Rewarding those doing it the right way is a good idea. The good people in the industry ought to band together more for sure to support one another.

well stated and very true. What the negative publicity has cost Manwin more than anything is financing. They may have gotten a venture capital investment early on but they haven't been able to get another, hence the merger with Redtube.
Say what you want but Manwin/MindGeek IS struggling financially, almost all of those businesses they bought up are in the red and the few that arent like Twistys are in decline and may well end up as a net loss.
I hope that I played some part in them missing out on any mainstream deals, Charlie Gasperino assures me that I have.
I assure you I will continue to fight this "war"
