If you don't have a problem whatsoever hiring these kind of people i wonder what else as a company you don't have problems.
If i would promote you i would take my links down instantly.

Hey Guys, this has been a while since I?ve been here on GFY but this needs addressing ;)

First of all, as others have said we are not MR, we are not acquiring MR and we have nothing to do with MR? We won?t, we are at the opposite end of what they believe in.

Some of you might have met me in the last 5 years? some of you in the last 10 years but some others go a little father back to the pre-2000 era. Often we?ll remember someone from back in the days and reminisce on the good old days and how it was back then etc? Tam is such a person that I met WAYYYYYY back in the old days when gofuckyourself didn?t exist, when I was moderating some board? hell I forgot the name, adultwebmaster something. It was by the maker of UCJ :)


Anyhow, I go back to knowing Tam around that day and age. Back then she used to be smart, know what she was doing and always took good care of her people and friends. She was friendly and I knew I could trust her. Then I lost track of Tam for years and years. I did my own thing, and she did her own. I made my mistakes, trusted the wrong people and built everything back up.

But all through these years, there was one constant about me? and you can ask around and look everywhere. I have always handled my business the way I should be handling it. I have made good business relations with many people that are on GFY, or off GFY. I cannot think of any people who can say that I was not fair, that I was not professional or that my ethics have been questionable through the years. Every decision I make is always done with Ethics high up on my mind. And I will assure you that the exact same can be said of my Partner Jay. We?ve passed on some deals because they were questionable. We decided not to hire people who we knew were shady or didn?t believe in the same things as we do. So the simple idea of comparing us to MR repulses me. We?re at the opposite ends and if you feel you have been wronged or need assistance with your promotion of our sites , tools or whatever, I welcome anyone to contact us directly Jay and I and we will do our best to help. This is what we do.

As with any organization, employees are what help build a company up but egos and poor management and bad ethical decisions are what brings one down.

We chose to empower the earlier and give a good employee the chance to put her past behind her and focus on what she likes to do, what she is good at and what she loves. What she was 10 years back is still what she is now. I don?t believe the choices the people make for you define what you are, but I do believe that when you are in a good environment that allows you to strive and where you can be part of a great team, only good things can come out of it.

I believe in doing things right, in keeping a high level of integrity and ethics, and that?s what I teach everyone that works with us. That?s what I expect of each and every person in our team. Often people talk of company cultures, well, this is deeply ingrained in ours.

With that said, I cannot condone all that Tam did while at MR that she might or might not have known? I wasn?t there?But I sure can vouch for what she is doing WITH US and what she?ll be doing in the future WITH US as she will be following our company?s culture and lead, I can assure you of that.

And I believe that if you don?t believe that, you should give it a shot and work with us and make your own assessment, you won?t be disappointed ;-)

I appreciate the explanation, however if you have to do the above for a new employee, you need to ask yourself the question.................

We did actually :)

Before we hired Tam, she was upfront about the fact that in the eyes of a lot of people she had let them down, led them to a company that proved out to be terrible in the end (despite how little she knew about it herself) and that GFY would be against her.

We asked her what she knew about the situation and her involvement.

We made it clear to her that if she worked for us, We would only accept the highest standards in support to her affiliates, ethics in how she treats everyone and beyond all transparency in what she does while working with us. I made it clear that if she shows even a iota of going against the grain and not doing things right for our affiliates (with which we pride ourselves in having a perfect track record), it would be the end of it.

She said she was ready to make things right, she was eager to get back to business and being able to do what she's good at in a positive environment. She said she could bring sales, she said she was eager to make things right with her affiliates.

She takes ownership of her actions, and she wants to make things right. As far as the past, that's all We can ask her for.


With that said, everyone who already does business with us intrinsically actually know what we do, how we are with our people, and our affiliates; they know that whatever happens, we're there for them and whatever they need, we want to make it available for them.

That's how we started 15 years ago, that's how we grew the company, that's how we became successful and that's how we'll still be here long from now.

I'm not worried about how our company reflects from hiring Tam, and that's not why I wrote two long replies because I believe in everything we have done all those years [for the record, I only write long replies because that's a bad habit and those who know me have learned that I often take 5 pages to say something hehehe]. But sometimes, People need to know that we're there for them and that we believe in them.

Mr is MR, Stunner is Stunner, and Tam works for Stunner now.

KillerK 07-24-2012 03:16 PM

holy shit... another program to write off the list.

Dirty F 07-24-2012 03:22 PM

And another huge ass reply which means absolutely nothing if you look at the facts. Give it up dude. All those words aren't gonna change the fact what lowlife scum she is.

Dirty F 07-24-2012 03:25 PM

People who defend Tam and her actions should put on the same shitlist where she belongs.

18teens 07-24-2012 03:34 PM

My only experience with Tam was when I was an affiliate of Media Revenue. I had payment issues and she went above and beyond to assist me in a very professional manner while other fucking idiots were more concerned about making deals 24/7.

I'm now a former affiliate of Media Revenue, I despise their tactics, and I was banned for making comments about them banging cards before AVN took over GFY.

All I'm saying is Tam is very good at what she does. She bends over backwards to help affiliates. You wouldn't walk into Walmart and cuss out an employee for that company's questionable business practices. Why? Because they're just employees and have absolutely no input in that company's decision making process.

bigluv 07-24-2012 04:03 PM

Really bad PR move in my opinion.

An affiliate manager needs to forge relationships with affiliates.
All the affiliates here know how far they can trust Tam to steer them straight, whether it was by willful blindness or just regular ignorance that she parroted the lies at MR for so long.

If you want to hire her put her in a non-public facing position at least.

While I have no reason to think badly of your program, this makes me wonder.

Oh, and PS. for all the talk of "making things right" of course Tam is doing nothing of the sort.

Yes, tell that to the person in the other thread who she told to fuck off or get sued because he kept asking about the mysterious charges on his card.

Just because you got treated nicely doesn't mean she did some really bad things.
This is just like saying that a scammer is a nice person because he bought you a beer at a convention.

You people should think before you defend her.

candyflip 07-24-2012 05:52 PM

I'm sure the affiliate email list she grabbed on the way out the door will always be worth something to someone :winkwink:

I know Tam from PCBBS - fourteen years ago. Maybe more.

I received no help from her, no resolution to my problems with NOT getting paid buy one of her recent employers, but I do not blame her personally. Paying me was probably not one of her responsibilities. I doubt that Tam had enough influence over her bosses to force them to pay me.

When I requested payment, all she could have done was ignore me, or pay me out of her own pocket. She ignored me. Same thing that I would have done...

When you work online for other people, you take what you can get and you hope for the best. People like Tam get hired all the time to sit on the boards and publically represent companies that are, perhaps, less than honest.

Maybe. just maybe, Tam is not a thief. Maybe she just needs to pay the rent / mortgage, put food on her table, and buy clothes for her kids. Maybe she wants some kind of benefit package. Secure job offers are very hard to turn down - particularly in this business.

I honestly do not think that Tam is going out of her way to fuck people over. She wants to make a living.

I have no idea, though. Maybe I'm blinded by that old PCBBS magic. I do not think that Tam is maliciously going from company to company, advising them on how to rip of surfers and webmasters.

P.S. Standahead: Aubrey Rose! Right? Am I right? That was so long ago...

really? because ive never seen her say that she did anything wrong, so if so then why would she need to make something right? she defended media revenue every step of the way. so is she the victim or did she mess up and need to make things right? this is confusing!

Look you can post as much huge bs posts as you want. That won't change the facts about Tam. And those facts aren't pretty.
Hiring her is the most stupid move any company can do right now. There seriously has to be something wrong with you to even consider it.

I am insane. Fact. I have grown comfortable wit that fact... You, on the other hand, are an idiot and an attention whore - and you are speaking out of your ass. Can we just possibly get a list of archived GFY links where Tam personally fucked you over? Mayube she did, I dunno. She lied to me, but I don't have the same vitriol that you seem to possess.

Or are you just jumping up and down all naked and shit, screaming "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! I'M FUCKING FRANNNNNCCCCKKKK! WOOT! WATCH MY BALLS WIGGLE! YEEHA!"

You're killing the messenger. The disease still spreads.

As u see u can type with anger til ur fingers bleed. Nobody doing business has or ever will give a fraction of a fuck about what frank has to say. And the train will keep chugging along.

Congrats to tam. Let frank kiss the crack of your ass.

.


so according to that she never admitted that she knew the company she worked for was scamming people and she would still be working there if it wasnt for an employee she didnt get along with. all of this doesnt add up!!

Any more false accusations or misinformation from you, I will have sent directly to our attorneys, XXXXXX, here in Orlando."

this was harsh, poor guy was getting scammed on his credit card and she threatened to sue him.

No offense...but how has she taken ownership for her actions? I just browsed another thread recently created about her and she was still in complete denial and made the situation worse by NOT owning up to anything.

Who cares about Tam if you don't want to deal with her go to the owners I am positive they will take care of you:thumbsup.
Bottomline is StunnerMedia has an incredible network of gay sites that blows most other competitors to Mars.
If you're not pushing your gay traffic to them you are seriously missing out on cash period.

Do you honestly think Tam is responsible for the actions of those companies?

A lot of people end up with for/with companies who turn out to be shit heads. I've had it happen a few times, but not once did I know BEFORE I started working for them. You always find out AFTER. That's the way it works. You go where the money is and if things go sour, you leave when you can. Not much else you can do.

lucas131 07-25-2012 05:33 AM

oh come on ... i have been showing her proofs two years ago. trust your boss or whoever, if boss have only words and someone have proofs, black on white, who the fuck you trust? it was not like some few bucks, it was seriously credit card banging, and not talking about affilite shaving. if those accustations come, would you trust your boss who say all is fine? come on, she have been on the boat with all others, she is guilty same as their ex employers, nothing else to say, howgh!

I'm not saying your card was or was not banged, but saying it was banged and showing your statement is not proof, nor would it hold up in a court of law.

Proof would be to record the entire process, from the join, to the login, to the cancel. THEN show your statement after you can prove you did not miss any xsales and did not click on any 1-click upgrades. Simply having charges on your statement is sadly not enough proof of anything. However, documenting the entire process A - Z, is a slam dunk.

I'm actually surprised no one here has done that with any of the companies accused of such behavior. Such evidence could not be disputed.

i gave all documentation, all steps, all screenshots, nothing more i can do, i will really not record that on camera, for what reason? if there will be court, experts will find all those info enough for them to find where the truth is. not sure what do you still want to say. say it straight, you love tam and she is innocent, right?

Right, but all of that really doesn't mean anything. It's still your word against theirs.

A video doesn't lie. Screen shots and statements don't mean much. That would have been your slam dunk. :2 cents:

I don't know if you got banged or not, I'm just saying you went about documenting it wrong. Done properly, that documentation could have quite an impact.

I think it was EscortBiz who started a review site, doing exactly this, video documenting the process, but it didn't seem to go anywhere. I'm sure they found all sorts of shit on some companies. Anyone remember the site, or if it's still live?

It's not about who said it, it's about who can prove it.

I'm also not saying what you documented isn't true, I'm saying you should have done it better. If you or someone else is going to go through the hassle, go all out. If you don't give someone wiggle room, they can't wiggle.
