AFF sold?

[Jim]

First thing that sticks out to me is that they claim to take annual revenue and triple it to come up with a price. The next obvious thing is that it sold for a Billion dollars.

Interesting comments on on that url, i wonder if the new owners will be just as corrupt.

[Linkster]

The new owners is supposedly Safeway Inc - setting up kiosks in their grocery stores for "dating matches"

Well, Penthouse buying it seems to make more sense :)

[Jim]

Oh yeah...the 500 million figure looks better too :)

[Bobc01]

Looks like someone is planning to sue AFF on that GFY board.

I won't post the link as it seems there are alot of fuckheads on there posting up dead cat pics.

[Toby]

Looks like someone is planning to sue AFF on that GFY board.And it's a rather notable someone, just not sure if they have the resources to fight a costly and lengthy legal battle againt the deep pockets of AFF.

Well good luck to them if they do and i hope they win.

Would be interesting to find out what other shit AFF have been upto other than the well known illegal tactics.

[Bobc01]

On the subject of AFF, anyone seen the piss take sites like..

redneckfriendfinder.com
bumfriendfinder.com

No clue on who is knocking these up but they're funny as fuck. |jester|

[digifan]

Wow.. it takes a long way to earn the trust again.

I figure he has only some slightly less deep pockets also.|catfight|

Two things catch my eye.
- ZANG0
- the timing in the middle of a sale

A big player yes, but I'm not so sure his pockets are all that deep anymore. Although it does seem somewhat appropriate that one scumbag would go after the other.

If my "little birdy" is correct the AFF deal actually occured about six months ago, so adjust your analysis of the timing accordingly.

[Bobc01]

Oh ok, i didn't realise it was another scumbag sueing.

First impression of the GFY board was they're probably people that trigger my spam filter.

[tickler]

And now, apparently not...., or maybe in the future!|dizzy|

Where there's smoke there's fire. I have a feeling that we'll revisit this within the next 3 to 6 months and go, "ahhhh so that's what happened."

why get a billion when you can screw over 1 million

I doubt Lars even knows. BTW this is old news. The sale was a done deal earlier this year.

It aint no rumor.

That moron will blow it all on oxy or what ever other drug he is addicted to now.

The likelyhood of anyone buying that program is slim. Its been up for sale seriously for the last 2 years.

No takers.

Yall get out your towels and wipe those condesending grins off your face.

I told you so!!!
