Well, I think the members of this forum gave you the opportunity to explain yourself and own up to your mistakes, but instead you bullshitted us, ignored questions, and became overly defensive. These aren't personal attacks, these are valid criticisms from people who could potentially help you. Yes, I understand what you said about having enough models for now, but my point is that it would behoove you to maintain a professional image if you would like to have more models working for you in the future. But hey, it's your site and you can run it however you want, just don't expect to avoid criticism. If you put it out there, people are going to have something to say about it.
Madison...will you marry me bb? That response was just so "FUCK YEA!"! Everything I wanted to say to Mr. Funder in a nice, neat, zingy little package. :dance:
@Shaun - Yes, models constantly have to be on the lookout for shady site owners who either have no intention of paying or just have put the cart before the horse with their sites so to speak. It seems like a lot of them see $$$ and don't think everything through before recruiting girls to work for them. There was a site called SupportMyWish that seemed friendly enough at first and went to great lengths to prove they were legit. They were around for about 2 months and just shut down one day with no heads up or even an "Im sorry". They now owe thousands to lots of models. The main problem with these start up sites, is that theres not much models can do to hold them liable in these situations. Technically models are sub contractors and we work at our own risk. For whatever reason I never hear of models taking sites to court, so I imagine it might be more trouble than its worth.
So, when savvy ladies see red flags like; using pictures of popular models without their permission, lots of spelling errors, cocky site owners, blatant copyright infringement ect. we generally avoid getting involved.
