Spicy Contest with Pork and Meat
 

Is it a content, or is it spam? Well, probably both... but here goes. ;)

My most recent promotion is just about over... It is Friday here now, and will be in the US soon, so basically this is the last day of my 20% off content thing. (Now with 20% off new lower prices.) As such, I felt I should try a new promotion...

It seemed obvious what to choose. A few people already have Blood Money in their signature files, without me even asking. Very kind of them to do so, I have to say. So, why not reward people who want to do the same?

So, here's how it works. Put the Blood Money banner
http://www.gothicamateur.com/blood-m...lood-money.gif in your sig with a nice and creative bit of text, and you get stuff. Everyone who posts in this thread, whose sig has the banner in it next Friday, and who I see using that sig during the next week, gets the following...

1.) 25% off any content order at Photos by Ian X. made in August.
and
2.) An additional 5% partnership bonus (total 55%) on their Blood Money account forever.

Plus, of course, you get a 10% webmaster referral bonus for every webmaster you refer to Blood Money, if you use your referral code in your sig. That ain't bad, especially if you refer someone who does good business with us.

But, don't worry, there is more... Something a little bigger. I will put all the names in a hat, and at the end of the week, I will have a little drawing. Winner gets two photo sets (with photo credit stamp, no URL) for $1 (hey, it makes the license work, okay?), or $200 off any order over $500.

Remember, to play, you have to post in this thread with your sig, and I have to see it here on Friday as well as during the week. It helps to join Blood Money, but you don't have to.

(Oh... and if you design your own serious banner for Blood Money, that counts too, as long as I get to use the banner. ;) )

Yes, it's a little spammy, but it's all in good fun, and it isn't a bad deal for people who decide to participate. Let the good times roll...

is spam immoral?

spam and a poll.

Brilliant.

As well as being a webmaster, I am also psychic.

I see in the future people ridiculing you in this post.

Ooh, now you're using your noodle!:thumbsup

Real spam, yes. There are grey areas. ;)

I think of everything, I know. No need to applaud. :Graucho


(In all seriousness.. I actually decided to make it a poll because I am doing this in good fun, and wanted to know if I was pissing people off more than I was entertaining them.)

Anyone who uses this can feel free to use my sig to get a referal code:thumbsup

I was about to point out that you're the first entry... but I realized you don't yet qualify without some clever text... ;)

what no Ginsu Knives?

you suck

Nice burn! How's this?

Sorry. No knives. I felt it would be politically incorrect.

Sincerely,
Ian "satire of himself" X.

PS. Ratboy, your sig text makes no sense to me... But it's "creative" in its incomprehensibility, so you qualify.

I am stepping out and sticking up for the boss on this one. Anyone promoting his sites are going to make BANK. If they aren't, they are probably placing the ad somewhere wierd.

His sites are TOP NOTCH and HIGH QUALITY. His members RETAIN. I generally don't like Gothic stuff, but he makes some hot ass goth chicks look fucking NICE.

His content he sells is on a limited availability as well, only a few get to buy, so it's not overused.

Heh. I love Ratboy, really I do... But I should probably clarify that I don't employ him or anything, he's just going nuts over my program. ;) In fact, I barely employ *me*, let alone anyone else. ;)

Still, thanks for stepping up and all that.

How 'bout this?

I like it. Though I think Archer just said he liked the site, not that he wanted to have sex with the girls. ;)

ginsu knives were knives sold on T.V
they were the originators of the type of sales pitch that Ian gave

its a joke that went over your head

Close enough for me! LOL. You don't talk to many salesmen, do you? (I am not really claiming to be one, I am not that sleazy).

(If it's any consolation, I got it.)

I guess me using you as an opportunity to promote Gothweb went over YOURS. Jeez!

Sorry missed that post. I figure if I misrepresent you badly enough I could get in serious trouble, so ya you ARE the boss in those respects.

I figure I hang out at this board and others before it so fucking much I might as well make some cash at it at the same time. What the hell you know? It's fun. Also I really DO think this is going to make a lot of cash for webmasters. Might as well cash in on it somehow before I can get my own sites up.

You are losing your moral authority. LOL.

$$$ or ethics.

Hahahaha don't tell me you are joining the dark side.

Your program looks good though. Good luck :thumbsup

I have seen contests and things like this before. I hope I didn't cross the line.

Bump:thumbsup

Ratboy... No need to bump this one. I didn't want to annoy people, and judging from the response (especially in the poll) I did exactly that. Better to let this die. In fact, I'm only posting now to apologize. Looks like I took this one too far. The contest still stands, but I won't be hyping it anymore.

:(
Oh shit ! This reminds me that I have you in my sig. but STILL didn't sign on with CCBill . Better do it NOW .:Graucho

A miracle !! CCBill worked !!
Signed on via Ratboy.:)

Mijoon,

The pic in you sig appears to be broken. Other than that, looks good. Love the text that goes with it.

Ian

What the fuck? Why didn't you ICQ me about this?

My @#$#@!!%^ server went down !! So Choker opens a thread giving away free traffic to the first 50 that post their URL and I'm $#$%^@ !
As soon as he reached the 50 mark my server came back on line .
:feels-hot :mad: :feels-hot

u are so fast ;)

Contest-thingy is over. Mijoon and RATBOY are the only entries. You both get the participation prize, guess I can flip a coin to see who gets the main prize. Who wants heads, who wants tails? ;)

RJ -- Sorry I didn't contact you, I figured you would see the contest. My bad. I will give you the participation bonus: +5% on Blood Money, 25% off content this month. Hope that makes it up to you.
