Why is it that, after sending you 154 hits i am only getting a 2.6% return rate? Sure, the productivity may be slightly less than a quarter, but where's the point in me sending you traffic if i'm not even getting 5% back?
i agree in contacting him personally.
I have the same problem and will hit him up on icq... didnt catch him online yet the last few days, must be other timezones
Why do you complain on a board? Did you try to contact him first? Eventually, if you are not happy with his traffic, then just move on.

You wasted 10 days. I'm surpised I didn't suspend the listing since you a) you didn't send the min of 50 uniques the first day, nor the following 9, b) you had zero productivity for 5 days.
You missed a great opportunity to get the best traffic when you first got listed. Since you didn't send 50 that first day, you missed out on being on the "new sites" page, which most who do get listed get about 1000 uniques that first week just from that page.
Most trades would have deleted, and banned you by now for not sending the min of 50. I must be out of my mind to let you remain listed. Is it me or am I too nice? Then you come on here and post before coming to me. Ah yes, the drama of it all.
The ball is in your court. I leave it up to you to figure out what to do.

It was suspended initially, and then i purchased some traffic to try and get it going - which it seems to have done (although i note that the listings page now says i have only sent you 128 hits in, so who knows where the other 26 hits have gone...).
As regards what most trades would have done, i can't really comment on that as i haven't particularly taken part in trade exchange schemes with such minimums in place, but since you've been advertising your top list as the best in most threads i've participated in, i thought i'd give you a try.
What you do with my listing is of course entirely up to you - it is your site after all. Arguably, yes, i should have contacted you first - but there is another function of this thread's existance: to try and get other members of your toplist, or those with of experiences of toplists to try to explain how such a poor return on sent traffic could occur.
I'll apologise for the drama, but i won't apologise for bringing the issue up.

I don't want you to apologize, BUT you asked me to "step inside", so no, you didn't ask anyone else. AND it doesn't matter if you're an advertiser or not, the system will automatically deactivate your listing. Lucky for you, you sent at least 1 person per day.
The ball is still in your court. I don't delete listings for "drama".

Indeed i did ask you to step inside so as to answer the orginal question i posed:

By creating a public thread, i therefore also invited public opinion - else i would have contacted you directly. All i originally wanted was to know why i was getting so few hits back for what i was giving, and yes, i was rather pissy, but as your own minimum traffic level of 50 hits shows, wouldn't you be pissy if you were sending loads of hits to a site with a link exchange and getting less than 5% back?

You wanted drama and to get a reaction, but that is not what I was referring to with my reply. AND you also put "step inside", so no matter what you say, you can't convince me that you wanted public opinion. You wanted drama, end of story.
BTW, I wont answer your question here, nor will I ever offer support on someone else's board. If you want support, you know where to go.
