And spam mails?

Shooting_Manic · 03-03-2005, 09:37 AM

They sure click through them though.

I pocket over 3k a week on my exits and things. They hate them, but it must be a love, hate relationship.

Exactly people supposedly hate them. Well if that's true then no one would click them and advertisers wouldn't use them because they wouldn't be making nay money off of them.

Fact is that surfers want the internet to be ad free and everything on it for free. I can't count the number of people I encounter that are shocked and angry that there are ads or they be required to PAY for things on the internet.

I say newspapers and magazines have ads. I say TV has comercials. That's what pays for the shows. Is wear 99% of people are ignorant of the purpose of advertising.

I ask them if they shop at Wal-Mart or eat at McDonald's should they get those things for free? Of course they say no and I ask them what the difference is?

Some think because they pay for internet access they should get everything for free. I tell them that they have cable, but they don't get HBO for free.
