But we didnt.

We got a statement, passing the blame on to CCBill for not being able to agree on a format with some other companies.

The question as to why this group of individuals decided, in backrooms, to directly compete with the Gay Phoenix Forum, even though they were by all accounts, happy with how the show was being operated, hasnt been answered.

The answer to many of us is clear, but these companies just dont have the balls to come right out and say it, they wanted to get the Gay Phoenix Forum cancelled to further their own needs, rather than the needs of the gay adult industry.

You can at least respect someone who tells it like it is, shying away from this discussion for almost 2 weeks then suddenly coming out, in force and not really answering any of the questions being asked just doesnt cut it.

These companies were very public in announcing their 'show' yet when the tough questions started to get asked, nobody wanted to answer them publicly.. Instead, almost 2 weeks later, they tell us that they want to answer them behind closed doors.

I just dont see what the big deal is with the main companies involved (Cybersocket, Epoch, AVN) in getting the Gay Phoenix Forum cancelled just coming right out and saying they only launched their show in October to make money and to profit off the success of the Gay Phoenix Forum and off the gay webmaster community, to the detriment of the gay webmaster community but to their benefit.
