tgswupdates - what is going on???
 

I heard some real nasty stuff about a battle that came about when digger stole the tgswupdates site from scully.....withouth any compensation and totally ignoring their partnership contracts?

Scully convinced me to buy a copy of tgsw, which I did a coupe of days ago. She has been totally good to me, helping me all along the way and now she is being screwed. I was just going to signup with tgswupdates today, but I don't want to support a company that has this type of attitude.

Please let us all know what is going on!!!

thanks,

Luke

no contracts. Usual outcome

Way too common in this biz.

I've been reading posts on this board for a long time, but I've never felt strongly enough about any of em to post one myself. But this deserves comment.

I'd heard about the theft, too, from a wm friend of mine...so I logged into the TGSWUpdates site this morning to see if anyone was talking about it there. Another webmaster had posted this:

When I dropped back into TGSWUpdates a while ago, I saw that this post had been removed. I had to contact my friend to get a copy, since the posting wm had sent it to him in an e-mail.

Looks to me like this Digger has plenty to hide, if he's too scared of popular opinion to leave darogatory posts up on his newly-stolen site. I was considering buying TGSW myself, and the Updates program...but after reading that post, and seeing his behavior, I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot dick. Can't see why any smart person would. If he'd rip off his own partner, he could rip off anyone. I don't wanta be next.

This kinda thing really does have to be stopped. Why haven't webmasters put together an organization like Apic that can track down dishonest wms and shut em down? There's too many thieves out there, stealing from us decent ones.

Damn. That's sad.

That's f*cked up for sure! I hope that digger guy get's what's coming to him.

On another note, who'd use TGSW these days anyway. It was outdated 2 years ago already.

I guess it is true, wow this sucks. I would like to hear from Digger to see what he has to say. I have been fucked by so-called partners in the past too and if it is true then I say we all ban together and stop supporting TGSWUpdates.

Broda, your service seems of little use to anyone who owns their own paysite...is there any way to get my affiliate program into your list of approved sponsors?


Cheers,

Luke

indeed

huh?

contracts ARE a must in this business whether you think they are or not, its better safe than sorry as the old cliche goes.

fuck me once shame on you, fuck me twice, your a dead man.

Well I think before anyone goes to judgement we should (like if we were judges in some courtroom, right?) listen to all sides of the story - hers & his. If he hasn't responded, then there may be a reason - perhaps he's not in town? Not been contacted? Seeking legal advice on the matter? Are we sure he deleted on post on TGSWupdates or perhaps someone else did?

Let's not jump to conclusions.

As for the post being removed - I saw it removed from the original guy spamming my email with his 'announcement' of this problem on another forum. Yet when I followed the link, there was nothing on the forum - don't know why I got an email from him in the first place and I'd be interested to know who gave him my email address to begin with.

such a sad..sad..song...

Everyone gets what they have coming to them... he'll see...

TGSW and TGSW updates are different companies. I never heard that TGWS (worldadult) was ever for sale.

I Like Vince, and Scully also. Too mad Vince decided to move on.

I own www.tgsw.net and it's done well by me. I was advertising TGSW updates on the site also.

Meant to pull their link last night. Better do it now I guess :(

I see that Digger has removed Scully from the Forum board as a mod, and taken her name off the site contact page. If he didn't steal the site, Trixie, whyd he do that??

Didn't she design the site, too? He even removed the link on every page to her webdesign site. That's pretty petty and childish if you ask me.

I liked what shed done with the TGSWupdates site...was gonna ask her to design a site for me...now I'm definitly going to. She deserves all the help we can give her.

My post at another board about this was deleted, so someone suggested I bring it to this thread. Don't have the post, but I'll rebuild it.

Scully has my total sympathy. I can well imagine it happened pretty much as she's said. I know because I was taken by an online sociopath for several hundred thousand dollars and half my business. This "person"'s behavior is well-known in the industry, but she still does business as if nothing had happened.

Scully should prepare for Digger to have no problem continuing in business. Always, always, always have contracts but, even then, they're not worth much in the game of cat-and-mouse known as American (or Anglo Saxon, for that matter) business tortes.

She should get a good attorney - you get one you pay for with attorneys especially - and so should Digger, because the day is very shortly coming when "being in Australia" will be no defense at all against the "Anglo-Saxon Business Model" all the cutting edge economists are talking about today. And the current drafted legislation WILL be retroactive.

For anyone who's been victimized by an online conperson of one sort or another, I have a web page:

http://www.pay-dirt.com/cyberpath

It has links to information and resources - and it doesn't make a dime, so it's not a traffic leak, gfy folk.

Chin up, Scully. Digger, watch your ass.

:mad:

Ofcourse, Luke, anything is possible :)

But if you're only looking to market your own sites yourself, we do have a paid version available as well. Just haven't gone public with it yet since it's in beta.

Hit me up on icq 274-081-564

Stealing a site & removing links are two different things - I'm not saying he didn't change things & I'm not saying he's right & she's wrong or she's right & he's wrong. I was just saying give the guy a chance to come out & respond - if he could.

Either way, it doesn't concern me - I use the product they were associated with and that's about it for me.

I dont normally check GFY boards as the posts made are usually made by idiots or newbies whoose opinions do not interest me however I wish to post an official responce to this thread:

- Copied from ARS notice boards - If removed I will mail this reply to any ARS subscribers on request .....

I headed up to Madrid for the weekend, and anyone that knows me and Rafa (and any other gay guys!) will understand when I tell you we left Madrid at 3am and took a flight to Barcelona as Chueca in Madrid bored the pants off both of us....

I have a few people that work with and help me while I am away, on AE, IW, GI, BT and my other sites - one of them being our own Wall (best houseboy/slave you could ever find) however he took it on himself to email all IW members a notice which dragged IW and AE into an argument with TGSWUpdates.com which has nothing to do with us as a company....

Wall sent an email to all of our members under our main admin status which sends the emails as if they have come from myself. This option has since been withdrawn and I have made the company responce clear as seen here. I wish that I didnt have anything to do this however the only person that has such access from today onwards is myself.....

No other person can now post with the title of "admin" or "support" on AEForums boards, passwords have been changed and Id ask anyone spotting anything that they think is "not good" to telephone me direct on +34 952888113.

On behalf of IntelligentWebs and AdultEarners - I appologise to those who recieved the email however as is clearly stated here - I want nothing more to do with the subject....

Anyone wishing to take this further should do so on GFY boards and not here on ARS nor on my own boards - such posts will be deleted - at least until their own lawsuit is completed.
