I like choice rather than force, too. But, sometimes you need to nudge the surfer along to where you want them to go.
No, I have not run a link list or TGP that accepts submissions. I don't want to deal with the fucktards like you have to do. There are too many schemers, scammers and cheaters out there to waste my time with them. I don't like the traffic trading scripts because of that, too. The cheating and dishonesty is the worst part of this business. I only trade hard links with people I know.
I know all the LL & TGP owners work hard to develop their brand and some have become very successful. They can make their rules and do whatever they want with their business.
But there is a conflict between owners and submitters because of the cheaters. Consoles and FPA's are tools that make money but are not allowed. Another one is putting pics on html pages. Link-o-rama does allow that. Some don't. I do like the link-o-rama rule that the content should be in order. That makes sense.
One of the rules at some places that I don't understand is only allowing the sponsor's domain name on mouseovers. Why not allow a few keywords to be thrown in there? It would help with some of the SE's which would get more traffic for the owner and submitter.
I stand by my statement that owners are not interested in submitters making money because they will always have someone else ready with a submission. Unless you know someone why would you care?
