I'm curious about a few things....

for instance, what types of things exactly are you going to consider as being "unacceptable practices"? For instance... On my TGP, I use no consoles or redirection scripts at all, because I want surfers to keep coming back for more... however, on my AVS sites, I fully feed them into a "main" site via blind links and I also scripted their back button so that if they should choose to leave without visiting a sponsor, well, they're gonna go there anyway. Is this "unacceptable practice"?

On a larger scale, WHO exactly is going to be the judge, jury, and executioner of someone that decides that type of scripting IS acceptable?

I like this whole idea, but I do see a serious danger to legit webmasters choosing to use certain techniques by handing over all-encompasing power to one person or even one group designated as "Judge". I don't WANT to be judged and sentenced to "webmaster exile" on something someone else may see as unfair yet I see as perfectly fine. And I definitely see ALOT of problems arising out of this example.
