Been here since 2005. Did some great shoots, and made good friends. There are virtually no more magazines to shoot for sad to say. There also seems to be a dearth of models as well. I know it's been a while when all the models in my portfolio here are retired. Sep 01 18 01:38 pm Link The weight of the ego's round here just got to be too much to enjoy any more. A lot of the wonderful creative spirit that use to fill this site left when people started to convince each other that "collaboration" was a bad idea.

We had a group chat thing I'd sign on with a few message board people and we'd play drinking games online. It was great.

I made some great friends, did great work, and had memorable moments with the folks here. Well, with those I worked with then, today: not much happening sad to say. Apr 08 19 05:45 am Link I remember it was fun, but nothing specific. Lately, I have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast, or if I had breakfast May 10 19 12:49 pm Link AHA model 3290 Lapis from 2004 and this port as my moderator port in 06 or something. I HAVE A PORTFOLIO WITH less digits than a zipcode. OMG when I first joined i think i posterbated with about ten other people across every single fora for hours. They made us moderators becasue they had to do that or ban us. And some of us didnt get drunk too much and post and some of us knew third person so it was awesome. And then people got like all effed up and high on the tiny amount of power that moderating a website gives one....around that time I left MM. It was fun as holy hell though. Now? lol . no one even remembers how fabulous I was . OR that I inflicted the site with Bob Randall *one of my besties from my chitown days* Jul 15 19 03:24 pm Link Twistedstorm studio wrote: I remember you!!! Not clearly but that would be wrong. Jul 15 19 11:47 pm Link Once upon a time we had... The Pit. Jul 18 19 09:23 pm Link Oh wowwwww...I just logged in to update information and wondered if SF2 even existed anymore! It's sad to see how much things have died off, but I just got SUCH a kick out of seeing some familiar names and body parts...I mean...faces FWIW, I hope anyone who sees this and/or remembers chatting a decade (eeeeep) or so ago is doing well!

Jul 22 19 09:40 pm Link I poked in here because someone asked me about a photographer to work with. None of them have been active in YEARS and my friends list has shrunk by probably 100 people. I had pulled most of my pics a long time ago and decided to put them back up for shits and giggles and am super sad that several of them I can't because they are "too small." They are the exact same pic I pulled. They haven't been edited or changed in any way and a couple are some of the coolest shots. Feb 16 20 01:05 pm Link I heard MM recently came out with a new thing called ‘an App’, but only for something called ‘a Droid’. Every year I keep meaning to cancel my paid subscription, but I’m pretty sure my subscription is there only source of revenue.

Left the entire modeling world behind and honestly, I'm glad I did with what it has turned into. What a shitshow. I show dogs mostly these days. I still pop my head in every so often though just to let folks know I didn't die. Apr 30 20 07:19 am Link Nicolette wrote: Goodie!!! May 01 20 08:22 pm Link Previous cliques pissed off a lot of people and many others left due to ownership changes. Then there's those of us who have an account (such as myself) that pop in every now and then just to see if anything has improved. I find that my mail on here is solely from retouchers and traveling models so that doesn't help to draw me back to using this site more. I focus most of my shoot efforts on Facebook and for the last few years it has done very well for me. May 01 20 08:51 pm Link Did they ever remove SF2 at some point?

Its pretty much useless at this point for me and the pandemic situation makes things worse. I was getting a lot of leads from IG and FB and even meet up but the pandemic put everything on hold. I find MM is good for togs with deep pockets. Long gone are the days when I got contacted by a model. May 29 20 06:29 pm Link Maybe In a few more years MM’s refusal to update literally anything at all will make it hipster cool and ironically retro? Jul 29 20 06:07 am Link Robb Mann wrote: its science!!! Jul 29 20 01:54 pm Link Precisely what I was thinking! I joined MM in 2006 , I was 21 , a smartass , mostly posted from work . The threads were Entertainment ... then I got a promotion on my job , more hours , yada-yada-yada around 2009-2010 was quite a time, I remember making up stuff in threads JUST to piss people off, it worked. & never got in the brig( or whatever it was called idk). I remember the most epic threads with the cat memes ..that's how I knew it was feisty. but I DID work with a few, since I'm in Oklahoma ( or as I call it Joke-Lahoma) I had to travel. I visited LA & worked with a few peeps, had a nice time. Just got back from LA ,even during Covid its a nice place.
