Trying to get in touch with them (Josh), pretty sure they’ve disbanded but in case someone knows otherwise? Looking for any insight anyone might have. Thanks in advance!
Once upon a time long ago Fratmen had an over the top party at the Phoenix Forum which was supposedly to help sell to mind geek. Last I heard the owner put a lot of money into a app that flopped and then one day all our links stopped working many year ago. No idea what is going on but haven’t heard their name in a few years.
Thanks Mark, we were actually a part of one of those over the top parties at the ‘fratpad’ but I appreciate the input, I hadn’t heard about the app that flopped, makes sense they may just be flat out gone. Just going above and beyond to try n be sure commissions reach folks but everything so far has been a dead end.
The last time we heard from Fratmen was when we posted that they were dead. They got really mad and commented all over our everything… and promptly disappeared again.
Our CCBill links still generate a small amount of cash. Just enough, really, that I don’t forget they exist.
No, they just disappeared. I think it was a couple of the models who took over but it never came to anything for some reason. I’m surprised the sites are still up, I didnt think they worked.
Ya, i’m surprised the sites are still running too since it’s been crickets for years.
Thanks, appreciate your input everyone!
Aren’t the guys who started GayHoopla former Fratmen models? I think they know what happened there but I also think they’re not allowed to talk about it, maybe due to a NDA?
Wow… I must have been called. So… Fratman/Fratpad was owned by my former boss John Marsh… no idea where he is now. Two guys left and started GayHoopla which is still going to this day (they’re doing amazing, actually).
Yes but it was not in that order.
Two guys started Gay Hoopla while Fratmen was still going with the old owner.
Fratmen continued for a while then someone else took over which then disappeared.
Ah, the seldom seen Fratmen post stumbles into the clearing, bleary-eyed and naked, as if recovering from a wild party ending just hours before.
This happens once in a while, although usually it’s someone claiming to be “rebooting” the site and wanting us all to promote it again. Then come the words of warning that they’ll run away with all your cash in a few months, and the obligatory “but their guys are hot and if it sells…” from fresh-faced and hopeful new affiliates, just as we all were once upon a time.
They never lived through the horror, “you weren’t there, man! You don’t know what it was like!”
I think it’s fair to say that brand is deader than the deadest dead thing. Although, if there ever was a zombie apocalypse I’m sure Fratmen/Fratpad would reappear once more looking to trade gas and canned food for subscriptions.
