She's the product of marketing genious. Backstreet Boys and N'Sync are the same. Together their sales are astronomical. I've got to wonder since none of them came out and made it on their own, how much their management team get's out of the pot? This is the day of the manufactured pop star.

Therefore, I will not be doing ANY business with you in the future!

My alias is a contraction of my real name, Farrell Timlake, and I am pretty easy to find.
Usually, I would hope that your business is successful enough that when the lawyers finish taking it from you after you hit me there is an asset gained, but in this case I would not want a single dime from you profiteering on that premise, nor would I be able to give it to charity.

I will promise to send you my entire Dr. Suess collection if you tell me what your jail addy is.
Yeah I have to say asking a question about lolita domains does not eqaute to being a kper.
It is not like Monk is processing lolita websites, or doing other nasty stuff that people who are well known in this business do on a continueing basis.

Far-L,
First, before I address your points.... let me say that your insinuation that i am 'kp scum' is gonna cost you. I will make a point of attending the next convention and give you a chance to say it to my face.
Fuck that, you have already said it.... I won't give you the chance to say it again. We'll see how tough a man you are when we meet face to face.
This just shows your lack of maturity to counter my calling you an idiot with your accusations of 'kp scum'. The 2 are not to be compared. Again, you are like a kid in the playground tossing around names because you got picked on.... this time you have gone too far though... and NOTHING can help you now.
If I just wanted to make myself look good, I would not have asked for opinions. Nobody here knows anything about my business and I am quite sure nobody would have found out I had that name if I had not brought it up.
The fact is, I know it is a dicey area and that is why I asked. I already quoted dictionary.com but perhaps Nabakov is the definitive book on the subject.
Anyway, I am not going to debate facts with you because it is a fine line and I do not want to sound like I am defending kp.
Most of all, I'm sure any facts would be lost on you unless I put into Dr. Seuss-speak for you.

"I never thought of lolita as meaning under-aged"
Monk: Might I suggest that you pick up the book by Nabokov, "Lolita"? If you don't have time, and I know there is not a comic book version of it, you might want to check out the Stanley Kubrick film or Adrian Lyne's version.
I would have to declare that saying that you did not equate that name with underage material reveals an incredible lack of perception to the industry. I think you may be in danger to yourself. The only other possibility is that you are full of crap and trying not to appear like kp scum of the earth.
Nice to know that while you have been moralizing and admonishing me for my inanity that you have been pandering to the lowest common denominator of sick fucks imaginable.
What is the matter? Are you starting to worry about whether your cell mate will like your ass too much?
Mon, 25 Feb - 09:26:52 24.147.73.216 Post #: 60272
Monk,
I personally don't have any problems with use of the word "lolita" .. however, since so many webmasters do have a problem with it, I don't use it myself.

Mutt, curling is not Canadian.
It's from the Nordic Games going back a LONG time. It was before the winter olympics. Most of the traditional winter sports originated from the Nordic Games. Like crosscountry, biathlon etc.
Funny thing is that very few wanted to create the winter olympics. Including Coupertain (don't know how it's spelled) and many north european countries.
Saw a documentary on it - they had the coolest 'sports' in the Nordic Games. One of the last ones was automobile racing on ice :)

Curling ...... it's the buzz word for 2002. Alot of people in the States enjoyed it, once u watch it for awhile and know the simple rules, it's like watching bowling or golf on a Sunday afternoon, relaxing.
there's a new movie coming out, a silly comedy starring Leslie Nielson about curling called "Men With Brooms".
Curling used to be cooler, you see those push brooms they use now that look like the ones you use in your kitchen? Those only came into the game about 10 years ago. Before that it was real straw brooms and it made a really cool sound when the straw whapped against the ice.
They would actually 'sweep' just like you would with a straw broom. Now it's just pushing.

so, you're trying to evade responsibility for the most exciting game in the olympics?
Monk, I used to have a lolita domain with disclaimers all over it, 18-19 only, legal age text, etc. It still made me nervous and I let it go (maybe it's the one you have ;)) It all depends on your personal comfort level.
Does anyone have the link to the Directnic domain auction/sale site? I can't find a link anywhere on the Directnic site and I can't find the email they sent me regarding it - too many Marbles in my head ;) Thanks!

Visa will be adopting a new policy that will affect certain online vendors

attract individuals involved in the proliferation of child pornography are
the focus of this new policy.
While not all of the details are known and the official release is pending
from Visa, it has been confirmed that credit card transactions will not be

"pedo," or any other verbiage that can be associated with child pornography.
Sites, which include the use of such words within their domain name, will be
affected immediately upon Visa's activation of the policy. Sites using such
terminology to promote, market, or advertise their websites under any guise
will be targeted as well.
If you own or manage a website which will be affected by the new Visa

Monk -
It's a tight line to walk. If it were myself, I wouldn't own the domain.
I would suggest you talk to your sponsor and make sure it is OK with them to redirect that traffic. It's ultimately their decision.
I picked up a domain a couple days ago that has a fair amount of pre-existing traffic. However, the domain name has the word 'lolita' in it.
If I have an index page that clearly says at the top and bottom that all women found thru my site are age 18+, is this kosher?
Before I got into the adult biz, I never thought of lolita as meaning under-aged.
Also, when I look up the meaning at dictionary.com, it is defined as females that are past puberty but before adulthood. It also refers to the fact that these women can be between 13-19 years old and offers the words 'teen' and 'teenager' as synonyms. We all know that teen is thrown around in our biz with no real intention of indicating girls are under 18.
What do you guys think about owning such a name and sending the traffic from my warning page directly to a sponsor??
Thanks.

It's spelled Mac not MAC. I think you have spent too much time in DOS.
Photoshop,
I used it back before it was called Photoshop and was a shareware app that competed with Mac Paint. I think it became known as Photoshop in version 2. That was back before we had layers and you did effects like drop shadows using channel chops.
I remember spending almost 10k for a Mac IIfx with a whopping 16 megs of RAM and 160 meg hard drive.
