what do you hate the most about this business

[T Pat]

1, Whores that miss dates
2. Answering escort emails and scheduling dates
3. http://nkvd.us wich leads to http://searchpage.cc/1525/ Argh the second time I've been hijacked by this prick

My replacement on the e-mailing and scheduling got into Tijuana today
so I won't have to worry about the e-mails' schedualing and girls blowing off dates much longer
I just need to train her, She's been running a massage parlor and is a licensed accountant so it shouldn't take long.

seems to me that as long a sponsors pay their affiliates no matter how they make sales and don't do a little policing' pricks like nkvd.us will be around
Other than that I like the biz

[Mishi]

I hate the double-standard that women who get a lot of sex are sluts and whores, but men who get a lot are studs. Hate in the mainstream, and really hate it in this business.

Fortunately, not everybody has that attitude; but it's still far too pervasive.

[Dravyk]

Hey Mishi can you or Venturi get back to me? I've been ICQing him for a week and sent Venturi three emails but no responses. Thanks.

[venturi]

Hey Drav!

Damn, 3 emails??? I got one from you the other day, sorry I haven't replied back. It's been a hellish week household-wise and I dropped the ball.

I'll get something put together for you Friday. Again, sorry we were missing each other.

I dunno if Trillian crapped on me or what but didn't see any ICQ msgs. If your msgs don't seem to come thru try hitting up Mishi as well @ 479 66 255

Feel free to and |raygun| me at your convenience.

[spazlabz]

this is easy
-spammers
-playas
-wanna be suck up playas
-sh*t talking liars (I got this, I got that, I made this......and you suck because you aint sh*t compared to me) typing from their wheelless mobile home in grungy undies
-how some people in the biz really dont want anything to do with it. Drives me crazy.

I truly love this business, and I don't really ever want to walk away from it. If I won the lotto tomorrow i'd be making plans for my next big adult project. This business allows, no encourages you, to be a jack of all trades. There are so many different aspects for you to work on/with it amazes me how someone can become bored. I know submitting galleries can get old. I did it too, Dame still does. But BUILDING those galleries shouldn't be boring at all. Pushing yourself to make something look cool. I am telling you when I work a video if I do one thing different, something I havent done before and I like it, I run around the office getting everyone to come take a look LOL

So I'll post this 'hate' for others who might be to kind hearted

-some spaz running around telling everyone to come look at the cool thing he did with the text on THIS project (I do it at home too LOL)

People who think that TGP/MPG is the greatest thing to ever be invented ... when in fact it is the most idiotic, ludicrous, self-defeating, destructive marketing/promotion system ever developed by mankind.

Well, you asked .... LOL

More of a list of frustrations, but...

- cheaters, spammers, hackers
- doing mundane, repetitious daily tasks (reviewing, policing, etc.)
- prioritizing "what to do next"
- having a never-ending "to do" list
- keeping up with rapid industry changes
- little in-person social interaction, ie. hermit syndrome
- carpal tunnel, blurred vision, hallucinations, etc.

Holy shit I'm not alone..hahahaha.

[Jim]

I hate getting ripped off for my life savings by someone I called brother

[Mr.Pat]

2 things i hate most:

1. people who say they want to get in the business but aren't serious about it, just in it for "sex" or whatever...

2. people who make judgement on what i do, when they are working for very dishonest/immoral people/organizations

[grzepa]

I hate hand-changing thumb names + the submiting thing isnt very exciting ;-)
Also sometimes I feel burnt with building free sites, and feel the need of exploring diffrent areas of this biz...I think I'll pay someone to design me a CHAMP site and will start promoting it...hmm a bit offtopic but wtf ;-)

Oh and there is such thing which I call beeing addicted to checking stats...its so unproductive but sometimes I cant help it

[nistka93]

i hate trying to come up with new templates for my freesites and also tring to get traffic to my LL

[Tommy]

Thats easy to fix getting listed at Richards Realm is great for driving traffic to a LL

[urb]

I hate the thought of doing something else for a living.

Not always true. Look at Venturi, he's a slut and every body knows it!

YES!

[chilihost]

I hate scammers more than cheaters. By scammers I mean people with whom you setup online partnerships/trades/deals and you go thru with your end but they either never bother doing their work or they do it and then try to scam you. That is so annoying!

maybe this program will help you, I use it all the time to rename files it works like a charm and it has an undo feature too, plus its totally free!

Mishi I hope my post about the whores didn't offend you, if it did I apologize
The thread seemed like a good place to vent The Escort emails got on my nerves yesterday.
I had a 19 year old politely ask one of the girls for the price to take his virginity. His response to the price "does that include shoving my dick in and pounding you in the ass". (I can think of a couple places I'd rather be first time at bat)
Have another guy that was so weird that I stopped responding to his emails start sending religiose crap to the girls
I usually refer to the prostitutes as the girls. I was upset because one of the girls missed a date and whore seemed a fiting term at the time, after all she is a registered card carrying sex worker.
I have "please treat the girls with respect they are my friends" in large bold text in the how it works section of Tijuana-Escorts and the members section of Tijuana-Whores.
Also written in bold letters on the index page of Tijuana-Whores I have "Tijuana-Whores Is A Web Site Built By A Whore Monger For The Education And Benefit Of Other Whore Mongers"
I really do like the girls and they don't mind me calling them Tijuana Whores. Putas is another matter |rasta|

[Tino]

2 things:

1. Downtime. Happens close to never, but when it happens.....

2. Having to change host. Its not really the extra work. Its the thought of what bussines you could have made with that work.

[finnbear]

I also hate downtime. Luckily I haven't had it lot - I use National Net like GG&Jim (was that spam?).

For me this has become more of a way of life than work. Well, submitting free site to 90 LLs is a work, lol!

I like building sites and I try to put something unique to each site I build. Sometimes I did it, sometimes not. Still, every site has some small drop of unique and luckily most of LLs list me.

I retire when I die. I ran a business where I had to travel all around Europe and old Soviet and work with people face to face. I love to sit on my ass all day, in my own home, never seeing anybody except my wife if I don't want. Some day I leave my house, fly to USA and meet you all in Vegas, but that day hadn't come yet. I want to see Grand Ole Opry, eat Gumbo and go to Chicago to listen some blues. If I have my Strato with me maybe they let me jam a little...hey FinnBear, let's play in G!

I would say sitting on my ass all day.

That's definitely my number one complaint. A close second would be missing out on human interaction. I love the boards & would've gone nuts by now without them, but I miss the watercooler chat & face to face contact with co-workers.

No wonder folks go so nuts at conventions!

[spacemanspiff]

Mostly, this biz rocks. It would really suck to have to get a real job, with one of those Boss things. They suck.

The only thing I don't like is bullshitting my daughter about what I do for a living. I tell her I do internet marketing and computer stuff. Fortunately I have some mainstream sites that are doing well so I can tell her to go search for something harmless and say "see, daddy made that site." But I still have to come up with a lame ass excuse why she has to stay out of my office when I'm working.

[finnbear]

Well, you are not lying. You do do internet marketing and computer stuff. My daughter is 24 so she is old enough to know her dad is a porn monger and dirty old man, heh heh...

I'm lucky to live with a woman who is diploma engineer in computing, so no one asks me for any computer advice. She has helped a lot of friends and relatives, though. These days they need a lot of help as their machines are full of spyware and viruses once a week, and as they don't speak english, they never learn to use proggies to get rid of them. They are also mostly old, older than us and will never learn to use computers like we.

Heh heh, my wife was shocked when she found out her father surf porn, but now that's allright. It seems you can believe anything from other people, but your own parents are saints.

[Bell]

1. dishonesty
2. hd crashes
3. browser hijacks
4. wannabees
5. obcious suckups - followers
6. sponsor link changes
7. people who don't keep promises
8. time wasters
9. people who think - they are better than you simply because:
. . .a. they've been at it longer
. . .b. make more money
. . .c. have more sites
. . .d. insert any lame reason - someone would think they are better...

10. people who take advantage of other people...

[RawAlex]

Watching cheaters, scammers, and liars get ahead while honest people get shit on.

Watching everyone and their cousin suck up to the aforemetnioned scammers, wanting to get in on their stuff, then spouting off "I knew he was a scammer, that is why I didn't do business with him" - all the while accepting free booze, parties, and un-earned payments.

Browser / toolbar hijackers - there is a special place in the seventh ring of hell saved for you people. Add a red hot poker up your ass if your hijack is so persistant as to try to reinstall itself over and over, no matter how hard I try to get rid of it.

autosubmitting suckwads who don't know how to read the rules, submit crap I don't want, and then send me obscene emails when I won't list their crappy over compressed sponsor content on a free host.

People for forget that the object of porn is "pleasure"... there is no pleasure in rape, molestation, or KP.

People who thinkI own them a living.

I could go on. After 8+ years, it's easy.

Alex
