    If found guilty in a RICO trial, will Shawn get put away with Paulie Walnuts?

    That's part of my point though.

    He hasn't "hired" anyone that I know of. Maybe asked them to volunteer, but I don't believe he pays anyone to moderate the forums.

    And if you are not being paid, there's only so much you are going to do before you say "I don't get paid to do this s**t!"

    Depends on how much you like the "power". I can reel a few off the top of my head right now.

    Because they can ban you they think they are god like :rolleyes:

    Money isn't everything. To some the power and "respect" is more important and looking good.

    IMO- there's a difference between "Black Hat" and illegal.

    Ofcourse, Blackhat is just advanced SEO (which I DO :D and find it completely legal) and Illegal is related to hacking/cracking etc. :p

    All I can say is... congrats! :)

    IMO, blackhat techniques does make a lot of money (a way much more money than the whitehat counterparts) - and a lawsuit would only be considered by Shawn as another way to get the buzz :)

    A $5000 lawsuit in exchange for a humongous amount of money doing the blackhat techniques PLUS free 'press releases', including one of the threads like this one - all seem beneficial for Shawn and DP :p

    Cheers!

    The comments in this thread reminds me of the comment my great aunt made when she heard they were shutting down "The Chicken Ranch", a famous bordello in Texas. She said, "I feel so sorry for all those poor little chickens." She had absolutely no more idea of what the chicken ranch was than she would have regarding what cookie stuffing is.

    If you post something as incredibly stupid as this, you better hope your activities here can hold up to a cursory check against the rules. :(

    Unreal!

    The only solution is closing the thread and add infractions to others who start threads like this :D

    You morons.. it's a lawsuit, not a criminal hearing.

    He won't get put away, he's being sued. You don't go to jail if you're being sued..

    My thoughts exactly!!!

    To anyone who thinks this is cool, blackhat is the bomb and cookie stuffing is the way to go, guess what?? They're stealing from you, retards!! :confused:

    How about trying to make money the honest way? WOW!! What a novel concept!! :eek:
