Or how about if my server fucks up and the files need uploading once again? Thats going to take a few days to upload everything on my connection.
Ever thought about false accusations? For example, I accidentally delete something from the server. And yes, it happens. I have a submitter pass for VoyeurZine and last week Terry mailed me because one of the galleries was redirecting to a sponsor. Turned out I'd accidentally deleted the file. Everything was fixed within 1 hour of sending the mail.
How about movie gallery makers that use cookies on their galleries, to prevent cheaters from hotlinking them? If a tgp owner doesn't have cookies enabled and clicks on the movie, they'll be sent to an error page. So the movie gallery maker gets shitlisted because he is trying to prevent cheaters from eating his bandwidth.
Although the Internet is pretty wild, many TGP owners seem to think that the Internet is the wild west. Take the owner of Babes4Free for example. That guy would blacklist you for filling out his submission form. How would you prevent assholes like that from ruining it for honest webmasters?

Mike I'm with you on the blacklist point but again it's somebody else who didn't read the original suggestion. There never was a suggestion that nothing would be charged. A small, nominal fee would be processed by a 3rd party billing company to ensure that personal details matched the card. You could still cheat but only with stolen cards not generators.
