WTF?!

 


So this happened: Yesterday, an instagram user shared a short clip from one of our original videos, and some guy left a comment voicing his displeasure. He didn't leave it at that, though. He made things up and lied.

Here is the comment in full:


This makes me sad and angry. And it bothers me a lot more than it should, that's why I need a moment to vent.

Let's go through this. We start at the bottom:

- "start sharing [these] videos [...] to lower their commercial value [and make] a statement that for overpriced half-ass work there will not be a public"
WTF?! You don't need to like our videos. If you don't like them don't buy them. But don't urge others to break the law.

- "bizarre prices"
$15 for a 15 minute clip is perfectly normal. In fact, most ballbusting clips at clips4sale cost more. Bizarre?! Are you kidding me?!

-  "it's two guys trying to make money"
Yes! Toby and Fluffy are professionals. This is their job! They are doing this to make money - and they enjoy doing their job!

- "what you are seeing is not two guys having ballbusting fun"
Again: Are you kidding me?! Obviously, they are having fun. Here's my career advice: If you think that you can't have fun while doing your job then you should start looking for a new job.

- "[These] films are produced by a blogger [whose] only intention is to make money"
Fuck you. Fuck you! How dare you! I don't make money with these clips. I spend money to make them. I have never earned a cent with my blog. I have been doing this for more than 10 years, and I have spent so much time and so much money (literally thousands of dollars!) on producing content for this blog. You might say: Well, that is your choice. And I'll reply: Yes, it is. You might say: Nobody is making you do it. And I'll reply: That's right, I'm doing it because I like it. But if you say: You are only doing this to make money, I say: FUCK YOU!

 
There, I needed to get it off my chest. I feel better now. It's funny how one person can ruin your day.

If you are unhappy with our videos you have every right to be. But don't spread lies about me! 

Instead: Make better ones. I would gladly spend money to buy them and support your work.

 

P.S.: If you want to post material from our clips please talk to me and get my permission first (alex@ballbustingboys.org).

Hey Alex! Sorry that a vitriolic troll ruined your day *hugs*. I appreciate that you took the time to vent since trolls often forget (or act like they don't care...) that they're attacking actual people.

That guy's entire rant was so nonsensical, I HOPE he was just being a troll to be provocative, otherwise I'd feel sorry for him with such absurd logic. Trying to throw people producing (quality!) content under the bus for... what, exactly? Charging a reasonable amount? Wanting to make money? Being straight? (f-ing really, why was that relevant to point out??) It also baffles me how people have the time to write such garbage for something they presumably don't like. I don't know about most people, but when I come across something on the huge ocean of the internet I don't care for, I just click away and move on with my life, not write frantic, lie-filled rants.

The fact that he tried to twist it into personal attacks on your character is just the last straw. Keep up the great work and thank you for all of your efforts.

PS: At least you can rest assured that in the time it took you to write this at least a dozen guys probably made a mess all over their shirts from something in your decade-long archive of stories, polls, videos, hosted artwork, etc; pretty sure your cumshots-per-hour metric is quite high ;)

Dear Alex,

How one person can change and ruin a moment. Did that person succeed? Maybe for that one moment. But that's over now. Unfortunately the internet can mask people, and can be such a cruel place. With that being said, this is a beautiful community full of people who love you, and the work that you do.

I feel sad that that person attacked you. That individual knows nothing about you, or the lengths and skills that go into making those videos. Please Alex, only look on here to see how many of us both love and appreciate you. I'm sorry that person attacked you, the work that you put into the creation, and the actors Toby and Fluffy put into it.

Sometimes it can be hard because the "one comment that's negative" can cut you, and leave a mark. All you need to do is look at the hundreds, maybe thousands of comments that you receive each and every year. It's amazing the community that you have built.

Lean on us all you want, we will hold you up and won't let you fall.

Hugs my dear friend.

Sincerely,

Jimmy

Thank you so much, guys! That one comment almost ruined my weekend. You saved it. You are awesome! :-))

Alex, that’s outrageous. Crazy how much noise some mean little dudes will make when they’re anon on the web. How about we make a video of you booting him in his tiny nuts and make him buy it at full price;)

Sorry it dragged you down man. You are awesome.

Remember Rule of Politics #1:

It is always easier to talk/complain/promise than to actually do anything.

That rule applies here.

Thanks for your support, guys! The user has since deleted his comment. I hope that means he understands he was wrong. :-))
