[Hands]

Testing to see if I can finally get a post through. I agree with the idea that incremental progress in a few days is better than continued silent delay.

[Phippy]

Frankly, I've given up. No regular updates, no restoration of even the most basic free portions of the site have taken place, firm dates have passed with no explanation, and another site has done very well in providing what I described. I simply don't believe anything I see here. One day I'll visit again and see if anything is here, but for now I'm gone. I wish you the best.

[Leadfingers]

Leadfingers you sound like someone i know ...
let us handle this please ...
yes please you can all send us your private infos in regards to your subscription and so forth. we still need to verify it all.

Hmm...and yet there is this...

I have been entering everyone's information as I have been getting them. And now that they have recovered all of the account information for our members, you will no longer need to supply me with that account information.

http://www.voyeurweb.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=786

Am I misunderstanding something here?

[jwjoe]

Yes Phychocandy, I agree! I am begginingsed to wonder if leadfingers isn't Igor, maybe or a stooge believings with him. He can certainly only beings here for the causation of much mischief and trouble. Perhaps in his own way he is the swarthy englishman with the cauliflower.

[Elise]

Hey Ghost. Can I get any say on these boards?? Every time I have tried to post valid concerns and have my voice heard, I'm banned. Only one of my posts went through, and that one was VERY RUDELY replied to by "Katherine". I have been a contributor to this site for 6 years, and I think I should be treated with a little respect when I have concerns and when I want to have my voice heard. It pisses me off beyond belief to be censored and rudely spoken to by this "Katherine", who I have never heard of before this disaster. Not to mention the ONE EMAIL I got a response to. WOW, what a doozie of a response. I would be happy to share that with you Ghost. Give me an email address to send it to, it's quite shocking...REALLY! I wonder if anyone else there on the VW staff is aware of the types of things she was saying in email??

Seriously, you want a successful site? Start with showing a little respect to the contributors, start with answering valid concerns with sensitivity. I'm almost certain this will never appear, just as all the other posts I attempted to submit...but hey, one last shot.

[larslives]

I still have not received any user name or password to my email account.I see at on the forum that some have. I know you are busy but would like to at least get an estimate on when i should be expecting the user name and password

[Stmaryscpl]

If this is the same Leadfingers i have personally met him at an RC Meet and Greet and he for sure isn't Igor.

Ghost we are getting impatient here but just glad to hear some updates.

[diger815]

Thank you for the update

[redruggers]

yes dear contributor ... true..!
May's winners were lost on June 9th correct ... one week before the system was able to finalize final winners results. i usually go into the system and pull out the results on the 15th of every month and send to billing. as u know it was interrupted before i can have that data on hand.
for that we apologize on our behalf .. sad this was caused by someone we never counted on to happen ... we shall run the same contests that we did in May as soon as the site is up and running again
thank you

Let me try again, since only about 1/4 of my tries are ever approved (or rejected, thus never considered, I suppose). Being also a dear contributor, I do not think it's very realistic to run the May contests again. Why not rely on the winners lists that were posted nearly a week before the site went down?

And PLEASE release me from this f-ing purgatory, would'ya? I don't know why I was banned and I didn't do anything ban-worthy compared to many others who are not banned. This is how you treat people who (1) provided consistently prize-winning content, (2) have tried to provide constructive advice (and criticism) since day one of this board???

[Sherlock]

When I google homeclips.com It comes up "The Free ********:Post your sexy girls and your...." and when I click on it the "Welcome to the Free Voyuerweb page appears? Hmmm sure makes one think that something is going on that we aren't being told! What's up with that Ghost?

"yes it is all about free of speech and all ...
but in crisis like these we cannot allow our new enemy to benefit from our bulletin board and loyal viewers like your selves.
the censorship that is taking place is the one that we beleive is going to hurt people involved in those crisis on both sides."

I have been a "quiet" member for 10 years and the first time I posted an honest assessment of what I have witnessed with the public relations "professional", it was censored.

What this indicates is that you don't know a friend from an enemy.
Every day that this place is down, it loses even more credibility.

At this point, you are running on fumes. Excuses are like assholes.

[sumshyguy]

jesus, i cannot believe the whining. as a long time paying member i continue to thank all contributors - you're the ones that truly keep this site alive. and as a longer time vw enthusiast i can see that we've all come to expect a high level of style at vw/rc/hc. and with all of the sabotage that some cocksucker (apologies to stcl) inflicted on his departure, there is sure to be a looong recovery effort. i've seen so many posts that someone's friend could get a site up and running in a few hours. but i'd be really impressed if those friends could cull all of the hof/funbags data back on to a site, make it look like it used to, and (to make it really challenging) get around whatever obstacles that asshole left. i need my rc fix like a fucking addict needs heroin...i'm going crazy here. but at the same time i know that if i wait (even impatiently) i will get my fix and it will be just like the first time. this is my version of blowing off steam...be patient people. i'm sure our playground will open again.

peace...

I believe that trying to "recover" the entire old site before getting something up and running is/was a grave error. Booby traps or whatever can be dealt with as an ongoing effort. Getting a site up and running is more important at this point.

Continued stated and then missed deadlines do nothing for your credibility as a web content provider. With all respect to Ghost (whoever the fuck he is) this continued whining about how hard getting the entire site up is lame when you could put up a working site now and add to it later.

jmo- worth exactly what you paid for it.

[rezzi]

Are you people seriously going to believe this crap???

[contributor]

Ghost,the check for my January win was not cashed.I was called by my bank on June 4th and they said the reason was closed account.I contacted Nicole and she wanted me to send a scan of a check.Is there a way for you to check that the money was not paid without me sending a copy of the check?It seems the bank will not be able to deliver the deposited check

[jbeeaz]

It'sgood to hear [x3] positive, non-snarky site rebuild information. I was a bit surprised, at first, by parts of the end user agreement that prohibited posts (lewd, sexual,etc) but upon a re-read just pertained to this b, not the VW site when reloaded.
I do hope that "this whole thing has been a lesson" to management/owners about segmenting root password and segment management, restricting internal password access and their security plus daily server auto-reports,logins, actions, data files transfers, etc. Yes, this does feel like locking the barn after the cows were stolen, however, most the cows were recovered, but not, and there are more cow theives.

Hope you get actual restart dates or at least a good SWAG to pass along

[Ctwyle]

For some odd reason, I feel compelled to post one last time.
Again, My history is been around since the late 90's spent time around VW, "The House", RC, HC.

Ghost... God bless you! You have a monumental task! I admire your ability to sort thru and tolorate the idiots, without ignoring the issues. So many ladies are receiving such an injustice the longer this goes on.

I have said from the beginning that I understand the position the site is in. I am surprised that VW has not found a professional PR representative yet.

While watching Kate struggle, I offered a simple piece of advice, and she lashed out at me. I composed a reply, but before posting it, I nixed it to wait and see the site come up. I chalked it off to an unsuccessful PR Rep that can't keep her cool.

I will however post it now, hoping Katherine will see it.

Ctwyle wrote:I have been a supporter of VW, RC, and (off and on) HC for well over 10 years now. I have been patiently waiting and watching this situation evolve hoping for the positive outcome that is promised.

As I watch, I begin to ponder this very question (getting a refund) more and more every day. By watching the comments, I'm seeing the member base crumble as the level of trust declines with VW. This poses the question, since the nature of the service has a dependency on members supplying the content of the site, what kind of service is going to be left?

I present this point as constructive criticism. I believe a large portion of the problem VW has at this point is the process of presenting the resolution to the members. Outside of the initial time frame of 4-7 days, the only time line that has been presented is “soon, or very soon”. From personal experience working in a production environment, presenting and updating the timeline is key to keeping everyone informed about the progress of the project. This maintains confidence that progress is actually being made. When deadlines pass, “4 to 7 days”, with no explanation or update, it creates doubt and speculation.

I just paid my subscription to RC and was approximately 20 days into it before “the incident”, and was pondering renewing my subscription to HC (which I haven’t done for a couple years). Ironically, I wasn’t going to renew at all for a while.

As Augustwest pointed out, it’s not that expensive, although by August’s calculations, I have only received $1.58 worth of service. At this point, I am hoping VW can follow through with their promise. If the situation continues to decline, I will probably follow Katherine’s instruction for a refund.



With all due respect, we are only 1 day outside of the initial promised date for return. We said 4-7 days on June 10, 2012 and today is June 17, 2012. I hope that you will read some of the posts from people who actually have experience on the technical intricacies involved in returning VW back to you. It is a massive site with hundreds and thousands of pictures and videos, the task alone of retrieving these could take more than a week.

I just recently also posted indicating that I did see the website during our meeting with the technical staff and it is ready to be launched barring some technicality that comes up in the final computer testing phase. This is not something that one can just do half ass. This requires a lot of checks and balances. My recent post also indicated that I believed that the site would be up within this coming back.

As you said, if you would like me to start the refund process for you, I would be more than happy to do so."

----
"June 11, 2012
Katherine, thanks for your reply.

I understand that you are in a very difficult position. You have to address some very difficult people, and questions. I have always enjoyed VW and associated sites exclusively, because I consider the site and people to be the best there is. Whatever the outcome, I appreciate VW’s situation and have no intention of moving to VC.

I ask that you read my post again. I really don’t need a response, as it was merely offered as recognition and advice for your current position. I never made any statement that the repairs were taking too long or would not be done at all, nor did I make a request for a refund. I made a metaphorical statement that if the situation continues to decline I might consider it. In actuality, (personally) when it comes back up I wouldn’t pursue it at all. Renewal might be different.

The post was a statement that the community is deteriorating. While VW should be in “damage control”, you seem to go defensive and start name calling, finger pointing, or in a few cases sarcastic. This has been pointed out in quite a few posts throughout the board. Personally, I really don’t have an issue with a refund. Looking forward, a lot of the people you are offending today are the same people that you are going to be asking for money to renew their subscription in the next year.

After reading a lot of the questions, except for some asking about security of information, most seem to address when the site will be back up. People do not process the word “Soon” very well. My point was that people relate to actual times such as, “We hit a snag, and we are looking at June 22nd. “

I sincerely mean this in a constructive way. Your PR skills need some polishing.

I wish you the best of luck through this difficult process, and look forward to see the new and improved VW network."

[FaunHearst]

If you officially represent VW, then you need to begin rebuilding the credibility of VW by giving us a real date on which something will actually be launched. No smoke and mirror, not BS, but a credible commitment that is met. That needs to be followed by more credible commitments and action and no misses. Right now, VW has no credibility among its former customer base. Big talk and missed promises will gain you nothing. Let the rebuilding begin.

[jbeeaz]

Ghost! don't 'do it'[republish & upload] like zardoz1962 directed. PLEASE! Do It Right, the 2nd time; section by section. When I read his pissin & moaning posts followed with those idiotic directions, red flags came out waving and flapping. Call me paranoid if you want, but his demands for immediate restoration and specific methodology seemed too facile and could possibly constitute an activation code for a sleeper virus. Besides all that, he has no ownership authority, unknown credibility and zero responsibility to VW members if the site crashes. VW undoubtedly brought in outside tech and security specialists. Let them report that the site is ready; they have accountability to management and a professional reputation to protect.

[rezzi]

Ghost has no credibility!! Why are people still holding onto hope for a website that is never coming back?? Why are you still believing this crap???

[ericls]

The Voyeurweb... and its sister sites. matter of days now as we get tuned in.

Uhhh sister sites not including MFF!

The way I see it as is VW choosing sister sites with they feel they are not obligate in money return. As far as I see it is all bills to the place and VW is obligated to return fees for MFF.


And Moderator, if you don't post this I will file a civil claim. This topic is perfectly legit and you choosing to not publish this defeats the whole purpose of a discussion board!

[uncadee]

the sad thing is, by the time this site comes back(if ever) all the old posters will have moved on. who ever vw"s "voldmort" is he did a great job destroying a fun place. hope i'm wrong. i loved to post pics of my sexy lady and had recently started enjoying the chat rooom. sure miss the fun. haven't recieved any e-mail from vw even though i sent them my info a week ago. hope is fading.

[themission1428]

hey gamjamEB ...
i couldnt agree with you more ...
yes it is all about free of speech and all ...
but in crisis like these we cannot allow our new enemy to benefit from our bulletin board and loyal viewers like your selves.
the censorship that is taking place is the one that we beleive is going to hurt people involved in those crisis on both sides.
its just a matter of time wright now before we all go back to business as usual, once the storm clears. at least i see it that way ...
i can promise you this ... am more then a rep ... am a person that stands to principals ... i could have walked away from all this but i decided to stay for reasons of my own ... i honestly didnt need the BS ... but walking away from something i enjoyed doing for the past 6 years is hard to do. i am not a quitter neither are the owners of vw ... so mark my word that we will come back and better then ever ... and the bulletin board situation will get back like it used to be.
I am personally censoring dirty laundry out by certain people ...
you can tell me to FUCK OFF all day long and i will not censor that ...

Hey Ghost...

FUCK YOU for all the lies that Voyeurweb told us for the past few weeks.

FUCK YOU for giving us your best so called Public Relations Director Katherine who made many promises here, didn't deliver and is still with Voyeurweb. That talks about about how professional the team of Voyeurweb is and how you respect us as consumers by giving us the kind of crap Katherine did here
.
FUCK YOU for censoring post here that you THINK should not be here. You are playing god by determining which one should be censored. Thats how all dictators start ruling they site the common good and yes, they do the right thing from the beginning but becomes god later on. If you fucked up in having an unprofessional employee like Katherine what is the guarantee that you wont get FUCKED UP in determining which post are to be censored ? Human make mistakes. Your programmers are evident of that inspite of the fact that they are trained for that and same with KAtherine who supposedly is your Public Relations Officers. So that bullshit excuse you said above on why you censor some post here is bullshit. I

The reasons you gave above for your censorship are : YOU BELIEVE that will hurt both people on both sides and you dont want to give your enemy benefit from bulletin board here and loyal viewers like ourselves. hahaha ! what do you think of us to believe that stupid ? Promising by Katherine that the site will be up 4 to 7 days and is still not up yet and not giving us updates and promising again that it will be up few sundays and last wednesday is already giving your enemy a big benefit by people leaving here and subscribing to your enemy. That is the most bullshit excuse i have ever heard for censorship here. So FUCK YOU for insulting us. Liar...and bullshit artist..

FUCK YOU for giving us yourself after Katherine...The only reason why you are here writing now is because she fucked up and fucked us all with her bullshit. That bullshit Public Relations Director title she have is a scam. IF she cant do it giving her title how much more you ? As what Ronald Reagan said during the debates, " Here we go again...." Here we go again guys...after Katherine comes in the knight in shining armor the so called messiah Ghost...Same shit different dog that will fuck us again...

Its just a matter of days that Ghost will fucked us again....it all started now with his lame excuse of censorship....which is a code word for censoring us members that would post things that would look bad to Voyeurweb....

Lets us be on how many days before we will get fucked by Ghost (AKA Katherine with just a different name...) I would bet 2 weeks ...any other guesses ?

[themission1428]

Yeah ghost....for all the bullshit lies given to us by your so called Public Relations Director and you being not a quitter Like how you describe yourself....show some results here for contributor.

And dont tell us that is not part of your job function and that your priority right now is blah....blah...blah...you our loyal viewers. Thank you. Because you are not the Public Relations Director and yet you are taking over job of Katherine.

Show us good faith by producing results here for contributor.

[themission1428]

Hey Ghost, I swore I was done posting because I was convinced the site was not coming back. If you are posting as a Rep then I need to say this. Quit fucking with peoples posts, even though this mess was supposedly started by someone else, it’s still not our fault, it’s yours and with your previous employee. Anything said on this board is a valid compliant even if you or I disagree with what’s being posted and you should not censor it. You’re a fucking PORN site that stands behind everything that is free speech and freedom of expression. We built this site, we posted the pictures, we paid the money and now it’s gone but we’re the ones being censored because we’re pissed…. We should have that right. If you’re any kind of realist, you would have to agree NOTHING we have been told has come true about the re-launch, nothing. I hope you guys come back but if you don’t like what people say when you’ve fucked up, well then fuck you and get your shit straight and we'll all be friends again.

Amen.

Good morning, Ghost can you please tell my why my last 2 posts have been banned and what I did as a long time (14 year) member did. You stated that this was necessary in one of your posts to protect the menbers of this BB from members of the other BB. How does my questioning the happenings of this site warrant being banned. Thanks u4015

[redruggers]

Testing to see if I can finally get a post through. I agree with the idea that incremental progress in a few days is better than continued silent delay.

Likewise. So far, two posts have gone through out of 10-12 tries from this account.

Ghost, can you at least let us know whether you decided on the near-term partial launch or the long-term full launch. I concur with all others here who strongly prefer that you put something up soon. Look at your Alexa figures and you will see that while your daily reach is still about three times that of VC (kind of amazing, given the difference in actual content), you are falling steadily and now have about half of what you had before the crash. That will be gone in another 2-4 weeks.

If you can't keep up with the posts, don't pre-moderate. Just read the boards periodically and delete whatever violates your restrictions.

It would be nice to know what the restrictions are!

[VixenHotwife]

After all this time and all these posts...and false messages about when the site will be back up and running...
I still have faith that VW and the other sites will return.
And I still believe the cyber sabotage by the departing Igor is to blame.
Remember, he and his pals could have started a new site without crashing VW...
and their activities were and are criminal.
We members are the victims of their greed and lack of ethics and lack of honesty.
I do not know enough about international law, or internet rules, to know whether these cyber criminals will ever face justice, but I know who to blame, and it is not those trying to get VW, etc., back on line.
We could be wrong, but for the moment, I still think VW will be back.

[mole]

Ghost sounds like a creditable person and a decent exponent of VW under what must be extreme stress. VW has provided a great service for so many years that I can't see it bailing out. The long downtime is unfortunate, and for whatever reasons, it's a shame things have turned out this way, but I believe Ghost's communication is a good and positive sign the site will be restored.

[namiandan]

Totally agree Vixen. Nami and I have been here for years, and will continue to come here for years.

Good luck to to the VW crew. We are fine out here, having incredibly naughty sexual adventures just waiting to be posted.

I would like to see an answer. What is going on?? Which is it? IF you guys come back I would like to at least finish out my paid time with RC. I really want to believe things will be back and happy, but these mixed messages aren't reassuring me at all.

[ttfndudexx]

I am reading a lot about getting an e-mail with the needs of the company so they can get things up and running. Here is my question why did I find out about this whole deal with a google search. I never recieved an e-mail and I have subs to redclouds and homeclips. Aggravated about this whole deal, whatever time your down is what we should be credited with right? In any case why was I never notified having paid for this site, that should all be in a seperate file right? In any case we need to get straight answers even if it is not what we want to hear or this could be a larger legal battle than the one your fighting. VW realizes this, correct? Please just no smoke and mirrors we are all big boys and girls, shoot it straight and we will stand behind you, I have for 8 years why would I stop now. Thank you

Ghost and Kathrine (one of the same?) will have a great book and lecture series after this is all done. "How to fuck up a popular and profitable website in 30 days or less"

Or the more politically incorrect version "Why Bullshitting your customer in the online world isn't good business (They really are smarter than you think)"

[fignocchio]

Ghost definitely is a guy I have more trust in. But let's see the site, let's see something. Then I will pony up my screen name/password for RC & HC.

[gbwar]

I agree I think we are being S C R E W E D A R O U N D with one delay after another It is hard to understand small delay than NOTHING let get it up or SHUT IT DOWN and REFUND everyones membership

[Leadfingers]

If this is the same Leadfingers i have personally met him at an RC Meet and Greet and he for sure isn't Igor.

Yes, St Marys... 'tis I... Leadfingers.. .Igor incarnate!!!!!!

<ahem>

If Ghost were to have taken 30 seconds to check the customer database that they claim to have recovered, he would immediately see the name and credit card associated with my login doesn't match Igor's and that I've had this name for nigh on 10 years.

But no.. Ghost chooses to take cheap shots at thier customer base. Where exactly did you guys learn your customer relations skills?

[Punkin51]

Geez you guys/Gals! This is the best site out there, I viewed ******** and it sucks compared to what we had here. Give them the time they need to get it right!Even if they were to fuck us, what are you out?? If this was the last 50 bucks you had and you spent it on amateur porn, yer a really sad case!Hahahahaha!I don't care if I see what's her names tits either. It would be swell if the parts that are fixed were allowed to be put up for our entertainment, but if not, I'll live.Anything Igor puts up will be second rate at best. Go look for yourself! What a joke!And to the Obama downplayers, the Republicans are the ones that wanna get rid of sites like ours!! Lieberman is a great case in point! He wanted to ban Playboy for Christs sake!Put on yer big girl panties and hold yer water!Or take them off and post soon please!!
