AdultAlchemy is out of busines...
 
is't a beginning of chain reaction or just a separate case?

Quote:
Adult Alchemy would like to thank you for all your support and business over the years. Due to certain events we have decided that we will be shutting down the signup process of our pay sites and discontinue taking new joins to the program as of March 29, 2009 at 11:59pm PST.

We were trying up to the last minute of writing this letter to continue the program, but unfortunately we were not able to make all the pieces fit together. This unfortunately left us with minimal time to notify all AA affiliates. We apologize for such late notice, but we were really hoping to be able keep the program up and moving forward.

At this time we strongly suggest you remove all active traffic and marketing efforts to our program effective immediately. We will discontinue reporting any signups as of March 29, 2009 at 11:59pm PST. We will not be reporting signups after that time. All payouts prior to that date will be made in accordance with our regular payout schedule.

If you would like any recommendations for your existing traffic we would be more than happy to help find a new home for you should you need any assistance.

Thank you very much once again for your continued support and we wish you the best of luck going forward.

Just the beginning.. You'll see many go belly up this year.

LeRoy 03-20-2009 04:48 PM
Wow . Thats huge. Sux to see that though

st0ned 03-20-2009 04:51 PM
Interesting...I wonder what happened there? It amazes me that all of these people are complaining about getting no sales and don't do anything to seek additional streams of revenue and instead throw in the towel. I admit sales are down some places, but diversion into other places makes up for it. ADAPT OR DIE.

MrDeiz 03-20-2009 04:51 PM
there was 58 sites on board...

MrDeiz 03-20-2009 04:54 PM
btw they were deep into hidden x-sells mess

i notice that many programs (like 90%) moved to visible pre-checked x-sells above the checkout button at the same time like 2 months ago... it's too early to link these happenings, but let's see...

those hidden x-sells were like new era carding and i gues it may case some reaction from authorities...

Where's the sites going? Are they trying to sell in bulk... by pieces?

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life 03-20-2009 04:59 PM
did they even shop their network around for a buyout?

brassmonkey 03-20-2009 05:00 PM
not good news

bdld 03-20-2009 05:01 PM
so they wont track sales after another week or so, but what will they do with the traffic is the question.

They may have done that by going outside of adult and are simply closing adult
to stop throwing good money after bad. Ya never know.

HorseShit 03-20-2009 05:37 PM

I can only agree with that statement.

Porn Bailout 09... the time is now...

Zorgman 03-20-2009 06:11 PM
Im use to this type of news and really not surprised at all. Remember when the FBI was checking on 2257 docs. About 30% of the adult sites shut shop and never come back.

You probably wont be checking back here but I hope you and the fam are doing well. We still need to figure out how to do more business together.

Doctor Feelgood 03-20-2009 06:18 PM

Just a hunch, but they may have lost their MA.

bobby666 03-20-2009 11:00 PM

TheSenator 03-20-2009 11:13 PM
Gotta keep hustling....don't give up...just keep on moving forward.

Veteran webmasters just have to ride out the storm.

no, maybe they are too smart to go on with that x-sell fraud and worry that their ass will get fried one day. Mark my words, you'll see some people going to jail for this shit. I it ain't going to be funny. we'll see some of those "Help Jimmy in his fight with puritan Feds"... Will be too late, Jimmy...

Kron 03-21-2009 12:20 AM

EscortBiz 03-21-2009 12:24 AM

And how many of those sites were worthwhile to run?
Apparently none!

Fletch XXX 03-21-2009 05:15 AM
never signed up to push em.

Nicky 03-21-2009 05:37 AM
I think I pushed 1 sale to them a couple of years ago lol, where's my money :mad:

hehe

SteveHardeman 03-21-2009 07:52 AM
Sad to see a program shut down however, huge props to the owners for notifying webmasters and closing it down the right way. Most don't say a word, just stop updating and stop paying out and disappear.

So, you gotta give them a "tip o' the hat" for the way they're doing it.

VeriSexy 03-21-2009 08:32 AM
Such a shame

DaddyHalbucks 03-21-2009 11:02 AM
Sad to see a program close.

seeandsee 03-21-2009 11:13 AM

Dirty F 03-21-2009 11:21 AM

Oh wait, you prefer companies who fuck over their surfers with hidden xsells crap to be around.

Yeah ok...

Dirty F 03-21-2009 11:24 AM
These kind of threads make me so happy. Stuff like this is so good for the honest webmasters.

Yeah man, such fucking sad news that that scum closes their doors. Their xsell shit (basically cc fraud) is such a great thing for our industry that it's really sad to see it go.
What will happen to those poor surfers who think they sign up for a free membership only to get billed a 100 bucks?

Sad sad sad!!





Goddamn, you people are idiots. Real big fucking idiots. Fucking 90% of this board is so fucking clueless.

Every day they cry about their sales but they are sad to see a company go who makes sure that every surfer they billed will never pay for porn again.

Fuck, i can't this place and you fucking dumbasses.

I fucking swear the average kindergarten has smarter people.

Idiots.
