The Official Link O'Rama Rejection Thread II

[Latif]

Hi Green Guy!

How's it goin'? (Mayyyyybe you recognize my name, I've been submitting free sites to you (on and off, maybe on avg. 6 sites a year) since, oh, around the year 2000!)

Anyways, this site: http://www.myloveofboobs.com/sites/boobs-of-pleasure/

Got rejected for the reason:
Hotlinking Is Not Allowed

Of course, hotlinking is a no-no, but in this case it is specifically a hosted flash ad from MovieRoom.com (which of course as you know is from Marc (sp?) from Hoes.com). I mean, they WANT us to hotlink their flash ads. They don't have a URL to download the .swf files even if I wanted to host the ad on my own server.

Um, so in this case are you OK with the 'hotlinking'? It's not that really, as I said, it's a hosted flash advert.

Should I resubmit? Or please advise.


Thank you and regards,
~ "Latif" R. Nakashima

Maybe you should ask them for the files

To be honest, the rule is that hotlinking is not allowed - I don't care if it's hotlinked from a sponsor or another domain that you own. We don't allow any.

Ok.

Thank you for replying. I appreciate that when you do reject my sites (happens very infrequently) you make your rules very clear.

Thanks again for your time.

Why not consider accepting this? Times change, our linklist rules can bend. Hotlinking a sponsor's banner ad shouldn't be a problem if the sponsor agrees to it. Hotlinking clips from hosted galleries is another thing entirely and should never be accepted.

Just seems like things should be looked at on a case by case basis.

Sure - how about I send all of those instances to you so that you can double check that the submitter owns the domain it's being hotlinked from or that the sponsor does allow the content to be hotlinked or that the sponsor owns the domain.....yeah, let's add 10-15 min to the review time for each submit

Of course, this might be on my list of things I might change for some people that I might like, but for now, it's against my rules.
