Link Drops

Anyone else fed up with it?

Ok. so you don't quite understand unless I speak it outloud, I know!! (Keep forgetting the mind reader aint around any longer!!).

So whats the official line on it, in that various come along and post up a new thread that merely links to a new blog post they have done on some website away from this place, thus driving traffic to it and of course getting the links worth to them as well.

Yep if you write a blog on here in that section and link to it fine - but do we really have to keep heading to various to read what is basically a big advert for their business??

When I see a new thread like this, I just want to go along and be rude and post up along the lines of get lost, join in or bugger awf!! I did so once, and got whinged at by the Op for it, but heck, I thought this place was about networking, relationships, gaining and giving knowledge, oh yes and just generally being silly late on a Friday night!! Ok, so nice sideline being getting business from it, if thats your thing. Maybe I am just getting old and grumpy??

Gawd, I will start sounding like Earl soon then!!

Oh I know you get the various who come along simply to post 15 then drop a link, but I am referring to people who have been around for a while with a couple of 100 posts, who seem to think we really just want to read their blog posts, that take us away from the forum ...

If I want to do that people, I will simply get your blog in my inbox to read every time you deem to write something useful!

Pah!!
