He was referring to the LOR rules and no, you did not read them, if you did you would not have submitted a "site" (this word is being used loosely with what you submitted) larger then 800x600

Take a few minutes and look over the thousands and thousands of free sites on LOR and compare them to what you submitted.

Well it isn't for the lack of looking.
Can you even point me to a page that even links to them?
I could only find the linking rules:
http://www.link-o-rama.com/greenguy/therules.htm
How am i to know there are more than one set of rules?

Can we tone it down a notch?
Have i offended you? By not finding a well hidden LOR rules page?
Torn, you are not helping. Constructive criticism would have been to provide a link to the allegded LOR rules page. Take a few hours and look over the millions and millions of sites on the rest of the web. 2 pages is not considered a 'site'.

I thought i started this in the newbe section. Did i screw up, or was i moved to the pro section for sport? Can we move this thread back to the newbe section?

I moved this thread to where it belongs. This is where people ask why they were not listed, whether they be new or pro.

I'd suggest you do as Torn instructed. Go back to the GG's list and compare what you have submitted to what is listed. See how others have linked to him and from where they have linked.

Any site that does not charge for entrance is free, but that doesn't make it the type site that get's listed on link lists.

Thanks UW, that is helpful.
I don't usually look at other sties for limitations, but for possabilities.

I did a survey of the 202 free site links on the Nude Babes page.
(cus that's where i'd like our site to be listed)
Yes, Most link back from the warning page,(i knew that)
7 link back from other pages,
3 have dedicated links pages (as we do, but i expected more sites to have them)
Surprisingly, 52 (1/4) don't link back at all.
Of the 8 "Recommended Free Sites" only 1 links back.

Of course we do, and will continue to, link back.
But i prefer to keep our warning page free of adult links. No adult options for the non-adults to follow.
Would it be acceptable to have a separate warning page just for link lists?
Under the assumption that the non-adults have already been turned away by the time they got to the list?
Probably not, why have a warning at all, in that case.

I was less through in checking page counts, but i only found one site with more than 4 pages.
http://www.tommys-bookmarks.com/gallery/
Brings up the questions: Is there a problem with having more than 4 pages?
Why couldn't i have our main site listed? Instead of a phony 2 page throw-away?

Again, I wish you had left me in the newbe section. I'm looking for advise from peers.
Not "help" from a competitor. (Torn)
I missed his reference to the 800pixel rule, cus he hid it behind an undeserved RTFM and insults to our site.
I thought we were within 800 pixels, but i have now re-checked.
Ok, there it is, a table on the main page that's 815 pixels.
COOL, i can fix that and re-submit.
Why cop an attitude about it?

What's his other complaint? We're different from the other sites?
GOOD!
I want us to stand out from the crowd.

Of course, the opinion that counts here is GreenGuy's.
