You cant clamor for respect in the mainstream community and then at the same time ask if you'd hit it. Majority of the people on this board cant even go a post without throwing the F word in. Its amazing to me that people who are very intelligent will post on a very important topic such as 2257, xxx etc, yet cant do so without dropping the F-bomb.

The majority of the people in this industry are not pornographers, we are Marketers. We build sites, we build companies, we distribute a product. It is no different than anything else. We buy content, we pay programmers, we pay designers, we build traffic, we market the package to consumers. What we do is no different than the MGM/Mirage company. How much adult content do they stream to the end consumer as pay per view? Far more than the vast majority on this board yet they are looked upon with respect. They treat it as a business and another revenue stream and its handled in a professional manner.
