Who's behind .XXX besides ASACP & HELMY?
 

Anyone know? Research and Share the Info!

Not I. I think that is a HORRIBLE idea.

Anyone who supports that should be black listed from the industry.

worst idea ever

I wonder if they will set a higher price like 10k for sleazydream.xxx cause they'd know you would want it.

you think someone will tell you?

this board is full off pussies who are worried about getting shot and pissed on.

Herd us into .xxx domains and the they can ban .xxx and make us cry.

Weren't you backing ASACP for a while? Is this going to make you pull back support, or will you continue to work together with them?

I love the idea of ASACP, but you've got to admit that this domain situation is far from being implemented on the basis of stopping CP.

imagine the trademark lawsuits on similar named sites - that alone would be enormous and reason enough not to do this idea

no organization is 100% perfect - just cause i don't agree with this one thing doesn't mean I don't think that overall the asacp doesn't do good work.

i support most of what the asacp does - I'm not behind the .xxx idea - but i am behind most other things that they do and I'll continue to donate money to them for that reason unless this .xxx thing goes overboard which personally i don't think will happen.

Everyone pile into the ghettos!

anyone else remember TLDNS?

I had some good .xxx's back then..

Jesus, Just give every porn person with a .com the .xxx and redirect while leaving the other .xyz's alone while preventing any further adult development of new .xyz's.

Simple, fucking easy

The red A stitched in your fucking sweater.

Doesn't anyone else see a semblence of a story we all read as children?

Robin Nixon's system?? or the other guy from UK I think who sold those .xxx names, also DNSystems (gordon) sold some i think :)

I think people in this thread: people who want to buy .xxx domains

yeah Robin Nixon's thing.. heh.. anything.anything great idea at the time.

Yeh, I got a couple from Robin, was a great idea from a smart / bright person :)

Truth Hurts, sounds familiar - I can't remember who you are? Were you on Ynot and netpond back in the day?

thanks

Todd

good point

I was up all night when he first gave away the free ones haha

Yea.. remember em well - bought a load!

And... see where you are going :winkwink:

:1orglaugh These were the how-quick-can-you-type days!!

ahahahha - i spent an entire night picking up those worthless domains until my fingers hurt - i had insane good ones - of course i knew there was little chance Robin's idea would fly. i think i even went ahead and bought a few of them. i dropped 10 grand on .TV domains too. meh..........me and domains never got along very well. I screwed up and forgot to renew webcamgirls.com - dunno how much that'd be worth now.

Smart words Sleazy. :thumbsup

100% agreement with anybody or anything is not a possibility. I agree with their stance against CP, but I'm a little turned off after reading this junk. I'm sure most of us are in the same boat.

Cheers! :thumbsup

those that bought the .xxx domains ...are they going to have them activated under icann?

Who isn't against child porn? That's not an accomplishment - to say you are against child porn. Who in the adult industry isn't against it?

Every religious anti-free speech group says they are against child porn too - do you want them representing the adult industry?

Anyone claiming to represent the adult industry should make protecting free speech one of their top goals. Without free speech, there is no adult industry - and no America as described in the Constitution.

If ASACP is working to help the people who want to censor legal adult porn, then how are they any better than any other anti-free speech group who claims they are doing what they do to protect children?

It's even worse if they are claiming it's for the children, but they are really taking money from some group who just wants to sell domains (and screw over free speech in the process), and then presenting it as a move to protect children.

If Helmy is involved with ASACP and they also own Xbiz, wouldn't that make every company who advertises on their site and in their magazine helping screw the rest of us over?

Do any of these people run adult sites?

It really needs some proving as to whether there are smart ass conduct and conflict of interest shit going on.

If, and I don't know this, the ASACP is little more than a brush to make Helmy shine and this "domain name" has a face Advisory Committee that sit and talk shit while someone else motives irrespective of em - then it's crap.

It may also be the "belief" of the "owner" that ASACP is a subtle tool for us in protecting the industry - that's fine, - but it's hypocracy as well :-)

But.. I'd hate to say that any of the above is relevant - I'd like to hear from any member of the "Advisory Board" and find out if they are simply an "Advisory Board" or a "Management and Policy Committee" - and, if not, who the fuck is?

There is nada wrong with ASACP and they got my full support if they are, in fact, doing what they appear to be doing.

i agree fully.

duke

yup!!

completely useless trivia:
I designed the TLDNS website :)

Robin Nixon was a brillaint man...I can't remember the number of downloads of his software though, but it was pretty impressive...it basically just changed the user's DNS table (or some fancy computing thing...I'm not a tech ;-))

and back on topic:
.xxx is the stupidest idea since Greedo shooting first...but I'm sure those involved are too busy counting the money they'll make from the SUCKERS who'll line up to buy the .xxx domains...

LMAO... fucking brillant. :1orglaugh

this is NOT good

If your name is trademarked, the domain registrar will give it to you.

Many people are afraid to say anything negative about ASACP because they are supposedly an anti-child porn organization.

Like Bush said, you're either with ASACP or you're with the child-porn criminals. :1orglaugh

interesting thread

not me... if asacp & co think they can merge us all under crappy .xxx domains they can suck my cock
easy as that

:warning Agreed

Fucking-a..

Ya know for the life of me I cannot see why people get so caught up in these threads of 2257, and .xxx. I'm starting to believe the main posters of the 10-100 threads like this are the surfers and small fries who will either be run out of business when anything requiring a nickel from their handful of sign ups a month takes away from their beer money. :disgust

The government, and politicians can talk all they fucking want to about shit effecting this industry, or anything else. Until it passes, who fucking cares. Even if it passes, you are dealing with an entire INDUSTRY which will bite back (i.e. lawsuits) contesting any new regulations the same as a MIcro$oft, oil companies, or anything else would. This industry makes more than enough money as a whole, and has plenty of serious players to take these matters up. So until the dust settles, stop fucking bitching about this shit! :disgust

Just as many laws on the books, you are not going to be able to force an entire INDUSTRY to go to any .xxx domain. Maybe you can grandfather it, much like telephone numbers with a new area code, or new people who enter the business. But you are not going to make a business give up their dot com's. Period.

Everything that is being talked about now, regardless of which groups, companies, or people trying to get rich off these ideas will have ALL of these issues challenged in court. Whether under free speech, or under the fact they are trying to regulate an ENTIRE INDUSTRY. You've seen how effective the government is in regulation of anything else in the United States, or abroad. :disgust

Another thing, all this fucking bullshit over 2257.. Do you honestly think the DOJ is just sitting around salavating for some new law to go into place so they can go after anyone, and everyone in non-compliance within the porn industry? :321GFY

How many times do you hear about people getting caught, arrested, or have the DOJ or any other acronym knocking on their doors now? Right. Next to none, and normally the biggest offenders. Do you honestly think the DOJ has nothing better to do with world terror, and all the shit going on to chase down every pornographer, webmasters, and so on?? Ridiculous.

Face the fact that these things do not mean jack shit until passed by Congress, and all of the court cases settled. The only people who should be worried about this kinda bullshit are people who are probably doing a lot more than breaking the 2257 to begin with. Or are one industry change from going back to flipping a burger.

:disgust

I hope we can stop this from happening. I guarantee the next step is to make this mandatory :mad:

Can I try and help make thigns clear:

Prior to registration being opened there will be a period where potential registrants that have Intellectual Property interests in specific names can come forward to register that interest in those names and such names will be equitably allocated and subject to a recognized dispute resolution policy, where more than one party makes a claim over a particular domain name.
