Seems like this article is dancing around the issue here - probably written by an employee? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.136.135.7 (talk) 17:54, 29 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Nowhere does it state EXACTLY what KIND of business these series of inter-dependent websites are engaged in. There is no real social stigma any longer in describing online Pr0n businessess as such, if indeed that is what they are. If they are Dating services or escort facilitating services, then say so. I am sure there are plenty of Reliable newspaper Sources that have described the various related services and sites under the company's heading, especially due to the former legal problems of of one of its corporate associates, Robert A. Altman , the banker, who is not to be confused with the late Academy Awarding-winning fgilmmaker, Robert Altman. The former (the banker) received a lot of press during his felony trials mostly because he was married to Wonder Woman Actress, Lynda Carter. Seeing as the company is now owned by a consortium of other companies including the family friendly Build-A-Bear series of stores and franchises, I'm sure editors can describe what FriendFinder does without being too graphic. If they are OK for Build-A-Bear, they can't be too bottom of the barrell. I'll try to find a way to describe what they do but other editors more familiar with their activities and history, as well as any material changes in their business plan over time should feel free to step in and describe what they do in polite, business-like terms. The article could use some clarity.LiPollis (talk) 06:28, 3 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

I beleive we need to work on mentioning the contributions of Co-founder Lars Mapstead. It seems definitely written by an employee to maybe keep him out. Likely due to some unforseen inside baseball. There are planty of sources documenting him as co-founder, and with him now running for President i think it may be worth including these contributions as well.
