Link List Name in URLs

This goes out to you newbie free site submitters, many of whom I've to come to assume have entered free site building due to some piece of shit auto-submitting software making the submission process a goddamn mindless breeze.

DON'T USE A LIST'S NAME IN THE FUCKING URL.

(Can you tell that I'm already burned out on dealing with the most recent school of waterheads who have decided to take the plunge into this end of the pool?)

This is a proper free site URL:
http://www.domain.com/free-site-title/index.html

This is NOT:
http://www.domain.com/free-site-title/link-list-name/

Why on bloody Earth would think it's a good idea to use the name of a link list, which you intend on submitting to, in your URL? Why, goddamn you?

And when contacted by the owner of that list, don't lie and act like you were unaware that that word in your URL is indeed a link list's name/domain WHEN YOU FUCKING SUBMITTED TO THAT FUCKING LINK LIST!

This douche is today's example:

His FIRST reply: (I bolded for effect)
Quote:
Good morning.

I had no idea that there was already a site owned by you
with that name. I made the name up on-the-spot. Unfortunately,
I can't take the site down since I would get banned by other link lists
due to 404 errors.

All I can say is that I will promise to never make any other
link list sites with that name. I think the site name is generic
enough that it's possible to have a clash of names. I've even
seen link list entries on other websites with the same exact name
.

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.
I had no intention of causing any harm.
His SECOND reply, though I hadn't replied to his first. Go figure:
Quote:
It really was an honest mistake.

I made up that name on-the-spot. And I think it's
a generic enough name that there are probably many link list
sites with that same name.

I will try to contact as many link list sites as possible and
ask them to take the link down. I can't guarantee that they will
all take the link down, but I will at least tell them to. I will
take care of it this evening.

For future reference, can you tell me the name of all your sites?
I will put it on a list of names that I can't use.

Thanks.
I wonder if he made up these others "on-the-spot" as well.

http://www.fetishpages.info/sites/ffp/ffp1/link4all/
http://www.fetishpages.info/sites/ff...orncollection/

Of course, it's $2 .info domain that I never would have listed anyway. |shocking| What really pisses me off is the fact that I finally found another guy who could speak and write coherent English and I was forced to blacklist him. I hate this business.
