For those who are interested... Setgo was sold about a week ago. At the time of the sale the company that acquired Setgo went unnamed. AEBN was the company that aquired it. AEBN has as of this morning exercised its option to terminate the contract. The fit wasn't right.
The new site that I had intended on placing on Setgo is for the most part complete. We are considering launching the site on another domain as the work has already been done. If it gets turned on I'll mention it.

I wondered why all the sudden setgo started redirecting to fetishbucks..

Hmm...I have been checking setgo every day or so to see if any word on who had done the deal was up and never got a redirection, so that must have happened in the last day or so......
Sorry it didn't work out for you Bishop
Ford is at GFY now ???
I did not know that... What is he going to do there ? His fragile drug supported ego will not survive on the gfy board.......
We were having to install it on his servers because the guy he got to do it didn't know PHP or mysql. I said I didn't want my tech on it all day as he has other things to do and Bishop said he would have another programmer contact us Monday and get it finished. Nobody contacted us so I just assumed he couldn't get it done and redirected it to fbucks, and got an angry email from him today scotching the deal (2 year lease) which I'm really not too worried about. It's a shame to just waste all that webmaster traffic but I am absolutely determined to get out from under Setgo and if that means just killing it then that's what I'll do. Given the traffic the site was generating it could have been a valuable asset for anyone with the time to run it and why nobody seemed too interested I don't know. Whatever someone might think about you or me you still don't argue with traffic. Why Bishop felt the need to post about it I don't know but do I really need to be in a business relationship with someone that temperamental? I got over getting angry about dead deals in this biz years ago, too much stress.
I just contracted for 30 new websites for Fetishbucks and that's all I'm really interested in working on right now.
btw, did you notice how absolutely EVERYONE on GFY was kissing Lensman's ass about hiring you? When you were working for me you were the worst thing that ever happened to porn, now that you work for Lensman you're a star again My hat's off to him and I hope things work out well for you at Adultbeat.
Luke why are you putting words in Dig's mouth? He is more than capable of speaking for himself. I'll assume that the conversation he may or may not have had with you was a private one and that you are speaking out of turn. Why would you get involved with this?
Bernie - Would you like me to address the statement that Luke has made?

Ok...well, dig has you post that for him instead and coming and posting directly..hmmmm...
First of all, I don't see anything wrong with what Bishop posted.. He said he had a deal and the deal is now dead....
He didn't go into detail... But Dig, now you have, so I hope you expect Bishop to come back at ya here....
I was interested, but not at the price that you guys originally told me about... and yes, you did come back at me and say, "well, make an offer"... I almost did, but... I first ran by a couple of oldtimers, neither of which thought it was worth the money that was being asked... between the two people I sought advise from, I came up with the idea that it was worth between somewhere less than a dime and 5 grand...
Since I had no idea of what you were being offered , I decided to take a wait and see approach, next thing I know you are announcing that it's sold...
and then I hear it's a lease deal, not a sale.....
Even then, with the sale falling through today, I might have made an offer, but then I find out that Luke is gone... and really, Luke is the only real draw at setgo... Nobody working the board... Nothing to make it interesting, except for Luke.... So, at this point, there is no longer any interest....
as far as everyone gaga over luke....I don't know why webmasters would think luke was a good idea... I certainly do not think Luke is a good front man for a webmaster resource site... If I had gone after it, it would have been to turn it into a surfer site.... market dvds, pornstar sites, posters, toys, all sorts of porn industry related consumer goods.... I am quite positive that Luke has a much stronger appeal among the "porn fans" then among adult webmasters.... I don't have a clue why Lens would go and put him in front of what looks like it is going to be an addition to the webmaster resources...
But you guys are the ones making the money... I'm just a lowly computer programmer... what do I know...
anyway, sorry to see it die Hope your next deal goes better....

From what I've been able to tell, that's all Duck knows how to do.
Originally posted by Bishop@Dec 10 2003, 10:14 PM hmm.. I just went over to the new adultbeat site.. he is posting bits and pieces of this thread. I'm betting that he did in fact have that conversation with Dig and that he probably did say those things.
Then that was Duck's reason for posting it here - to get responses to cut and paste! :P It's always been his MO - if there's nothing currently interesting for him to copy, then he creates a stir so others will put words down that he can reprint. That's seriously all he knows how to do - the man doesn't have a journalistic bone in his body, he just uses everyone else's words for fun and profit.

HAHAHA Luke is still considered the talentless, dimwit, cockholster on Oprano.

Originally posted by deepundercover@Dec 10 2003, 09:32 PM I'm curious Bishop. Why did you feel the need to start a thread about your not buying setgo.com?
I have no dog in this fight. I don't care who buys setgo and what they do with it.
Luke - I started the thread because everyone has been very curious about who bought setgo. I answered the question that had been on many peoples minds. There was a deal, the deal did not go through. Simple statement..

With posts like that I'm finding labret growing on me LOL
I sometimes sense feelings of negativity towards that kindly gent, my former boss, Dig420. I don't understand that. Could somebody please enlighten me? Dig was nothing but gentlemanly towards me, even when I was feeling especially sensitive and needy.

No problem with Dig from this end...
although the little piece you posted was uncalled for....

I have sensed the same nagativity toward him myself. I obviously didn't have a problem with him otherwise I wouldn't have considered doing business with him. Some people do have a less than wonderful opinion of him.. not sure why. I never bothered to ask the question you just did. Maybe you will get some replies.

Luke, Duke, Duck, Fuck, whatever your name is these days ... just thought you should know when you picked up the one Oprano thread the other day and quoted me, I was quoting John Lennon. I really didn't write the song, but thank you for thinking so. :P

He hopes to be added to staff with his cut and paste buddies over at AVN Online. Porn Royalty wanna be.

hey I'd say Lens did a smart think hiring Duck
we all know Duck works for pennies,
and brings more than enough eyeballs to justify it.
and i've read his shit from time to time, when he talks about Pornstars and shit like that. Its the best worthless and sometimes relavent latenight gossip i cant think off to read
