I have 5 huge pecan trees in my front yard, probably 100 years old and several hundred feet high. My parents and grandparents both have them on their property, too. Every fall when they start to fall, my grandmother spends 2 or 3 months picking them all up. She sits around and cracks and shells them while she's watching TV, and puts them in ziplock bags, a pound each.

We always laugh at her because she really doesn't need the money so it seems weird to spend that much time doing it, but she makes *thousands*. She sells them for $5-6 dollars a pound and people start calling at the end of summer to remind her to be sure and put back x amount for them. If you saw how people acted about them, you'd think she was selling gold nuggets. :1orglaugh

hehe that's awesome! I think after 60-odd years of working through tough times, it must get awfully tedious when you retire. Might as well make some money while watching Matlock! :Graucho

Because of the efforts of posters on the GFY board to defraud our webmaster referral program, combined with the poor attitudes towards webmasters using the program in the signatures, we have decided to change a couple of policies in regards to the webmaster referral program. Those changes are:

1. Effictive Immeaditly: ARS buttons will no longer be allowed in GFY post signatures. Seccondly, your participation in the ARS Webmaster Referral program will be terminated if you are using an ARS button in your signature past 6/11/04.

2. Webmasters who are not promoting ARS in any other manner except for the Webmaster Referral program will not be allowed to participate past 6/11/04. You must actively promote another ARS program in order to continue using the Webmaster Referral program.

These changes are necessary to help us better police the program and to get the intended return out of the program.

It was never created with the sig whore in mind. It was created as a means of generating additional revenue with ARS by promoting the program itself to other webmasters.

Please take the time today to insure you are in compliance with these new policies.

nice :thumbsup

please explain to me in what having an ars sig is dishonest?

are you in this biz to make $$.? or just here to waste your time ( and ours)

i had ars sigs as well as other sponsors sigs and noticed that without posting nonsense and just answering the post i'm interested in as usual , my ars sig made me enough money to pay my hosting bill when other sigs brought me zilch. i would be fucking stupid to take it off as long as its ok with ars , now once again they change the rules once the game has started wich say a lot about their ethics and the people they hired to plan their marketting strategy. i will take the sig down but it will just make a hole of not even 5% of my revenue , and i'm being generous about crediting them 5%.

also tell me more about your fastsize sig ...hmm

Well, you are dishonest because you are breaking the ARS sig rules

"**NOTE** When using the referral program in a signature, you are NOT allowed to have more than one (1) referral link in the signature."

Then why are you complaining? We made this move after the bashing we received here on GFY last weekend. There was no other reason to do it.

wyldblyss 06-08-2004 04:41 PM

Well, in light of the assholes on this board getting their way...I think it would be more than appropriate to cause the same fuss about the signatures they have. After all, aren't they whores also? They complain constantly yet they have their signarture with their refrerral code in it.

I personally thought the vast majority contributed to this board and I rarely saw just a smiley or anything else. They took the time to form sentences and paragraphs when a ton of others could only give the GFY finger.

I think it is a shame that ARS bowed down to the childish antics and "gang up" mentallity sported on this board. For those of you that did, you digust me. They had JUST as much right to support the program of their choice than you do. Whether they got paid by impression, referral codes or "whored by the month".
