The thread you originally quoted and then edited out:
http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...highlight=mail
has nothing to do with anything.

I asked, "do they send mail", got my answer and then commented on people who let you run their recips and don't have the courtesy to say they don't want to run your page.

"Got tired of" is a bullshit answer. "Got tired of .. clicking the box"?

Right.

Besides, I find that one site didn't even review 5 out of 6? Why would I grovel to them and ask why in some thread about their LL. It makes more sense to just forget them and move on. It's evident they aren't opposed to me running their link and then not even bothering to load my page one time.

There is another thread of LL owners vs. Submitters about not sending mails. I thought it was the one I first posted but it wasn't.

And there's really no need to take such a hostile attitude.

Reason #1 for not sending out mails anymore is some submitters start flooding you with "hatemail", calling you names, giving stupid remarks on how they do all the work and all you have to do is push a button and blablabla...

At first every LL owner sends out rejection mails but the more they send out the more replies they get from submitters who just can't seem to understand how it all works, so after a while it's bye bye rejection mail.

Don't forget the standard reply #1:
"Everyone else of the big guys has listed my site" - yet when you check it, none have listed it.

I still send replies though and will continue to do it. I think it's a good way to get more personal with submitters and if there's just minor mistakes, I say it in the mail and accept the site.

Well I just started and none of the big sites have listed me, so LOL.

Exactly. Or tell me "Your site sucks raw ass and I'll never list that shit now go away fucking retard". I can deal with that.

I had a site reject me last week .. for not capping 2 letters, lol, but that's her rule. She told me I was rejected, so I fixed it up and re-submitted

You're right, except for the fact that I'm no newbie and have a tendency to call it like I see it.

I actually make a nice amount of daily sponsor sales, (I'm not even talking my other biz stuff) and I know my work is good. I get into the freesite game just lightly and these are my observations.

It makes you feel like you're (I'm) working hard just to run a recip for someone who doesn't even have the courtesy to say "hey, in my opinion your work sucks". Right ?

Reason #1, I have to call bullshit on that.

Simple courtesy, "your site wasn't listed because either I just didn't like it or you need to read the rules" from noreply@somelinklist.com would suffice.

Instead of the clear message, "I don't want to tell you and I'm supposing that you'll run my recip forever".

I guess I could just be wrong and know nothing and got to where I am by blind luck.

Probably not.

I can definitely see how it is true.

I get far from the amount of submits they get and I still have the daily thesaurus jockey email me after declining their site that wasn't even a free site, but was yet listed at ALL the big guys.
