I know this is typical for some in business & especially when a TLD is created and I'm not knocking anyone for that. I'm just not a power hungry or greedy person and it was just a big turn off for me. I didn't feel that any investment I'd make in a .XXX domain would be safe.

Nothing against the .XXX people BTW, I don't know any of them or their personal stories and I do admire their ability to create .XXX.
