No offense, but all of the deals you posted contain referrals to Bigshotdeals.

I have no problem with you sharing good deals and giving credit to BSD, but please remove that stuff from those links.

I hate to be a BOFH it seems all of your links reference bigshotdeals.com in some way or another and it makes me wonder if you were just unaware about posting them in this fashion OR if you are somehow related to bigshotdeals.com and are using our forum members as a "click through bolster." Either way, please post correct straight thru urls to the deals, no redirectors, or dont post at all.

The other posts have been nuked and this one corrected.

Okay, sorry for the mixup i guess.....most forums i'm a member of WANT credit given to the original post/board. Guess that's not how it is done here. Why did my other posts get DELETED compltely though?

Well, Matt is a little heavier handed than I am. I just wanted you to edit the posts to remove the referrals.

Giving another website credit for a deal is one thing, including referrals in the links is another. A lot of other hot deal forums have issues with this.

Just wondering.. are you a "Bigshot Deals Associate"?

You should see how I write my LART's to spam email :)

This was my suspicion and why I deleted the other links. I have a serious problem with them "forum spamming' real forums with "get rich by promoting our click throughs." We provide this forum as a free service to our other forum members for our other forum members. If bigshotdeals.com wants to make money off our website they can pay for some advertisements.
