E-Mail Sluts

How about the confirmation e-mails we all receive from (TGP) submissions. Some are just getting completely out of hand with all the spam and the difficulty in finding the confirmation link. Click here to confirm submission, Yeah .. Ok, no problem but why does it have to take me 10 minutes to find the damn confirmation link in the e-mail. Don't want my submission? Don't you want me to submit again? Better yet how about the ones that tell you to reply to the email. The reply to this e-mail is buried within a paragraph talking about everything else but telling you to reply to the e-mail for inclusion into the particular tgp's list. Are you really going to read it if it doesn't jump out at you once you open the e-mail? Or how about getting verbally abused to the point of being afraid to read the damn email =o). If you submit galleries you know which confirmation I am referring to, Yes Mistress I will put on the blue dress or do you prefer that I wear the black dress with my knock me down and fuck me boots.

The acknowledgments for one, will weed out the free e-mail addies people submit under. There is that word again "FREE". So now you're finished submitting and confirming. Doesn't just piss you off that 5 minutes after you submit, you get another e-mail? You get the spam e-mail.. "Thank you for submitting to my TGP your gallery was viewed by 0 people. I only have 200 spots in my list and you have been rotated out submit again". There is every damn webmaster refer code known to mankind in the damn e-mail. To borrow a line from Voltar, "Are You Fucken Stupid?" Don't you have any pride? Me personally, I wouldn't have the balls to list someone than rotate them out 5 minutes later just to spam them. What does it prove?

Listing someone is the easy part, doing it day in and day out with consistancy builds character to say the least. What are you doing to chase traffic? If you want to spam me just say "hey Pasta can I spam you". Why even bother with a wasted effort? Approval e-mails when effectively and tastefully used, I personally feel could be an effective sales tool. Particularly if it's a unique product or sponsor that is not overexposed. Not a sponsor code that everyone has probably evaluated or is currently using.

Rejection e-mails can cause a lot of hate mail into an inbox very quickly. Rejection e-mails, I believe originated, from a link list owners frustrations. I was apprenhesive to start sending them out. I had the "Fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice shame on me" instinct take over. It's very aggravating to review galleries time and time again and not list them for the same reasons. Try and educate a person as to why the gallery wasn't listed, and hopefully it will encourage a reply. Some replies are very appreciative "I wasn't aware of that", "thanks". Corrected the page gets listed 9 times out of 10. But to come off with a verbal attack in an e-mail because your fucken picasso of a gallery or site has pics that are to small, larger in K then a paysite, more pics then the inside of a paysite, just because you want to give your efforts away for FREE is bad technique period. Comparing you to the larger lists shows no respect for the person or persons that has to list your gallery don't you think?
