I frequently get these utterly worthless "link exchange" invites. The way it works is that Joe Shitbag places a link to one of my sites on a huge "link farm" that doesn't get traffic and has no reason for being except to collect more worthless links. They start off by telling me that they've "already placed my link" and would I do the same in return.
So they put my link on some shitty link-farm, but they want
their link on my main front page. Gee, that sounds fair.....they
bury my link in Upper Mongolia while I'm supposed to give them a valuable, high-visibility link on one of my main pages. So, I screw with these clowns, as I am notoriously likely to do. Mwuhahahah.
Here's one guy that
just doesn't get it....AT ALL! hahahahah! I've put "removed by me" so his link won't appear here...but you'll get the idea.
