Ok. I am honestly NOT trying to stir drama or piss people off.

However, ur gay.

Look, it's like this:

Exactly how many serious webmasters do you think are gonna camp on a thread desparately hoping to win 500 bucks for making a post like: "woo hoo 301 did I win?". You're sucking in bots and surfers man. Jesus.

It's an abysmally fucking ill conceived marketting strategy. Seriously.

...And it annoys people. It also burns capital that you should be sitting on if you have any sense.

It's easy.

Come the fuck on.

You wanna draw attention to your program? You wanna encourage WM signups?

You do? Cool. Here:

#1: Market, you lazy fuck. Sell the fucking sites. Thats the idea anyway isnt it? Spend some money on SEO. ET-fucking-Cetera.

#2: Give the fucking guy that makes the most sales in the week following your "ad campaign" a 5 or 10 grand bonus. Send him (or her) to Club Med. Whatever. Make a second prize, what the fuck ever. Just stop this fucking huge ass sig whore mating frenzy.

Build your campaign around who sells the best, and not who is lucky, or who has the best bots.

Suck me.
