Funny DP posts

    I don't know if it amuses you but it does me when I see posts with the titles that go something like this:

    Hi guys, I am selling SEO packages, can you tell me how I can drive more traffic to my site?

    or

    Looking for investors to invest into this awesome idea I have in my head. Can't share it here. I need about $50,000.

    or

    Such and such affiliate program is a scam! I drove a ton of bogus traffic to them trying to rip them off and now they cancelled all my earnings. Scam!

    and on and on...

    Share some of your own if you've got any.

    Didn't see this one on DP necessarily, but it's always amusing to see variants of this:

    "Become a millionaire overnight! Pay a one time fee of $37 to view my secret path to success, and you too can reap the benefits!"

    Yep, posts like 'Paying $2 for 500 words, looking ONLY for HIGH-QUALITY work and EXTREMELY TALENTED writers' in the Content Creation do amuse me.

    There was one DP post that went something like this:

    Help, I need assistance with marketing my ebook about the secrets of Internet Marketing. I also want to offer IM consulting services. How do I get traffic and sales?

    I saw a similar post from someone asking how to drive more traffic to his marketing website. Lol I had to comment how ironic his post was!

    This has always amused me as well, people selling services and products that they know nothing about, it's fucking hilarious.
    Would be the same as if a sleazy salesman were trying to push a shit computer on me for double the price when he knows nothing of computer.

    Another instance of funny posting - A writer, in the Content Creation (BST sub-forum), recently quoted her rate in a thread at $2 per 100 words when the OP was specifically looking for a cheap writer. :O :oops:

    It's usually buyers in that section that give me the giggles; this time it was a seller.:p
    Trends are changing, I guess.;)

    I am surprised that this big spender went the full $15 and not $12.50. And I truly hope that he got what he paid for.
