question for Jim - Page 2

Guys, I am glad this came up for people that never knew the entire story. But something not mentioned was that I was not alone. Sparky (cd34) was screwed by this thief as well. So were his hosts and just about anyone that worked for him.

Something else...if it were not for Greenguy and Meatman coming to my house uninvited and slapping me around telling me to snap out of it, I would either be living on the street or perhaps even dead. See, I was in a deep depression for over a year and couldn't work. I owe these two gentlemen my life. And I will never be able to repay them. So, in case I never said it, thanks guys.

Oracle couldn't handle the stats for an adult affiliate program?

Yep, as I understand it, oracle was used at the front end. I believe we ended up paying almost $250k for it without the source code.

But, it did do shit that programs today still don't do

Problem is...it kept breaking
It was my theiving partner's idea to find a firm not in the adult business world to build it. They never saw that much traffic before and didn't believe us when we told them how much there was.

We loved having a "Powered by Oracle" logo on our program. That is, until they asked us to remove it. I think it cost $15k to license it for use on the web.

One more thing...
Those were the days...
Months of getting checks of well over $120k for my 10% partnership. It went to 20% but the thief denies it.
