So, let's see, she went to them (meaning 2Mooch.net) to get a mainstream site but she ended up in an adult site???

Damn, that would explain a lot wouldn't it.

It also adds to the pattern. Do a deal but afterwards redefine the terms (by hook or by crook I would guess)

So, Mark, how many other newbies you scammed, er I mean fleeced, er, no that's not the fucking word, ah I remember now, it's "helped" along the way?

It might "explain a lot" if that were the case, but it isn't. Initially she wanted to do two sites, one adult, one mainstream.

She had every intention of doing an adult site before she came to us as the registration date/s for her domain name/s show.

She wisely chose to temporarily suspend one project over the other in order to be able to devote the time and attention each deserved.

I think she chose to do the adult site because of the availability of content.

Well, since I have no idea of when she came to you, I cannot confirm or deny that one.

Edited in: I just hit Shellee up and she said she doesn't want to talk about this shit anymore but I did get out of her that she asked for the contracts on April 20, 2007.

I looked at Sexyteasers.com domain history and that shows a registration date of April 20, 2007 too.

So, which adult domains that she registered before talking to you guys are you talking about.

Actually here's a post where she confirms it:

I like Shellee. She's very nice, she's intelligent, and she has a lot of general business savvy. However, if you combine that with being female and attractive, it basically makes you the equivalent of a wounded zebra trying to mix with a bunch of hungry lions.

GonZo is dead on about Tampa. I was having myself a much needed nap in the Crown Room as a result of WAY too many Goose Drivers and a WAY too early flight. But I'm one of the world's worst about going to a show and people watching first. Fair chance I will have watched how someone conducts themselves for a while before I'll even consider doing business.

By day two at that show, everyone had asked who Shellee was and word had made it's way thru every money hungry person there that she had money and was looking to expand into the business. The passing of this news was often accompanied by salivation.

Now combine all that with her being pretty generous when it comes to picking up a bar or dinner tab and now a lot of them seek her out at shows. The Anal Hobbit plan for doing a show on the cheap is alive and well.

I've personally become so jaded, that I dont think I will ever hire or source anything from within industry again. Most have no real business skills, do not want to do a solid days work, let alone work 40 hours or more a week. They expect to be paid a premium and will only stick around until they find the next job that'll pay a few bucks more. And they'll typically score that job based on your reputation as much as their own and/or the skills you teach them.

You are so full of shit and you know it.

How come you didn't point to this post in the same thread:

That was her first adult domain and she asked us if she should register it... I said yes, and that was the last advice she took...
So, again, she came to you guys for a mainstream site and you sold her on adult. Yes or no?

No.

She came to us for two sites which she wanted to develop simultaneously, one adult and one mainstream.

However because of the work involved in that, and the fact that her adult site would be launched much sooner, and the fact that our sotware didn't do everything she wanted for her mainstream site, she made the decision to focus on the adult site alone.

Why would I point to a post where I was wrong and didn't address your statement about being unable to confirm or deny her intentions when she came to us?

That post you quote came before, when I was wrong.

I let her statement confirm that she came to us planning on an adult site.

Why am I full of shit?

Because, from what I can tell, she was not talking about an adult domain at that point.

But you point me to the post where she names the domain she is talking about and I will look, but I didn't read it that way.

Edited in:

Ok I found that actual post where the quote comes from and it was sexyteaser that she was talking about.

But the whois and domain hostory show that it was created on April 20. I believe she is stating there that she bought it before she knew you (you yourself, not 2much.net).
