Be gentle, Newbie here...

Hi Kids!

For reasons that I can't remember, fathom, or will be able to justify to the little lady when she finds out, I went and registered some Adult & Gambling domain names the other night. Hence, my nick and sig....

Now I have to buck up, move on and make the best of the damage done. I've come to GreenGuy & Jim seeking absolution, understanding and guidance. Please be gentle with me.

OK, I've done a couple of mainstream sites that generate a few bucks that pay for pizza, beer, gas, and bail money each month, but I had never considered doing any Adults sites. That is until 3-4 days ago when I was looking for some "typo" domains and stumbled upon an Adult domain name that I thought was GREAT (aren't they all?!?!) and was amazed it wasn't taken.

Of course one thing led to another, "domain fever" set in and before it was all done, I was the proud parent of a dozen or so domain names in industries I know next to nothing about. My current level of knowledge about these two industries amounts to knowing how to surf for porn and knowing if I put a $20 on the craps table it wil be the last I ever see of it...

At the moment I'm a little overwhelmed with the "education" I've been getting here on GG&J and a couple of other sites and am beginning to realize that doing Adult sites is exactly the same as doing mainstream sites - only COMPLETELY different!!

So, after all this rambling, my questions to this esteemed forum are:

1) Has anyone succesfully shared a site (ie. one person provides the domain name, the other the site's content) and then split the income? (many more questions will follow if the answer to this one is yes)

2) Is it alright to post a couple of the domain names here for a little round of "Humiliate the New Guy for his Stupidity". If this is alright, should I post them here in the Newbie section or in some other section? (I SWEAR they're good names - most are short, easy to remember, effortlessly roll of your tongue, and a couple are what I'd describe as very "brandable")

Thanks in advance!
KJ
