On their Bare-Back feed 2 of the movies do not work Bare Back Lover and Bare Hotel, a viewer just e-mailed me about it. Dose anyone else see other problems with movies not playing? And can someone from ABEN please fix this problem for us? I send them a e-mails and looked for my rep online but sometimes they are hard to get a hold of. :cry:
Their support sucks and I am not surprised there is still problems. I couldn't get any of the bare back lover ones to work. I must say though their updates are working better than they were a couple months ago.

I have had nothing but problems with AEBN lately. I've been a happy customer of theirs for two years until now.
I can't change my address in the system so I had to email someone numerous times, they never responded, they sent out a check to my old address. I emailed them saying I wasn't paying until they change my address and send a new check. Now my feeds are off.
My account says my "agent" there is daniel.fairchild@aebn.net though it says my "contact" is angelica@aebn.net though the emails I have gotten have been from KellyT@aebn.net and melissa.anderson@aebn.net
Is it so difficult to have one person take care of every aspect of your account? I know that if it's this difficult to change my address in their system it will be next to impossible to have them re-issue a replacement check, that's why I refuse to pay now until this is done. Quite an unfortunate situation with them.
And back on topic, I don't know anything about the new AEBN error sorry.
Wow that sucks sorry to hear that. It really shouldn't be that hard to get one person to change your address. Most programs you can change it yourself but I guess AEBN is another story.Quote:

Anyone know of a good gay feeds company with a large variety of content?
Hum AEBN feeds are good to have but a pain in the ass as you know. My members love the PluginFeeds they are always on my top 10 and I have never had any problems with them. Their feed His First Gay Experience is currently #1 on my sites :)Quote:

Thanks for the info Mark I've sent them an email to get some pricing. Looks like I'll need content from a couple other feed companies as well to take AEBN's place.Quote:

I'm not one to air dirty laundry but it seems many others are having these same issues.
We've been online with AEBN as a producer for just 3 or 4 months now, and so far, we've had pretty good luck. They are definitely slow to respond in most cases, but our rep has been very helpful.

Someone should be testing the updates they do to make sure they did them right, hey ABEN how about you give me 100$ every time I find a error I think it would pay for my feeds evey month :thumbsup:
Well AEBN is still the best source out there now.
There has been some kind of shake up over there. I was told that the company quietly changed hands about 3 months ago.
That problem that we had with one of our titles going off line for no reason. Just got fixed.
It took over 4 months of calls and e mails and posts on here to make it happen.
I think that they do a fair job considering all that they have to do for all of us.
Lets hope that the they get all there ducks back in a row again soon for all our sake!!
It might help if you got their name right. It's AEBN, not ABEN. Helps to remember that it's an acronym for Adult Entertainment Broadcasting Network...Quote:

and then there's the feeds - for months last year we got regular complaints that our feeds were down. the complaints were almost always in the early morning, pretty much every day so we started checking our feeds and damn if they weren't down pretty much every morning. that was never fixed and i've heard other people complain about this on a regular basis.
Hey, Will here, from AEBN. Please hit me up on ICQ with your issues, and I'll see what I can do to get them all sorted out!

thank you

To let everyone know I am still getting an error with the leased feeds. I am being charged bandwidth on 2 feeds I'm not even using. I was using them and the bandwidth was ridiculous. My straight site which is just a bonus site was getting twice as much bandwidth as my most popular gay feed so I took it down 2 months ago and sure enough it is still getting bandwidth. Check these 2 feeds if you use any of the straight feeds.

Heterotica
I also noticed PornStar Planet was running incredibly high and I am linked to it. So the links are coming down and we will see how much bandwidth it still registers. Seriously they need to fix alot of things over there.
Mark
Interesting that all the sudden AEBN is monitoring this thread and responding. It's good to hear that the people having problems are finally getting some responsiveness from them.
Sean and Mark, please update everyone with whatever happens.
sean,
i haven't heard from you and i can't fix something if i don't know exactly what's going on. email me screenshots of these errors or at least a login to your site so i can see if it's something on your set up that i can have our tech team try and recreate.
thanks,
kelly
Glad AEBN is looking into these problems.
Mark
