I know you don't like autosubmitters...

[RawAlex]

I have a bot that does some of the total grunt work for me. I added it when I got tired of getting every virus, worm, and crappy piece of spyware tossed at my system. I won't tell you what or how it does what it does, but it improved my acceptance rate by about half right off the bat. However, that doesn't negate the requirement to check (and re-check) each and every remaining submission by hand.

Most common mistakes? Hmmm... It's a close one for me between doorway pages and hidden enters / misleading enters / enter links too small / use of the word enter in marketing text for other sites / enter link goes to sponsor.

After that: too much advertising / too may lines of text linked / unable to locate gallery links inside site.

Finally, crappy content / undersize pics oversize pics / pics I see too often before / pics from sponsors I don't list / crappy wallpaper

There are other things, but this is the major stuff on review. The bot takes care of things like scripts, frames, and other misc bullshit.
