I'm sorry I misunderstood the examples at first I thought you were sending people there.

However here's my take on it and maybe others feel the same way. Through the years we have seen a lot of things happen that would make us leary of sites like this ... let me explain a few.

Porngraph.com ... how many got fucked here?

foxcounter.com ... remember those redirects?

sexcounter.com ... spyware anybody?

When you start sending to many hits to a ppc company and those hits don't pan out they do crazy things to make the hits profitable. Why do you think so many freehosts go out of business?

So we go ahead and change all our links now and 2 - 3 months from now the market is oversaturated and every cheater in the world is scamming all these links and raping the company for money. In turn that company will end up doing something drastic to both get back at the cheaters and make the money back.

I am in no way implying this will happen here but for many including myself this is why we are not running out changing links and sending hits. At least we know it's safe to turn the traffic that would be nothing to us anyways back to google and yahoo and give the surfers a good surfing expierience and hope they remember our site didn't jerk them around so they return and buy someday.

Long winded answer I know but thats my feelings and I know others feel the same way.
