LifestylesVR channel - CANCELED

Mutiny

petermc I remember you saying exactly this back in October when he first floated the idea of working with JL and resisted any advice against it.

Which also happened to be the week I decided to stop making PMVs here.

Let it burn.

doublevr

Mutiny dude, just don't bring this bullshit here. You tenure here was a crap. Get a fucking sense

That's a perfect example of things making up.

@doublevr This guy has a history of pushing himself on girls without their consent. Its not a one time thing. If you look at the guys social media its pretty clear he not only didn't learn anything, he holds the people who spoke out against him, and the site that let him go, in contempt. Are you really sure you want to tie your reputation, and the reputation of SLR, to this guy? Its a huge amount of risk for you. If anything ends up happening you, and this site, are going to be tied to it. The memory for something like that is going to be forever, and anytime you or anyone else posts anywhere about SLR, its going to get brought up.
You posted a thread a few months ago asking for feedback on this, and the overwhelming response was that its a terrible idea. Maybe take a look at the bigger picture of what you think the best version of this site can be and listen to that feedback. Enabling a scumbag like Jimmy is not going to end well for anybody.

doublevr

BML5768 there's no SLR reputation involved. We don't endorse anyone to work with Jimmy or not to work. The dude just gets a channel on SLR. Any other producer can do

doublevr Respectfully, I don't want to tell you how to run your business, but this Jimmy thing is a lightning rod for negative attention to your brand. I don't think he's the hill worth dying on. I just don't think he should have a platform on SLR, he belongs in jail.

doublevr

parsec great you guys aren't judges. The place would turn shit if you would.

If there is reason for him to go there he should be prosecuted.

You must be really sick bringing it up that way.

What's fucking wrong with you people? You are mad not knowing shit other than Twitter posts?

Just go bring the charges for fucks sake.

doublevr not knowing shit other than Twitter posts?

Did you listen to Alex Coal’s nearly hour long interview about what happened that day? I did. Did you go and watch the scene where she debuted on Wankz (and as I recall VR porn in general)? I did. She detailed specifics that can be verified by looking at the scene. When the male talent took a break, Jimmy told her they would get some fingering footage and he (Jimmy) would stand in for the stunt-cock. You can see the hands in that part of the scene are Jimmy’s - very different from the stunt-cock. And while Alex’s expressions and body language stay mostly professional it’s clear in some spots that’s she’s very uncomfortable and not happy.

So no - and Alex’s story matches many other female performers - it isn’t just Twitter rumors. Watch the end of the Christmas Bonus scene where Elena Koschka gives a final performance. Jimmy’s behavior throughout that scene is clearly what girls complain about - his hands are all over many of the girls, and while we don’t see what may have happened to Elena, she also looks pretty miserable in that last segment. I love Elena but I can’t watch that, and she’s one of the women that have corroborated all this.

That @Unamed account looks suspiciously like it’s Jimmy himself and to imply that pornstars and prostitutes sign away their right to consent and respectful treatment because of their choice to get paid for sex is exactly what SLR should never ever enable. He even uses a hateful term like whores to convey his blatant disdain for women.

parsec

doublevr I didn't mean to offend you.

I am no saint but i'm also not a horrible person. I really liked a lot of Jimmy's scenes made for Wankz, but we all have to make a choice on how much we are willing to morally give up for porn.

When you say

doublevr Getting a personal channel for Jimmy Lifestyles

doublevr and we are helping him out with setup

You can't act like you have no involvement with him. You are writing it as one of the big things coming to your site.

Also pornstars aren't idiots, they can see perfectly well that you believe Jimmy's story of what happened in all the accusations over Alex Coal and all the others

doublevr You are mad not knowing shit other than Twitter posts?

Did you really think that you could advertise the return of Jimmy coming to your site without all the this backlash? The second I read it, I thought "oh boy, here we go"

doublevr

It's just not the right way to put things.

The dude above is blatantly lying to enjoy the heat of the moment. I know many times when Twitter posts have been a lie only intending to harm people or someone getting out of mind

You people are sick

fuccaneer

This thread is a strong reminder why you should think twice before paying for a lifetime membership. That small discount isn't worth giving up the power to "vote with your wallet".

BML5768

These girls are in porn films, sure, that doesn't give the director the right to do whatever he wants with them. Do you think Martin Scorsese corners the actresses on his set and fingers them because they are in nude sex scenes in his movies? What do you think that reaction would be? Also, get real, its not just one girl on twitter that's made these allegations. Its a bunch of them.
If you're going to go forward with this you'd better get used to this reaction, it's not going to stop and you're putting the target on yourself now instead of just him.

jimdogma

I could give a rat's ass about any of those 15 bullet-pointed "advancements" to the SLR platform. What about the SHORTS feature that was promised to be fixed months ago? That is the only advancement I care about. Again, I'm utterly STUNNED that this was not even mentioned in the list... This doesn't have to even be anything hugely fancy, just something for a business man on the run to get a few quick hits over lunch rather than having to settle in for for a two hour show every time. We can call it the business man's lunch! 🙂

I see Alex Coal posted something on twitter saying she’d received some severely upsetting and unexpected news that caused her to have a panic attack yesterday and that it would put girls in danger. She never said what it was and the tweet has since been deleted but she has since started reposting stuff about Jimmy Lifestyles so I think we can all read between the lines.

Congrats SLR on making abused women relive their trauma with your “announcement”.

Men who work in the porn industry may have no respect for female performers but you’ll find that a lot of porn fans absolutely do. This isn’t some twitter hearsay, this is multiple women making complaints, refusing to work for a studio and ultimately the person being fired in disgrace. This is the guy you’re partnering with. Shame on you!

petermc Congrats SLR on making abused women relive their trauma with your “announcement”.

Thanks for this update. Here’s two contrasting pictures showing direct reactions to the SLR announcement that they intend to ignore Jimmy Lifestyle’s shameful treatment of the women who are the very lifeblood of their success.

Alex Coal’s reaction. We can’t see it as she removed, but the interactions are sincere as are her responses, which are brave. I see nothing disingenuous about it…

In sharp contrast, I’m 95% certain the fake account Unamed was created by Jimmy himself yesterday to talk himself and SLR up, while mocking us as self righteous “saints”. He goes on to compare pornstars to whores… to imply that his behavior towards Alex (and the many other women) was in no way out of line. This reaction in contrast to Alex’s above shows cowardice and disingenuousness.

Let us hope that SLR is starting to get the message that this backlash will only grow stronger and stronger as industry players weigh in, as well as fans who BELIEVE these women.

Oh and here’s the actual Jimmy: Defiant. Unremorseful. And with the same cadence in his writing and clumsy grammar as Unamed above.

I have little doubt it was Jimmy in the forum with that fake account. So despicable 🤦🏻‍♂️

Please read the room. Calling your subscribers "sick" because they universally object to your partnering with an abusive director is such a head-in-the-sand moment it defies belief. No one wants this. It will cause you reputational damage. Setting the bar at "well, he's not in jail" is insultingly low. This isn't a one-off Twitter complaint, it was a widely documented series of allegations from multiple women who have significant sway in the industry. Alienating your subscribers AND your talent is madness. Please consider that your audience is not sick or mentally unhinged but actually cares for YOU and your company as well as your models. This is a decisive moment and your future actions have consequences. I hope you take a moment, don't reply angrily, and just pause, consult others in the industry, especially the talent, before proceeding. Genuinely wishing SLR a bright future, as industry leaders.

legitrider020

Such a big bummer. I don't follow the industry at all, and just a few minutes of research has left me in shock. Bummer, SLR has been way above any other studio regarding content imo, but there are other studios. I'll miss the scripts but even other studios are doing that now. No way I can reconcile renewing subscription knowing SLR is partnered with a serial predator and SLR's leadership is doubling down despite all the feedback, makes this look all the more alarming and suspect. Won't be renewing my Subscription if this dude has a channel on here, and its clearly a partnership given the fact it's the only studio given attention and y'all specifically speak about helping him set up. I pay for porn b/c I rather pay for content than risk being entertained by another person's oppression or trauma.

Clearly the subscribers overwhelmingly believe the women who have spoken up (and God knows how many who haven't) abouut the predatory behavior of this sick fuck. These reports aren't just Twitter one-offs, you can easily find in just a minute Emma Hix's account (and many others) and see how clearly she feels violated.

SLR leadership is not taking into account the hit in lost revenue and the talent that will refuse to work with SLR whether or not Jimmy is an employee or just a contributor. SLR doesn't see it, but this is one of the worst decisions conceivable in this industry. That SLR leadership would stand with him is a solid indicator that they share a disdain of women with that jackhole. They feel that if a woman is doing this for a living, she's trash and is free game to whatever they want to do to them.

I suppose their SLR's next move will be to post weight loss tips from Jared Fogle and tips on how to pick up chicks by R. Kelly. It disgusts me that a site that purports to be a safe and healthy environment for performers actually just thinks of them as whores.

harigeharry

Also @doublevr just think about how the comment section below jimmy's video will be. Honestly IF you're going to go through with this (I honestly hope you won't), better disable the comments on his videos. It would be a mess everytime.
