Christ on a bike, someone picks up one line in one of my posts and you all pull it apart to this extent. As several people have questioned the same line of my last post, I'll simply quote my post, and then answer other peoples comments on it, I think it will look clearer than quoting their post with their quote of my post in it:

I am assuming from your anger that you run a link list and would not stoop to these tactics, which is good, but not everyone is as good as you.

Toby - sorry I assumed wrong, but I fail to see that assuming you run a link list is an insult.
Useless Warrior - Yes I do submit free sites to LLs (but not as many as some people) I do not only submit to the big sites but to about 100 minor ones as well. And I would say that about 5%-10% use questionable tactics to get the surfers to click on their sponsors rather than those on sites listed.

but if you have some spare time look through a few other link lists, and you will see that not everyone is as honest as you.
|
Useless Warrior - It means that if you look at a reasonably large quantity of LL rules you will see plenty of rules that confirm what I say (and if you try posting, you will find a few more).

Although it is nice to see someone who is ...... over big time one day.

Useless Warrior - Basically I am saying he is a nice guy, and you think that is an insult ???????????
Toby - You think it is cynical to trust everyone? It is a nice policy, but yes, it will cause you problems some day.
IN GENERAL
For starters I have no idea why everyone is on my case over one line in a post that did not mean anything, and was not really the point I was making.
Secondly I am somewhat surprised that so many people think that all LL webmasters are good guys, sure most are, but not all are. Hell, go through the archives of most boards and you will find plenty of threads about a LL site that has screwed someone over somewhere.
Toby - OK we will never agree on this matter. I am sorry that I offended you by inferring that you were a nice guy (but confused as to why this offends you). I also apologise for assuming you were a LL owner (but again confused as to why this offends you).
Useless Warrior - At the risk of making the same mistake as I made with Toby, I am assuming you run a LL (If not sorry). If so, I was not aiming my comments at you or your site I am sure that if you run a LL it is done fairly. However, I disagree with your view that there are no crooks in this business, but as with Toby, I guess we will never agree on this point.
MrYum - Again I am talking about a minority of LL owners, but yes a few do at least arrange the rules so that they do not get too many sites that are good at making sales. That is not left field, that I am afraid is the way some people act, they did not all go "the way of the Dodo some time ago". What you say about offering surfers quality sites is the way to make money is true, and I think it is the way the regular members of this board run their sites, but I am afraid there are plenty of people who are neither that honest, nor intelligent enough to realise this.
Surfn - First off, no I would not be taking TallyWhacker's side (as Toby said to me "You really need to quit assuming"). Second off, what is it you have against me? This is the second time you jumped in from nowhere to have a pop at me and run up a few spurious comments that had nothing to do with anything. Although you are improving, last time one of your complaints against me was that I said it was raining in London !
