Did all surfers lose their Credit Cards?
 
My sales have been sucking last few days. And this isn't ccbill.

A paycom sponsor.

chadglni 07-29-2005 03:11 PM

lol maybe they did.

Trax 07-29-2005 03:15 PM

the last days are def slower for me

Basic_man 07-29-2005 03:16 PM

Maybe it's too hot to masturbate inside so they go spending money outside :D

Manowar 07-29-2005 03:17 PM

Yep, it's sucking here too

Varius 07-29-2005 03:19 PM

I think this affects rebills more, but might affect new signups too: because of the Cardservices debacle, many people cancelled their Mastercards after hearing they were exposed.

Try checking with your sponsor or the processing companies how the mastercard/visa ratios are compared to usual, might reveal something :)

assmunk 07-29-2005 03:36 PM

or change your sites' logo to include something like 'Spend enough cash on the sites i push and i'll send you an A/C, so you can peacefully masturbate in the no-longer-fucking-hot privacy of your home....'

Looking forward to Sept

I am surprised people still pay for porn. With all the MGPs offering hundreds of megs of porn videos for free, P2P programs like kazza, emule and torrents with full length movies all for free. Not surprised people are finding it pointless to even pay........ :disgust

MPGs require movie files to be 2MB and at around 4 movies each. So each gallery is close to 10mb worth of movie content. And each page has up to 100 links to movie gallerys and you can see how much free porn people has access to now. People only had access to clips 10 second clips that were only 250Kb-500kb back in 1999/2000 when things were selling like crazy :thumbsup

No point in the surfer paying for anything anymore unless they find someone very exclusive but then again, there are places that you can get full site paysite rips on the P2P networks :disgust

eroswebmaster 07-29-2005 05:28 PM

For those wondering why it may be slowing down..remember August is one of the most travelled months of the year.

nikki99 07-29-2005 05:31 PM

I am sure that you are right that this is a big part of the problem. I found a huge amount of my mpegs and photoshoots at a torrent site and sent a cease and desist to them and also their hosting company. Basically I got blown off. Now before anyone says anything about getting together with my lawyer on this, I am already wiped out from spending over 10K for the 2257 so at $300 per hour I can't afford him right now ESPECIALLY with the summer slowdown. :disgust

sickbeatz 07-29-2005 06:41 PM

shit,
i thought it was just me.
my sales are down too -- hopefully things speed up right quick.. today is PAYDAY for most people :)

CDSmith 07-29-2005 06:53 PM

Well, there's been a warning out in the Canadian media this past week about Identity theft... all news articles on it have been warning people to not so freely give out their CC information online.

That could be affecting things a bit.

If the syndicated news media picked up the story, which I suspect they did, stories have appeared all over N America about identity theft and resulting warnings.

Identity theft is huge right now.

NoCarrier 07-29-2005 07:10 PM

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing week so far! Thank you surfers with credit cards :thumbsup !

I totally agree. When I got into this business back in January I couldn't believe it was a $9 billion dollar annaul industry. I've always been satisfied by free porn. I've never paid for it in my life. And now that I know all the great TGPs like The Hun and what not it's even better! Before that I'd find these random little TGPs. I don't think I ever found any big TGP. The only big one I ever found as a surfer was Wild Cherries which I had bookmarked.

For the last two weeks I was doing about 90% Credit Cards with TCG and all of a sudden it is about 70/30 now with checks gaining big time.

yeah that sucks :( My MC was one of these cards and my bank canceled my old and sent my a new. Not sure how much this effects people buying porn.
