. Problem was most web guys were just rebel pornsters that had no concept of doing business legally. They were fearless, because the Net was pioneer town. No rules no marshalls. A lawless place where you could get away with anything you wanted. So the photographers started seeing scanned magazine images popping up all over the place, and then when they would sell a webmaster content legally, 100 others would jump on the site and lift the guys pics for their own sites.

So like any industry experiencing rapid transformation, the established players all start to panic and run around not being able to think straight how we can we survive this new onslaught and change in the dynamics of this business. Hence you get desparation and see tactics like Steve used.

Isn't this the guy who got flamed by the Asian model a few days ago, or was it the other Easton?

Jesus! How many parents are naming their kids Easton these days?!

Steve: "Same bulls---, same people. Most of my problems are with the Russians [stealing content].

Steve, darling, I can teach you Russian @$75 an hour so you can communicate with your favorite group in the language they understand

"If you can't fight them -
join them!"

with your knowledge of the content and powers to wreck Lensman's deal with Playboy,
you'll be NUMERO UNO content thief in no time!

Go for it, my boy!
;-)))))

There are two different Eastons. Steve Easton runs APIC and Mark (i think) Easton works at JoinRightNow.com

"I hope to hell I threw a monkey wrench in his deal with Playboy."

If I was rich and somebody said just this one sentence about fucking with MY business.............


edit.....

Damn I read a little further and see this....

"That's a perfect description of the guy. He's making so much money. He's on top of the world. Somebody needs to kick his f---ing teeth in. "
