Nice example of your forum link bait idea. Seems to have drawn at least a little attention. Pretty damned funny.
I agree, you have 40 something replies to this before Nicky even replies... pretty good.
The all around "plot" of this though is an epic failure.
May bring you a little link love on that sig, but it also makes you look like this guy...

whats up with all the pics of retards wearing super man shirts floating around on WF? Oh yea... Durr... Cause we're all SUPER AFFILIATES ... YAY

haha, atleast it's not an incredible example of groupthink....
Throw a shell on that guy and he's a ninja turtle, and there ain't nothin wrong with that!
That post was, but otherwise his blog has a lot of good content. I think I've made more money online because of it.
Yeah you might want to read up on the actual GNU before attacking someone for not doing anything wrong.

/me is guilty as well.
Wanna know what? You're retarded if you leave the templates completely in tact.
1)You're leaving a footprint that will be picked up by scrapers and will give you a LOT of link spam. I removed mine, and my blog receives only 2-3 spam comments per day. Many others who leave footprints in get thousands
2)It's not about the "GPL", "Open source" or anything else to them, it's about getting backlinks to their shitty site. The tactic is fine, but don't expect me to cooperate. that's the only reason the copyright message is in there.
If it's just something they put as a JS/HTML comment or whatever, that's different. But that's not why most people put their "DO NOT MODIFY THIS" section in the template.
And by the way, my template is pre-made to. I don't plan on turning my blog into a business in and of itself, so why would I spend money that could be better invested elsewhere to make a new one?
"Having the money" isn't a good reason. I "had the money" for a lot of things in high school, and prior to getting into this business managed to burn all that off really quick. During my broke ass time I can remember thinking 1000 times "I wish I hadn't spend $xxxx on something that stupid".
I feel like if things go wrong in the future, a template would be in that category.
