Hello to anyone of you who advertise on SU like me and stumble other sponsors. I think time has come to stop our advertisements. In last few days I found out that anyone who stumbles a sponsor link their account gets labeled as spammer. And these guys stop stumbling sponsor websites. Which is hurting my website as I am losing traffic before before I used to get traffic to my site and now I get nothing because those that used to stumble my site, they told me they keep getting reviewed as spammer if they stumble a sponsored URL. May I know what to do with all these losers who are labeling other legit members as SPAMMERS? and costing us money because we are losing traffic.

Thank you

1. Why don't you dismantle your bogus-review spam-spewing bot and then do the honest thing. Thanks.

#1 ConquistadorFor, being a sponsor on Stumbleupon does not give you the right to advertise a product or a website. Sponsorship on Stumbleupon just gives you certain benefits that non-sponsors don't have. If you want to advertise a product or a website on Stumbleupon, you have to pay for it. You must go here stumbleupon.com/ads/ [stumbleupon.com/ads/]

I think it's very strange that you would threaten another member and then bot-bomb his reviews with your little script [that it is against SU TOS by the way] and then try to come here and pretend you have any credibility.

I am a sponsor and I did not waste my money with Stumbleupon. Of course, I did not sign up and donate money with the expectation I would be spamming either. I actually signed up with knowledge of the Terms of Service. You, apparently, did not.

You also said: May I know what to do with all these losers who are labeling other legit members as SPAMMERS? and costing us money because we are losing traffic.

...and you're *not* a spammer? Not trying to use SU for commercial interest? Res ipsa loquitur. LoL

On the other hand, lining up all those little spam-bots like that does make it nice and easy to flag them, and thumb down all the sites they've been used to promote. ;D

Ooo, a couple of those sites were using adsense as well. Spamming to get adsense clicks makes the baby google cry!

If only there were a way to make the baby google happy again; oh wait, what's that Lassie? Timmy's stuck down the well again? And he's found an article on techniques to use against spamblogs?

Hurrah!
