From the October issue of Arena magazine:

http://www.setgo.com/article.html?id=65478...4728eb26b0947ef

Arena is a classy, UK-based "Style for Men" magazine, kind of a cross between Vanity Fair and Details. In the current (Oct. 2003) issue, it's got 40 pages on porn, entitled "Adult Education: How Pornography is taking over the Mainstream," Arena does a major rundown on the blurred lines between "porn, high fashion and art" and the legacy behind this sprawling, money-magnet beast.

ahahahahahahaha

That list is pretty funny....

Thing is its leaving out the REAL players.... Much more $$ made on the net the past 7 years.

Danni Ashe.

HAHA. About sums up the accuracy of that list.

yeah, danni ashe and luke ford?

i guess they didnt do their research first :-/

although i do agree with ranking larry flynt #1 (if you're talking about all the flynt companies... video, net, print, casino etc..)

where's AT&T?

Rich,

No shit and where is GM / Hughes / Dtv and Dish :)

AOhelL

:)

Flynt is definately number 1....

As far as AT&T, Dish, etc.... I think the list is for powerful PEOPLE, not companies.

Color me dumb, but I can't even seem to find Arena Magazine anywhere on the internet, except one in Australia....am I Googling wrong? I just had to read the other "articles" in it if this is their list of "Porn's Most Powerful", lol! :)

At least Luke FOrd is not above Steve Hirsch and Jenna

Danni Ashe #4 ? LOL thats a joke
i bet she sponsors or helped put the list together

playa-haters :nyanya:

Luke, how come you are way down the list at 34?

Don't those writers know you are the voice of porn?

No comments, Hooper. Why don't you go back to GFY and continue to set yourself up with a lawsuit from TNVCASH. :agrin:

lawsuit? who?

the day they sue me will be a cold day in hell. they used my studios for half those fuckin videos they're selling.. and they didnt pay me the rent they owed or for the loan i made them.

they'll talk a big talk about suing me.... but in the end, they will NEVER want to end up in court because i'm absolutely right about what i've said. i never said he had underage girls fucking in his videos. i might type fast confucy, but i'm typing the truth.

And given that they couldnt make $3000 note, my guess would be that they cant afford a lawyer either.

I've never read Arena magazine to my recollection, but the writer must either be someone I know or a big fan of my movies for me to be number twenty-nine on this list! Guess I have to go to Borders and check out the mag now :P

Jim do not sell yourself short. I have worked with many people from the video side of things, and you are by far one of the classiest - most professional person I have dealt with!

Anyone who needs custom video content done, should see this man!

Damn! I had this great post and it vanished. Sorry if it pops up after this one. Hooper, I think it is important to warn others about webmasters who are using underage girls, but you are taking a big chance by making those charges on the boards. Everyone is sue crazy...even if you are telling the truth.

I think we should have more lists. How about a list of every porn message board with the names of the biggest posters. Another list giving us the traffic for the top 100 porn websites. A list of the current lawsuits against porn webmasters and current updates every day. A complete list of KB's jobs for the past ten years (just kidding)!! A list of the top 100 richest porn webmasters and the exact amounts they make each month/year. And a list of the porn webmasters with the largest dicks and their exact measurements...for the girls! :wnw:

thats just good entertainment. i like watching him and his brother trying to spin off his nomadic work habits.

Uh that list seems flawed at best. And who the fuck wants to read a magazine called Arena that deals nothing with hockey anyhow? :biglaugh:

Yeah, I used to just laugh at KB and D$.... I thought they were harmless, and decent guys.

But there is NO doubt in my mind that one or both were involved with trying to use GaryK as a club against me. So they have proven to me once and for all what type of people they are. ( the scary part is that someone as "smart" as Gary was allowed to be used like this)

No need to get into KB and D$s short comings.... this is not the time ( I have some meetings to go to - ironiclly with attorneys), nor the place ( everyone at Oprano knows what a set of boobs these guys really are)

But Karma is a bitch....

:D

Lifestyles of the self proclaimed family of porn royalty!

i dont know either of them except that i spoke to D$ a few times on the phone. I think he has probably done ok. promoting the Players Ball can't be that easy.

i dont know KB except from the boards. the only one i have heard KB is a great marketing person is from his brother. i can't recall anyone other than those two talking about how great he is. generally, when a business or company benefited in the way they would have you believe they did from his "expertise", they typically let the world know.

i have always been baffled by a few people in this biz who can do such a great job promoting themselves and can't seem to get their own shit together and are usually broke.

I'm one of the few that admits to liking Luke's writing but I have to ask ...

How is Luke Ford powerful? ScottP made him look like a little bitch.

Who reads what he writes anyway?

After reading that quote yesterday from KBizzle in Wired...

ALl I can think of is that College Fuckfest clip where the song goes ...."suck my dick bitch....suck my dick!"

I guess thats self promotion of sorts?

Well after yesterday, I will never do business with any company KB is associated with.

I will also advise my friends, and associates to do the same.

Powerful? Obviously, porn's most powerful man is me, as I could dominate the rest of the list without any serious physical effort.

Welcome back Buff!!

Hell Mike--

I was powering down a few Krispy Kremes last night with a Starbucks mocha "mounds bar" and I got this wild idea.
I figure that Id offer KBizzle...the shizzle of the porn bizzle ... a deal he cant refuse. Ill just offer him half of everything one of my new websites could make. Let him pick the niche and everything!

Using his stellar skills Im sure wed both be rich and he wouldnt have need of a salary.

WHat do you say KB? You could use that CFF line to recruit models.
"Suck my dick bitch...suck my dick!"
Or...."baby you is so fly.....I knows you suck cock like a heroin whore!"

The dude is so diverse....I remmeber how when he was working for Mac And Brumble he was giving us all tips on how to tastefully treat the talent like the ladies they are....and then presto chango....to "Suck My Dick Bitch....Suck MY Dick!"

D$ is right. He should have you working the angles on the Players Ball instead of carrying his gear around at poolside in Florida. The PHB would be dwarfed just by the sheer magnatude!
Theyd be on CNN...HOward Stern Would fly down...hell who knows maybe fittycent would come down and KB could get him to set up a porn site too!

Then hed be in one of those Epassporte ads like Too Short!

:devil:

Colin, don't let that weight loss cloud your vision. Luke has always had a big audience. How can anyone take porn seriously. Sure, many have made millions, but they are few in numbers. ScotPB never got the best of Luke. ScotPB made threats. Big fucking deal. I have been reading about all the fights that will happen in January in Las Vegas. These clowns are all talk. They have small dicks and excessive amounts of testosterone.

Porn boys, grow up and act like men. Take some estrogen. Clear your brains, and check out Luke's writing on http://www.lukeford.net

There is a big archive of his interviews with non-porn producers, directors, writers, and talented people. That is where Luke shines. It doesn't take much for someone to interview a porn actress by the name of Clitty Sally. But try sitting down with legends in the film industry and coming up with material never before reported. That takes talent. :awinky:

lol, eh, what did you expect from a UK mag ;)

Those rankings are a little odd to say the least. And actors/actresses are really never that powerful. If its not you, it will be somebody else...

How much are you going to pay Labret? ;-) ;-)

I already said I like his writing. He's talented. Now what makes him powerful?

Where's the interview with Scott? I remember Luke getting schooled. Period.

I didn't miss your comment about liking his writing.

Which ScottPB interview? The most recent one before DUC moved to Setgo? Or the ones from the past? I like the Aussies' (ScottPB) in your face comments as long as they don't lead to violence.

Why wasn't Persian Kitty on the list? How about Kremen? They have done more for porn than Danni Ashe, Suze Randall, and Hefner. Hefner hasn't done a damn thing in years. He sits around in a rocking chair with nude ladies giving him blowjobs while his staff does all the work. If the names of photographers are going to appear, where is Stephen Hicks?

Lists like this one are for fun. They stimulate conversation and give people a few laughs. :bjump:

With the approach of Oct 1st it is becoming more and more obvious that at this moment the most powerful entity in online porn,at least,is VISA.

If they yell jump,we bitch and whine,but eventually ...we ask "How High".

confucy,

Define "power".

The people you mention have no "power" over me.
An befiore you ask,I define power as:
The ability to exercvise control over others,or influence the actions of others.

No one you mention has that form of "power" over most on this board.

VISA sure as hell does.

Yup. I'm Visa's bitch and admit it.

Nick and Colin's most powerful (porn) list

1. Visa
2. Ashcroft

Amen,and I for one love them for it ;)

Good idea...lets make our own list :)

Who is #3?
