That could hurt my bottom line - so that is why I created this poll. But it looks like from the poll results so far that no one (including my competition) seems to mind that I give them a hard time. I am sure glad my competition has a good sense of humor! Dave Jake,

I am sure glad my competition has a good sense of humor!

There are a lot of inefficiencies in our market, currently, and somebody needs to point them out. The trick is to not just point out problems, but to also offer solutions. Your website can be the solution, if you provide that service. If there is another website that provides a solution, then you can point them out. Balancing out the cons with the pros will be much appreciated by all. Dave,

What is the relationship? It's entertainment. Just don't call them "nappy". Why would you tone it down after achieving higher rankings? What is the relationship? It’s entertainment.
