If you're planning on using it for hosting galleries or free sites to submit you'd be wasting your time. Most of us won't list those oddball TLDs

some of these top TLDs cost more than the .com , for example the .me domain cost about $19 per annum.

I am sure the more obvious choices like fuck.me and date.me were snapped up quickly.

.us is the ccTLD for the United States. If you got a submission from someone using a .co.uk or .ca, would you reject it? If not, then why would you reject the .us submission?

If the FS or galleries are well-built, what difference does it make what TLDs your LL links to?

The policy behind rejecting most non-.com submissions is based on the fact that many webmasters intentionally purchase the .net, .info or .whatever of an established site in an attempt to leach SE traffic.

I agree with the justification for non-.com sites that try to steal traffic from an established .com site with non-generic keywords. The same criteria should also apply to .com domains which include trademarks that belong to others.

However, I don't think such a policy should apply to sites using truly generic terms like Slut.tld or Porn.tld
