AC Pay to stop processing sites with word 'young' in title! - GoFuckYourself.com

PornBroker · 07-03-2003, 05:45 PM

Dear AC Pay client,

We've started receiving news that the banks may have serious issues with the use of the word "young" (and related words) in site titles. As a result, after careful consideration, we've decided to stop processing for sites containing variations of the word to protect ourselves and our clients. Since you run a site with the word "young" in the title, this is understandably big news for you, as you've undoubtedly spent a lot of time and money on the domain, SE optimization and traffic purchases. We will not be taking any action this weekend, certainly, and we'll be able to give you a grace period during the beginning of next week, but to continue processing, we'll need you to register a different site title and domain.

Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience.

Why go to the hassle of making laws for censorship and possibly not get them through congress when you can have some words in CC companies ears and get them to do it for you

"and related words"

...would that be teens, girls etc?

gothweb · 07-03-2003, 06:26 PM

This is weird. Pre-emptive censorship by the billers... Some of them seem to be struggling to stay ahead of the curve. Is tha a good thing, or are they responding to rumours in a way that damages their clients' business?

Digipimp · 07-03-2003, 06:27 PM

This is exactly as I called it not long ago. I told everyone to refuse to pay VISA extortion money because it was just the begining of the fucking that you would end up with. They are going to start to clamp down on things one and two at a time that they say are questionable and then you'll end up with nothing before long and if you don't like that, they'll just totally stop processing your shit.

If just a few people do it then you're right, but no one is willing to give it a try in mass right now, but they will when it gets to the point where you can process anything that is adult related. So here's to hoping that it doesn't get to that point since so many of you have already paid your extortion money.

I didn't pay no extortion $750. Went with offshore and euro billers though the censorship thing is probably more a fear about government prosecutions and not soo much bank related.

i think all the billers see Bush gettingi n for a nother 4 years and this time A-s-s-c-r-o-f-t is gonna go ballistic agiant porn, attacking from the "underage" angle as that will get the most likely successful prosecutions. Billers are probably cleaning up their portofolios as much as possible

Kevin2 · 07-03-2003, 06:57 PM

LOL at my age 40 is young

Maybe VISA management are surfing sites they shouldn't

Visa does not give a fuck about us...

So they are canning your rebills as well?

Care to share what the domain is?

JayJay · 07-03-2003, 07:59 PM

I hope this wont include "teen"
But I'm guessing it will

andi_germany · 07-04-2003, 06:55 AM

I can in some regard understand teen I even might understand girl but young is really in the eye of the beholder. For me in the 30's everyone below 30 is young for others I am still young so this is pure bullshit.

teen = someone between 10 and 20 and therefore a teen can be legal
girl = young woman. Might be more questionable than teen even

I have to say every biller who generalizes certain words and ban them is not worth to get any business.

I love CCBill in this regard. They actually go to a site and check what is there before they do anything.

thefreakybeaver · 07-04-2003, 07:30 AM

they should at least look at each domain and site with the word in it. What if someone owned younggrammas.com lol

lol...err....obviously they don't pay real close attention to sites they are processing for:

http://www.shrinkwrapbitch.com

Well since Youngporn.net is not using ACpay as 3rd party biller, this is not affecting Youngporn.

CCbill is in that way a great company(as most proberly already know) they want in your memberarea, view your tours, and approve it after they are sure you are 100% legal.

Since CCbill didn't make a statement over the word young in a domain, I presume they keep billing those sites....

Pls don't scare ppl with this statement, when you are not 100% sure....(and you are wrong, since this rule will not affect youngporn at all, because they don't use ACpay, and this is not a rule at all ISPS)

Thnx

My comment had nothing to do with any other billers.

If youngporn.net doesn't process with AC Pay - clearly until it's particular biller has a problem with the word 'young' - then it's ok.

I took his question to be, that it was *his* site - he processes with AC Pay - and would he have a problem?

I have no interest in going through the site to see who the actual processor was.

pimplink · 07-04-2003, 06:26 PM

makes sense

LOL exactly. If CCbill can check out the sites on behalf of the webmasters and approve them then I am surprised that AC Pay is not doing this for their webmasters

exactly!

the only porn sites left will be the ones owned from a distance by the BIG companies, IBM, MS, and every other big corp that is into this biz, but from 5 arms length....

chodadog · 07-04-2003, 07:14 PM

"and related words" is very disturbing.

Theo · 07-04-2003, 07:22 PM

acpay.....soon not to pay

if you are using the word teen,
pack your shit and run away

KRL · 07-04-2003, 08:46 PM

There is a very simple work around.

Perhaps it only applies to one particular webmaster

I am guessing that they would likely not object to

young;
housewives
grannies
etc
etc

but maybe if you had
young:
girls
teens
boys
etc

then they might have a point

next word to get banned by sponsors, processors etc is teenager
i'm willing to bet on this

gooddomains · 07-07-2003, 08:03 AM

has anyone any updated info regarding the list of banned words ?

SunTzu · 07-07-2003, 08:20 AM

First lolita is banned by Visa, now "young" by AC Pay... Surely "Teen" will follow.

How the hell are we supposed to describe teen sites?

Can't use Young Women...

Women-that-look-very-good-for-their-age.com?

Community-college-cuties.com?

WTF??
