VL,
I've been sitting on those panels numerous times and "productivity" of those panels are questionable at best.
Meanwhile, and NOBODY can't take it away,
people I was rubbing shoulders on the boards reached multimillion dollars highs...'cuz boards are
PROCESS with a longer time horizon than panels.
Alex and I are heading up the panels for the Newbie bootCamp this time around. Sharpie has given us no direction and we never asked for one.
You know Alex and I, we will say what we want to the newbies or anyhone else that shows up.
We are not going to teach them to make pages or post. We are going to tell them what we think about the adult business and the way most "newbies" treat it when they come on board. Since neither Alex or I am sponsors we have nothing to gain or promote. For once we just get to voice our opinions in person instead of just black and white on the boards.
Right now, I am inviting you to come be part if this and give you the chance to spout off in person rather then on just a keyboard, no holds barred, speak your mind. Hope you find time to take me up on this one!
Serge... you are right.. the truth never hurts anyone in the long run (it may just may hurt for a little while)
I agree with a lot of what you quoted.... however, you just can't lump EVERYONE into one statement. There are always those exceptions. I think that is the way a lot of the people feel that are in Newbie Boot Camp panels, BUT they also feel that there may be hope for those who made the investment in their business & are willing to listen.
This discussion has been going on for a couple of days at Topniche & so I was not going to bore everyone by bringing it here.

I think if we can keep the momentum up, TGP2 will be the greatest thing since recurring billing... Just converted one of my TGPs over to TGP2 yesterday, and am busy building TGP2 galleries.

Sharpie Left, right, left, right, about face.... let our drill sergeants make you into an over achiever!
***************
Sharpie,
I got TRUE thoughts from one of the
guys you know,
any comments?
and I quote:
There are 100’s of resource sites. They are
all the same.
They are all trying to form of community of Newbies with
their photo shop tutorials and bullshit articles about content
licensing or whatever or .htaccess help or PERL scripts. For what?
There are no newbies worth investing in. The newbies are not today
what they were years ago, where any asshole with a HTML tutorial under
his belt and 4 stolen images, could start making your company money.
do you TRULY agree with the opinion above or disagree?
Forest.... did you get the email I sent you yesturday?
Last call......Dave gave everyone a reprieve for the weekend. Online signup for Cybernet Expo, will remain open (you save $25 - just think what you can do with the extra money) until he starts printing the badges on Monday afternoon.
Forest, as far as TGP2 - HiRise is in. I have my people looking into it, and going to start setting up some gallarys. In time we will probbaly set up a TGP2 to run as well.
I am awake Serge - not happy to be up before 9am on a Saturday... furniture people.
Quick Questions - quick anwers:
1) how often NEW pic will appear?
Every Week - we have some great photos, that make the one we have up seem tame.
2) how often the winner gets selected?
Every week!
3) will winner be selected per Pic or per all pics?
Every week based on a new photos. We are rounding up some prizes from different sponors now. And of course from time to time will have the best prize of all - CA$H!!
I am also thinking of a monthly prize, and then yearly prize if this takes off.
God, Serge,I am impressed...up and going on the board early on a Saturday morning. letshunt

_______________________________
Yes, Serge unfortuneately it would appear so, judging by his own post on Netpond.
Sometimes in this biz, the ugliness of the darker side of society rears its ugly head. we can only hope that he gets help.
alcoholism is tough enough to cope with but alcoholism combined with a tendancy for sexual abuse of minors is a whole other story.
Hooper is in my prayers... as well as all young girls in Austin, Texis.

So Mike & Serge.. are you publicly stating that my IQ is below 100 & are you not intentionally damaging my business by doing so?
Please say yes.. or NO!
Fuck C&D's.. I like lawsuits myself :-)
Hooper
*******************
Hooper,
are you publically stating that
the only reason you came to this board is to create a public disturbance?
piss?
Please forgive Mike,
I apologise on his behalf,
he just didn't know his decimals and him trying to lower your IQ by 90% was uncalled for.
If your business suffered as a result,
please submit all your financial records to
http://www.dldewey.com/hydroil.htm
for audit and determination of you losses.
On the other hand,
if you are claiming that your IQ is above 100,
please show it more often,
'cuz people tend to believe it's way below
;-)))
"Tell me that you love me,
tell me that you need me,
c'mon sugar let me know..."

Serge (NoPiss4U...today ;-))
Please say yes.. or NO!
Fuck C&D's.. I like lawsuits myself
----------------------------
Hooper, i think your history of immature, childish and bizarre public statements and behavior on the boards (though often admittedly under the influence of alcohol) strongly suggests that your IQ may well be hovering in the 80-85 range.
To believe that they are trying to hurt your business by suggesting you may possess lower than average intelligence (taking into account your behavior), is a remark that in itself suggests that you have lower than average intelligence.
threatening lawsuits, rather than looking for something intelligent to say, suggests that you have lower than average intelligence, are aware of it and have already accepted it.
Hooper, pull your head out of your ass. it is a compliment. Thank mikeai and serge for putting you in the mid 80 IQ range. I am sure most would not give you that much credit.

Just got curious because usually anything running on asp will be using the Word spellchecker. You have to admit that was a funny translation which is why spellcheckers suck.

Serge,
I understand that you have an aversion to posts that reference "Jamacian Blue Mountain ground and brewed bean beverages" and I can refrain from posting that subject matter.
I cannot however, especially in the month of August, control my compulsion to say "ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!"
Fri, 10 Aug - 21:56:38 216.77.247.121 Post #: 9806
Serge, I would go ahead and post it. I do not understand why Dig is bent out of shape. His idea was not original at all. There are tons of examples of Dig is trying to do everywhere on the net. Not only this, but YOU Serge were in the "Staffing - employment" business years ago.
There is also other similiar sites in the adult world including adultstaffing.com ( I do not see them crying that Dig has stolen their "idea").
Now Dig wanted to work with Oprano, however the more I spoke with him about working on a deal - the more I saw what Dig really wanted to do. And that was to try and get some attention, some business to his board from Oprano. Dig backed away from the deal when we told him that we were against the project being put under setgo.com - we suggested a new domain. He balked.... WHY?? I do not know 100%, but I would say he wanted to build up a community at Setgo at Oprano's expense and effort.
Now when his proejct will fail, and it will fail - he has a fall guy. He will blame Serge for him not being successful.
So to me its simple: Idea is NIT original and unique, Dig Backed out of the deal when we did not want it on his domain.
Business is business - we had no problems with him backing out, we wished Dig good luck and moved ont. Then Dig takes a page from Meat and AGA;s book and tries to bash Serge, wine and complain that Dig the naieve businessman was robbed by Serge.
This is not the case. Simple matter of a deal not being worked out and both parties moving on. Too bad Dig does not see it like this...
