its because of them and and their boyfriends...
long story short, I shot this chick last Jan or so... it was a starter shoot as SHE wanted to do her own personal site... and she got paid for the video so I have all the releases and legal crap to go with it...
well the video goes public and the local scene has a SHITFIT... (mostly guys that she turned down now are up her ass becuase they got denied and are giving her shit)...
ok so being a nice guy I take the video/photos down and give her 6 MONTHS to payback what I paid her and then i'll give her the videos and rights back... I dont give a fuck... but as I already got dicked out of time, and extra $$ in trying to set her up with her own personal site I was just really irritated with the whole deal and just wanted it done...
well months and months go by... not a single dime, not an email or contact saying "here's some $$ can you hold off?" or even in seeing her at shows did I even get a single mention or even a "sorry about that, here have a drink" in doing her a favor...
so at that point im ready to say fuck it and release it...
I give her 2 more months, and I still have shit to show for it...
the video goes live and I never hear from her again...
until her boyfriend emails tonight... in a nice, but kinda fucked off email...

hey i doubt you remember me but Im apes fiancee and i was really hoping that youd do me a huge favor and take off everything that has to do with apes the only reason im asking is cuz were about to ahve a son and i dont want my son to ever hear anything of her mother ever doing anything remotely related to porn i mean im sure youve made more than your money back for her video cuz just about everyone in cleveland has seen it already so will you please take it down were getting our names out of the dirt right now in the light of us having a lil shit head in a lil bit if you could do this that would be amazing i hope youll be an understanding man about this thanks
so of course with all of the pre-mentioned in mind... I figure it better to reply and I do so with:
Body: heya... not to sound like a dick... but business is business... she had a chance to buy me out a year ago and really gave two shits on doing so...
so as it's been way more of a pain in the ass then it has been worth any $$ from the site its staying up as I do have her signed releases, her ID as her permission to use said media otherwise...
I'm not a bank where I pay models and then give them the videos back if they do/dont sell or if they want them down off the site...
this is a business that SHE wanted to get into and I busted my ass trying to get HER a personal site running... she then backed out on me which cost me more than what I paid her and I spent too much time with the bullshit SHE wanted to do in running her own site...
so honestly I shouldn't have even given her a chance to buy me out... but I figured as I friend I'd offer it... and I gave her 6 months to buy me out for the rights to the video that I paid her for, and she didn't give me one cent back...
so as she showed 0 interest in doing so and ditched out on me again as well, its not my problem anymore...
again not to sound like a dick, but if she wanted it down she had plenty of time to do something about it before now...

well that was probably a bit harsher than I should have gone off about... but whatever...
maybe this will explain more of why I stay away from the local scene anymore...
ugh...
