Are surfers really reading the rules?

If it's a new list, I'll stick the site in with 11-19 others. If I get a message saying it's a problem (which hasen't happened yet) then I'll make a note, and either stop submitting to them or drop them in with a smaller number of other recips.

why waiting for a message if the rules say dont burry my links between 20 linkbacks, means to me you are not reading the rules either? my notice is that most dont like the 20 linkbacks deal, yeah i was and sometimes am a free site submitter too btw thats how i started this bizz as a free site submitter, the 20 or more linbacks sites is a thing i see alot lately, and making your own text linkbacks i dont mind, but what if the rules say, "only 16 linkbacks" or "dont burry my link between 20 others", my point dont push it , read the rules and keep checking the rules, because not all wont email back if your sites gets declined for what reason, if you dont ask you wont know

You're right. If I don't get a message, I should ask. I'd just hate to bug someone who's yet to list a site of mine only because they have a long back log.

ever think of the fact that some linksites do that on purpose a backlog for some days? i work for 3 linksite owners who want me to keep a backlog, reason...to grab the ones who change their sites, also a reason i dont tell on the board how many days that backlog is......you know cheaters dont read rules, but they sure read webmaster boards btw the longest backlog i ever seen was from fetish bank, it took them about more then 2 years to list my sites, and i knew my sites where by the their rules, so i didnt needed to ask, and yep when i dont get accepted i will ask on this board

As a submiter I read the rules evry time I add a new LL to my recip tabels; I think that it's imposible to read the rules every time you submit, thats way I realy like LL that post date of the last rules or recip change! It's not enough to put "new rules" or "recips has changed"
