What prompted me to write this thread was a site Pat posted in another thread.

http://www.tijuanawomen.com/ll/Charl...Mexican-Whore/

He was asking if it would be accepted with the email collection box..

I took one look at it and thought.. Wow, that's a very good way to get 100% advdertising in a surfers face as they hit a warning and avoid them being bombarded with 20 or 30 possible choices of linked text and buttons taking them away from the site.

but look down the page.... it becomes like a fight for attention, the newbie surfer cant even know where he is supposed to click or what the webmaster wabts him to do from there... because of the sea of useless recip links... if a surfer found the site via an SE we dont want to drag them into a linklist!! That doesnt help us... webmaster conversions help us more than "stealing" a few of the freesite builders SE clicks...

I used that site as an example as it includes all the regualrs and all of the recips are "reasonable" on their own, although Emerald and Surfn probably push my personal limits. (sorry guys, nothing personal.. for point of discussion.. you guys are not an example of bad in any way)
