We as adult webmasters need to group together & stand up to protect our business & investments. This is our brea & butter at stake here & we need to stand up & fight against all & any opposition we encounter. In order to do that, we need to form an organization to regulate ourselves. We need to become a self governing body. We need to volunteer ourselves to participate, to communicate & to self regulate. We need to form bylaws & policies & we need to enforce them.

If all webmasters, from large sponsor programs to the small affiliates working in the dorm rooms, all worked together for the same goals, we ca overcome & show the world that we are concerned for the same purpose of the right wing christian politics.

We all know kids sometimes get exposed to porn & certainly not one of us here wants them on our sites & the majority of us do everything possible to prevent minors from accessing our sites such as registering with ICRA, submitting urls to filters, warning pages, etc... But that is not enough, because only those who are responsible will continue to do so.. we need to make industry standards..

I propose that the industry as a whole stand up & make it a requirement that ALL adult sites MUST register with ICRA.

How can we do this? Sponsors all have rules. We have all submitted urls to sponsors to get approved. If sponsors can make the initial step & make it a REQUIREMENT, that ALL domains where their links will be placed on MUST be registered & labeled with ICRA, then this will help get more sites labeled. Sponsors can also make it part of their TOS that any webmaster promoting them from non ICRA labeled domains is a violation of the TOS & will be forfeit from the program, etc, etc..

We must stand up together & begin self regulating. We all have to become participants in regulating ourselves.

Your thoughts, ideas & 2 cents are required~!! Discuss.

Who will be the first sponsor to make it part of their TOS & Rules that affiliates MUST label with ICRA as a requirement to participate in the program?
