Good points. I think your affiliate notification one is a good one.

I do like your referrer one too, but in this case it appears they’re taking it from syndic8.com which you may not want to block.

BTW, I like the new layout and such, nice job.

Good points, although I disagree about the Googlebombing. I don’t think he would care if people found his site by searching for “poker scam”, or “donkey molester” as long as they came to the site. The more people that end up at his site the better, and the more chances that someone will click on his affiliate links. I think the last thing anyone should do is link back to that site.

Great minds and all that — I thought of the mod_rewrite stuff this morning when I woke up.

Honestly, I believe Googlebomb is the way to win this battle. It doesn’t matter how many hits they receive, it’s the sign-ups that matter. And no one is going to sign-up at a place identified with Poker Scams.

I don’t know if we want to use “donkey molestors”, Daddy from SnailTrax might get upset from stealing content from his site

Bill, I hate to ask you, but could you or Scott please help me with these things? I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.

My head is so fuzzy from the drug cocktails I’ve been on the past two months, plus I’m just not a natural “techie.”
