Great board, great posts, lots of good feedback.
After speaking at length with my APIC connection, I believe there are a lot of myths floating around as there always is.
It's amazing how Webmasters would rather believe BS than the truth every time.

APIC said they have no intention of "Shutting down TGPs", only changing the way TGPs operate.
They seem to have a task force of insiders that can provide close enough info to prove the TGP Webmasters that are building their own galleries to link to. That was the real issue. An estimated 15000 free pages were generated by Absolut-Series Webmaster.

I was also told that the freesite problem is going to be stopped, or at least slowed to a minimum.
Freesite Hosts love to delete infringers. Especially after all the work is done. Nothing like having 100 links straight to the sponsor on every TGP every day. So if you want to spin your wheels every day, just keep posting those stolen pages.

And the DMCA requires IMMEDIATE takedown or the ISP becomes liable, so I advise people never to absorb too much on these boards, as there is more BS than truth.

After all, I'm just the Sothsayer of Doom.

and likely just a spammer.
