An ownership group comprised of four former AVN executives has acquired Webmaster Access, InterNEXT Expo, and GFY from AVN Media Network.

Theo Sapoutzis and Panos Kouvatsos, former managing partners of AVN Media Network, have joined forces with outgoing AVN Vice President Roy Salter and Events Director Kat Revenga to purchase Webmaster Access—the longest running adult industry tech conference in Europe—and its sister trade show InterNEXT Expo, the largest affiliate expo in North America, effective immediately.

The group also acquired legendary webmaster forum, GoFuckYourself.com—better known as GFY—from AVN. This deal will bring a fresh perspective to the internationally known gatherings as well as the adult industry’s most trafficked message board.

“We are thrilled to begin ushering in a whole new era for Webmaster Access, a conference that has established a terrific track record for bringing the top executives from around the world together for a mix of business and pleasure,” said Theo Sapoutzis, who served as CEO of AVN Media Network from 2009 until 2015.

“We have some exciting plans in the works to not only uphold the great tradition of both Webmaster Access and InterNEXT Expo, but to create new history as we take these conferences to another level.”

“We believe Webmaster Access, InterNEXT Expo and GFY are incredible brands that have enormous growth potential and we couldn’t be happier about the opportunity to reimagine them as we look toward the next decade and beyond,” Kat Revenga added.

Roy Salter started his career in adult in 2008 as the affiliate manager for Mobile Adult, joining AVN in 2011 and working his way up to the VP role.

“It has been my sincere pleasure to work closely with hundreds of clients on both Webmaster Access and InterNEXT Expo and to help make these conferences global brands,” Salter said. “Theo, Panos, Kat and I see limitless possibilities with these trade shows. We’re confident the best is yet to come.”

Tony Rios, CEO of AVN Media Network, expressed gratitude for the deal as AVN continues to focus on growing its world-class consumer products—AVN Adult Entertainment Expo, Adult Novelty Expo, AVN Awards, GayVN Awards, and AVN Magazine.

“I’m delighted that we reached this agreement because it ensures these trade shows will be in more than capable hands moving forward,” Rios said.

It's not who owns them, but how the money circulate and originate. I learned enough when I tracked Fabian for a while to get my money.

I always remember Theo as Soul Rebel who was an affiliate rep for diesel cash or something like that... wayyyy back in the day. Theo definitely started at the bottom. We need to ring back those ambush interviews :pimp

I dident say Thylmann paid me. I just tracked Fabian because I was sure he was involved at some level. It was a different company that payed me - actually one that Jason Forrest was involved with - small world. The Money came from Cyprus.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

brassmonkey 09-26-2019 03:53 PM

mce 09-26-2019 05:26 PM

I just closed a big business deal due to forum exposure and that's ultimately all that matters :)

Congrats dude. I think there's still business being done here despite all the shenanigans. Obviously not nearly as much as when affiliates were thriving, but shit gets done.

What happened to Lens ? Where is he today ?

Who cares who bought GFY.

I hope they understand it's not all about blue/poo nickname colors, it's about the community.

If you're such a community-orientated individual then why were you always out stabbing other hardworking webmasters in the back?

with your "delete my competitor links from your pages" campaigns ?

You are not a hardworking webmaster.

You are a hardworking community member and you are someone who is posting threads on GFY about the porndude just because I don't work with people like you. Why so mad?

Move forward. 5 years later? I work with many, many hundreds of successful webmasters.

The Porndude is well-recognized character on the internet while you shit on people you don't like on forums..

Congrats man. You are most likely right.

Right/wrong, who cares. The fact is, you were trying to get us webmasters to remove links to your competitors. That is FACT. I've made my mind up about you, and everyone else is entitled to also :winkwink:

Wait, what?

Your words against the porndude are just unethical.

Why? Because your best achievement is the porndude clone myasiansites.com.

Oh, I see you gave up on the site in 2018, was it too hard to run?

Technically you are still my competitor and there is no reason for you to make valid points :1orglaugh

jscott 09-29-2019 12:46 PM

You really think MyAsianSites.com is a clone of yours? I use Maddos btw.

According to your own logic, that means ThePornDude is a clone of old startpaginas and TBLOP.

You are not the founder of list sites, start pages, etc. get over yourself :2 cents:

Let me rephrase my words, so even you can understand this.

You made your site because you got inspired by theporndude.

So you paid for the closest TPD clone theme you could think of.

You are even using the same graphics/icons and elements I used on the old version of pornude.

What I don't like about people like you, you represent yourself as a hardworking webmaster, while you are just a competitor.

jscott 09-29-2019 01:11 PM

You're telling me what inspires me? You really are crazy.

As for "using same icons" are you accusing me of something? I use Maddos default theme, if you really think you patent a site type, or even the alphabet then please check yourself into the nearest asylum :eek7.

oh and.....
You made your site because you were inspired by startpaginas & TBLOP. :1orglaugh

Yes, I can see what inspires you.

Bitcoin's value inspires you, but you are too late to make quick :2 cents: so the best you can do is promote coinmama :1orglaugh

And so on and so on...

So... is Soul Rebel now Ferus? I remember him from when I was promoting mashaworld.

Actually if I remember correctly, when I first started messing about with affiliate stuff, DieselAction (like most other programs at the time) didn't give away any free promo content. If you wanted to use content to promote them, you had to buy it from them.

Man ratios were great in those days. Wonder where this industry went wrong haha :upsidedow
