I don't need to PM Lu or anyone at that matter...Everyone is entitled to form their own opinion and to do anything they want, but I found it strange that someone would tout a site they were opening up on the very same message board they posted at for years....And to top it off opening up a site that would be directly competitve to covers...Now here is where you, Lu and the others shilling for his site say that I don't understand and that he is not trying to compete with Covers or any other site and that his concept is different....Yeah, good luck with that...His site is exactly the same...so what, he offers tipping...who cares...his site is a message board and so is Covers....
The one thing you guys don't seem to get that are promoting his site here is that you are alienating yourselves to this site as well....Also, none of this would even be talked about if Lu and others on his bandwagon would promote his site away from Covers....It's quite clear that the reason Lu and others are promoting here is because people here no you as posters and you think that is good enough so they will join up....So you may say you are not in competition with Covers, but for every member that is taken from here and posts on his board is taking away from Covers so save it with that response that Lu and others have tried to retort with....
How bout taking your show on the road and use other means besides Covers to promote the exact same concept of a site....2ton, when I asked you who uses a competitors site to promote their business on you answered with everyone or lots do....That is a more ridiculous statement then anything that has been posted about Lu's site...So Lu has a message board (that's essentially the basic concept) and you deem it okay to post at Covers, which is also a message board, and claim that others do it....So basically what you are saying is that it wouldn't be uncommon for Coca Cola to advertise on Pepsi's webpage right? Sound asinine doesn't it. but that's what you really told me when you answered my question....
Bottom line...take your ploys at advertising to a different site and no one here will negatively comment on the site you are promoting...it's that simple....don't use this message board to get people to post on your message board...luring people with money isn't even working....move on and rid yourself of the rederick....as of right now you are ousting yourself from this site just as Lu did...
more blathering about nothing...as usual
you STILL do nto understand promoting on other websites, i have been a part of that method for years....it doesnt require a genius to figure out websites post on other websites before they get banned/deleted...covers just so happens to have a section where it is PERFECTLY ok to promote a site...which for some odd reason you are so against it...
you pretty much just made LD different from covers, but ddnt want to admit it
yes everyone is entitled to their opinion, but it doesnt make it fact like you and chamblain/football 10/awesome advertiser make it seem....
point blank, either join up and test it out urself or shut up about it....you make yourself look more and more ignorant with your half assumptions and making this a pissing contest..
its REAL simple, join and post and test it out, you dont like it? great! it was at no cost...i STILL cannot understand how people are talking down on LD acting as if it required a 50 dollar fee...
no one is forcing you to do anything, yet you make it seem like we are...
