Exactly...I own ALL my photos. I have scouted my OWN photographers. PAID them myself. Which is why I used them for Sheri's and for my Model Mayhem, my Webcam, my own site, my SG, DN, BR, youtube, (the other board), etc.. This aint the only place I post the same pics. If I didn't own all my own rights, why Is my profile NOT up at Sheri's Ranch still??? Seriously?

I mean c'mon, there's practically more moderators then active members. Besides, t basically runs itself anyway.
I do agree though, hof should have to pay for all the advertising his people do here.

Posts: 1004 Actually, I have no idea what is involved in running a board. However, I do not see any other group stepping up to honor LPIN in general in a rather unbiased (or at least nonprofit) way. It is certainly appearing persona non-grata from some of the posters in the biz these days.

JSBach Hoser Family Member « Reply #21 on: January 22, 2013, 01:38:30 AM » Posts: 542This is a very immature move by Dennis, but it doesn't surprise me. I seriously doubt he owns the copyright to any of these pictures. If anything, he probably is granted a license to use them when the ladies sign their contract. He likely wouldn't have exclusive ownership, so wouldn't be able to make demands like this. However, as a site owner myself, I can understand taking them down to avoid the headache of dealing with someone like Dennis.
He only hurts the ladies and by extension himself by doing this. You ladies should take this into consideration. He is putting his petty need for revenge above your ability to promote yourselves. Is this the kind of person you want to work for?

I never had a signature here. Doesn't bother me. Honestly my best clients are the "lurkers" of this board who like me for speaking my mind. I will still do the same. I understand the "only hurting the ladies" part. I think Sonja will care big time but other girls in the house don't care or care to post here. It's just another fight amongst 2 men. Same ol story.. I personally think IB is making a lot of work for himself and crew. But I ain't quitting my job over any of it.

Re: To head off any questions and outrage against me...
Hoser Family Member « Reply #23 on: January 22, 2013, 05:05:55 AM » Posts: 3102 Gender: Male I only ride 'em, I don't know what makes 'em work.OK, in the grand scheme of things, this board isn't nearly as popular (in membership totals) as certain house boards. We currently have 1254 registered members. While the vast majority of these never or almost never post, and a large number of these are no longer active in LPIN, I'd say that about 5-10% of those drop in at least once every month or two to see what's up.
Note from Admin
That being said, this board/website is VERY prominent in Google searches on some LPIN topics (Example: typing Nevada Brothel Forum into Google has this website as the first search result, with Sheris #2). There are a lot of people who never register on this site that nonetheless read what's here, and I'm sure find this site helpful in locating the various brothels in Nevada, and what is involved in LPIN (how it works, general ideas about pricing, etc.).
Note from Admin
This website provides free advertising to a number of independent contractors and bothels alike. Of course, the downside to this is that potential patrons might also learn how to negotiate more agressively in a brothel situation (i.e. let the big head do the thinking instead of the little one), but I'd argue that getting people in the door is the hard part; convincing them to stay and party falls on the Courtesans themselves (being fair in the negotiation, not scaring off potential customers, etc. etc. etc.).
Again, admittedly this website accounts for a small fraction of LPIN customers as a whole. HOWEVER, amongst repeat customers at fraction is significantly higher, as those who participate in this hobby are more likely to utilize this website for information.
I've seen Dennis make a number of decisions where he has put his own ego above what is best for his business model. Said decisions have cost him a few customers, but in business this happens. That being said, a good businessman (or businesswoman) in a customer oriented business reaches out to his (her) clientele when possible in a welcoming and warm manner to make their customers feel valued and welcome. Sure, some clients aren't worth keeping, but most are, as repeat customers are very helpful to the bottom line.
As his ego has compelled him to participate in this website in a less than friendly fashion at times, and as the rest of us like the drama to be kept to a dull roar at best, and as this website caters to ALL brothels, not just Team Bunnyranch brothels, the moderators here have determined that Dennis' posts are often counterproductive to promoting a friendly environment on this website/forum. Sure, other house managers/owners have said unflattering things at times, but not as consistently as was going on fairly recently when Dennis was 'untethered'.
While I'd argue that this should cut both ways, it's not my website and I'm not a moderator here. IB chooses to host this website for our benefit, and as he pays the bills, he sets the rules.
But I digress. My point here is that brothels do see a benefit in allowing their contractors to post/advertise here, and by not allowing them to participate fully these contractors will lose out on the opportunity to attract some new customers via this website. Again, on the surface it might not seem like a large number, but keep in mind the huge number of 'lurkers' that drop in thanks to Google, learn about LPIN, and then visit a brothel at some point. Most of these lurkers won't ever join this board, as this hobby has a stigma associated with it, and they feel they can't afford the risk of being found out. By not joining, and by not calling attention to themselves, they can remain anonymous and be secure in that anonymity.
So I think that Team Bunnyranch is being a little short sighted here. Sure, bad press does also generate customers, but good press is so much better. I would suggest that Dennis needs to take a chill pill and let his contractors do what they do best, that is lure men into their beds, at whichever establishment they work at. By letting his 'independent' contractors maintain their independence and promote themselves wherever (legally) possible, this helps out all of the contractors around them, and everyone benefits.
Plus, for those of us that share our good experiences here, this helps make future prospective customers who googled their way here feel that much more secure in choosing LPIN over more risky options, and everyone wins.
So I'd recommend that Dennis not let his feud with IB carry over to his contractors. As pointed out, while IB does maintain and pay for this site, it is a group effort, and many members of this group do support his operations from time to time. Again, in the grand scheme of things we aren't talking huge numbers, but anything that increases the bottom line, especially if it is 'free', is almost always a good marketing move.
Team Bunnyranch, are you ABSOLUTELY SURE you want to surrender this ground to the other Brothels?

IB don't let them get you down, he seems to have no problem throwing his weight around when it suits him, but don't tell him how to do or he'll make a scene, very nice . It's ashamed that Hof has had to go this route, it'll definitely hurt his business some. I've always liked this board compared to the other boards, at least here they don't seem to magically disappear without you knowing what happened. To Madison, you've been on this board for over a year now and you know how it is and how it's operated. You also have eyes and a brain (I'm assuming) so you should know how to separate fact from fiction. It always amazed me that on the Bunny Boards discourse is not allowed and rigid rules of conduct are in force, but come over here and have a little of his own medicine applied to him and he freaks out, boo fucking hoo. It also amazes me that with four brothels, several other businesses, and lots of TV and media time, he's getting so bent out of shape at this site, go figure. Also you said in a previous post that Mr. Hof doesn't allow his girls to post on here, if that's true how come you're still posting on here? .

J ust by the way, During two recent visits to Exit 28, I had the occasion to individually meet and speak with Susan and Lance. Strange as it seems, both thanked me for visiting the Mustang/Wildhorse. And BOTH knew who I was.
Yes Sperm I did visit and party at the LRN. Why? Simple, that is where one of my ATF's works. I went to see her, not Dennis. Was it worth the trip, Hell yeah! I don't like most of Dennis' antics but I don't take them personal. You choose not to visit any of Dennis' houses, that's OK with me. It's YOUR choice. Why try to force your choices on me? Interested Bystander knows I partied at LRN because I told him personally. His response? He asked me about the party not Dennis. He didn't even suggest where I should party.
Note from Admin: When I talked to IB he told me he fired you as a moderator, because you were to easy on Dennis. Is this true or not. Were you fired from the moderation team? If so what reason did he give you?

IB is not banning anyone! Dennis has demanded that all of HIS copyrighted photos of ladies be removed from the board.
Note from Admin: I think when anyone is put on moderation that can be in effect being banned. Q has had me in that mode for a couple of years. He will claim i'm not banned. I can read the board but I am blocked from posting on the board. To me this is effectively being banned. I believe that Dennis is/was in that state. He could read and maybe even make a post but it will only be posted after the moderators read it and if they agree with it. If Dennis doesn't post something they find agreeable then it will never be posted. In my case I can read the board, but I have no access to the reply prompt.

I count 5 moderators including IB. According to the membership statistics, there are 20 people with 1000 posts. 58 with 500, and 80 with 300. The mods are out numbered anywhere from 5 - 1 to 200 - 1 with what could be considered active posters. That's a lot of work for no pay provided by people with life in the real world considering the subject matter and occasional nonsense displayed around here. My hat's off to them, most particularly, IB who administers this site at a personal cost to himself and wonderful wife Sheri.
