I will Haz, I am just waiting for Yahoo to remove it first, no need to tell him which one to switch.I gave the url to the moderators in the staff room. If they disagree that it is spam they can say so. If I can't tell the differance before a real website and a doorway (this one is pretty pathatic) by now there is no hope for me. You should know by now that I know a spade when I see one. Stevie here is free to post an example.

LOL, yeah you're right - I'm quietly confident.

To prove most cases of libel or slander, the following must be true:
1. The victim or business must be harmed by the statement (either written or spoken
this has been done
2. The statement must be false
seen it numerous times in this thread alone
3. The statement must have been made to more than one person (other than the victim) .
how many times has this thread been viewed?

You are right. I am sorry, it does sound like I may have something against kids in the forum, which isn't true. Some of the moderators are kids.I was just anxious for him to get home and show us a great example of non-spam.

well... i'm anxious to see steve's reply.he's not so quick to prove his point anymore, it seems. if truckxpressions had asked our opinions before cutting a check, we could have helped him save his money. that is the very thing that makes these forums great! if you're going to spamvertise in these forums, you're gonna hear some trash talking, no doubt about that. if you got something enlightening to say, then say it. obviously at this point, trafficlogic is unable to bring anything enlightening to the table. so... maybe later

Are you kidding me?? You build nonsense doorway pages, or lets say you build whole websites.. and then charge them for each click.. are you nuts? Ok.. I did mine the hard way.. I agree.. I do know I could of had my site built, for about 8 or 9k for 2k pages.. but I know it wouldnt of been done correctly.. the matter what you say.. i know my field of business like you could never unless you study it for months.. but the thought of cutting you a check to build so much less of a site, then I dont even own it?? Thats obsurd!!! So in a month when my funds run out on the 7500 check, you take the site off.. or redirect it to someone else, or do whatever you do, which wouldnt matter cause it would result in me not making the money. Like I said.. some people have business smarts and some people just have no clue! Theirs a scam artist lurking in ever corner.. I know.. I just had one with our last shipment of merchandise who tried to rip me, my company off 19,000 dollars. Luckily I am a nice guy and people help me out and the guys in for a nice suprise when he gets his refused shipment back. I encounter people like this quit often, cause their are so many people out their like this. [flame removed.]
This is a public forum, and Truckexpressions, you really need to hire in some management advice.. I dont see how your company could stay afloat with such unwise moves.. I wish you the best of luck, sincerely, and hope that everything works out... Thats all I really need to say...</tantrum>

PS No, Noone should rent a house!! Unless you dont plan on living their long or are having a house built in the area and need a place to stay, then you rent. So unless Truckexpressions isnt planning on staying on the web, well thats when he should rent your website, but i highly doubt that plans on moving his site soon .. right? [flame removed.]

Rgggghh.. can you tell I hate people who operate like he does? Its like the websites that advertise stuff for half the price of the best site but they just ran out of the merchandise, or they just dont ever respond or ship your merchandise.. I know theirs a few in my line of business who have their sites up... or they send you used product instead of new product as they advertised.. takes people the unfortunate experience of dealing with these people before they know better... ok.. im just gonna keep quiet now..

OK I have a simple way for Mr. Steve to prove his case given his own words.... "If the site is considered to be an affiliate of another site by a Yahoo editor, than he/she will simply categorize it as an affiliate when they add it to their directory so that people know. (By doing this, Yahoo is agreeing that there IS value to affiliate sites or else they would not add them to their directory at all.)" When you submit these "content rich" affiliate sites to Yahoo!, do you tell them to make a new affiliate directory for your client and place the site in there, or do you simply hide the fact it is affiliated at all???? If it is the first option, you are innocent, and all the best to you, if it is the second, you are guilty as charged.... If you are not telling them, it is obviously done for manipulation purposes and not honest.

Here is a little lesson. Have you ever heard of ROI. If Truckexpression pays 10 cents a click to these guys and makes 20 cents back then the 7500 is a good investment. Do you really have enough info to say it is a bad decision.

mtgratedir are you for real? First of all.. 15% of people buy who click.. if everyone bought then overture and the rest would be an excellent investment and the world would all be paying overture.. am I 10? haha.. hardly.. am a very business like person coming from the medical field.. I held a position with the #3 medical company in the US. I hardly think I am 10 years old.. but do have a temper.. I just think alot of people are dumb.. and if you really think paying 10 cents and earning 20 is how the internet works.. your wrong.. people browse.. have you heard of that term? they click and click off... 15% if your lucky, slightly higher actually purchase at that time.

P.S. Many people buy traffic on a cpc and it is very profitable from them. So I guess no one in this forums sells traffic cpc. If you sell cpc the client never owns the site. At least with cpc they pay for results. When you build a site and spend weeks on it to make it nice for yahoo, lots of content blah blah blah and it doesn't get them any traffic. The client just spent a bunch of money and got zip. Now that is a bad investment.

I agree.. I dont necessarily agree Janets comments were proper..
[flame removed] I personally have found this forum to be over ridden with people such as yourself lately.. I hope they do something about that as it will bring down any worth of this site.. [flame removed.]
