I bought just for the hell of it. Planning on making a link list for joke/humor/babes sites. There will be banners to the playboycash program.

But the domain no.

But like I say thats just my opinion and I have very little knowledge

I post this to hear the opinion of people working for playboy AND webmasters. Since you are just a stupid surfer, why don't you shut the hell up if you don't have anything to say regarding my question.

Its called "being annoyed"
Its what happens when people start to question what I'm doing, when they have no clue about who I am or how I think. I'm annoyed, because it forces me to answer you question/statement which have zero productivity, and therefor wasting my time.

Only you would know about things like that. They might contact your host.
