Well, since maths are maths, if you need 10 dollars to make 30, it will be much better to spend only 1 dollar. This is what we have at this time. There's not much traffic yet? sure, but it's growing. Even more, as committed as I'm from the very beginning to the TGP idea, I just made a tgp myself (I'm essentially a gallery maker and designer):
http://www.blacklatintgp.com It hasn't much traffic, but if you've some time, just go to sextracker and see how many bookmarks I have. You'll be surprised of a so called "crap-deceiving-TGP2-suckers" having almost 50% of its traffic coming from bookmarks. And I've the proofs to show that, and you can access them.
So: is TGP2 a bad idea? No
Is TGP2 the BEST idea? Sure not!
Is the best we can have? Possibly
Is the traffic quality better than TGP? Hell, yeah!
A final thought: Why is so many people bitchin' bout the TGP2 movement? If you don't like, just go back to your CJ, TGP, LL or whatever you run! Do you REALLY think your posts will make people go back from the TGP2 idea? Just take a look at the TGP2.net counter and you'll know the answer. After all, 99% of the people bitchin' about TGP2 will be TGP2 webmasters in a not so far future, so, why not endorse the movement NOW?
Well, that's my 0.2 euros and good night
Peace
