haha the witch is dead!

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 02:16 AM

declined 9:5 same as last year !!!!!!

RawAlex · 03-30-2007, 02:16 AM

9-5 and 1 abstained... and .XXX is turfed for a long while.

That Susan girl really needs to get whatever it is that is stuck up her ass out so that she can finally pass all that shit that is packed into her head.

Buncha · 03-30-2007, 02:17 AM

Woo Hoo!

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 02:18 AM

OMG im so happy

hopefully they never come back with it

RawAlex · 03-30-2007, 02:20 AM

Most important is that it is "not going to get discussed again in this cycle", which effectively means probably 2 or 3 years at least.

END OF DISCUSSION.

Now, can someone please publish the list of the people who were supporting this?

Nodtveidt · 03-30-2007, 02:20 AM

Waiting to see it show up on ICANN's website. I missed the party, so I guess I'll just have to scope the pics. :D

not really, this cycle ends in 4 months or so

the new cycle will probably open in 12-18 months i'd say

but I hope ICM will get the message that .xxx is not wanted and they will not apply for it again

StickyGreen · 03-30-2007, 02:23 AM

Fuck yea...

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 02:25 AM

actually it seems certain that icann doesnt want this .xxx

ICM aren't that stupid, they will see it

no point in applying one more time for it in 2 years, if it's gonna get declined again

Even at that 4 months to end the cycle, then 18 months to START the process again, and this last one has run almost 4 years?

I feel sorry for the .XXX people (just a bit) but if I was them, I would have taken the last 9-5 vote as a clear indication that it wasn't going to work out.

Anyone get the list yet?

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 02:25 AM

Im out, enjoy your day/night everyone

96ukssob · 03-30-2007, 02:30 AM

kick ass

RawAlex · 03-30-2007, 02:39 AM

This has been a very good month for the true online porn indsutry. COPA gets a kicked down yet again, and now .XXX gets the drubbing it so richly deserved.

Now if we could just get AFF to pay affiliates for the sales lost because of their use of Zango, we would really have something.

scottybuzz · 03-30-2007, 02:42 AM

dam i was going to make millions from this.

jk

davecummings · 03-30-2007, 02:45 AM

Congrats to all of you who helped save the Adult Internet as we now know it. The 9-5 vote killed the attempted takeover!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whew!!!

I wouldn't count on it. It might be better to just take it how it is and move on, most everyone's still making plenty of money with AFF and since they've kicked Zango to the curb, things should be better now.

Yeah she was beginning to get on my nerves.

This seems like as good a time as any to make my first post on GFY. Hello to all the sheep and idiots and whatnot..... And.....oh yeah..... I'm here for the cock.....where's Juicy anyway....and what ever happened to Izzy......and teh Boy Alley?

A big thank you to A1R3K for posting the link to the live vote webcast. It was fascinating to watch and I honestly was holding my breath on that one.

I think we should post a big thank you to the ICANN board for recognizing, among other things, the huge fact that, on a worldwide basis, the adult community did not support this tld.

Ohhh....BTW.....SIG SPOT!

chupacabra · 03-30-2007, 02:54 AM

first copa and now this? i'm relaxed..!

Bossman · 03-30-2007, 02:59 AM

Those who had initially supported the .xxx tld in backroom deals can now finally see a way out, where they will not be stigmatized... my advice is to accept the ICANN decision, not look back, and focus on new business

Nodtveidt · 03-30-2007, 03:10 AM

Believe it or not, but several years ago, I thought that the creation of .xxx might be a good idea...much easier to find porn sites that way, since everything you type in, if it existed, would be a porn site. But this was only momentary; after thinking of what would happen (government restrictions, easy content filtering, squatting, companies buying up names with no intention of developing adult sites, etc the list goes on and on), I became adamantly opposed to the idea and am opposed to it to this day. That's why I voiced my opinion with ICANN during this phase.

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 07:12 AM

this was a great thread

GeorgeK · 03-30-2007, 08:40 AM

Just a quick heads-up to people, ICM had a "Reconsideration Request" filed with ICANN listed at the bottom of:

http://www.icann.org/committees/reconsideration/

"Request 06-4: ICM Registry"

In October, they withdrew it temporarily, but I imagine they might resume things on that front at some point. Worth keeping an eye on:

http://www.icann.org/committees/reco...-4-29oct06.htm

Quote:

On behalf of my client, ICM Registry, I am writing to withdraw ICM's amended reconsideration request at this time, pending preparation and submission of additional materials. This withdrawal is made without prejudice to ICM, and on the express condition that it does not constitute a waiver or compromise of ICM's rights in the future to reinstate its reconsideration request, which shall be deemed timely filed under the ICANN Bylaws, and/or seek independent review of ICANN's actions in connection with .xxx.

We very much appreciate the Committee?s consideration of the ICM request for reconsideration to date.

it's done. they can't do anything at this point. the audio stream will make it pretty clear as to the positions of each on the panel.

that was reconsidered in jan and why we all got our panties in a bunch again in jan 2007. i'll put the audio stream up as soon as i rip it off the dat tape from last night.

tree · 03-30-2007, 08:52 AM

that rocks cheers

seeric · 03-30-2007, 09:47 AM

Well, here is the audio stream I recorded last night. Took me a bit to rip it off the DAT tape and normalize the audio. It is uncut and exactly as they spoke it.

.XXX was defeated 9-5 with Dr. Tomey abstaining from the vote. If you remember correctly he is the one responsible for even bringing this to ICANN in not so many words.

pornguy · 03-30-2007, 10:49 AM

Damn A1R3K. She is harsh on you.

seeric · 03-30-2007, 10:57 AM

i think he will try to bring it back, but based on the boards continued position and inability to budge on the merits of the proposal, i'd say that it will end up the same.

one thing that i really appreciated was that they recognized "CONSIDERABLE OPPOSITION" within the sponsored community that stuart was so happy to speak for. That shows me that they do in fact have people reading message boards and we did in fact make an impact on the final outcome of the decision. They do pay attention, and if it comes back, we will be right there again to drum up the support. I will never let my guard down, if it is not .xxx there will be some other opportunist with $ signs in his or her eyes that will crosshair us as easy targets. This is the most unity I've ever seen in adult. I am happily surprised.

Fuck I just realized I could be poisoned or shot in Phoenix. Haha.

polish_aristocrat · 03-30-2007, 11:21 AM

my final words on this

first of all, im still very happy that .xxx is defeated

second, im tired of it, yes - tired, i've been fighting this .xxx and paying attention, and reposting on GFY all the updates for past 2 years or so

now I could go on and analyze the post-vote comments but seriously, we shouldn't do it, we should just relax and enjoy our victory

the message is clear - no one wants .xxx apart from ICM who plan to make money from it, by exploiting the adult industry, regardless how ironic that sounds

ICM may try to sue ICANN etc but that wont accomplish much IMO

they may also try to come back in the new round of appplications in 1-2 years from now (not sure when exactly it will start), but nothing will change till then, so the opposition will be still huge, and .xxx will get most likely declined again

so in their own interest it is to stop trying, and move to other biz ventures, instead of spending time and money lobbying for this .xxx shit

and yes, its a great feeling how we, the webmasters, the GFY'ers, defeated .xxx, even though not everyone can see the importance of it
