How important is ".com" when building a tgp?

[BJ9]

I have an idea and name for a new tgp that I like but the .com name for it is taken, as well as the .net and .org.

I don't know of any successful tgp's that aren't .com.

actually the name really doesn't matter,,,
aslong you can bring traffic to it it will be fine

Just as an example, let's say you open worldsex.net and get to be popular with the surfers. I think you would find (apart from any possible legal repercussions) most of your type-in visitors would end up at worldsex.com.

People don't pay much attention and the majority will assume a dot-com ending and no hyphens. For bookmarks and your own or traded traffic there obviously shouldn't be any difference.

I'd say it is fairly important to have a good domain for a TGP, return visitors is where you make the money.
