I can appreciate your thoughts on this but I disagree. If you have a nice paysite with original content that people actually want to fap to, then you'll be successful.
I don't think the biggest companies in the world treat people like crap. People complain about banks and their fees but if I owned a bank I'd charge whatever the fuck I wanna charge. And if people didn't like it, they'd go to another bank/energy company/online music company/domain registrar/whatever. I'd either adjust if enough people left or just keep on charging what I need to to make a profit. Any company can charge anything they want for anything they want. The consumer then decides from which companies they will purchase.
FORCING people, or in the case of teengfs, deceptively encouraging people to sign up for something they don't want, is a serious blight on the adult industry. IMHO, it has a large negative affect on the ability of long-term adult webmasters to make money a year or two down the line. Shit, it's even a detriment on tomorrow. If I have a tgp and I send a surfer to teengfs and he signs up, you think he's coming back to my tgp tomorrow to look for more sites to join? Hell no. He's deleting that bookmark and moving on. That crap on teengfs is far worse then a cross sale below the submit. Far, far worse.
