Does anyone have more details? <link> As I pointed out above, the biggest single problem with the site currently is the girl photographer (does anyone actually know who she is?) who has been taking these photos and videos with her iPhone and behaving completely unprofessionally during every shoot. So any set where she is not involved is going to seem a lot better, by comparison. And, obviously, there is a totally different photographer shooting this set in Mexico which explains why this set looks more like the FTV of old. I suppose if they get outsi...

Rob gives them a road map as to what the site is about, what users wanted from it, the process of doing it right, and the fact that he did it, essentially, alone, is a real embarrassent for the people there, now, because I know there's more than one person covering it all. I hope that whomever is handling FTV at this point finds that article quick and starts doing the stuff as Rob laid out. Maybe drop THEM an email with the link!

At least 12 years ago from googling "Rob Simyar Interview" Hi again Casting Fan. You have shown why that article could not possibly answer anything I asked about, as it was written 12 years ago (and I had already read it anyhow). Everything is different and horrible during this current phase of FTVGirls and that article was an interview of how Rob was doing everything when he was in control and the site was working well. Also, Rob never mentioned anything about "recycling material" as if it were new in that piece, which was the only question I had about wha...

There were occasional shoots done by other people but it's within the last four or five years that Rob actually sold FTV Girls. It's one thing to have pics taken before still up on the site. They're buried under years of other material. But to have that shoot resurrected and placed front and center on the main page of the website, which is what they do with these "new" sets, promoted it like it just happened? That might cause problems. I wondered if these girls were at least made aware that their old material was being released again and how that might impact their lives, especi...

  casting_fan wrote: Im honestly shocked it still exists and does updates given that Rob left years ago I would honestly ask, why you think that. The concept, the driving force of the FTVGirls site was a sound idea. It was different from other sites, it featured fresh, new girls regularly, it had good photo and good video and the quality remained high long after Rob exited. It's been, what? 13 or 14 years if I'm not mistaken... but Rob was still sort of in the loop even after that, which I think is what helped keep the standards high. I'm not sure when he completely left but if you scroll through this thread, he was still posting pics of upcoming sets, so he was probably still shooting some of those well after he "departed." Now, it seems l...

Rob had a mission and that was exactly it... nothing phony, no excessive moaning or "acting" for the camera. Just let these girls do what they do to get off, however that is, with as little or as much noise as they would do in their real lives. That is what made the site both different from everybody else and made it worth checking in with, regularly. And Rob was willing to pay to have these girls come to Scottsdale and shoot, and that is a big problem now. The site, seems to be relying on the girls paying their way, possibly shooting on location so they don't have to travel (which also lowers the quality control, since s...

  The FTVGirls era has come to an end. I am going to point out the reasons why and give a brief eulogy. The very first issue is in selecting models. Maybe girls interested in starting are now going straight online either to OF or to a cam site and are getting involved in that way. It saves a trip (and some explanation to their friends and relatives) as to why they're leaving town for a weekend. But the models they get (especially since they are continuing to post remastered sets from previous years) are obviously not the same caliber as those earlier ones. Or, could it be that Rob used to pay for the plane tickets to get these girls to AZ and this new group is just grabbing whoever is around the neighborhood because they don't want to spend ...

  studrams wrote: ^ Your questions don't make a lot of sense but here goes. The fact that Rob sold FTV Girls is well known throughout the industry. Selling the site includes the rights to the name, whether or not the new owners continue to call it FTV Girls is their decision. He no longer owns the site, why would he be concerned about quality control? His actual profession has absolutely nothing to do with the porn industry and FTV Girls was something he started doing as a hobby. What he chose to include in any sale is his decision, he undoubtedly has access to material that was never released. It's not available anywhere. The site is still called FTV Girls, why would they change their application process for prospective models. The discussi...

Rob was definitely going to do it, but then, nothing. And the other point is he removed a lot of the FTVX material from the main site or he might have just made them unlisted, for what some of us thought was preparation for this new version. But there's no way that site will ever go now, and I think it's for two reasons. One, the site would have a lot of material from three, five or even ten years ago. While certain collectors interested in a particular model might want those sets, that's not a very profitable thing to do, unless you were serious abo...

  Regarding the lifetime of porn, I think it's one thing for a girl to shoot a scene and sign a release and have it available forever on some site. We can argue the issues of that and whether that's even fair after a certain length of time, but the reason that argument isn't that important is that as the tech and equipment have improved, there's less interest in older material, so there is likely less interest in those older sets and they will fade away because people want fresh and new stuff shot with state of the art photography. The possible problem comes when sets are remastered and are promoted as if they are new. I think it's right that some models will not care if material they shot from five or ten years ago gets a repost, especially...

  I want to congratulate the people here who kept berating Rob about the FTVX site. Nice going. You chased him from here. Think about this. Back in 2004 or so, it was perfectly legit for a site to open and to not be up to speed. In fact, a lot of sites open that simply didn't work. Remember the fail whales of twitter and the everything of myspace? Today, that's not how it goes. Everyone expects the site to be functioning at top level from the first visit. Also, the point is, your website is your calling card. It's a reflection of you. So it's the right of the webmaster to hold off until it's right. And it's not up to YOU to decide what that is, because it's not YOUR site. If you want to open a site, you get to do it your way. Just because he...

  Rob - congrats on all the great work you do. Really impressed with the outdoor/public shots you get as they can't all be easy, neither for you nor the model! Sometimes, they seem like dares more than anything! But, you've done them for so long, it seems like you pull it off with only small issues and the shots always come off brilliantly. A couple of quick ones. I noted that recently you brought &quot;Sophia&quot; back for another shoot but, as I remember she was just tagging along with Cortney who was originally assigned the shoot and they were shot together for December 2013. Did Cortney decide this wasn't for her and quit the business or will she also be back some time? And I guess I wonder about the naming or really renaming of the mode...
