I came into the porn game area via a friend of mine. Before that, she and I used to share the erotic stories that we found interesting.
It was that friend that first directed me to a site for porn games, I didn't like how they did it, and I thought "there has to be better out there". Lo and behold, there was. I found F95Zone.
In my past, I had always volunteered my time to projects I liked, so when I saw that the Latest Updates (later referred to as LU) page was being redesigned, I got to work on a
If a client said to me, that they wanted this same thing, I would be quoting a price within the 1 to 2 thousand price range.
During that time, developing the LU page, I found a person that I could work really well with, it was Sam. I've been working for about 20 years now. I've never met a person like him.
Sometimes it's because they're ambitious, they want to "one-up" you, or it's just a case of them just viewing their jobs as a paycheck, and they're passing the time. But that wasn't Sam, he just wanted to work with me, we had times where we had different opinions or ideas, but it was never a fight in finding a compromise. The end result speaks for its self.
But we don't get paid for the time we put into developing F95Zone or other related projects.
The vast majority of us, are waking up in the morning and doing the work. Our motivation is money. But my motivation for doing this job has been the working relationship that I've built with Sam. It's so much fun. No matter what I'm asked to help out with, it's a joy. There are many challenges that would need to be overcome, I wouldn't be able to solve them on my own, but with that relationship, being able to communicate respectfully, we're able to solve them together.
That is not nothing. That's something special. And unique. And rare. That is... kinda cool.
We've been working together on lots of things I can't and won't speak of. Some you might learn of in the future.
So many times, I see people attacking the F95Zone team because they're not doing X thing as soon as they would like or in the way they would like. I'm not F95Zone staff, but seeing it hurts even me. Because, even though I'm not staff, I see maybe only 5% of the work they put in, but even that is enough for me to know, that even though they're volunteers, they're giving it their all. They're doing the best they can.
F95Zone isn't like other sites. It's a constantly evolving entity. The team is always wanting to make it better, for you. And they do it, while asking for nothing in return.
I wake up every morning, happy. Because I get to work on cool things. For this cool team. And help out in cool ways. Even though I can't put my name to any of these things, I love it. It's a challenge, and it's fun. I can smile, and that's fucking cool.
I look at what we have done in this short time, we don't get paid, but have done awesome things, and I want to keep doing those things. That's my decision, and I'm fine with that.
I will be here, helping, for as long as my skills are of value to the F95Zone team. It's an honor, even though we're all pirating perverts

. Sam apparently liked what I did, and brought me into the fold. In the following months, we worked hard in order to be able to deliver it to the community. If a client said to me, that they wanted this same thing, I would be quoting a price within the 1 to 2 thousand price range.
