Hi All,

I recently started to clean up my CS database. I wanted to filter out sites who dont make me any traffic to make my submission quicker.
AND ALSO to generate my good partners recips with recips who lead to good tgps, not very tiny ones, who even don't post my submitted stuff.

My method is I check tgps/mgps one by one , open them, search for my galleries, etc. Yes, its incredible slow...

Other method is I open one of bigger sponsors, take a look at last full month stats, and the ones from bottom [1 unq click , etc...] I check one by one.

I have had some very bad surprises, like this one:
http://www.firsttimefans.com/cgi-bin/agp/submit.cgi
http://www.firsttimefans.com/
It has a submit page, but this is a paysite!!!

WTF???

I think half of the sites in Chameleon db just want people to generate their recips and get some traffic this nasty dirty way. I think this is heavily unfair... but what can a simple submitter do? Who will spend a month with cleaning the db swiping the sh*t out of it?

I love guys who run Chameleon, I also wrote to them about this.. They have a rule page for all new webmasters who want their site to be in CS. In that they say they check traffic from TGPs and if at least 50% of galleries are from submitters, but I am sure hundreds of wms are cheating on this...

I even had partners who do not list my galleries at all.

In the end i will submit to just 10% of the db, but will get the same traffic.. And it will take half the time to finish a submission then before... This is how to save time, so its some kind of time investment.
