Annoyance - people making my hits in the red!

Disclaimer - I merely need to rant, this isn't aimed at anyone specific, past, present or future people! It seems everyday now someone different is on a mission to run 1np sales on the shop ads board. This down right pisses me off for the following reasons 1 - Often the person would have shit hits otherwise anyway - so stop faking at trying to look a good maller and actually go out there and put effort into making your shop amazing (disclaimer - not always the case with all people who do this) 2 - You are making my hits in the red due to mass clicking of the misc option and other option. I HATE being in the red, red is ugly, I was in the green for everything except sw, (working on that :P) how dare you people who do this make my page have ugly redness :( 3 - Yes I full on admit it, I want a shot at that top spot!!! I refuse to be a hypocrite and run my own sale though! I so needed to get that rant out of my system

I miss charter boards :P These days without premium I only ever visit a few boards regularly, mainly customisation and shop ads, with lurking of BD chat, it's a tough world out there lol!

I dont like charter anymore. Last time i went there, i stumbled on a board where people were talking about how i hacked a bunch of accounts via this site and how "unclean" i was (when i got iced last month)

no, i meant sales. i mistyped. i would edit it but it would make your post appear random.

ahh i see. And most of my posts are random so it probably wont make much of a difference (A) Anyways, true 1np sales geared towards increasing sales are ok (though as shown here, it doesnt look like a good idea) but when it starts becoming a obsessive tool to get top of the top shops, then these counters completely lose its original purpose.

i remember when my pet won customisation spotlight and the day after my lookup won lookup spotlight. my hits were out of control, over 3k and i wasn't even DOING anything. there were two people who were at like 500-800 hits who BOTH did the 1np sale board thing for HOURS until they were ahead of me. I lurked the boards and watched them do it. at first I found it really irritating that MY GOD they couldn't let anybody else be ahead of them - but by the end of the day I laughed and decided they were losers.

hahaha yeah. I lol'd and lol'd. I even gambled for fun too :P *person is about to get beat* A board's gonna pop up within a couple seconds 3...2...1... board gets made and gets bumped until they're 200-300 ahead haha i win! you lose :P .... a while later *person is about to get beat again* A board's gonna pop up within a couple seconds 3...2...1... board gets made and gets bumped until they're 200-300 ahead etc etc. Rinse and repeat. When kirsty was selling out her shop, those boards went on ALL day. Nowadays, i dont even see even one their boards being made xD

Yeah those boards have disappeared, which sucks because I always used to get the good items when that person had the boards up.
