Looks like you cant even keep your "gee we got shut down" page up.

Go away, enjoy your millions, and leave this business to professionals with a longterm view.

I cant wait to see who your next host is.

Shoulda used quick bucks!

Who needs long term view? You think FM or Serge had long term views?

Do not catch yourself thinking too long term, this is 2004 not 1998.

adult internet will be around.

hopefully atherton wont.

This is true. The short termers have fucked thing for the long termers...

ah, dont let people scare you away from believing that there is a TON of longterm money here, it's just a waiting game imho.

LMFAO

oh man that has to be the latest update for 'morons say'

advice to newbies: follow basically the opposite of what brad shaw says and you'll be right

you are still in this business and thinking short term? you made it past the biggest cull in the history of our industry and you have people almost respecting you but you say you are thinking short term?

wtf would you call LONGTERM?

NOBODY* who sets up today could get in and out short term ... and you do not fall in this category anymore!

(*99% accuracy)

The guy who scores some naked Brittney Spears pics or video first will be able to get in and out with a fortune...

But you're correct, quick money is gone unless you have that one rainmaker of an idea or once in a lifetime content opportunity.

One thing I think we'll see in 2004 will be those who have been at it a while seeing the writing on the wall and opting to go out in a blaze of glory. I predict we'll see some folx who cant/wont adapt the way they do business blow it all out and grab as much as they can til Visa or the processors shut them down.

Theres that pissing down the well dream again...

Once the lawyers start to look at the hit and run scammers, then I wouldn´t like to be in the middle as an affiliate/webmaster, merchant bank, isp etc. Since most of the large setups involve structures, which are designed to slow down investigators, then lawyers/police will probably go after the easy targets in the supply chain, which have also profit from the crime. They are doing this in online drug sale cases:

Will only be a matter of time, before this happens in adult... actually I would be very surprised, if they are not already looking into this as we speak.
