Link trade spammers piss me off but if someone asks nicely (say, via PM), then all is good.

I'm curious, why is it worse if it comes via email than a PM? If you consider it spam if sent via email, why is it not spam if sent via a PM?

Although I treat Spam the same however I get it, if I stopped to think about it, I would consider PM spam worse than email spam, because to PM me spam, someone is abusing a message board as well as spamming me. If they send me an email, they are just spamming me.

As long as it's not a form letter blasted out to a harvested list of email addresses, I don't mind. I really don't understand why people get their panties in a bunch over that kind of stuff. Just delete it if you don't want to respond.

It's not like the Jehovah's Witnesses are pounding on your door. Now that kind of gets me a little riled up.

Scroto · 2007-08-25, 11:34 PM

thanks for all the replies!

yeah I dont do the copy n paste boring crap when contacting people. I contact them how I would like to be contacted basically..

demanding x amount in return when they hit YOU up is pretty stupid haha and yep, have had a guy do that to me recently

I usually say that i can offer up to xxx amount and go from there..

there are a few good people out there who like to help and met a few today!

my site is hovering around 13k and its hard to get over that hump and get to the next level

If you want to send me into a blind fury and guarantee that our site will never trade. ICQ me this:

"Do you want to trade"

And that's it.... omfg..... could you be anymore vague? Include your site url, how much you're doing with your top trade, and which site of mine you want to trade with. The last thing I want to do with my time is play 20 questions with a potential trade to figure out wtf they want.

I get so much email spam that I rarely even catch trade request emails, never the less respond to them.

Having thumbnail sites the thing that irks me is when someone with a HUGE thumbnail site hits me up to trade with my little 90x120's. While I know you would be more than happy to have my traffic, your traffic is going to suck for me. And you likely know that.

The other thing that irks happens when someone wants to setup a trade between their 1500/day site and my 150k/day site. One thing that noobs don't seem to get is that trade scripts return better to the top 10 trades in a script. So try to keep with sites whose top 10 you can reach or you'll probably never get ahead.
