i need to read the board rules: wheres the link

[shaustin]

Rules are the bottom of the page. Please read on links. You've been here 5 mins and promoting a site everywhere.
Your linking back to Grooby sites from your site is another reason why you wouldn't be allowed to link. Why would we send surfers from here to your site, to then join our (or another site) when we could do the same directly from here and not lose the money.
Thanks

Just out of my own curiosity and general ignorance of how webpages and links work, does the other site get a commission or something if someone joins from that site's particular link? If not I'm not understanding how any money is being lost. I was always under the assumption that links on most site's are just recommendations and not anything really business related.

Sites tend to run affiliate programs, whereby a webmaster can become an affiliate of a site and promote that site with an affiliate code. When someone joins said site by following the affiliate's link, the affiliate makes a percentage of the sale. If there is no code passed in the URL string, then there's no percentage paid to the referring site since that site is not identified as an affiliate. The underlying theory is that this form of marketing extends the promotional reach of any given site, since the affiliate may well reach potential members who would not otherwise be aware of the site.

This site is starting to go to shit. I wonder why?

someone starts a thread with this sentiment regularly, yet sight traffic increases every year.

Honestly I feel like it's gotten tons better. There's still some drama but not nearly at the levels 6 months or so ago. It was so toxic back then I shied away and I wasn't ever a part of any of the drama.

why is it you feel that way when?

to the OP, you've been considered to spam because of the fact that you post a new thread like every 5 mins, which isn't because of you trying to generate conversation but rather to bring attention to you and your site to generate income for yourself.

there are a lot of people who post here for business related manners. but there's a way to do it without seeming like you're stepping on everyone's toes.

its like when i used to be a manager at a boutique and would have independent hustlers come into my store and try to sell myself, my staff and my clients shit off the back of a truck. i was very quick to tell them to get lost and catch a clue.

U know a lot of sites have tons of rules even mentioning competing sites nevermind linking to your own affiliate page...the site doesn't ask for donations of sorts but just asks to abide by the rules.....it costs a lot of money to run a site this big with all the picture content with the constant need to upgrade the servers...a lot of people just take this site for granted

I think this forum has gotten better! They are monitoring it very well! I think people are mad cuz the lashing out and drama isnt as bad!

[Prospero]

I suggest you ask the administrator or owner by PM in response to their message what you have done wrong - and then don't do it again.
