Model Mayhem Has Some New Sheriff's in Town
 

LOL

You gotta love when other porn guys, or photographer working for Playboy run around black flagging other porn photographers and companies.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

At least now I found out who everyone had been complaining about on MM. The long rumored dude who hates porn and bans everyone. He actually has done work for Blender, Maxim, Playboy and some others.

I find the irony amusing though.

Oh well.

Interesting...

What do you expect. Hes Human and we need to get rid of them all.

I heard the same thing!
Knock out the competition.
Banning lots of people tied to adult,
So they can have all the girls!

Yep. You have to love greed and hippocracy in the human race.

:2 cents:

fucking assholes running rampant on there - they booted us off. such hypocrites, Ken Marcus the famous bondage and porn shooter does nothing but sit on the MM forums all day these days and they don't do shit to him, he even has his URL to his paysite with cock sucking on the splash page in his profile, there's a Hustler shooter who does the same and openly recruits for girls for Hustler shoots. And tons more.

I know how I got booted off, a shitty photographer narced to one of the weenie moderators - they are all on power trips.

if you're on there - be very very quiet - you're only a jealous photographer or a snobbish model away from getting booted off.

And flickr too. I was trying to linkback with my pix but they too want all the porn surfers to themselves.

What happened?

aGREED.

Oh well. His site, his rules. I guess people can take their membership money over to OMP, MIOTalent and the others or start their own and end the madness.

I never had a lot of luck on MM. I received a lot of interest. A lot who said they would, or could work. But when it came down to shoot time. 9 of 10 times they had to cancel or reschedule.

did they get a new moderator that's trying to clean up "pornographer" profiles??

that place pisses me off, too many mods have the "holier than thou" attitude!! >:|

Yep. I got spanked as well.

I was looking for a photographer to bring in an shoot some stills. Apparently some piss ant did not like the casting, and reported, or this Playboy guy saw it since he moved to Michigan.

I had contacted him to see what the fuck, and they said I was a modeling agency. Even though everything on linked profile(s), and corp site says otherwise. As well, comment from models who've worked for me commenting on the shoots they did.

I tracked back to the 'mod' and in reading his BIO I had to laugh when I see how knee deep he is in adult. :1orglaugh Hippocracy at it's finest.

Agreed. They have been adding a lot of new mods lately from what I can tell, and have heard from the number of bannings. Some people I have seen their castings, and it is easy to see why banned coming out of the gate when vulgar.

Others seem to be a pick and choose if you show up on the radar.

It is always that way without fail. Hypocrites are cowards and love trying to throw their weight around. Pathetic loser.

I got booted off too (well over a year ago) and I am not even a pro photog. :P

Agreed.

Even when I contacted him directly since he was the one doing all the ad removal. He told me not to contact him directly, and do it through the 'contact a mod'.

lol..

Maybe they could have a forum as entertaining as CL forums where you can get a good laugh at the expense of the mini Hitler's...

I have not gotten the boot yet, Is it because I am a model too? I advertise porn on my page.

LOL, what a tool. He probably went and bragged to all of his friends how he 'schooled' you.

Could be your autographed nude pictures you sent them. :winkwink:

Right. 'Schooled me'. LOL

It would be one thing if I actually recruited most of my models from there. But I do not. As I mentioned before. Limited success. I have much better recruiting results from non-model based sites... OMP, MM, MIOTalent, etc..

i've stuck with OMP.. seems most of the models have profiles on both boards...
MM seems too stuck up, more of an artistic network, not as "commercial" as OMP.

MM is 80% sandbox.

oh..this sucks balls..

Agreed. A lot of 'talk' on the models and photographer end. Little follow through or serious business.

I have read some of the forums. It should be called, 'Egomaniacs'.

I'm going to fill my profile with pictures of my cock and text that reads "Now accepting POV models"

ModelMayhem is no longer owned by the kid who started it - he sold out to InternetBrands - they own VBulletin software and a ton of community type sites/forums.
But they let the volunteer Nazi fag moderators run the place.

it is a horrible place - pathetic old photographers who think they are fashion and glamour photogs but will never make a living as photographers who flirt and kiss the asses of the delusional girls on MM who think they are going to be supermodels or Playmate of the Month. these guys fly these girls in for weekends and pay them and make the girls even more delusional. I suspect a lot of these guys are also paying the models for sex.

I know of a few models who have contacted me but opted to work for some photographers out in Vegas, or Arizona doing those solo girl strip tease, and POV blow job type things. The girls were all excited when they went, not so much on the way back. I have a good half dozen girls I found later on those types of sites.

I am sure you know which one's I am talking about. Single girl, they offer 30 sites for one membership. They have girls running on a treadmill, tits bouncing, with some music in the background. Of some old fuck laying on a bed, and some hottie grinding on his fully clothed crotch, etc..

These dudes are the supposed 'ballas' of MM (according to the girls stories).

But I agree with you. Most of the photographers I have talked to on there, local or not, are crazy egomaniacs that go on and endlessly on about their mad skills, and studios. But they are the same one's hustling down wedding or high school photo shoots.

Some of the locals I have met, and they are only interested in getting laid, getting models naked, or 'hooking up'. Kinda creepy and weird.

I guess the mods do not like any real companies with real money and NOT shooting on a TFP impeding on the dreams they are selling this naive women who think they are going to be the next Heidi Klum.

MM is entertaining the way a train wreck is entertaining.

FUCKERS!!! ... i employed lots of girls off MM... also did a few TFP with some aspiring models, mostly fetish stuff .. After 7 years I get banned with no warning .. Fuck that site!
I worte a long ass emial to them a few weeks back siting the adult photographers that are on the site like Ken Marcus and others ... fuckers never even responded .. oddly enough my account stil works I can get to my emails ... I'm still getting emails from models that are worried they can't find me anymore

applied for another account but got nothing ...

maybe i should just do an amature account ... that should get accepted, right?

Same here. Only response I received was telling me not to write to the mod directly in their personal box. Send it to their 'contact a mod'.

Have never received a reply.

Yeah, change your location and style of images you submit to get re-accepted. Then you can slide back to what you were doing b4.

Not only is there hypocrisy, favoritism and banning without a warning but crazy stuff like people apparently unaware of internet basics like hotlinking of images, etc...acting as if MM is a walled garden.

It's entertaining but it's rare to do any serious business with other photographers or models.

You got it :thumbsup Business is business

Lol, here is a letter I just got last week.

CALL ME TO TALK ABOUT IT BEFORE YOU SEND PICS RECENT IF YOU WANT TO BUT PLEASE AT LEAST CALL ME

Vinny

my account is still working but i have seen lots of drama on that website recently... from my personal experience, many of the girls that are there are not serious and not to mention a very bad "DIVA" model i recently worked with... so be careful on that website!

OMG that is crazy

I think sometimes voluntreers can have a agenda.

that's the exact same as what happened to us - but they did respond - i have a long heated argument thread with that Contact-a-Mod thingy they have - battling with 4 different dipshits who were enjoying the fact that they had ultimate power over me.

when trying to get a new account use totally different photos and models.

and if you don't get a new account approved the only option is to find somebody with an account they aren't using and buy it off them. I tried but i couldn't find anybody who had an account for sale.

I'll create a clean account for you for $100 via paypal. :winkwink:

I agree
 

Yes I have had the same problems with Modelmayhem and Craigslist.

Modelmayhem will allow females to interact with porn related assignments , but us men, as soon as the mods find out they will delete our profiles from modelmayhem. Double standards.

I also have learned that many and I mean many photogs that use MM shoot nudes and full explicit nudes of underage girls. I was browsing the forums on MM and came across many photos defending the right to shoot full explicit nudes of girls underage and that the girl should have right to do it as well. I know this for a fact!!! I know a girl girl known as Amea Moretti now in LA doing porn that started out on MM , and yes shooting explicit nude at 16 and 17 years old with several Arizona photogs!! These guys need to be put in prison!!

And everytime I post on CL, it gets flagged and deleted as well, but all the big companies are allowed to stay lol So yes we have those who try to keep others from finding new talent.

CL needs to charge 5 bucks as i would pay it to advertise for talent, that way we dont get all these games!

I've talked with some MM photographers about licensing their work and it's all sandbox playtime for most of them. They aren't getting releases or IDs in lots of cases. Crazy.

Ha ha ha ha I agree again!!

Yes there is a major website in AZ who also sits around trying to keep girls he shoots from working other shooters if they are first timers, he also turns girls against other shooters. This GUY takes the girls to the Mall and buys them many nice things has their hair and make up done , even gives them money for sex off cam!! This is another fact and I think you all know who i am talking about! He shot a girl that is NOW FTVgirls main girl! lol yup exception the rule I guess ......

So I have shot girls that have worked with this guy, i pay them 800 to 1500 per shoot
then they go shoot with this guy and they will never talk to me again, I wonder why this is??? Its too bad I can not afford to spoil them at the Mall in my Ferrari !!

Oh well I am just starting out on my way up. Gotta get me a Bugatti to make the girls feel better about shooting with me.

If they won't send you love letters after +$1000 payment that is WHACK. I hope you're getting b/g for that kind of $$$$.

Yes,, I know a lot of the wanna be Arizona photogs that are all over Modelmayhem, they never ask the models for ID's and argue with about it! Saying they are not releasing it so they dont have to ask the girl for Id's, I tell them they are wrong they need to make sure that all models are over 19 years of age if they are shooting nudes of her.

But again they make me out to be the bad guy cause i shoot porn with girls that i infact require to furnish valid ID's 18 USC 2257 requires it!!

lol I am not trying to be their BF or friend after the shoot and yes I require BG all the way!!

I really love all the girls that QUOTE: "I dont do nudes or porn and i never will, do even ask"!!

Those same girls i am shooting taking it in the ass on video!! ha ha ha ha so funny!!

One letter away from a deadly typo :winkwink:

Cool man, I'm less hardcore so it keeps the overhead way way lower.

That's a proven fact. :pimp

i feel kinda sorry for some of the MM photographers who shoot the semi-nude, bikini, soft nudes - they are too dumb or scared to shoot for the adult industry, so they let all these sites like Teaseum, StrobeMagazine, Savvy, Fast n Sexy etc have their content for next to nothing - well in most cases not next to nothing - they literally do get nothing. And the dumb models get nothing either.

Yeah, almost everyone starts out needing to build their skills.

What's fucked up about MM is the 2-faced double standard where only certain people can discuss the option of doing adult, and others are shut out and banned for that.

I think alot of the models like it cause the naive photographers pay them with $ and/or attention, and since there's no model release/ID, etc, their wild side stays on the down-low.
