Do you promote them? If so, then you should care, because bogus profiles equals chargebacks equals no money for you

I dont promote them no, but bogus profiles (good ones) surely also equals mores sales, far more so than the chargeback increase. If the money made each month was more with AFF than another dating site, then why would I care? They can obviously balance the chargeback volume as they're still in business.

Back in the 900 biz we made a shitload of $$$ with bogus chicks in the chat rooms. I don't feel that was immoral or unethical.

Here's a little secret - the girls you're talking to on the paypercall lines aren't really porn models.

You didn't answer my question. What exactly do you think I've done that's immoral or unethical? Or if you don't think I do things that are immoral or unethical, then state that. Playing silly word games doesn't appeal to me.

I could you feel bogus chicks arent unethical? This is one of the reasons our industry is so fucked up short term thinkers.

Every single girl in a paypercall room was a "bogus chick", lol. Most were grandmothers who needed some extra income and would literally be knitting baby booties while talking on the phone. It's called "fantasy" and no one in porn hasn't sold it. How many "teens" are over 19? Taking a holier than thou attitude whilst pushing porn doesn't make a lot of sense.

How is that cheating, Tony? The guys wanted a girl to talk dirty to them so they could bust a nut. That's EXACTLY what they got.

I guess you've never touched up pictures of your wife - geeze, that would cheating, lol.

Excuse me? I run a legit business, I don't fuck anyone over, I have morals and ethics and that's how I run my business.

Just because we sell sex doesn't mean we have no ethics.

Please speak for yourself.

Enter Here

then

Did you know you can get FREE porn?
The sites below are all FREE and
you get access for 3 full days!.

what happens if they do not cancel?? full membership for 30 bucks ohh but it is written in very small letters.
and then there is a link goes to a search engine that offers free porn but most of the links are to paysites

WHERE IS YOUR FREAKING FREE PORN?

She obviously meant that in the eyes of a lot of people, you DONT have any morals/ethics based solely on the fact that you're in the porn industry.

Feel free to list more. I have to admit this is the first time I've been called unethical or immoral in business or personally. At least when I say something against, I back it up with proof and don't play word games.

Actually, don't sweat it - ciao!

i think that anyone calling a 900 number knows and understands this. 900 number is fantasy. 900 numbers don't sell personal relationships and are not grounded in the pretense of actually meeting that person in real life based on their profiles, pics, personal info and back and forth communication. in fact, a 900 number connects you to a real person... a fake profile doesn't.
