I do beg to differ as to the veracity of your statement, but I did apply some common sense and edit my post - no need to help them see the error of their ways ....
And I absolutely acknowledge EVERYONE's right to an opinion, even when they differ to our own :-)
I wasn't being personal in my response, just having a dig, and apologise if you took it that way, but don't take my post edit as being any admissions to anything.. they pay lawyers so let them do the math.
if you are so confident then why delete your post?
Stick to your guns... tell the world that everyone is full of shit... and that you ALSO have the LEGAL rights to sell Paris Hiltons video on your sites so all webmasters should not beleive the hype and flock to send traffic to you.

Excellent question and thank you for it !!!
Simple answer.
Lawyers.
They didn't like my exact wording and liked less that I pointed out the holes in the plaintiffs actions...
They are rewording as we speak and post WILL be up as soon as I get their imprimatur.
Originally posted by JR@Feb 27 2004, 05:51 PM you say you "keep people informed" and you still have not said anything other than "trust me", "trust my attorneys" why is the video legal? do you or your attorneys consider it by some strange and sad twist of logic to be in the public domain? did trustfundgirls.com give you their blessings and a license? does Paris Hilton give you permission to sell it? Does her ex boyfriend? you are being pretty cryptic for someone with so much confidence in what they offer.
Points taken.
Our webmasters ARE kept informed, but not with specifics.
Hence my edited first post.
I have no intention of giving up the way we do business NOR telling others how to suck eggs.
Does anyone have the proper legal documentation?
Certainly not those who claim they OWN things or rights I would suggest.
If you believe you believe, if you don't, you don't.

If you believe you believe, if you don't, you don't.
Like I said last post, time will tell won't it ?
You were not posting this thread because you needed to communicate with "your webmasters" you were posting it to convince others that you had some rights to the Paris Hilton video and that webmasters should send you traffic. Thats all i am commenting on.
Do you? Don't you?
Now you are being more evasive and suggesting that most people are not legal? That does like an argument of someone following the advice of his/her attorenys. That sounds like the reply of someone who ran out of things to say because they know they cannot prove their claims.

As stated in earlier posts, I understand your position and respect your right to your opinion. There was a method behind the madness of this post, but unfortunately I choose not to share that reasoning in public.
In trying to answer your previous questions I have had to be purposefully evasive, for reasons that were also explicitly stated in previous posts. I would sorely LOVE to be explicit, but smart business is good business.
So if that all sounds evasive also there is good reason for it.
Useless to pay for advice and opinions if you don't consider them and their implications.
As I also said, you cannot make everyone happy all of the time, and I guess many like you will fall into that category, but I have appreciated your questions and opinions, and valued them enough to respond as well as I am able under the circumstances.
Would you usually get that (and the constant thread bump) from someone who is "dodgy", or would they usually run and hide and try to let the thing die?

that makes no sense... when you have to explain in court how you make money and why this site exists and why you buy traffic... you will say what exactly... "we buy traffic to pay for the costs associated with buying traffic"?
if it's a "subscription fee" as you yourself called it... what is the user "subscribing" to? your answer so far is nothing. Unless you find a Judge that is severely retarded, you are still breaking the law and this does not explain the fact that you do not have the right to distribute this video.
Make big money on your Domains! Why wait 40 days to get paid with the other guys? Parked.com pays the most for your traffic, and cuts checks twice a month!

from the man who has the video that sells itself, the hottest item to hit the internet since the pam & tommy porno, the most searched for video for the last 3 months .... who has to come to an adult message board looking for webmasters ... starting off the introduction by bragging about how he is exploiting a grey area of law on an item that was stolen from a family with more money than he will ever dream of ....
...and if I am wrong about the ecact identity,
I can still say he's been around the block,
take a look @ the counter he is using,
not the counter known to newbs
You know this guy Cj.. He has a bunch of gay sites I asked you about a while back.
He was one of the first people to post the short paris clip on a paysite back in November.. think USA today or CNN or something linked his site in one of their articles at the time.
It sounded too risky for me.. but people apparently got paid for that period like he says... although that really only means that he managed to keep the verotel account open.. I doubt that he is guaranteeing to make sure everyone gets paid out of his own pocket if verotel dont pay out.
What a silly thread, I'm glad I didnt bother reading it til now. I don't really care who this guy is, I'm sure he'll find some fools who will send him traffic.
