Vaughnlive...What the Hell was Mark thinking?

I was very excited when I spoke to Mark about a month before he launched Vn.
Form everything he said it sounded like it was going to be everything that needed to be changed over on JTV.
An adult site for people over the age of 18 to do and say and more importantly broadcast what JTV wouldn't allow minus the pedos.

My first reaction once hearing this news a few month back was a deep and inspiring sigh. Finally a site worth going to and having a good time of chat and casting. Boy, was I disappointed and I am not the only one.
Mark what were you thinking?

There was an opportunity there and all you had to do was grab it and what did you do? You not only dropped the ball but you dug a hole and buried it and had your Mom cover it with cement.

I understand the not wanting to broadcast kids on your site. That's a good thing but haven't you ever visited a little "gray area" in your life?

What I heard you say was that the pedos would not be welcomed on Vn. Great! but come on. You and I both know that pedos go to feed at the trough that feeds them best. Create a site where there are no young nubile casters and doing things that no adult wants or needs to see. I have your back on that. Where you and I differ is when someone is feeling proud of a new baby (where it is likely that we all watched the pregnancy progress) or a new grandchild and they just want to show a picture or hold them up to the camera for a moment. This will not feed the pedos. If the environment is not pedos friendly they aren't going to be hanging around waiting for something that is never going to be broadcasted. It really is that easy.
Another thing...the banning binges that have happened is not site worthy they are all personal.
Think of the casters who no longer visit your site and/or cast..

TT (issues with MissScruffy) (banning him you banned others and you didn't care! Hope it was worth it)
Moonboots (issues with MissScruffy)
Vikki (MissScruffy again!)
Kel (she thinks you are an idiot with your zero tolerance)
Haskel420 (MissScruffy strikes again)
Pebbbles (as much as I cringe when I see her casting this one was just idiocy)

the list is longer but you get the drift.

It really doesn't matter what you think of these people as casters or even individuals. It really doesn't.
I personally wouldn't visit any of them except for maybe Moonboots, but you made it all personal. Many enjoy these casters.

If you made Vn as your personal playground then that's fine but don't forget eventually everyone gets called in for dinner and you are left in the dark all by yourself and your Mom of course.

Did you even think when you were handing out those globalmod/crew badges "how will this person help my site and assist me in making it grow"? Doubtful. I have been around long enough to know that the best ran social sites make it policy that the mods do not broadcast and do not interact socially with the regular chatters and we all know why this is and more importantly why it works.

I am confused why you would include your Mom as she is someone who wishes to wield her weight around like a Nazi. You know this is true. Ask anyone what their opinion is of her and where it is based.

I hope Mark you will step back and think hard about what you want out of this whole endeavor because you are losing it all really fast.

I am shocked every time I visit Vn as to the actions of your mods.
Miss Scruffy rams her way into Haskels420's cast demanding he do the right thing and take down the video he posted of a deceased caster off his blog which is way off-site from Vn and gets pissy that he said that he would not discuss it on Vn that he has a site away from Vn should she like to chat about it but she would not let it go. It says when you sign into Vn chat that there is to be no harassment but it is so apparent that that does not apply to your mods. Wabbit screams at people to "Leave!" in rooms. Really?
And what is up with all these mods jumping into rooms as if they are The All Mighty and everyone has to watch  their P's and Q's and wait till they leave so the room can get back to having a good time.

I don't know anything about Roadhammer except that he is obsessed about his v-coins worth and wants everyone to know what it is.. It's the first and some times the only thing he will post in a room. I mean really?.
I know Wabbit from JTV and this really wasn't a good choice. Think back Mark. Really? Wabbit??
Then there is Bubbles. What a waste of space that chick is (it's a chick right?).
Mojo??? I have heard rumors that he forked over some dough and  that's why he now wears his badge but that really smells of net-poo but whatever.

Since actions speak louder than words it does appear that you believe that this mojocondensending, its ridiculous.

So lets see who are the casters that you are relying on to bring in the cash and viewers...

Cortneye (drunk and rude.)
Fridolay (arrogant ass who needs a leash so he doesn't get lost)
Ricco36 (one trick pony and everyone has seen the trick..next!)
Roco (you can find this same show but better by hanging out at your local rescue mission)
PBJ (drunk, rude and sloppy. Admits she lies and would sell you down the river in an instant)
Laggie (she's good but life has stepped in and she hasn't been casting and when she does its late nights only)
The_breeze ( please don't make me state the obvious)
LA Nights (ok you might have a chance with him but as decent as he is he cant carry a site)

Good luck Mark. You are really going to need it should you continue down this road and it looks like you are.

Go to Vn at any time of day or night and its a ghost town, When tina_weezer is the #1 caster for over an hour you know that the fat lady has sung and no one is asking for an encore.
