Simply to survive, people entering the business now have to be more professional than their predecessors. So from among those who are successful, over our second decade likely will come people who understand the importance of protecting their environment as well as attending to their immediate concerns. I guess we just have to hope that enough of the ceiling stays put until then.
jayeff..you post reminded me of the very first time i heard about this .XXX. I was brought up to speed by someone who has been in the online adult biz almost since it started, he at that time informed me about "the group" that is involved with .XXX ...they are older, been around along time, made a ton of money in this biz, also i dont sit at the same table they sit at ( he did say i would one day lol)

I was also told that ALOT of money had changed hands for introductions and deals behind closed doors were made to secure votes and support....some of those that supported then, dont now.

The best part that really got me going was: "there was nothing i could do about it, and there is far to much money involved to stop it" When i hung up the phone, that was maybe the best and worst thing he could have said to me at that time.

It got under my skin that a few older members of our biz can make the money they did then take a big fat crap on the very biz they helped create and make all there money with. Amazing!

So the good news we dont do any biz with any of those people, and dont plan on ever doing biz with them or any one like that. There are a ton of really great people in this biz that choose to take it as a real biz, and hopefuly in the end that will show it self.

Soon i hope.




NO to .XXX
