Dictate?

A member of my traffic exchange http://www.xtreamsurf.com/ recently emailed me a poll some one had started on their forum entitled: “Should Traffic Exchange Owners be allowed to dictate what you market?”

Lol. This was apparently in response to a number of TEO’s who have finally banded together and said: “enough” on the many scams that are being presented on the internet today. My position at Xtream sites has always been rather simple: if I knowingly let a site run which is fraudulent, engages in fraudulent business activities or otherwise scams people in anyway, I am “aiding and abetting.” So, on my sites, no scams allowed.

This has absolutely nothing to do with “dictating” what any person will or will not/ does or does not market. You find something that works for you - go for it. That is your own personal business, not mine. Having said that, I have my own business and I make my decisions regarding what my own business does, stands for and will provide in way of services and goods to the members. I decided that my own business will not run porn or adult content sites. So, if you have one you market, you don’t do it here…you go find the ones that allow you to market porn and adult content. Pretty simple that.

I (as a teo) don’t dictate what you market, you don’t dictate what my business allows. Same goes for sites that we find to be scams or fraudulent in nature. You can market these sites all you want, just not at Xtream. Plenty of other sites out there that will accept these sites…in fact the scammers count on it. You want to spend your time, resources and etc promoting these sites, that is your decision entirely. You want to lose your money and be scammed, hey, knock yourself out.

The scammers count on that as well. Just not going to happen at XtreamSurf or any of the sites I run.
