On ME? You might want to back away from the implied threats thing, Josh. I have purposely stayed out of EVERY thread that had anything to do with Fleshlight out of respect. The fact that Fleshlight is on that list is due to the consensus of everyone else in this, I didn't say a damn thing about it. You do not want to tickle this dragon; keep my name out of your mouth and I'll do the same...

it's no point to debate which companies will be accepted on any list untill we
have a fixed set of rules and terms of service. The rules and terms will be
equal for everyone and every application will agree to comply with set rules.
Only then we can objectively review every company based on those criteria
and can any disputes be backed up with factual arguments.

Any accusations to whether a company will be accepted or refused makes
no sense till there's collectively approved rules and terms to which they should comply.

BoyAlley 08-15-2007 11:01 AM

To avoid any legal problems with a "bad" list, why not just come up with a labeling system that has specific requirements that need to be met in order to attain?

Sort of a "Best Business Practices" type of thing with some teeth.

Then your site can list for affiliates all of the companies that are following those practices.

AND if you think you could actually pull it off and want to give the system teeth:

Make a requirement that those that are labeled won't do business with those that are not labeled.

Now, good luck accomplishing that I think you'd need a lot of big players on board first. But if people are really serious about this, I'd say that's how you do it. :2 cents:

shane's world hasn't accused anyone of anything that wasn't proven already via screenshots and fact.

anyone else posting things were asked to post PROOF. we know how shit is done around here.

POST PROOF or be banned.

fact.

period. you won't win this battle "we didn't know" all you want.

i don't need to argue with you.

have a great day.

It's very easy to define rules regarding user uploaded content.
by screening/reviewing new content before approval.....and of course
there's always people who manage to bypass whatever you come up with.
If a site will follow up on complaints which are verifiable that's enough.

When people take swift and correct actions to valid complaints than in my
book that's no reason to punish sites for the actions of cheating users.

Valid complaint......remove content/affliate within x days after complaint...
case solved.

I have no idea who Wanton is either. Awful.

What did I lie about?

If it had anything to do with me telling someone letting me suck them off doesn't mean that they're gay, that's not really a lie. Well, maybe it is, but just a little white lie. No harm, no harm.

You don't require all the top dogs to join in......even starting with just a few
sites you can make a difference especially when consumers will have access
to the info in terms of a consumer seal of fair business and value for money
kinda thing.....

Will it solve all these problems tomorrow......it certainly won't but it's a step
in the right direction which will gain momentum when it's executed properly.
It certainly will make a difference and gives both consumers and companies
to carefully select the people they want to do business with.

so lets start this way

XTube_Lance 08-15-2007 11:12 AM

To those who think XTube is comprised entirely of ripped off content, you are only showing us you know nothing about our site. I understand that on the outside it appears to be stolen content because there is a lot of sponsor content there. What you fail to realize is what I posted before - Webmasters, like you, put it there with a referral code and sponsor name.

When it comes to content approval the law does not allow for us to monitor each upload. If we did that we would become, by definition, the provider of the content - which is completely false. We are a provider of a tool that enables people to share home-made porn.

In addition to the home-made stuff we realize that webmasters are an important part of the adult community, so we added features that allow you to post sponsor content and use your linking codes to get credit for clicks.

I have been in the content reviewers seat since the beginning of XTube and yes, there were a lot of violations posted (all removed). You people should thank me, in person, for all of the changes I have imposed on the site and the processes that have reduced the number of violations so dramatically that we have not seen a single DMCA take-down request in months.

If you find a violation on XTube there are a number of ways to report it and have it dealt with. Considering there are no reports coming in I can only believe that I am hearing the voices of people who have not taken the time to gather the facts that support their opinions. That is fine, you do not need to do that... Unless of course you want to be believed.

ServerGenius 08-15-2007 11:12 AM

The problem now that many are willing to do something but most fails because
people end up in personal fights with eachother based on personal grudges
instead of a fixed set of terms and rules.......if there's an approved framework
with rules and regulations every application/complaint will be handled according
the exact same criteria....and review will verify and conclude which companies
will end up on what list.

Any news yet? :Graucho

forget about good and bad lists until we collectively come up with rules and
terms of service where companies will be reviewed to. Saying you can't
join coz I once saw one of your banners on x site makes no sense coz till
we have something to judge companies on and where companies can decide
to adjust their services in order to comply to them or not.

Exactly what I was envisioning in my post.

It would have to be independent somehow, which in this industry, isn't an easy thing to be.

If it weren't, personal business interests of those that ran it would quickly get in the way. :2 cents:

Brujah 08-15-2007 11:20 AM

Add Xpays to the good business list.

XTube_Lance 08-15-2007 11:20 AM

The best way to isolate businesses that are not 'good' is to ignore them completely. Only businesses that are good get recognized and if a person wants to know about a 'bad' business their first clue is the fact that it is not listed.

But doing it that way does not allow anyone to vent or burn someone who has burned them, which it seems like is the point of this thing. Big-it-up and focus on the good, not the bad.

Perhaps a public application process. To get listed on the exclusive 'good; list you have apply in public. All registered members vote on a daily basis for the businesses that are applying. You vote once a month - good, or bad. This would enable the good list to have fluidity and real-time relevance to their position in the marketplace. If they start off good and fuck up, then they move down.

In addition to that members can post comments (within a business profile?) to talk about how great they are, or not great (by clicking a good or bad radio button). Not great comments are moderated to ensure laws are not broken.

Good, I'm done with you too. You very obviously refuse to see simple facts.

This is just like 2257 - the DMCA info needs to be on the site. The law explicitly states that. Everyone can see whether or not it is. In this case, it isn't. No detective work needed for that.

A1R3K, I think you have one for the "bad business" list here :2 cents:

Now if a user submits copyrighted content we can't police our site for it nor can we moderate so says the law. If you guys are going to make a stink on here and accuse companies of being "bad" know why first.
