Then, the other posts were links to stolen porn--the very porn they were promoting. It was a zoo. Just like the hood. You can't take the "typical" hood mentality and apply that to a real business, despite how many times you've seen it done in the movies. Not to mention all the E Thugs who threaten to take you out. It's just one big joke.
Webmastering shouldn't be a black or white thing, but if you try to make it a black thing, it's going to be inherently flawed and fail: much like the black panther party or black planet, or kid n play.
just my two cents & I've been around a good while.
