Animal Rights Posting Etiquette

Please keep in mind that this is a Hunting and Angling Club forum and it would not be appropriate to post links to Animal Rights websites. We sometimes have a tendency to share the crazy antics and hypocrisies that we find on these ARA web sites however...........................

When you click on their links, they can make a profit for every page load they receive. You may inadvertently be funding the Animal Rights movement by telling others to check out their antics. Furthermore statistical data is collected from originating websites. In other words they'll know and be able to show customers where their traffic gets generated from.

Lets not make the Anti hunting and fishing crowd any money by being one of their internet billboards. Trust me they don't need our help as much as we do.

So glad to see this post! I had no idea they would make profit from their clicks.

Clicks are a big web business. That's what pays for NFN. Every page load earns them a specified amount and if you click on the ad, they make even more. We can't do that here because we don't own the site. Of coarse Rick (owner of NFN) has to pay for web space etc, he'll make a few more bucks if we click the ads.

Also when it comes to Google ads, the more you type in a word the more it influences the ads. Watch the ads in certain forums where discussions are taking place. In a busy hunting forum you'll see hunting ads and a fishing forum you'll see fishing ads. If you type animal rights too often, you'll see ARA advertisements. Curious people then make them money.

Hunting hunting hunting fishing fishing fishing ;D
