However, many people FOR Slick and AGAINST DirectNic said there were CP links.

Slick might be making a lot of money doing what he's done. As Shania said "That don't impress me much.". The guy make mistake, after mistake, after mistake. If it runs him out of business, I have no pity for him.

I canceled all of my domains with "teen" in them at least 2 years ago. I removed all the content on my freesites when the 2257 issue was rearing its ugly head. It's possible to make money in this biz without even getting NEAR the edge of the envelope, let alone be over the edge and not even know it - where it seems Slick was.

That's great for you, but there are a lot of people who still promote the teen category in a LEGITIMATE way. Would those people not want to know who was doing things wrong and make sure they were blacklisted or they stopped doing business with them? I want to know because it might affect my business, and for no other reason at this point. You guys crucified him for his affiliations saying he should have "checked them" well I like to do the same kind of research, but I prefer to go on what is really there instead of heresay, that's all.

Well, apparently what was there was pretty bad. Per Slick's own post "Then it comes up here and half the board does have a problem with what's on there.".

The Dutch government even blocked access to some of his trades.

Bottom line, IMO, dude didn't check his trades and he was trading with some not-so-nice people who didn't think "teen" meant "over 18".

I fail to see how his trades are suddenly the issue. I thought he got shut down for questionable content on HIS site? How come HIS sites were pulled and not the trades then? I'm confused?

I thought you guys said those thumbnails on his site were delivered to him by his trades?

No, the thumnails on his site are dealt with by him.. The "redirects" are the trades, it's part of the skim that's built into tgp trade scripts to promote growth. He's responsible for the thumbs on his sites only, he would have no control over what is on the sites that he trades traffic with.

Peaches, have you ever surfed a TGP?

I still say the question here is not the content. That is a total red herring. The issue is how to deal with it. Why are we even discussing the content. If DirectNic had a problem with that, then move the guy out and report him. Easy. However a company run by pornographers has little ethical ground to stand on when it comes to selling teen porn. They would have been the first to scream had they been put out of business for pitching teen girls.

How old do some of these girls look to you?

Exactly! In this particular case we're dealing with teen content, next time it might be gagging blow jobs, or extreme insertions, or whatever else someone decides is "questionable". Do you want your registrar to act as judge and jury? I know I don't, and all the DirectNic customers that are, or will be, moving their sites to other registrars in the next week or so agree with me.
