Before you do to me what you've done to my friends, Lemmy and Sheepguy - I'm not claiming to have any traffic. There, now you don't have to insult my abilities or my lists.
Usually I just ignore those that "attack" me first but as I said, my patience level for that today is very low... You've called me "names" in the past.. Thanks for not jumping on the bandwagon... yet...

I would think it's very clear what I'm trying to communicate.. Captcha, partner signups.. None of that is going to stop what you're trying to stop.. In fact, it tends to make it worse as you end up getting less "real" people sending you submissions.. So your % of crap to good goes up... Also, if you're not seeing what the cheaters are submitting, then it makes it harder to actually catch them... The phrase about keeping your enemies closer does actually apply here as well.

In the other thread I gave a list of some solutions to the problems of cheaters and auto-submitters.. In this thread I've said clearly that all those solutions should be part of the software you use and that if the LL owners actually discussed this and realized that the tools they're using are inadequate, they could get the software companies to build better tools for them... Keep in mind that I know that not ALL of the LLs have crap tools... The top few LLs are going to have some good tools.. but it's all the other LL owners I'm atempting but clearly failing at reaching.

You know... why the fuck do I even care... Truth is.. the more failures there are out there the more money I (and the big LLS owners) can make.. and I should have known better than try and have this sort of discussion on this board... I'm going to respond to Lemmy again and then go eat something and relax..
