Sold is a little word that in this case means "offload the piece of shit before it goes bankrupt" or something similar.

How the fuck do you lose 145 million doing porn? Did someone leave the hot tub in the grotto on overnight?

Its pretty easy.
Refuse to adapt and buy a resource board filled with drug addicts.

Not that I often defend much about GFY, but in reality that's probably one of the few profitable ventures they have going unless they've gone batshit crazy with salaries.

GFY is a money making board, still. Those skins and banners add up. I have even managed to do quite a bit of business there. Playboy really blew it though as far as their brand. Shame really.

I think weve all managed to make money there. Theres a reason those would ya hit it threads were so popular.

Was a great place in the day to find new programs and stuff but those have long been gone. Its been replaced by sissy boys going from one mood drug swing to the next.

I was raised different and have more pride than to have to use a drug or a therapist to deal with life when it gets tough.

And lets call it like it is. Adult.com was ineffective at promoting playboy.com but Lens was smart enought to have written the contract where it was cheaper to buy the company than to severe the deal.

In the spirit of being fair I dont know ANY affiliate management company that could have been effective with the restrictions they lay down.

Whens the last time youve ever seen a playboy webmasters banner or booth at a show either?

The worlds most recognized adult brand cant make a profit there is something bad bad wrong.
