Today's management decree

[gonzo]

On behalf of "The Management" ...

I would like to announce the latest enhancement to the Oprano mission.

In the past I think most of you would agree that this resource is home for the big paysite owners with a mix of the Pre 2000 webmaster. As time moves foward the business changes and so does Oprano.

With that being said, please join with me in welcoming a new face and arrival into the gumbo. Oprano is pleased to announce that The Shemp will now be calling this home.

This expands our focus to include traffic and traffic related topics [such as TGPs] where we not only discuss them but we start making waves.

For those of you that don't know The Shemp ... he is good people and he brings his experience and class combined with integrity to our resource.

In celebration of his arrival I should have up on Oprano Plus later today a list of sponsors that support scumware as well as blacklist of TGP's that are forcefeeding installs to surfers.

Welcome home Shemp!

WELCOME ABOARD SHEMP!

This is excellent news! Thanks for messaging me Gonzo - really, this is fantastic news for Oprano.com. The Shemp is instrumental for changing MY opinion on TGPs and TGP Guys - truly a class act!

Welcome to Oprano.

Another fellow from the Northwest :)

Local G sez hes still waiting in that resturant Serge...

[Evil Chris]

Hi Shemp!

[Vick]

Hopefully Shemp can give some insight to the best/proper/profitable way to work the TGP market

Being I am one of the biggest detractors/opponents of the TGP segment of the market I'll be very interested to see if there is something I can learn here

That being said I've never met Shemp personally but have heard positive things about him

[Peaches]

Yay! Welcome Shemp :) It's great we're getting more and more people in here who are old than me. ;)

[Bestat]

Welcome to Oprano Shemp :)

[JoesHO]

Welcome to Oprano....

[Buff]

This is a foolish business move, no offense to Shemp.

See, Confucy said on GFY that this board was about to close down, so it's a bad business move to hire new people. :D

[cj]

I have a shemp badge on my monitor that I got from a showbag at the gold coast gathering ... but I don't think I've ever met or had a conversation with him! LOL

Welcome to the team Shemp!!!!

[Dravyk]

Gee, does Shemp know he's supposed to be here? :unsure:

Anyhoo, good to see ya here, Shemp!! (When I see you, that is.) :)

He knows I think he had a weekend commitment. He will be along shortly.

[CuriousToyBoy]

Some people demand respect.

Some people earn respect.

Some people just get respect.

Never met you Shemp, but in a world of bullshit, your name has never been sullied that I know of.

Welcome.

:wnw:

[Winetalk.com]

Shemp,
don't show up,
THIS would make it the funniest thread of the year!
;-))))

[Hammer]

Shemp was one of the best guests we've had on our show and he's definitely a good guy.

Definitely looking forward to his arrival. He is coming, right. :D

Shemp what do you think of the thumb based TGP's vs the old school link based TGPs?

[Almighty Colin]

Shemp! Cool :-)

i thought they were a great idea, however on many sites, they quickly became just another opportunity to CJ and blindlink surfers to places that they didnt want to go.

there is still something very appealing about clicking on a descriptive text link, as opposed to a thumbcrop of some babes face.

there are some thumb display sites, that are exceptional though, such as sleazydreams site....not a ton of thumbs, no blindlinks and quality. that would generate a large bookmark base and the revenue to go along with it....

theShemp is such a dolly baby, I'll be here posting!!
Glad to see you here!
