What do you mean by 'notice'?

You could easily redirect unfriendly referrers to whatever page you want within your .htaccess. My fear would be that the unfriendly sites would black list you (eventhough they stole the link) and that they may possibly share the same black list as a friendly site. That would really suck balls. But I've certainly heard of people doing this sort of redirection for that exact reason.

.htaccess redirect them or block them completely. I use a general rule that the tgp has to at least be English. I would love to not care about the bandwidth and just let everyone just add my url, but I honestly can't afford a place like gold.jp-sex.com (A japanese tgp) to pick my pages up. 1 day of them and I had 70,000 page views...on top of my normal 100k. Impressive to say the least, but completely worthless traffic to me and I just couldn't afford to be nice

So, basic rule, if the tgp is written in English don't htaccess block them.
