According to Who?




You see - You guys just Can't Stay Away.

By now LinkSpun is up to it's neck in Bloody Nubs!!!. 1 page thumbloggers and sensualwriters - The kind that will NEVER pay. I honestly AM disappointed that the paid vote at LS did not go well. But in that you see that all the lyoalty that appears in forums hits a brick wall when it comes to paying.

Next you have said that its all supported by advertising - wich TBN Never wanted to expose it's users( lot of complaints about other places at the time that were full of obnoxious ADs in their face ). Eventually we did allow advertising. We went to paid niche advertising slots and minimal banners ( NO FLASH allowed and minimal gif movement Required ). Step by step linkspun has followed TBNs Exact busines model/path starting with the exact copying of the link list page and function.

With a fine reputation at the time I had no problem scoring $200-$500 banners with anyone currently in the game. AWE Topped it off at $1200 for the prime slot. But, after a while the followups became more tiresome than they were worth - and making $$ in mainstream for 10 years (5 at the time) was much more appealing then spending 1/2 a day on ICQ. Alicia is actually who woke me up about it - she was like Why the fuck are we doing this??? And when I had no answer the path was clear.


So for us it was back to the user (why chase the money when it's already coming to you). At first only few Noble People Like Relentless would pay or even donate. I do believe Relentless was the 1st paid member. Relentless has an Extensive reputation and a lot of followers. He knows everyone in the Biz and They Know Him. He's highly intellegent and subsequently will make intellegent posts with minimal if any shit talking. This is Why He was Chosen for the conflict in this thread. LOOK At the Reactions after he posts!!!!! ROFL!!!

Say and belive whatever you want
