Yes....or.....No ?

Example. Obvioulsy the word "adult" doesn't apply to this. but how about party poker or lets say bang bus (to push the site). example... using bangbusnow.com to push bangbus or partypokerplaying.com to push party poker.

experiences?

I know that a big point of argument in domain name disputes is if whether or not you (the holder of the similar or trademarked name) are trying to decieve the visitor into thinking that you are actually on the official site. But is this ok for affiliates to do? I have checked a couple of TOS and this isn't covered.
