Have you joined the FSC? If not, why not?

FSC has priced themselves out of the market, and more importantly, they have yet to establish a real track record for doing the things that webmasters truly need.

They talk a good game, but I am not 100% comfortable with how things have turned in the last couple of years. The wholesale changes made within the organization seemed most oriented towards getting marketshare and little to do with actually getting to the end of things.

Further, I am not comfortable with a "webmaster organization" that will look to get an injunction against the new 257, but restrict that injunction to it's own members only. If they were working for the webmaster community as a whole, they would ask for an injunction for "all adult industry workers and corporations". Instead, they are using it as some soft of leverage to increase memberships.

I am not comfortable. When I am not comfortable, I am not spending.
