Hi, Magichan. I am HDK, Hideki Kishioka, ceo of Stickam. I sincerely apologize for what happened to your account. It was completely our fault that we accidently banned you.
I just got a report that you were banned and researched the case, and we found out that one of our monitors had mistakenly banned your account. He though he banned a user next to you on monitoring screen.
We have a team that monitors on public live feeds to check if there are any inappropriate activities on stickam such as nudity and violence. and one of the monitors meant to ban a person next to you, but he accidentally banned you and he didn't notice on the mistake he made.
This should never have happened. I sincerely apologize for our mistake and will do my best to prevent it from happening ever again.
You mean a lot to us and we all wish to see on stickam again.
本当にごめんなさい。
Best Regards.
Hideki Kishioka Chief Executive Officer Advanced Video Communications, Inc. (More contact information was here)
Than you for the full, clear explanation. I understand now. If you don't mind, I'll share that with my fans so they know what happened. I discussed it with them from the start and everyone was confused. Of course I will leave out the contact information!
By the way, can you please tell me what truth there is to the allegations that Stickam shares an office and employees with a pornography website? I was invited to the office before (in Japan, not California) and no one told me about that.
Hello. Thanks for your reply. you can of course share the information with your fans.
About the allegation that New york times reported, I must say that it truly hurt our feelings. I still can not believe how someone can make a nation wide article without confirming any background check.
Our company provides a video conference technology to many sites that includes small office environments, online class instructions, online fortune- tellers, counseling and such. and some of our client like dating sites and match making sites could be considered as 18 and over sites.
But the article was pitched that as if we are the one that operate and manage a pornography website and as if we share the same employees and the office with those porn sites. That is completely wrong.
Our company is an application service provider. We only provide technologies to business owners. The site Stickam is the first and only consumer site we have ever operated and managed.
(There is more discussion here)

So, I will still do lives sometimes. If my account gets banned again, there's no excuse! Hahaha (^_^) >>115 もちろんです!^_~
I am doubting that the employee who had done Magichan in ban did the operation by the enmity to Magibon. For instance, Magichan doesn't notice it though he is holding goodwill in Magichan. (Its joke,but alittle bit serious)
http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/07/11/just-how-icky-is-stickam/ >In my previous article about Stickam, and to other journalists and on its Web site, Stickam claimed it was owned by Advanced Video Communications, a “premier developer of Internet solutions” whose “business targets are the Japanese and other Asian markets.” To say they are obfuscating here would be generous. As Scott Flacks, Stickam’s vice president, admitted to me this week, AVC’s only business is running Stickam, a U.S.-focused, teen-targeted site. And AVC’s owner and chief manager, Wataru Takahashi, also has vast holdings in hardcore Web cam pornography.

> 16.July 13th, 2007 6:27 pm Having a friend who works at Stickam and knew Mr Becker I am surprised it took this long for the porn connection to be uncovered. It has been making the rounds online among Stickam users. I mean really what startup with an audience of less than 7 hundred thousand users manages to lease the most expensve office space in LA without ever generating revenue or raising capital. And you should see the salaries of these people seriously. I made a mistake going to law school because apparently AVC pays you more for doing nothing than I get working 16 hour days. - Posted by Gary Sonnenfield
> 17.July 14th, 2007 12:33 pm Also, I have been talking to some staff, who admitted they were working for stickam while working for the porn side, of w/e site it is. Some off the staff I talked too, were pretty messed up, Alex tried his best to stop all this, but in the end it seems it got to much and he had to come out and tell people the TRUTH about sticma failing to protect young kids. - Posted by Wiliam Hooper

We also have alots of ppls coming in lately, they all coming here for a job some city are nearly owned by them after dark... I dont know that a good thing or not -_-
>>527 I see. Various immigrations in the US. In Japan, foreigners increasing recently. Instant ramen is revolution of food, so easy to cook and so fast. But too much instant ramen is not healthy for you. hehe.
>>533 I haven't had a lot yet. I like miso soup, teriyaki, the yakitori I cooked, and some Japanese candy and snackfood. I want to try everything like sushi, sashimi, etc. But, not really natto. >>534 If I can fall asleep I will. ^_^ Don't worry! >>535 Lasagna! (^v^)/ >>537 In Japan? Most of the people I know who went to Japan, did so for the nightlife. It really annoys me for some reason when people do that... >>540 Yeah, I heard that the noodles are fried in the most unhealthy oils!
Do you know Carolyn from Chicago? she was in Japan for a month and just came back home 2wks ago she said was so fun all the time. she was even on TV show singing some karaoke music...and wants to live there for sometime.
>>545 I don't like vegetables... >>546 I definitely don't know her well, but we have sent a few messages to each other. She's really nice. It's so cool she got to do that! ^_^
>>554 The fruity ones are delicious. ^_^ >>555 Ketchup with cabbage and egg? I don't know... >>556 I've never had it, but I like the french bread pizza.
Yes... You can phone order anything...pizza,ramen,sushi,stakes,pasta,most any Japanese foods you can think of.. you can stay home for a week or month if you do not want to go outside...
I guess a lot of restaurants here will deliver too, but something like soup seems difficult to deliver. I guess I (we?) mostly think of pizza as the main delivery food. I'm going to bed soon. I work nights lately so I like it better this way.
The ramen is delivered from a shop very near. It is delivered the motorcycle equipped with a special tray that doesn't shake easily. The lap is put so that soup should not spill.
They have professional driver for that. They don’t spill a drop of soup to the ground though. And they bring them still hot. PS, you don’t need to tip them
animejenta from Norway is obviously more beautiful and cute than magibon. She is speaking and singing more fluently. So magibon's popularity is now facing a serious crisis.
She doesn't have an accent. That's great. Probably, when people try to sing along even a foreign song, their accents are corrected like this. With that in mind, she sings Japanese songs rly well.
Anyways, she looks a bit like Magibon. I suppose she's a sister of Magi's.
>>590 I've jst watched it. That's incredable. Is she rly a non-Japanese who's never been here? I mean, is she teaching herself Japanese? She deserves more attention, Himeka. hahaha
I couldn't tell if Himeka was from some other place than Japan, if I wasn't informed beforhand that she's from Canada.. The way she put her emotion into the song was like a Japanese singer. Can't find a word to describe how well she sings, too. Great, Himeka.
>>674 I don't know yet... >>675 I sleep in, sometimes make a video, go for a walk if the weather is nice, and when my sister gets home from school I see if she wants to do anything.
I’m 805 I don’t know why exactly, but I can tell you that, has a bigger and better video quality and can be much longer video. I notice that some of the YT videos were transferred from the nicovideo by someone.
>>804 Haha,I was sleeping. I am work now. Because Japan is a morning now.
Someone will support your video with Nico video and your popularity be supported with the sink callus. However, there is a right to protest in the use of the video without your permission. Peace out.
>>761 I don't think so. I've never seen a Youtuber showing her boobs. Go check porn sites if you like to watch boobs.
I don't know much about her too, but she uploaded singing videos on Youtube and you'll be amazed how good her Japanese pronunciations are. She looks quite cute as well. If she's more active, I'm sure she will get attention from 2chers. Applemilk1988 will be history. lol
She seems to have been teaching herself Japanese. I guess from her username that she loves Japanese animes. Probably she picked up the Japanese language by watching them. You should check her videos out if you want.
Hi, Magibonchan. I am glad you have a good time with your sister. Todays dinner pizza, hehe )))))) New digital camera is sony pink one? Its colourful and impressive one. Price reasonable, so you have a good choice.
Don't take it personally, but competitiveness of Sony's prodctions in the market has been going down. As you probably know, Sony's put emphasis on designs of its items instead of quality so its not durable. I'd never buy Sony.
>>824 She looks 10 years old, animejenta. lol Anyways, I think her Japanese is good as well as her song is. One thing I find very amazing is she's learned the language by herself at her age. Perhaps Japanese is not a must at school in Norway, but she motivated herself to do that. That's great. That is, she probably don't have a teacher or Japanese speakers to talk to in daily life.
>>827 I'm looking forward to seeing it. ^_^ It reminds me of a new show in America called Pushing Daisies. >>832 I had pizza for dinner too! haha >>833 Honestly... I chose design over quality. I will be gentle with it. If it breaks, I will accept that and buy a Canon. XD
I assume Sony's products are relatively durable and well-designed if compared to products of other competitors. Quality control of Sony is higly developed and maintained to prevent possible deficencies in manufacturing processes. Threrefore, magi don't have to worry about it.
>>848 A few people said that theirs broke, but only a few compared to all the people who said it's great. Still, the one I almost bought is way more popular. In the end, I liked the pink camera, and also I like the looks of the pictures it takes better than the other one. ^_^
You probably won't believe this, but when the Japanese have got a cold and fever, people stick a Welsh onion (Naganegi) up in their ass to cool down their fever. And it really works. So if you say to a Japanese, "Apples keep the doctor away," you will be most likely misunderstood like, "Wow, great. That's too big for the Japanese."
I don't know how to start this mail… Well…the fact is, you swept me away! I just fell in love with you right at the very moment I first saw you on the Stickam live of Emily… You are the most beautiful and intelligent woman I have ever met in my whole life… I almost confessed "I love you!" at that very night… It took a tremendous amount of self-control to fight the temptation to say those three words. But I can't fight this feeling any more… You probably think I'm an impossible romantic who believes in "love at first sight". You may think I live in a dream world and you may be right because I believe in dreams coming true. I'm not expecting you to feel the same way towards me, nor am I asking you to be my steady girlfriend. It might sound somewhat egoistic but I just really had to let you know of my feelings. I mean, if you can't express your feelings, what's the point of having them? Having written this mail is like giving myself an ultimatum. Sam, I know we just met 2 months ago and we hardly know each other, but love shouldn't be measured by the time. All I can do now is pray that you'll give me a chance…
KGKGKG: “Dude, so today is my girlfriend Magi and my 1 year anniversary, right? Well, she told me she had to work so we couldn’t celebrate, but when I went to the mall I totally saw her making out with some other guy!”
LiveBeat: “Whoa… man, that’s whack. You shoulda dumped her ass right there!”
>>901 I am sure that you had been bullied severely like a catapiler or cockroach by the same ethnic women in your childhood. So you try to seek relief to Japanese pussy. And I know you are hardcore pedophile dude. J-girls look like more childish than caucasian ones. In other words, you are a typical creepy smelly loser pedophile asiaphile gaijin dude. We Japanese never need weird gaijins like you. Fuck off from the land of Chrysanthemum as soon as possible.
>>925 Hey. ^_^ My day wask pretty good. How about yours? Of course I will probably put so many pictures on my blog when I get the camera! You'll get sick of it!
>>926 Hi Magi ^_^ I guess you cant wait to get your new camera. I know how you feel... I was just like you when I order something online. hope you enjoy that when you get your new cam :)
Good evening Magichan. Wooow!You got new camera!Its nice. If you can please take a movie in your city or forest or lake etc.... (Maybe your camera can take movie too.) Thank you.
>>931 Yeah! It's like, I bought it so I want it already! But, when it comes in the mail it feels like Christmas. ^_^ >>933 I will probably use the camera mostly for pictures and video outside. I don't know if I will take my own picture with it haha... It's probably more cruel and honest than my low quality webcam. T_T >>935 Good morning. ^_^ I eat pizza a lot... Is that toilet paper??
>>938 Dominos! >>939 That pizza looked sooo good. T_T I like the Japanese Pizza-la commercial with the giant tearful crust. I don't know why but I think it's hilarious. ^_^
Good evening,How was your dinner Magichan? I ate the instant noodle a little while ago. It is a morning because I am in Japan now.
The person who eats the ramen in the morning is unusual. I did not put catsup in the ramen. However, I occasionally use catsup. It is also very delicious.
