Aside from the abuse that you have displayed through the use of that fine service and others, we love them all. I use several of these services myself. I use them for several sponsors that I like to keep an eye on. I also use them to see if anyone is talking about myself or my friend, Greenguy.
I also understand that a person would have to be a fool to not use these services if they were in the business to sell Adult Webmaster related products.
But, like Greenguy and I have said...it has to stay on topic. This thread for instance...
http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...&threadid=5414
troy was looking for specific content. You came along spamming for something that had nothing to do with that content.
The problem, as Greenguy has said, is boardtracker and other services are great tools. But, if you fail to read the thread before you promote your service, you are doing the original poster, the resource site you are spamming and even yourself a disservice.
I have done my share of promotions. All of it for sponsor type programs but have never posted off topic to promote said service. And, if I do say so myself, I have done very well for the people I have done it for. For instance, for the 8 months I worked for Flashcash, they had an increase of 5000 webmasters. That increase was both because of my ideas, promotions and the Rhino's above reproach reputations. When I worked for CE, they had a very large increase in both webmasters and sales. I would give numbers but, that is proprietary information. When I started running Ultracash, my "scumbag" partner went from having $50k in the bank to several $million within the year he went on vacation. And, if someday I decide to either work for another sponsor or start a program myself, I am quite sure I will generate a lot of extra money for either an employer or myself.
All I am really saying is...in marketing, there is a right way to do it and a wrong way to do it. Your way is the text book example of the wrong way to do it. Most times you only piss people off and while they may have signed up before your post, they don't because of it.
And please, don't take this the wrong way. This is not a scolding but only a tip for anyone trying to market a program and/or a product.
