“I’m Not Trying to Steal Your Traffic!” Well, OK, Then How About Your Stop Doing It?

Posted by Patrick on July 24th, 2008 in Dealing with Users, Humor, Managing the Community

I love when people spam and say something like “I’m not trying to steal any one’s traffic.” I love it even more when they are spamming something that is either exactly what we do or similar to what we do. For example, spamming a sports community on SportsForums.net.

“I’m not trying to steal your traffic.” Well, that’s funny, because that is exactly what you are doing!
