I've been casting around looking for a video from about July 2020. I have no idea who made it or what it was called which has made it slightly hard to track down. Any help would be appreciated.
I think those were by former member 123gunge, who's site was I think called Ministry Of Mess. A while back he completely misunderstood what UMD Premium is, and stormed off in a huff. You can still find his old posts if you search for 123gunge, but the links in them now seem to lead to C4S generic stores index, so guessing has shut down.
in terms of "what happened to..." this is one that can probably be answered as he was very public in some of his reasons for leaving
basically the card regs that came in last year driven by MC/Visa that all stores have to comply to and subsequent ban of one category or another on sites like clips4sale
his point was a very fair one that a producer could go out; shoot some content (which can be quite expensive) and then before it's even put out... a rule could change on what is permitted.
which is true, happened to me, I had to do some select edits of some of my clips
He's also spoken at how a lot of things like OF harshly under cut a lot of the traditional studios. Y'know, you can follow someone for $3 in a sale an access hundred of clips for fuck all.
He felt this was a good time to call it a day
--------------
Reading between the lines, I also got the vibe he has been doing this a long long time (in fact, I know he has) and that perhaps with a lot of the changes and everything and there maybe not be the money in this there was some years ago he felt it's time to do something else
Love you, too
