Halfdeck, I suggest you re-listen to the radio show from last night. It was made perfectly clear that link site and TGP traffic isn't part of their business model in the slightest, and that honestly, there is a huge amount of disrespect and ill will directed toward free sites, tgps, galleries, and link sites.

We are not worthy, so why support a business model thay you are not part of? I for one hail CrazySy for seeing it straight and taking action that is in keeping with his opinions and feelings.

Alex

RawAlex, re-read my previous post. I was referring to Crazysy's mention of Furrygirl's posts on this board, not what Trixie said on last night's radio show.

Sy - no problem, it's down, at least thanks for telling us about it instead of just pulling it. I see how you couldn't really just change the ads without redoing the whole site. I also understand that sometimes people have to do what is right for them - isn't what this whole thing is supposed to be about?

Having said that, I wouldn't pull sites on a whim, like Stu said - you'll end up getting people pulling them if a sponsor craps out on them or something cuz it's easier than changing out all the links. Don't be lazy

that's all I have to say

I think it's great that he took a stand and made changes based on his personal beliefs. As you said ponygirl, he couldn't have switched that site out easily, and he was decent enough to let people know that he wanted them removed instead of just pulling them so they would come up 404's.
I've never seen Sy pull sites before, so this is no whim, he decided he had a preference on what he didn't want to be associated with and made the call accordingly.
Good for you standing up for what you think on your sites Sy!

I agree...Sy is one of my best submitters and I'm sure he gave this decision serious thought before making it. I respect a person who honors his own values. All good here Sy...the site is down

Halfdeck, you obviously don't see the connection between those two people.
