Not posting useful information on your site.

I recently had a friend post news of a video of X at my site and as soon as the news was on your site you guys took it off. Now I have a question why didn't you keep it there yet you keep news of other videos being put up on other sites? I think it would only be fair if you let everyone have a chance to make progress in their sites.

Read the terms of use under the legal stuff. It's all explained there.

Could I have someone that actually works for the site answer this?

If it was news, it should have been submitted as a news item. If an advertisement (which it was) is posted in the forums, it is considered spam and it will be deleted.

That pretty much sums up what the TOS says.

Then do you mind telling my why your movies get posted on this site? And no it was not posted in the forums and it was (past tense) on this site. And do you have a problem with me trying to get the video out to the people? I just want people to enjoy the site.

We have not, and do not remove news. We may not approve the news in the first place, but we don't approve it then remove it. What purpose would that serve?

Oh yeah, and how come every hundred times we suubmit our site for your site database, you never reply or add it...how come this is? Theres no reason why you should single us out...just not right.

Jeff decides what goes on His site... He will not post a site with problems on it or lack of content.

And to think that Jeff just singles someone out is ridiculous. For every site he approves, I would guess he turns down 50-75. It's all about content, easy navigation, and frequent updates. Don't think that he is turning your site down because it's personal.

IU shocks the world!

(and screws up 99% of people's brackets. :))

Yes, I do reject probably 75% of site submissions. Why? Well, I'm not out to have the biggest list ever, I'm here to give our site visitors connections to the best and most unique content.

And has been said, if you think it's personal, think again. I don't have the time or desire.

Hey our site is very easy to navigate and has daily updates...so dont go saying that our site is lame and/or something equivilant to that. Anyway, if you are trying to give quality links, how come there are tons or Dead Links eh? We have better updates than most of those sites out there. So think twice next time. Fricken Jerk.

Bolt Yourself In

Whats your site url anyway?

Most of the time they are turned down becuase of Lack of content and you expect Jeff to go through every site in the data base to find one with a bad link? ....

GiovanolaXtreme,

Why so hostile? Jeff owns the site, he can do what he wants.

Also, I believe that most of us here are adults... I would ask that as a courtesy to myself and others, act like an adult when you post here.

Calling people a jerk is generally not a good way to get something you want from them.
