Also its not that I expect folks on GFY may be interested and/or capable, but there will be a cash reward for anyone referring us to someone I partner with.

Totally unprofessional. How would you like someone riding your coat tails to gain business?

Are you at all concerned with the site's look and domain being very similar to mfc? Leo has been very active at taking legal action against anyone he feels is infringing on what he has built, certainly not a site I would constantly be referring to as cloning.

There would have been more lawsuits over the years if emulating "look & feel" or common functionality was IP infringement. However, I wanted to create a foundation and add/change custom elements before official launch and as we go. I've got a list of things already in the works.. as with most sites it will always be a work in progress.

There's been far more than I bet you realize. Its not really whether he has a case or not, but if you can afford to defend yourself.

True, and of course we would afford ourselves protection. I see no merit in a case considering you have sites like mycams and freecams out there and those are similar names..

freecams.com is now owned by Leo.

Hi Adam,

It was a dick move to try to hijack your thread. Please accept my apologies. One of the reason why I posted though was simply because... well... what you are asking for just seems really odd.


--> thank you, I think.

You say you have people interested, but that they can't get away from their mainstream stuff. Fair enough, but as these 2 things cancel each other out, there's no reason to bring that up in this thread. You're clearly trying to sell your idea by telling us that you have interested people, but these interested people aren't qualified. So, score so far is 0 to nothing on this point.

--> I merely was citing a recent experience with someone who wanted to get back into cams but ultimately needed to stay focused on his new business with respect to his biz partners and lack of time needed for this type of investment. Not just an investor, an active partner in his case.

For the rest, you're saying you've got it, but you're not showing it. You're saying "Roughly" $300k to $500k over 6 months, but don't you already have a business plan? If so how can you be completely unsure about an extra $200k? As for the hottest cam girls, you were selling contact lists of 10,000 of the "hottest cam girls" 6 months ago. Is it the same girls? Isn't this a conflict of interest?

--> A private demo is offered. Yes I've been revising figures. Half a mil for 6 months. Management, Traffic, Payouts, Internal costs.. all factored in of course. Traffic deals at the table. And no, not the same cam girls.

And then you finally say there's a "possibility of traffic partnership with an adult industry giant". What?? If he was a giant as you say, there's no way he (or she) would want to invite some nobody with $300k to take any part of the business the success or failure depends mostly on him.

--> one of the bigger companies, I wont mention here.. partnering in for a split. This is private and in the works so I won't elaborate here. There is some additional proprietary tech involved.

Of course Adam I could never speak for you, but I am assuming that you either have a nice video chat program or the idea to build a nice one, and you're looking to raise capital. That's completely fine. You need the capital, you need technology, you need models, traffic, management and support. There's alot more required to run a video chat site than people realize and I think you have come to that realization too. I just think that the way you are trying to sell your idea raises too many questions, but no answers.

--> Did you read the original post? I HAVE a new platform. Yes of course I'm trying to raise capital for a new venture. What's so surprising about this for some of you guys?

Anyway I have no doubt that you will find the investors you are seeking. Live video chat is a highly profitable arena.

--> Well I'm glad you have no doubts. It pays to be positive.

All the best.
