Have we finally reached maturity?

quick answer? yes.

something has to happen, the mass amount of adult webmasters in the last few years has been ruining the industry, and at some point it gets so saturated that something has to be done. this is the first step, i really hate logging into partner accounts for linklist, BUT i understand, and i would rather have to login to submit then have 10 times as much competition to get listed. the industry will be fixing itself over 2005 i think, slowly the crappy cookie cutter paysites are going away and being replaced by better converting and higher quality sites, the partner accounts can only help things in my opinion.

Things get so bad at some point with conversions and getting listed that a huge number of people just give up and get a "real" job, that is the first step for it to get better for all of the other people, willing to just hold on to what they have and wait for things to get better.
