    Force 404 for real?

    Has anyone figured out how to stop these guys? Are they really making that much cash?

    Is this for real? How do they sleep at night?

        The price of it is so fucking far out to lunch I cant believe it. Who the fuck would be stupid enough to pay that?

          Yes, they are for real, and the price is absurd - I could make something like that for 20 bucks.

            The price makes you wonder if it's really generating that much cash. Things that make you go hmmmm....

                seems like most of the tgp scripts would catch that anyway.

                  LOL - well it says you have to only use 1 recip per gallery so there is a dead giveaway.

                    1 recip, then 2 fake ones to your friends. Most recips get paired anyways since bigger tgps like to be paired with similar sites of size. So that doesn't work.

                    I checked the source and can't see anything unusual. How would scripts catch this? They say the script is hidden on the server and can't be accessed by other scripts. It looks invisible to me. Not an amateur job.

                      Not to say that I would do it either for people but why do you care so much? TGPs are requiring more and more content and less and less links/banners.. makes the game a little more even?

                        Maybe we should get rid of banners all together and just slip in a full page 404 10% of the time. Like a commercial break.

                        It's just hard to get an industry to change their old ways. I'm sure if that script was more socially acceptable the price would come down.

                          Am I right in thinking this is how it would work...

                          custom .htaccess file sends all 404 from the gallery directory to a script. That script handles all the IP blocking etc. If its showing a 404, it redirects, otherwise it reads in an image file (based on what URL generated a 404) and then outputs the image.

                          It sounds to me like it would be super easy....

                            If that was the way it was designed, then do you think brownie or one of the other tgp scripts detect it?

                            Though I think it's a little more complicated than that.

                                I was about to open a tread for force404. Couple days ago, i started to click on my links, in the first click I went to the dialers and pop up crap and then whenever i click to the same link I go to the gallery. Then i sent the link to tyrex of tgpsoftware and he says he never get the pop ups. Today, I again clicked on the gallery and no pop ups at all. Also, I found out that there are more galleries with the same crap. So, yesterday I asked for a pass for force404. Well, good thing is they do not have a real pass system.

                                Just go here http://www.force404.com/members/index.htm

                                    Ok,well, how do you prevent from getting caught?
                                    That is the beautiful thing about Force 404. I don't get caught! Force 404 automatically blacklists the first 2 IP addresses from ever seeing the 404 page.
                                    Well, in the near future everybody that uses that script will say 'I didn't get caugth!'

                                              Sure, but his IP is recorded to show a perfect gallery... he cant confirm. How many people actually take the time to report it...

                                                  can any action be taken against the script suppliers?

                                                    I imagine that those nice clean galleries are the ones to watch for since getting a lot of traffic and then scraping 10% to a full page add is the key.

                                                    The more traffic, the more 404's. I doubt any action could be taken against them. They would claim that it is an alternative way to advertise. Not much banners but then an occasional full page ad.

                                                        Bingo? Not really... for smaller TGPs, use your own recips .. still 3 recips. For larger tgps... make a hun/thumbzilla/al4a and submit it to just hun... make 3 copies and submit to just 1.


                                                        no bingo for you!

                                                          If this force404 script really works the way they say on their page it's really easy to catch.

                                                          It just blacklists the first 2 IP's and 404's 10% of the traffic. So all you need is 3 IP's and a maximum of 12 requests to catch the 404 page. If they start blacklisting the first 10 IP's you will need 11 IP's and a maximum of 20 requests to catch the 404 page, etc...

                                                                Why use IP's from the same block?

                                                                Even if they blacklist the first 1,000 or 10,000 IP's you can still catch them... it gets more complicated but it's possible.

                                                                        I know a guy who uses it, that's how I found out. He said it paid for itself in less than a week. Maybe it is time for new ideas.

                                                                        It's advantages if the whole industry accepted this.

                                                                        1. Less bandwidth hosting banners that get clicked rarely.

                                                                        2. Galleries would be cleaner, making downloading faster for surfers.

                                                                        3. Surfer more captivated by ad message.

                                                                        4. Higher CTR.

                                                                        5. If we would quit catering to the surfer so much they would actually buy something!

                                                                            Much love to the people doing TGP2, trying to starve the surfer into buying memberships. This could be a TGP3, make the surfer see a 404 10% of the time with no banners at all.

Mine included.

                                                                              And trust me I have enough. people want free porn forever, but if we based everything on giving people what they want, we'd never make any money. Besides, scripts are cool.
