How can you repeatedly read questions & then go off on a tangent? I didn't ask for your opinion on why I reject for iFrames.

I asked you a specific question: Since you think that I should allow what I consider blind links in recip codes on free sites, which other rules that I have in place should I also allow recip codes to break?

Nothing, I'm agree with your other recip rules.

I have no room to really be posting here, But as a porn surfer i would want to know where im going. If i seen a bunch of links all saying the same thing or remotely close to the same thing, Guess what Im not going to click on it. It appears to me gg is just giving his surfers what they deserve and thats to know what there clicking on.
But then again what do i know

One of the more reasonable post in this thread...

One of my submissions got rejected by greenguy due to this reason I think.

What's frustrating to me is that a LL will explicitly state to use a particular recip so I do. They never mention adding text to it. It makes me think i'm following the rules correctly.

I found this thread from the rejection thread so I wanted to ask:

Am I expected to alter site's recip requirements if they don't have their site name in it?

If you don't feel comfortable editing the text that one Link List asks you to use, you can just remove one of the recips. This applies for most rules, since not all Link Lists have the same rules.

Greenguy was one of the guys early on that understood what the surfers wanted and put rules in place to help improve the overall quality of the sites he listed. Back in the late 90's, blind links were commonly done if not expected. You could click on a link that said, "Enter Here for Porn" and it would take you through a pop-up hell to some join page that you could not get out of.

Would you trust a site enough to whip out your credit card if they pulled major nasty tricks like that? I sure wouldn't and I would be telling everyone I know to stay the hell away from that site.

If a site insists you use their recip and their format only AND it is a blind link why would you want to submit your hard work to a site that isn't honest? The good link lists will always accept a properly formatted text link and most give you examples of what they will accept. How do I know? I submit to the same sites you do and I always use a custom text table. I have never ever been rejected for it.

If you have doubts, PM or email the LL owner and ask nicely. LOOK at what other sites on that list are doing. THINK, READ, ASK. BUT, don't ever submit a blind link to a LL that clearly states in the rules that they don't accept them. If you lack the intellect or integrity to do these simple things, this is not the business for you.
