An open question to XBiz
 

Do you support .xxx

Yes or no, that is all I ask.

Silence will speak volumes.

bump for a good question

bump....

Xbiz is bipartisan.

:question

bump for diapers.

XBiz serves the interests of XBiz and those who sleep with or associate when them.

It's wonderful to have an advocate for the adult industry who can remain totally unbiased and usher forward assumptions on TLD's, organize conferences with unqualified "panels" (often pulled from "industry leaders" - whoever the hell they are), explain to the industry "how it will be". I'm all shivering with excitement...

man your on tonight :thumbsup

Well Tony.. it would be nice to know where XBiz proposes to take the adult industry and explain what we need to do to comply and earn a living as humble webmasters :)


And a bump for an answer to the simple question raised by baddog - I know XBiz very rarely visits GFY and it can take some time to construct a suitable response to a simple question :thumbsup

Well, I presented the same question where he resides.

The answer will determine whether I stay on as a mod or not.

bump for baddog......

Nice one - hard to miss it :thumbsup

this should be good....

doubt they will answer but heres a bump for baddog

bump since this looks like it could get REALLY interesting..

Transparency is healthy - obviously it's lacking and in an incestuous conditon and confused with money right now :pimp

I'd like to know the answer to this question as well.

bump....

I would certainly like to hear the answer to this question, so here is another bump for Baddog

bump

(due to being interested to see if xbiz intends to alienate the majority of adult webmasters..)

I can´t avoid it... bump!

i'd be shocked if we get and answer and if we do....I'd be even more shocked if it's the truth...

You're just waiting on an answer from ANY employee from XBiz?

Would be nice to know, but I doubt there will be an answer.

:1orglaugh

I was pondering the same thought :thumbsup

I would not only like to hear a response from them, but I would really like to know who is on the so called list of .xxx supporters that someone said they had last year and we would all be suprised at who was actually on that list.

sure, if they are speaking on behalf of the company . . . . that will work.

Agreed. Not how I'd have gone about getting an answer, personally. I'm sure baddog knows what he's doing, though.

Bump for baddog and a one word response from XBiz who may have trouble comprehending "Yes" or "No".




PS BD - Notice there is blindness setting in on the "other place" - speaks volumes...

XBIZ does not support .XXX. XBIZ only supports ASACP and FSC. This is an official statement.

its a wrap!

Thank you Tom ;-)

It would be nice to see this attitude adopted in real life.

Why is XBiz giving attention to a second attempt at the introduction of .XXX TLD's by Lawley and giving credence to his continued attempts to line his pockets by giving him a platform to air his views and waste webmaster time at the conference next month?

Likely because it's better than turning a blind eye to it, which seems to be what 99% of the industry wants to do.

If he shows up at the conference and he's as much of a loon as he was when I interviewed him a year or more ago, then even his supporters may end up looking for the exit doors.

Thank you for your response.

For those wondering why they are giving Lawley the time of day, it is my understanding that the discussion is to get webmasters in front of him and make him explain exactly what his agenda is.

So, now that XBiz has responded, what is the position of say Adult.com, Klixxx and AVN?

A comedy act on the panel can at least be an entertaining diversion edgeprod :)

I can understand Lawley's overwhelming concern for the world's children - that they be protected from adult content under .XXX TLD's. This has clearly been Stuart's lifetime mission and longterm goal and on a pro rata scale, heavily related to the thickness of cash notes in his pocket. Obviously sainthood is not far away...

I wonder by the response if perhaps I used the wrong word when I used "supports."

Perhaps a better question would be, is XBiz in favor of the .xxx TLD.

Supports might imply that there was some financial backing. That really isn't my question.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

That was the impression I got from him, too .. of course, my article had no bias, but personally .. he seemed slimy.

Notice these words earlier baddog and the possible side-step option :1orglaugh

Copies of a notorized sworn affivadit be OK?? *lol*

Damn... you got a hard job there edge - but someone has to slip into the swamp to interview it's slimy creatures :winkwink: :thumbsup

Hehe. Most of my interview subjects (see last month's cover story about Silvercash, which was mine) are wonderful. Every once in a while, though ...

*grin*
