Ok - my take on all this...

DrB does ask me questions about free sites from time to time, seeing as I run a link list & he is my friend. Every now & then he asks me a "Is this a standard practice....?" kinda question & yesterday was one of those times. I've never heard of a free site being rejected for pages on the domain that are not even linked to from the free site itself. Seems kinda strange & odd to me & I told DrB that - actually, my exact quote from ICQ was "that's really strange & not a normal practice that I've ever heard of"

It also didn't click in my head at the time that Mondo Erotica was doublep (of course, once I saw the avatar, I remembered - LOL)

I do think it is a strange rule - and this is coming from the guy that co-wrote most of the strange rules that webmasters read on a lot of link lists to this day :)

But, I am also a firm believer of "My Site, My Rules" policy & would never hold that against anyone.


Opti - you were a bit out of line - for one thing, the only mention of the word "Nazi" was by our very own Nazi, DangerDave - and I know this was in jest, along the lines of "no one should have rules tougher then mine" For another, DrB did what I would have done had I submitted & been declined for that reason, he asked a question - on a board that is set up for asking questions exactly like the one he posted.

Well said GG!!

There is no harm in double checking to see what is standard practice and what isn't, hell it made me think more in-depth about my reviewing practices and I don't see how bringing up a topic without pointing fingers is a bad thing, especially if its not slamming someone.

I hope not too far... and re-reading my posts, I dont believe I put words in Dr. B's mouth... he appeared to come out firing, ridiculing someone who had done their best to explain their personal reasons for the reject.

I wouldnt reject for that reason either... and if it was DangerDave or someone who does reject sites for "technical" breaches more than most I would of just giggled at Dr.Bs frustration and moved on... but as anyone that knows DoubleP would understand... he rarely if ever has anyone complain about being rejected from mondoerotica... and doesnt deserve to be ridiculed publicly around here with no one backing him up at all.

Anyway, it seems to have turned out better following my "input" wouldnt you say? ;-)


[2 cents more] I think DoubleP should list Dr.B's site and try and do a deal to keep him submitting.. even if i hated domains like that I would likely want to try and find a way to accomodate an old timer with as much traffic as Dr. B has ;-)

Dr B! - thanks for the mail - I will shoot you some back. And just for the record, the site you subbed was a GOOD site! I didn't want to hit the the delete button - but I had too. If it had been a webmaster I didn't know they would not have had mail from me - I know you hang here, so I figured you deserved one. What I said in the last paragraph of the email explianing things in more detail to - still stands. :)

Thanks mate - you've never steered me wrong yet! :)

Opti - I wouldn't say DrB came out firing, but I can see where one might interpret his post in that way. I also do not think anyone knew who he was talking about, since he mentioned no names or sites. So his "bitch" (for lack of a better word) wasn't so much directed at someone, but more of a "let me get this off my chest" kinda thing.

As far as putting words into his mouth, you did :(
