RogerV - nice idea, but I am not too sure it will fly. I know of one sponsor that will not accept TGP traffic (although TGP2, and Free Paysite Password technique traffic is welcome - go figure), and they have a rep for only paying whale accounts. That had zero impact.

I do not doubt your connections with major players, but please, tell me how a big company will be able to police this. I'd think companies would be examining downizing during a recession, not looking to hire enough staff to surf TGPs and cancel accounts. Not too mention that even if the major companies were to unite, you'd really have to exert pressure on the smaller partnership programs in order for this to work. Would that fall under collusion? Big guys telling little guys how to run their business seems to be something I'd watch on the Sopranos.

Just for the record, I am not against losing hardcore. Much like Shemp, I do not ask for hardcore galleries from gallery builders. I also think softcore sells better. But I am sorry, I just do not have a lot of faith in anyone pulling this off. Even if you got 75% of the TGPs to agree to something, the other 25%(maybe guys using rougue sponsors, or who own their own paysites and don't play exit footsie with the big boys) will fuck up the "revolution".
