We would call, ask for the person, once we had them on the phone we would say hello, this is blah from x company (non porn name) and say that they are an "webmaster" of our program, most would ask which program, we would tell them and they would proceed to inform us that they did not like the idea of us calling them, if they want to talk then e-mail them or ICQ/AIM.

Atleast 40% would complain.

90% of a programs webmasters are small, work at home, webmasters, not in an office or even running a real business.

The office set webmasters, other programs, bigger webmaster didn't care that we called.

Oh ya.. A good % of the us/canadian webmasters we called, were sleeping at 3pm. Go figure.
i suppose you could make them call you before activating their account.

i know of a company that does this...
