A little bit defensive Colin - what I said above is simply the truth - the projects you mention are all worthy projects but are all self serving, which is of course fine, after all no one can blame you for wanting to make as much money as you can - but at what price. The end result was a major split in the tgp2 movement that was caused by many of your own projects and ideas that you tried to force onto the other tgps webmasters - even smutfix would force you to be a member of your tgp2bucks program - a major reason for the split.

As far as getting you and cc mixed up - I think you know how funny and ironic that is.

Try to relax Colin - this isnt an attack on you personally - I'm sure your a fine person and have helped many webmasters in the past and will continue to do so in the future.
In truth, Colin and the companies he was working with were the only major players that got involved with tgp2 to any large extent. Yes, there ae other sponsors offering deals to tgp2 webmasters, myself included, but no one else had the resources or desire to push as hard as they did. Jealousy of that was more to blame for the split than anything else.

Fact remains that TGP2 is a viable freesite model that has been around almost a year. Ask the people making big checks from tgp2bucks or anyone running one of the larger tgp2 sites if they think the concept is dead. Like anything else that's maturing, there have been some bumps on the road but that's to be expected. Making your counter spin might look pretty but like ratios it doesn't mean shit if you don't take home the $$$ at the end of the day.
