Oh, so a check for $100.50 doesn't count as a five figure check? That explains a lot.

I've made about 144 bucks in the adult "web master" industry within the past 3 years, so am I considered a newbie?
I don't think $$$ should be used as a main determining factor here guys

Your misunderstanding me Toby,
$$$ is important. I just didn't want this thread to end up following the $$$ trail as the final factor of what qualifies a newbie. thats all man.
I just know how you people are, and when $$$ becomes part of the conversation/equation, then you all will just run and stick to that as a major importance of determining what a newbie is. And I just want other things said and considered.

At the end of the day, it is all about money. That is why we are here. If you have been trying to make a living for two years and can't make bank, you are a newbie. Period. JMHO
If, on the other hand, you launch a product that makes you rich in six months, you sure as shit ain't no newbie. Length of service has nothing to do with it. Success does.

I would equate that more with success rather than newbieism.

If you have been doing this (or trying to do this shit) for 5 or 6 years and are not making it you are not a newbie. You are not successful but you are not a newbie. Some might consider you to be a failure perhaps but not a newbie.

Yeah, but you have other stuff going that you don't consider to be "webmastering" that should be brought into the equation

At least hes honest about what hes making from offline.

My guess is hes doing as well as 90% of the Zoo.

This is a long time game now my friends. And you have to work on it hard every day.
