Old school time warp

I made very good money between '98 and around '04 doing a few things that are frowned upon now, using blind text links, opening images onto html pages where clicking on the image again sent you to a paysite, pic posts, free sites with no real defined structure and no maximum or minimum content requirements, TGP galleries with a big assed "More" link to a porn site at the bottom, that sort of thing. Nowadays I 'd add i-frames, javascript and flash to the list.
Innocent things that don't coddle the surfer, but won't piss him off too much either.
I've never used pop-ups, disabled back buttons, FPA's before the content, or linked to cj's or top lists with words likely to bring on the heat, nobody needs that crap and it's bad for biz. So that shit would still be against the rules.
So I've got two questions;
1. Would anyone build old school sites like that nowadays if some LL's or TGP's would accept them?
2. Would anyone with a LL or TGP accept sites like that?

I can answer my own question # 2 by saying that I would accept sites like that from partners, but only if other LL's or TGP's or Pic Posts, or whatever will also accept them.
Times are tough in this biz, and I'm thinking a little less self-regulation could equal a few more sales without hurting anyone.
As a bit of an example http://www.lipsdick.com/cowgirl/ likely wouldn't get listed anywhere, but it won't piss off the surfer, and with a reasonable amount of traffic it will make sales.
Any thoughts?
