Yes, of course. I'm rather surprised that anyone accepted a free site on a subdomain since there has been a fair amount of discussion on that very topic. Also, there are many rules that are known in the community, yet not in writing at most link lists. Hell, my own written rules are very brief. Not my fault if the submitter is not experienced enough to know the rest.

Search>"subdomain">Link Lists & Getting Listed

Excluding this one there are only 3 threads between my join date (12-17-2006) and now.

It's you writing one line of text vs me reading ~1000s of posts and accidentally finding this info !
HOW FAIR !

And I could go on, but it's not my responsibility to educate you. (Try expanding your search to 'Newbies' and there have been plenty of mentions of subdomains being declined within the individual link lists' rejection threads.)

Do you intend on creating a new thread for every free site which gets declined, and then argue with those who are trying to help you, or do you intend on learning from your mistakes? Again, it's your duty to learn about the business - it's not ours to teach you. I don't want to sound callous, but there are tons of new people constantly entering this business. We don't have time to spoon feed each individual.

You missed my wink ! Smile and be happy !

btw. What stops you (or any other LL owner) from adding "no freesites on subdomains" to your rule page ?
Why not filter out all newbies who are not aware of this secret insider rule before they even submit ?

Yup, the culprit was me

As UW has so eloquently put it, there are so many thread about subdomains, it's one of those things that pretty much considered common knowledge...which is why it's not on my rules page.

Also, that's why you got an email from me explaining why your site was declined. I recognized your nic from the board, so wanted to make sure you were aware that subdomains are a problem with most lists.

That said, of course...if you intend to keep using them, by all means remove my site from your submit list. And of course, feel free to yank the recip from the site you submitted...no problemo here

I'm too busy replying to threads like this.
