    Use your commonsense my friend. You are asking all directory owners .... "Are directory good ?" .. what reply you expect ? offcourse they will say directories are great and give you tons of reds and attack you badly. Thats what you saw above. :D :D :D

    I didnt know that this was that serious that could hurt my reputation and everything. I never ever expect this. I didn't know it was that Bad.

    Ok I apologize for posting this poll. I thought I could run a discussion. But I found out this was a STUPID POSTS and was a insult to all directory Owners.

    So Please if Any Moderator sees this , I request you to delete this.

    Anyways.., thanks

    This is getting ridiculous with all these retarded threads. I don't know who has been the most retarded lately: digitalduke, bhushna222, or workshop?

    Quit being stingy with the red reps people! :mad:

    I own myself a directory. This was supposed to be a discussion. Not an attack to reputation. If you dont like the thread, Dont reply to it. Why give red reps.

    If this is getting ridiculous, I dont blame anyone. I am already for this freakin poll. And I dont enjoy the red reps because I want to stick to this forum like everyone else. I didnt spend so much time in here just to play around.

    And Looks like I am just only one who feels that way.

    Thanks again

    Nope. There are a lot of people who believe its got a future. Despite the fact there is going to be some attrition, attitudes are changing and it can only get better.

    So Shawn should make a new rule "Don't post anything against directories in the directory section since it prevents people from clicking signature links and buying links from directories" ........... And this forum is only for posting positive things right ??? Negative threads and posts kill your business and shouldn't be done right ??? He asked whether the directory business has ended. If you are confident then yes post there "No It has not ended. Directories are great and will survive" Thats a good and great statement. Redding people is a cowardly act of bastards.

    Don't drag me in please. I haven't posted anything wrong. Whatever i said in both the threads of DigitalDuke and Bhushna was just that starting a thread in directory section asking directory owners "Are directories good ?" is meaningless since the only answer you will get is "Directories are great" so instead of starting threads, go and read blogs and other threads and use commonsense to decide yourself what directories are and what value they give and whether they have a future or not.

    How about those "Strongest Directories" and "Authority List" posts that we were force fed not so long ago. Real constructive stuff those. Get a life.
    Funny how all the red is anonymous. Tells you something.

    You may suck in others with your constant trolling, but you won't suck in me.
