I just noticed that every time someone types the word "skis," it becomes a hyperlink to skis.com. That's going to get very annoying, very fast.

Skis.....
I just typed skis and dont see a link. Maybe it's a problem w/ ur buttplug; you should PM Rontele
Nope, still there. I think it is your buttplug that is broken. Make sure the page loads completely or hit stop and you'll see it.Quote:

Looking into it. Yes, could get very annoying and not our intent. We may however put a link to buttplug as that could be very lucrative.
I noticed it. Then I immediately got over it. Seriously - who cares?
You should most definitely PM Rontele on that. Blurred too.Quote:

Super annoying. I also get it with 'the house' and 'backcountry'. I clicked on both thinking they were links to a relevant page not a stupid ad.
The edges have recently been done on my buttplug so I don't think it's that.

You have this TARGETED MARKET that's interested in NICHE goods and services, and you're trying to make pennies on STUPID LINKS in USER GENERATED CONTENT that NONE OF US will use to buy anything. Use cookies to track the gear we are looking at and flash ads on the sidebar. Sticky threads for revenue generating opportunities like the film tour.
But please, why fuck with the user generated content?
I don't want MY trip reports to have links to YOUR affiliates. Makes me want to just move my content elsewhere.
Wow, I am really butthurt about this. Who's with me?
How long have you been using your but plug it could just be packed out and time for a new one.
HUSKY LATINAS!!!!

Doing it for snowboards too.
A little tacky in that it's linking to a different company than is being mentioned for making a donation.Quote:

Just testing some of the equipment items to see if they link. I noticed the skis, but really just figured the site was doing a new revenue stream.

It's a smarmy way of building link stats and click through on the shoulders of what appears to be pear group endorsement at a casual glance.
I've gone onto their facebook page and complained several times about it (big surprise that they pull down the comment each time).
If you don't like it, I would suggest doing the same, or complain to their affiliates.
It's being worked on. Relax, go skiing? :)
