Okay. When you get to town send one of your minions to find me and I'll get my phone number to you and then just call me at your convenience and we'll have a drink together.

sucks to be Casting.XXX ..........

unless Fabian is a hypocrite and lets them set up a non .XXX domain to funnel joins through.

allowing .XXX to use non .XXX domains to support a .XXX site is hypocrisy.

I would like to be a fly on that wall...

+1 for Manwin.

Now if they would just do the same thing for piracy...

He said the site they send their traffic to must not in any way promote the .XXX site.

Wish I was gonna be in Vegas for this alone. Screw the show.

...and clarified saying that ifriends.com could send traffic, but not ifriends.xxx

So long as the facade doesn't mention XXX, it seems they're good to go. Never mind that ifriends actually (implicitly) support XXX

and send another one for me, I'd like to commemorate this momentous occasion:winkwink::thumbsup

And if the Internet had never been invented .............

I'm very critical of Manwin, but this is a very good move by them. It needs others to step to the plate and then we'll see IF the rest of the business has balls.

:1orglaugh :thumbsup

It would of made no difference. You're dreaming.

From somewhere Manwin got the money to buy Mansef, or it was a change of name and figure head.

They also had money to invest in their sites.

One of which was Pornhub and until someone can prove they upload the content that is assumed "user uploads" or they ignore DMCA notices they have broken no laws. This whole industry allows unrestricted access to under 18s, so none of us are "whiter than white".

They continue to invest when most are shrinking.

I hate the piracy aspect of porn. Long before it cost me a penny I was fighting it. But hating Manwin because they are taking a lot of the traffic and turning it into free loaders is hypocritical coming from anyone who had a TGP site. That was what you did to the magazine industry 10 years ago. Just evolution and we were the dinosaurs fighting free porn. The business has changed and we need to change with it or retire.

As for them buying up sites. The sellers as you point out won't sell if everything is going well. They will sell if they're offered the right price. Even RK would sell if the price was right.

This is a good move and shows the rest of the industry what they should be doing. Send .xxx to Coventry. And it withers on the vine. Play it's game and others refuse to play and they go down with it.

It's up to them who they do business with or chose not to. Good luck with any legal action.

Manwin have shown you clearly how fragile your TLD is. Without porn sites taking up this domain it will just result in a lot of blank pages on type ins. That's people looking for a specific site and putting in the .xxx extension.

Search engines can't list sites that don't exist and won't give the ones that do have the extension good rankings unless a lot of other sites link to their .xxx domain.

If the porn on these sites is the crap end of the business, the surfers will see that. If the Tubes and free sites can't find people to business with, they won't use the TLD.

To survive a coupe f years you have to get porn onto .xxx extensions. Or it dies a death. Unless you can get Governments to pass laws banning porn on nothing but .xxx. With the prospect of ISPs and mobiles carriers offering "a child friendly environment" there's a strong likely hood .xxx will get an auto ban from these service providers. Sticking another harpoon into the floundering whale.

Forget about 3rd world countries banning .xxx. The amount of money coming from them is miniscule. Worry about major ISPs and mobile phone carriers banning anything on a .xxx.

Get your CV up to date. :thumbsup

That's a very good move. Congrats :thumbsup

XXX is just a newer scam.

Watch the video, it's hilarious! McAfee? Micropayment? get the fuck out of Here.

I am gonna buy the ".porn" extension and sell it to you guys for $20 / Domain (better deal)

:thumbsup:thumbsup

all this uproar just reminds me when tubes were on the horizon and it was...

Popular GFY host: "I will not host tubes sites."

Few months later, same host: "We will begin hosting tubes as this industry has begun to accept them"

everyone will be friends again in 6 months and be the popunders will flow.

LOL

Do everyone a huge favour and show Robbie a peak at the kind of volume just one of your tubes does selling memberships to paysites so he can finally shut the fuck up about tubes not selling memberships and being only about cams and dating. :2 cents:

Fabian can you ensure that any content from http://www.shemale.xxx and http://www.ladyboy.xxx doesn't hit any tube sites or other sites you run, please?

Thanks - that would be a great help.

Would be a good time for other program owners to jump on the bandwagon, release an anti-.xxx statement and get some publicity in the process. :)

They will not be approved for the content partner program or any ads on tj

I would pay more to watch this meeting than I would to attend the show.

Rather than paying to fly to Vegas he'll probably be user uploaded to Vegas.

I sale short tickets:pimp

:2 cents::thumbsup
:1orglaugh

Yeah...looks like the team at Pornhub didn't read the press release.

Someone please insert "face palm" picture.

I'll keep Claudia company while you guys have some beers. :pimp

:1orglaugh

Well that's great news :thumbsup

If I remember correctly, this is starting to sound like the Network Solutions monopoly and ".com" problem all over again:Oh crap

How about when somebody steals it and posts it.
Will I have to spend time and expense DMCA'ing it - or can you watch out for the big clear Shemale.XXX logo over it?

Is there a court date set yet?
Would be fun to stream that live on GFY like the GFY awards we did :thumbsup

This is not going to turn into a DMCA discussion, sorry.

:throwup:throwup

So that would be NO. You'll continue to allow our content clearly marked with shemale.xxx to be pilfered and uploaded to your tube sites for you to make profit, therefore doing business with websites using the .xxx tld.
Only Manwin could be so hypocritical. You are doing business with .xxx domains.

PS - Want to buy a shemale program? :-)

Yup, filled entirely with viruses and tracking software I hear. You would have to be an idiot to JUST VISIT a .xxx domain, let alone use a credit card on one of them!

.xxx sites should be avoided like the plague. The public should be aware. They need to be warned about this. :thumbsup

How about you do everyone a huge favor and karate chop your penis a few times. That is providing of course, that you can find it.

In the event that that proves difficult, you can always buy some of them penis pills advertised on Fabian's "user upload" sites :)

they really have balls!!

this guy knows what time it is :2 cents:

Go Fuck YOurself ............................

bump for Manwin :thumbsup:thumbsup

Robbie should video it and put it out on Youtube. :thumbsup

This is a remarkably diverse and entertaining set of opinions in one thread. ;-)

Love, Hate, Suspicion, Intrigue and conspiracy theories rotate though each and every post!

I LOVE this industry at moments like this!

Colin

p.s Go Fabian! (cheerleader pom-pom here at Wasteland with a buttplug as the handle, custom crafted for some pasty fat old British guy's ass.)

What webmasters is Manwin trying to help?

One other thing that I am finding wildly amusing of late is that adult industry pundit, Dark Lady ( http://www.huffingtonpost.com/theresa-darklady-reed ) posted up a Seth MacFarlane cartoon as a parody of ICM Registry on October 19th. A LONG time before the current wave of Dot-xxx spots hit the airway. See it here for a good laugh: http://dotxxxopposition.com/2011/10/...-icm-registry/

Is Dark Lady a psychic and knew they were going to play the "sheep card"?
Or, (more likely) is she just brilliant at satire and parody.

I've been in this industry since 1994, and the current set of variables are just grand to watch develop!

Anyway, bookmark http://dotxxxopposition.com/ as that is the real hidden gem run by Dark Lady for news and views of the ICM carpetbagging from an insider perspective, not influenced or bribed by the various powers.

Speaking of Dark Lady, she just posted. It's brilliant:

Go Manwin Go!

:2 cents:


Shhhhhh... you had me at buttplug as a handle.

Did anyone really expect anything different? This sudden manwin asskissingfest is enough to make you want to throw up.

crack dealers , 100 million hits a day , the reason people hate crack dealers is because they aren't crack dealers.

Anybody saying otherwise is lying.

Congrats to the winners.
