Thanks Gonzo! Andy Dunn is a-okay! He wrote the funniest newsletter ever on the web. His adventures with Flaming Hot Cheetos and pit bulls and getting his T1 line installed are classics.

"The Zoo" as you call it started to degrade about a year and a half ago. I expect an FBI or some other agency round up one day soon.

Considering the wave of apologies and "Hey, can you get me a lawyer?" emails I've gotten from the lost boys over there I'd say sooner may be sooner.

yeah, I would venture to guess the next 6-12 months is going to be the real downfall of that place....while it is fun and all, you are right, the past year or so it has been going down in flames hardcore

anyone doing real business doesn't even think of gfy when they are reading to spend or buy, most real business people go to gfy to fuck off and play with the idiots, haha

Very simple, GFY is a liability. A board that can't manage itself is a one-way ticket to a courtroom.

Watch. It's gonna be real embarrassing and real expensive.

Unfortunately, it's that kind of behavior that will lead to the downfall of this industry as a whole.

No honor amongst thieves as my email box is proving.

I started my affil program back in.... hell I forget, 2001, 2002 I dunno, What I have found is (and this is cause I'm pretty much a one nigga operation)

If you don't spend bucks on the boards

If you don't sig whore like a mofo

if you don't stick your tounge up every ass you can find

you won't get any (or many) affils, and most of the ones you DO GET are in it for the free content.

I have to agree with Gonz on his post, it's all broken, and thats one reason I've kind of dropped off the radar lol.

I sooooo believe we (toon producers as well as everyone else) could do much better if we actually DID work together but that's a RARE thing these days.

with that said who needs 3D shit done lol

As a Playboy stockholder that observation makes me sad.
As the owner of Oprano - they are my best advertising.

Its a great place to see who not to do business with for sure. You can tell when Ghey Trey and his program is struggling as he will pick a fight there thinking that page views equates to revenue.

If you dont think so look at timeline trying to sell a white label cam site for 200K all the way down to spamming his affiliates looking for an investor and now I see hes released 20 galleries!

Great business sense! But then again what do you expect from a self admitted oxy addict, who makes himself looking like a tough guy degrading his ex girlfriend.

It doesnt compensate for the fact he used to jerk his dick for the gays to support his drug habit.

Look at his posts here. Nobody was buying his act in the beginining.

Its like kindergarden - kids got to go somewhere while the adults work!

the Playboy angle is what hurt the most. I was down with Playboy from the late 70's well up til the early 90's. Had my first toons published in the mag as a joke. Same with Penthouse. Heck, I practically invented their former popular Penthouse Comics magazine before asshole George got hooked on dope and fucked it all up.

He ended up taking a one way dive off the top of the Marriott Hotel after fucking up much of Guccione's money the word is.

Gonzo hit a point I wasn't going to mention, dope addiction and gambling. I've already won an out of court settlement with one GFY asshole who it turns out was on smack and had a gambling habit. Part of his settlement was to get on therapy. He was a bad ass on the boards but when I rolled up on his scraggly ass with 225lbs of solid muscle he suddenly bitched up like the sig whore he was. It was pitiful looking at this piece of shit, no I'm sorry, degraded human being.

That dope, alcohol, gambling will drag ya down. Of course he ratted like a girl and the list of fuck ups, even a so-called long term friend of mine whose program I sold big time came up.

VDC-Loki said it right in many ways. You could do right but this business is rapidly turning into a junky's free for all. Even the half assed mobsters just blow their shit every turn.

Years ago when it was tight-knit, one guy would do good and by default all would do good.

I don't hold Playboy at fault with GFY, believe me, if I wanted to I could crash Playboy's shit so hard they'd have to hock their rabbit ears. I didn't spend all those years in news for nothing. The facts are your best weapon. Playboy's place in history is it's own worse enemy, they don't need to coddle that ilk. Even when they're kidding around if you're tied in with a large stock issuing company, you do NOT make racist jokes while under the corporate banner.

Or was Playboy getting set up by these bozos? Just following some plan to grab the attention of the DoJ to bring Playboy down?

More will unfold.

As for affiliate programs, I've never had a problem with getting top webmasters to sign up under me. It only takes like 5 or 10 guys who really know what they're doing to sign up under you to make you. The smaller guys contribute but the top guys are the bulk.

I kept wondering about it man, you always seem to act so calm here and never really flew off the handle any time that I have noticed, and for all those guys to accuse that guy of being you really had me confused

lol...gotta love GFY

I was just about to write up a post last night about how you can't believe anyone or anything anymore except people in your core group, and even then it is tricky sometimes....it sucks that the entire world is like that now, not just this industry, people lie, cheat and steal just to make themselves look better or acquire more money....what people don't realize is that if you take it slow, be honest and don't fuck people over, you can have such longer lasting business and income
