What happened when I charged NEXT for my time...

Wowsers! - what a response!
Couple of points - it's only meant as a bit of harmless fun, had a stack of positive feedback from folks who enjoyed it, though it might have entertained a bit that's all. So I apologise for being both a tw%t and a di&k. Nothing like a bit of constructive abuse....
And I certainly don't make ANY MONEY from anyone reading it or clicking on anything or in any other way - it's just for fun.0 -
I would have thought that the time it took to faff around and type that mammoth thesis, was far greater than any time NEXT had made him waste.
Some people need to get a life!(•_•)

Nice screenshot here for you showing my blogs 'earnings' page

Back to topic.
Had OP come on and said he had a run in with Next and given some brief detail of his issues then said 'and you can read my story more in depth here...' then fair enough. But they left a blog link with a misleading title (because they didn't bill Next at all) then vanished.
The post is just there to drive traffic to a blog. No more.
:rotfl:
:T
No further comment needed.
It makes me laugh how you've edited a post of just "no further comment" to add a lot more comments.......
It's very charitable to direct complete strangers on MSE to a makeup company for absolutely no financial benefit and yet perversely when another poster puts their blog on the site you launch a campaign to stop people clicking on the link as its against the rules of blogging......0 -

So do tell me why your OP made out like you'd just stumbled on it if you weren't trying to get traffic to your blog?Just re-read this and had a good old chuckle to myself.0 -
I'm sure I didn't read your blog on health and beauty (although if I did you do realise that when you post on a web forum you are not just sharing with your friends).
I think you used to link it to your profile as I am sure I saw it when I was randomly browsing posters profiles on the site.
Either way I don't see why it is remotely your business if people click on that link, plus ironically to get the content to post on here you had to click on the link yourself. You would be far better just reporting to MSE and let them deal with it as opposed to being some sort of crazy vigilante which has just led to people getting into arguments on this thread.
You remind me of another poster as she deliberately posts inflammatory things to just get a reaction out of other posters and sidetrack a thread.
Go on, name and shame.
It's not me is it?:eek:

Didn't see any point in making another post. Apologies, didn't realise you now moderated this section of the forums.
Oh wait, you aren't.0 -

I aren't what? Moderated? Is it possible to be moderated?0 -
Oh and for the record, a link to my blog hasn't been posted here for the last 12 months at least, and when it was it was buried in a 100+ page thread full of women posting about nail polish.
I'm very flattered that you pay so much attention to my posting history though.
Oh, and again to reiterate, I don't get paid for my 1 hit a day0 -

I always forget who it is. There are two posters both with similar names and I get them mixed up. One is a good poster and one isn't so I don't want to tar the wrong one.
Also I don't want to start an argument with her!
I'm only joking.I think you might be in trouble if you did name someone anyway, so I shouldn't have asked, even though, I am just kidding about.
