We'll completely open up the process of building and launching and we'll treat all affiliates fairly and professionally whether they are minnows, whales or something in between.
To contact me search for my username here on Skype or Yahoo. (Beaner and ThePornNerd - we have already been in touch via ICQ) I will be very busy for the next 30 days or so as I am relocating my home, office and family to another state, but I think this project will be fun and profitable and I think we can show that traffic from small publishers is much more valuable than anyone is admitting.
I can cover most of the upfront costs of acquiring licenses and any content needed (provided we stay reasonable and don't try to go too big too fast) as well as hosting and I have a significant number of billing options available.
I am aware that like me, Beaner and ThePornNerd have their own programs already so the 3 of us know it's not that hard to bypass all the bullshit and bullshitters and just start making money, but it would be fun to show everyone else how little value these programs actually provide to anyone that you can't go out and do on your own.
If we treat our minnows right we may end up with their whales - or at least teach the whales how to monetize their own traffic instead of giving it to the bumbling bros.
It's a ridiculous idea I know, and I am half hoping you guys won't be into it because I have a ton on my plate right now, but the attitudes expressed in this thread are making me sick so if you guys are up for it, I know we can do this.

It's funny you should propose this because I am doing the following:
Launching a new erotic HD affiliate program end of this week/early next (finishing uploading the new HD promo tools, which is taking forever). I'm just about finished with this new Program so we've missed the boat on this one.
BUT....
I have ALSO just acquired a competing network of 50+ amateur sites. When I get back from the European shows in June I plan on re-designing and re-launching THAT affiliate program so by year's end I will have THREE networks and APs. LOL Busy, busy.
But this new acquisition would be PERFECT for what you propose! The only startup costs would be re-designing the AP and the network. I have over 2TB of new content to play with so let's talk when you settle in. Best of luck with your move!!
