Another multi-submitter?

Hi everyone

I wish my first post at GGAJ was not done under these circumstances but anyway...

I can assure you that the submissions are done from 3 separate people. I work with 2 other people who submit on a daily basis also. We own the server that the domains are hosted on and have setup the domains on the same ip. ( similar to virtual hosting ). This allows us to combine our efforts and track as one entity. If you check your logs you will see that although the ip for each domain resolves the same the ip of the submitter will be different.

We are not trying to intentionally decieve or abuse any linklist just trying to make some $$$ like everyone else. All our content is licenced, legal and of pretty good quality. We don't change links or use dialers or popups, or many other methods cheaters use.

After looking at our sites side by side I can see why they look similar and we will be working on changing this. I must say in our defence though, most other sites use a standard 5-5-5 or 10-5 or 5-10 thumb layout on their gallery pages and nothing but 2 or 3 ads around the Gallery links on their main page. All our sites break it up a bit to make the surfer look around the page. We try to theme our sites also to give the surfer a different feel for the freesite.

AcidMax if we were intentionally trying to decive anyone do you think we would use similar templates and use the same domain ips. Come on ... Give us some credit. I know a lot of people intentionally abuse link lists but I can honestly say we do NOT. If you check your logs you will see everything I have said to be true.

With all that said I respect the golden rule of submitting ... THEIR SITE THEIR RULES and if anyone feels we have been / are decieving them then I appologise for this but assure you it was not intentional.

If anyone wants to discuss anything please contact me or post here.

Thank you
Jewel...
