Probably the parent company of your hosting provider.

sicone · 12-12-2006, 06:05 PM

is it 2257 issues they are investigating?

I wouldn't hand over shit to them

stickyfingerz · 12-12-2006, 06:06 PM

are they your host, or domain registrar? If not I dont see how they would have any kind of authority over anything.

sicone · 12-12-2006, 06:07 PM

looks like a domain registrar or hosting company???

polish_aristocrat · 12-12-2006, 06:08 PM

do you have a picture of ebus_dk on your server?

stickyfingerz · 12-12-2006, 06:08 PM

http://www.directnic.com/ they own that. Are your domains with them?

crockett · 12-12-2006, 06:08 PM

Are your domain's registared via directNIC.com looks like it's one of their companies..

edit oh and btw Directnic is New orleans if you remember their posts during the flooding.. and stickyfingers...

SleazyDream · 12-12-2006, 06:08 PM

if they are your host and you don't have 2257 - they SHOULD shut you down

post the site in question. they make it sound like you deal in kiddy porn.

I would ask for more info first. It could be the ebus_dk guy

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:10 PM

Actually the domains in question are through DirectNic which they do list on their page, but don't say they're a part of their company.

As far as hosting goes, I go through http://www.advancedhosters.com

Other than that, I see no connection to me. One thing though, they did list all of the domains that I have listed through DirectNic, including ones that I'm not using.

I don't see how they can try to police my sites like that.

After Shock Media · 12-12-2006, 06:10 PM

Id so mirror and transfer your sites post haste to another host and registrar.

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:11 PM

Ok, while I was typing my message, you mentioned they're part of DirectNic.

Here's my network of sites here http://www.slicksnetwork.com

I don't see anything wrong on my sites, everything is legal.

crockett · 12-12-2006, 06:14 PM

This will be interesting if it does end up to be directnic.. I've been paying their high registry fees with my best names and sites, to avoid problems like this. Simply because directnic seemed to be adult based.

Sleazy Slick doesn't host kiddie porn

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:15 PM

One thing that scares me about this is that they claim to have a legal lock on my account, so I guess that means that there's no way I can transfer away.

After Shock Media · 12-12-2006, 06:16 PM

Crap, just re read and saw the legal lock part.

You need a lawyer, cause your caught between a nasty place and an even nastier one.

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:17 PM

If they shut down my sites, I'll be totally fucked because I have a lot of traffic flowing through those sites, that's my life.

Maybe try calling up the dierectNic guys one or two of them post here. So maybe they could point you in the right direction.

Please keep us updated because I'm going to be moving my Teen names if it ends up being them.

Hotrocket · 12-12-2006, 06:18 PM

well to be honest that Filthy Brats has some pretty young looking girls on it..not saying they are underage..just saying that I could see someone questioning the ages of some of those girls and I can see a prob if you dont have 2257 docs for those especially.

Jace · 12-12-2006, 06:19 PM

intercosmos is Directnic, and the owner posts on GFY

Martin3 · 12-12-2006, 06:20 PM

What TGP owners have 2257 for their thumbs? I can't think of any. This is why there is an injunction on the whole 2257 stuff. You know about rules that are impossible to follow..

sicone · 12-12-2006, 06:22 PM

EVERY single girl on that page comes from a legit sponsor. I definately stay far away from anything that's shady.

the injunction only applies to Free Speech Coalition members and that hasnt stopped the FBI from doing inspections..they inspected a FSC member very recently..
anyway the law says if you have explicit pics on your site..you gotta have the docs..being a TGP is irrelevant

Im not saying you are doing anything shady at all..just giving you a perspective as to why/what may be causing someone to question you about having the docs and what they may be refering to.

I wish you good luck man

LiveDose · 12-12-2006, 06:29 PM

Sounds like someone is trying to fuck with you and stir the pot.

Get yourself a lawyer. Legal lock?

If this is legit I would run not walk to another registrar.

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:31 PM

I have a couple of domains with GoDaddy and NameCheap. I wonder if they'd try to push them into coming after me like they are.

How so? I have over 700 adult domains with Go Daddy. No problems.

I always hear people saying stay away from Go Daddy, but I've never seen any actual reasons or experiences to make me stay away. Its always hearsay.

Slick · 12-12-2006, 06:40 PM

Well, I just put my domains at low security, it says it takes 15 minutes to take effect, we'll see if they did lock me or not.

brizzad · 12-12-2006, 06:42 PM

transfer all of your domians, switch hosts, and send them a letter that says FUCK YOU FAGGOT BITCH hahahahahahaS and include polaroids of nude 14-17 year old girls

BoyAlley · 12-12-2006, 06:43 PM

Uhm. Am I the only one that has a problem with 3rd party companies requesting private identification documents for people depicted on a website?

Now any asshat that wants thinks they can request the driver's license, social security number, other personal information, contact details, copies of contracts, physical descriptions, and the favorite food of any model they want any time they want for whatever reason they want?

Making the personal information of models available to federal inspectors is one thing, starting to hand it out freely without any legal cause or reason to any company that requests it is another matter entirely.

Aren't there privacy laws in many states in this country that would forbid this type of disemenation? I'm thinking yes........

Ask Juicy about that one.. I remember them locking one of his domains about 2 years ago.. Think it cost him around $500 to get it unlocked if I remember right. He posted about it here on GFY. So if the search works you can probably find it.

If they are still "legal locked" (lol, what a term) then you should consider setting up a new TGP on a domain registered elsewhere, possibly another host too, and start funnelling traffic towards it. Just be prepared for the worst.

BTW her sig says "The Producers, Inc" - if you do a web search that appears to be a marketing company. I guess it's just someone wearing more than one hat but you may also wish to follow that up. The street address in her sig and the contact address on http://www.pros1.com/ do not match.

Thanks, I'll dig more into that

I just tried to move away one of my domains to Namecheap. We'll see if it goes through, if so, I'll get the rest moved over ASAP.

Change the registrar, tell them that they can't receive the 2257 documents from you because they are not a government agency and you have to protect the models privacy, but they can try their luck with the linked content owners. If a responsible agency would contact you, you would of course show them all the 2257 documents.

Because the girls on majorpervert seem underage, the average user might think that they indeed are, but in fact they just look young.

I totally agree with BA on this. Huge privacy issue. Its bad enough right now anyone with 20 bucks can buy content and get the 2257 info of any porno chick they want to track down as it is.

Slick · 12-12-2006, 07:04 PM

I suppose that I should email them and see what they say. I just don't know what I should tell them. They want a current state issued photo id for every model on my page, that's something I definately don't got.

Anyone know of a good adult related attorney ???

Great comments, I'll definately keep that in mind when I contact them.

I just hate how everyone is so fast to cry out "underage girl" nowadays.
