The simple solution is not for me to adjust but to find LL and WM who use an element of comman sense when reviewing (Im not sayin you guys dont) as its comman sense that really seems to be lacking on the internet.

First point - if you list everything thats submitted - I really cant wait to the time (if you get there) when your submit bin has 400 new sites every day - and then 2000 every day. There has to be a give and take to who gets listed and who doesnt - and thats "EACH" LL owners decision - not a group effort or common group of LL owners - and never will be because we are not an association or corporation together. I have very specific rules based on something that happened 4 or 5 years ago to me - Greenie has some rules in his list because of his experiences in 1998 - Every one of the LL owners has a different experience they bring to the biz - and base their own rules on that experience. A very good example - I dont allow people to submit from certain IPs and Hosts - I made that decision on percentages of cheating - wheras some other LL owners will list those same sites and allow them to cheat their surfers - its just a matter of opinion.
As far as the second point of using common sense - that has no place in a place of business - decisions should never be based on common sense - they should be based on facts if you want to succeed - if I make decisions based on common sense I would have to give up all of the things my company has afforded me, and I really like my "stuff"
Last point - and really just a piece of advice from one LL owner to another - when given suggestions from people that have been extremely sucessful at running LLs to the point of making an income that you probably wouldn't believe - I would listen to every word and take those suggestions and run with them. I've seen hundreds of LL owners, Free site submitters and TGP owners and submitters come and go like butterflies - and the only ones that stayed around and are still here - are the ones that not only took the advice given as fact, thanked that person and implemented them immediately in their own biz practices. Life is way too short to try to change others practices when that energy could be spent taking those lessons learned and following them to a tee - and make your own fortune
