wow, I didnt realize so much could be said about blind links. :p
I think there's a balance between enforcing quality standards and also being able to take a step back from decline mode and realizing this stuff isn't all that important in the end.
The focus of link lists is to get good search engine traffic and pass it on to your sponsors and the freesites which are submitted to you. By being too strict you're taking the fun out of this business and being over analytical. If somebody submits top notch quality content and stuff I know my surfers want to see, but he's using a questionable method of linking to his sponsor, I dont penalize both the submitter and my surfers by not listing the site. I let it slide. If some retard is constantly submitting the same crap content and is purposely making an attempt at deceiving surfers into clicking on shitty links, then I dont list it. It's as simple as that.
The day I break down "what is a blind link" into a science, is the day I'll leave porn and get into accounting or some shit.
Just my opinion, not meant to offend any posters here, meant to show a different perspective.
