You have been around awhile, and if you remember correctly, you and I were cleaning up on TGP traffic while the AVS and Link List guys were starting a bunch of threads complaining about how TGP's were killing the business.
As a matter of fact I just bumped one from 2002 to further illustrate my point. 
Then they tried starting TGP2, and wondered why they couldn't keep or grow traffic to those sites....sort of like all the fake tubes that are popping up today with 15 second clips and trading traffic the way thumb TGP's used to do etc..
Unfortunately for me, it wasn't until very recently that I saw the light on this subject....and I wasted a year bitching instead of doing something. Hopefully I still have time to catch up. |
Fair enough. And there's always time. Always.
With TGP's at least we had a set of rules to work with that were not universal but pretty even across the board as far as movie clip length and # of pics on galleries went. It was easy for all of us to make $$. TGP2 was a novel idea that in the end was simply a step backwards.
I've never disagreed on the point that we have to adapt, but I'll still continue to know that giving away 20 min clips for free was just plain a dumb idea. It was the progression of idiots out there who have to keep one-upping each other as to the amount they're giving away (and also stealing, in many cases), because obviously more surfers will flock to the site giving away the most free fuck flickage right? I think it was all the idiots believing "he who has the most traffic wins" when what they should have been thinking was "HE WHO HAS THE MOST SALES WINS."
Let the adapting begin.
