When you can make 1000 times the sales with hardcore galleries...you do it. You don't leave money on the table.
Point is that our tgps have always made tons of sales. But we never used FULL STOLEN SCENES.
That's the part you aren't really seeing in all of this.
And I understand that your business is affected by this too. But guess what? If it wasn't just you being affected second hand...but someone actually STEALING what you do for a living, and I came on here and sanctimoniously told you that it was your own fault and that your industry had failed and you dropped the ball...you would probably tell me to go fuck myself because I don't know what I'm talking about.
See, that's the part that gets me so riled up. Not only have we been attacked on all sides, watched people losing their jobs, companies cutting back on everything, watching my affiliate work deteriorate because I can't sell memberships to sites that are available for free...but then we have to catch grief from people who SHOULD be on our side in this fight.
It just makes me shake my head at the thought process from some of you.
You're all cheering for the wrong guys. And you're attacking your own home team.
Only on GFY I suppose...

You all fucked yourselves.
And FYI, I dunno if you promoted TGP2 at all, from the sounds of it you didn't at all cause conversions were much higher in my experience, problem was greedy webmasters wouldn't follow suit and the trend became to give more and more hardcore for free, hence now with the video age, we find ourselves surrounded by tubes.
I promise you had we ALL followed the less is more approach we'd all be making more money.
Circle jerks and blind links and the BULLSHIT to find the porn back in the day is what made it convert.
I could search for HOURS back in the day and not find suitable jerk off material, and out of frustration I'd finally buy somewhere ( pre-biz days )
Now, why bother when I can hit one of the bagillion tube sites, hunt down that perfect video and cum all over my lap within 5 minutes.
TGP webmasters from the 00's think they are special, but fact is they did nothing but start the downward spiral and now they're all crying that porn doesn't sell... Well no shit it doesn't sell, it's fucking EVERYWHERE.
It's the webmasters that did that, not the surfers.
