MY STYPID FUCKING LAUNCH PARTY

Post by LAYLA JADE »

Hey there guys,
Layla~Jade here. And an extremely fucking pissied off Layla~Jade at that !
Well, what a disaster that was yesterday... and through no fault of my own may I add...
How long have I been trying to get this site up for now ? The answer ? to long, and after my supposed "Website designers" and business partner having well over 7 months to sort out a site that they originally said would be up in 2 weeks !!! this was the result.
The launch part kicked off with a couple of problems with the webcam, which I had, had to sort of personally myself as they were so clearly incapable, but that's as maybe, I soon got it fixed.
Webcam 32 was my chosen program as I am familiar with it from such places as big brother xxx, fantasy 121, and every other webcam shoot that I have done. Also as it has its own chat I thought "Hey, Ideal". Only one problem, my website guy had not taken any notice of my desire to use the pre programmed chat and had gone on to the internet and got some dodgy chat from somewhere of which he failed to tell me that he didn't have the registration details and consequently no-one at our had any control over the chat.
However, on going live I had no idea of this as nobody had bothered to tell me.
So, I go live, I try to log in as myself and..... I cant. Because, not only is there someone else in there talking as Layla~Jade but also there are others in there talking as Lay, Layla, Layla-Jade @ LJ.
I have to log into my own fucking chat room as 1) Ethel & eventually 2) web administrator. Great. Not !
So while Lay, Layla-Jade, Layla & Layla~Jade are all busy welcoming people into my chat as me, I am getting told to fuck off by the other people in there !!!
Eventually I manage to get the message through that these people are bogus, and when it comes to light that I clearly have no control over the chat, a couple of people just start blatantly taking the piss out off me and it all goes down from there.
To be honest with you though I don't blame them. I blame the people that have designed my site and my business partner who promised me to get things sorted.
If I went to the official launch party of a British porn star, one that clearly loves what she does and wants to give something back to her fans, and she couldn't even control her own chartroom, & despite her requests, & her team of people, her webcam was on constant refresh, Well I'd probley start taking the piss a bit too.
So I did my best and it wasn't working, once again because of their incompetence I was made to look like a total idiot. But my web people & business partner don't care do they, its not their name on the lines, they just want the money.
So I phoned up the webdesigner and said, "I'm not playing this game, sort the chat out" he said he would. said he would kick all the users and make it so they had to log in on another name, which still meant I couldn't log in as me, as all the previous names would be barred. He phoned me back. He couldn't even do that. So I said "et it sorted and I'll go back on.
" hours later it still wasn't sorted. With that chat we couldn't even kick the users.
It was time to revert back to my original request, what I had wanted all along... webcam 32" but with over a weeks notice on the launch of the site, they didn't know how to active it.
We agreed that I would go back on the cam until that chat was up. In my mind I was giving them 1 hour of me without chat on the cam, if it wasn't sorted then, then I was pulling the site.
It didn't even get that far. I couldn't get back on the net and still have not been able to since, It appears that my server has gone down or something. I'm writing this on a friends pc at the moment. I cant even check my emails. Let alone update my uk site.
My point being is that if they had listened to me in the first place instead of just steam rollering ahead, like they have over so many other issues, instead of consulting me first, and then just telling me its been done. If they had done what I asked then this would have never had happened in the first place.
I've come near to going with someone else so many times but haven't cos they were friends. Look where we are now.
I'm the one with egg on my face, not them. Its me that's been left devasted not them.
So there we are on things, I'm not gonna post much more as my mate needs his pc back.

After a day like that, Layla, I'm surprised you didn't go US Postal. I'd certainly feel like breaking something. Hope it all works out for you.

Sounds familiar!

A friend of mine has a small model agency and it took his twat designer five months to get a working site up. How many pages? Five!! (I wrote him a fully working site in 14 hours but his business partner fucked it off). Eventually, they had to threaten this designer with court proceedings to finally sort things out. Not the sort of thing they wanted to do, but they paid for a service which was not satisfactory and they had no choice. In 24 hours all the problems were solved and the designer even added a couple of pages for free.

You should definitely get a good solicitor on the case. They have been paid to deliver and haven't done the job and it all reflects badly on you. Get legal advice and arrange a letter to be sent to them outlining all the problems and remedies you expect.

Good luck.

Hi Layla its not hard to make a web site of your own. If you buy MS Frontpage, Or Dreamweaver you can build a nice site that you have total control over. You only need hosting then. You can get that from most internet designers, i have a wicked server that is backed up at only ?70 a year for 10mb or ?90 a year for ?20mb. A 20mb site would do you nicely. I,d be more than happy to show ya how to do it. No charges. Maybe a little payment at the end would be nice lol.

Hi All,

Well, well, well, once again it seems to be the old case of the few spoiling it for the many, and for Layla-Jade too!! :o(

My heart goes out to Layla(and other things too!! ;o) ), as she seems to be one of the most honest of British Girls, in as much as she actually comes onto this site, and let's us know what she is up to, which is a helluva lot more than some people(This compliment also goes out to Sweet Rebekah Jordan(Loved you in BD Dirty Blondes) and Wendy(Loved you too in BD)!! )

As this place is full of liberal and open minded people, I wonder if there is anything that can be done to help Layla??

Or at least IMHO we are all behind you Layla in your quest to kick some Butt!!

Good Luck with the site,


Hootsmon aka Kris

Hi Layla,

Sorry about the launch party. Another problem you may be able to help with. I tried to subscribe during the launch party but after having my credit card debited I couldn't get a username and password (server down I assume). I tried to email the webmaster but the mail was rejected (same reason I suppose).

Can you help?
