How do you kill off a website?? ...

[John_fromNY]

All right, take heed.

I got this in with my emails from today:

Come Back to Vivid.com

My response to their support team:

To support,

I would come back if the amount of pictures for Vivid Girls was restored. For example, back in 2005, when I first joined Janine Lindemulder had over 425 + pictures from her scenes. Right before I cancelled in 2013, she was down to 38 pictures. In 2005, Nina Mercedez had 250 + pictures, when I cancelled in 2013, she had only 11 left. How did Sunny Leone and Lanny Barbie lose all their pictures? I believe Sunny had only 15 pictures remaining and Lanny had only 5 left from her scenes. What's up with all this?

Also, please stop with all the sex tapes... Steve Hirsch has really killed off the site with all this stuff.

Thanks for letting me rant and rave.

John

Your thoughts....

I love Vivid... but they stopped doing real porn a long time ago... and haven't had a true ''Vivid Girl'' in over a decade...
Did they respond?

Hey Dave,

No not yet. The sales department sent out the email. Give or take the weekend and no one in the office, etc., etc.

Who knows? I was a long time subscriber/member who got ticked off with how the way the site was evolving. Maybe my email reaches the upper management of Vivid Entertainment? It would be nice. But will that change Steve Hirsch's management style especially with regard to sex tapes? I seriously doubt it.

If I hear anything, this forum will be the first place I come to that shows their response.

Another reason why the VNA is great. No red tape. You can speak immediately to the owners/managers, by clicking on the support link that is on the bottom every single page of every single site, or by posting here on the forum or just by emailing us directly. I hate when companies become so big and so bureaucratic that they lose touch with the very people who support them... We will always have the Mom and Pop feel here... Sorry you are going through that John. I would be interested to see how / if they answer.

Vivid's still around? Holy shit. The more you know, right?

Yeah Eddie just now known more for publishing everybody and their grandmother's sex tape(god I hope no one from Vivid reads the forums or we might end up with that tape), and offering every 15 seconds of fame celeb a chance to star in a porn than what they used to be.

Well the Verizon Postmaster has pinged them three times now since Friday... "Delivery Notification: Delivery has been delayed. Reason: unable to deliver this message after 3 days." Only a few more times to go. Otherwise, it will eventually be a delivery has failed. Let's wait and see.

Its funny because, go back about 20 years, and Vivid was the apex of all things porn. I never joined their website, but I remember all the best movies, directors, and starlets worked for Vivid. Whenever Id buy a VHS tape, it was from them. Back in the day of 1990s glamour porn...Christy Canyon & Hyapatia Lee used to work for them, if I recall right.

Now its just sad. I gotta wonder how they even make any profit off all those "unauthorized (but someone had to authorize it)" sex tapes?

[John_fromNY]

Very true yman.

It timed out and failed after four days. It got to them, they just didn't open it. Oh well. Steve and his crew will not have me back.

Yes Vicky, so true about this.

[Davest]
