I can help. there are lots of ways to listen.

send me a sexy pm or icq :)

|peace|

Most definately Gunncat at Bizzoworld. He taught me everything. The guy is something special

Woohoo, Spookyx is the mac god... he fixed it in like 2 min and I am listening to his radio.

You rock, thanks!!! |lovers| |thumb |bow|

The guys at ANS got me in the right direction and helped enormously. Rowdy, Sec man, Stu(veltje), Beefcake (who got my ass to a paid host), and too many others to mention. I knew how to build, but didn't have a clue how to sell. Also learned many tips from them. Without them I'd be nowhere.

Al4A. 100%
If it wasn't for him calling me on the phone, showing me how to FTP and helping me set up my hosting, I would have never gotten into the business.
(Or my site might have still been on AOL.)

The person that has helped my income the most is Sean (SiMpLe) from NS Cash. He wasn't really a mentor and didn't help me get started but he's had a big impact in the last couple of years.

Green Guy has built two communities that have helped me a lot. The most notable names in those communities are Tommy, Mr. Mary Lou, Boogie and Frank (haven't seen Frank in years). Ramster wasn't a mentor to me but we started about the same time, met at our first show, keep sharing ideas and he was the first adult webmaster to make a pass at me so we've helped each other out through the years.

Then there are a few folks that helped motivate me in the early years. Linkster, Rob, JanTM, CyberAge Dave, Greg from Sic Cash and Cory from Adult Check. There's probably others but the above stand out in my mind right now.

Somewhere in my box of old and dusty hard drives I still have an email from Tommy dating back to 1998 or thereabouts. I'd made an error on a submission and emailed him to let him know. His reply barely mentioned my error. Instead, it was a rather extensive message about site building in general. Especially noteworthy was advice regarding setting priorities on where I want to send the surfer. Looking back, I think he might have saw me as someone trying very hard, but nonetheless spinning their wheels when it came to making the bucks. That's just a guess, of course.

Anyways...I was stunned. Not only by the nuggets of knowledge, but by the fact a major player had taken the time to advise a nobody like me. I can point to that day as the one when I finally got serious. Not long after that, I finally started making a living full time in this biz.

JP, Jonny Traffic helped (still do) the most JP told me to do freesites and still is really understanding when I hound him on MSN - the nudge is so helpful :-)

A guy on here called Matrix helped me prob with out realising when he gave me my first 'I will list you no probs' type of thumbs up

However I owe my very exsistance to being here today to Forrest who spent 3 days at AOE telling me I was stupid for not owning a computer. We got to meet again in Germany in my illfated relationship with Sexmoney - It was quite a moment to see the guy that started what has been the biggest acheivement of my life again :-)

- The fat twat ;-)

there are 3 guys I'd like to mention here - the guy that saw my "I'm-builiding-websites" advertisement in a local newspapers and asked me if I can build an "erotic" website (than I figured there is some money behind that), Rick from bigtitsfantsy.com (he learned me everything about TGPing, THANX!), and than Shap (he forgived me one big, stupid thing I did, and inspired me to work more and more).... and all of you at AWI, ANS, GG&J and other great boards..

Do we ever stop learning..

Most of my help came from the old Adult Check webmasters and their forum at the time back in early 99. I didn't know the difference between a bmp, jpg or gif. I still know F**K all about scripts, so I have to add Ray of the webmasters guide for his constant help.

I suppose I've had a few mentors... There are Sebastian and Gary C, AC webmasters who taught me about se optimisation. Even TLA, Larry and a few of the old fogies were there for me. Gabe at Garill for just being around.

This sounds like an Oscar acceptance speech.. :)

Recently I'd have to say the guys like Rampster, as he's posted in this thread :) Brav, Richards Realm etc. for teaching me about submitting pics and galleries. It's not the pain I thought it would be and these guys have been patient with me, the grumpy old man.

What was nice for me, was being featured in a UK tv documentary recently about a model and being credited as her mentor and friend :)

I'd like to thank my personal saviour, the lord Jesus. :D

UW - You're more than welcome |shake

|shake| <=== That one I meant, this water into wine stuff weras me out you know lol

wears.


I'm off to water on walk.

Baldbastard is my mentor and the person that 'forced' me to get started.

Emerald made sure I actually listened to him by not letting me give up when even registering for Condom seemed like a technical nightmare..

Rowdy and the crew from ANS newbies made me realise it could fun and a "profession" I could be proud to be part of.

There is more.. but without those three... I know I wouldn't be here.. (apologies to all the others that have made the trip worthwhile too.. you know who you are)


(Hi Board.. sorry I've not been around.. been reclusive lately)

a lady who is no longer in the industry called Lisa Marie that used to run Go Postal and a number of other TGPs. Without her I would never have started down this path properly.
