I really hope that isn't the case, and I really desperately hope that Epoch will soon hire somebody that really understands the value of PR and how silence, bad decisions, and pettiness can do serious damage to a company's reputation in a community that is already fractured, dramatic, and gossip-laden as the gay adult webmaster community is.
I really do think this is the case afterall, Epoch had nothing else to base their choice on.

I never even submitted a processing application to them because before I could, i was told they werent interested in working with me.

One can only assume because I publicly announced that the direction they were headed with the GayVN summit was wrong, a direction which even they themselves later agreed with and reversed course :eek:

So in effect, even though they realized a lot of us were right and they kind of did listen by reversing course, those of us who were vocal whilst this was all going on had better not want to process any sales through Epoch because they wont be interested in working with any of us it seems.
