I don't really want to get into an argument into "a minor point in a minor point" in one of my posts, as it is not really relevant to what I was saying, but if you have some spare time look through a few other link lists, and you will see that not everyone is as honest as you. Although it is nice to see someone who is still naive enough to believe that all webmasters are honest, and who refuses to believe that any other link list owner would stoop to tactics like this. However for your own benefit you need to be a bit less trusting of human nature, or someone will screw you over big time one day.

Do you submit free sites? I need to know who made you so damned cynical about link list owners.

What does that even mean? Some veil will be lifted and the seedy underworld of link lists will be revealed if he surfs a few link lists?

That's just plain insulting. Don't call the man naive just because you have some twisted perception of how link lists are run. Link lists WANT to link to the free sites that are submitted. We need good content to build and maintain traffic. You never see anyone posting perfectly good rule-abiding free sites while complaining that they haven't been listed. Do you think that we have good submitters snuffed out if we can't come up with an excuse for not linking back? Your whole argument is baseless, preposterous, and completely unfair.

This isn't the first time. He would no doubt would have been taking TallyWhacker's side in the latest debacle

Wrong! You really need to quit assuming.

I'm naive? I'm really more of a cynic.

Thanks for the warning, but I've been around the barn more than a few times in my 45 years on the planet. I think I can figure out for myself who I can trust and who I can't.

Ah, the thread that refused to die

Again, Roman Maronia has zero to do with using some slang or net speak...or speaking like a real person as opposed to an ivy league college graduate. It has everything to do with not being able to string together a 'coherent' sentence.

To some extent, I undertand and even agree with Ecchi's point about speaking to the surfer at his level...but that point has nothing to do with this thread. However, tossing around accusations about reviewers intentionally rejecting sites that make sales to keep those sales for themselves is completely out of left field

Bw is dirt cheap these days, I want all the quality sites I can list. The more traffic...the merrier! I want my submitters to make sales from my traffic...LOTS of sales! I want them to be successful and keep sending me quality sites (there's that word again...Quality). The symbiosis that exists between link sites and free sites is pretty simple to understand...if one takes the time to do so. The days of link sites trying to hog all the traffic to themselves...and porn sites jerking the surfer around til he buys (perhaps this is what Ecchi is referring to?)...well, those days went the way of the Dodo some time ago.

Offer the surfer quality sites (oops, there's that word again)...push his buttons...convince him the site you're promoting will scratch that itch he's feeling...and the sales will come
