Submitter domain now an attack site

Now that conversions have turned to shit, the submitters have no good reason stick around.

I think for this day and age, and for the fairly small traffic we get back, its just not worth jumping through the hoops anymore. I had a go at freesite submitting again for say 20 or so freesites, and doing a check of the rules, virtually nothing has changed. I did notice it was a little easier to get a freesite approved by many LL's, but still had those who were just nitpicky (I was 2 pixels under the pixel count for one .. seriously .. not approving it was just a prickish move).

Rules for the sake of rules will always come back to bite you, and judging by submits on most ll's submitters have largely gone to other things. I can see the value of ll submitting, but the whole ll model needs to reinvent itself first. That being said I think I will still submit from time to time just for the SE benefit
