People that block goldsellers:
1) Dont want to buy gold
2) Already buy gold and dont need to be told where to go (except by legits, but we tell them to go somewhere very different)

Therefore, their target audience are people that dont buy gold, or dont know about buying gold, after which that target becomes either 1) or 2)

This being the case, why would the make names like lllIII111lll to avoid filters other than just to piss us off?

So either, they are stupid morons with no logic, or, they are stupid morons trying to piss us off.

Therefore, we can prove they are stupid morons. And when its a proven fact, its so much more satisfying ^_^

(e.g, if someone's mum actually is so fat that when they jump into a swimming pool allll of the water is actually displaced, its funnier than if shes nto really that large, and only a normal amount is displaced)


Studying makes my posts weird :oops:

And its ok we still love you.
I completely agree with them doing that just to piss you off, if you didn't want to buy it, why would they try to make it harder for you to block them? You won't start trying to block them and give up and buy gold cause you'll still have the spam :X

exactly, if anything, the annoyance is like you to resent them more, which is just poor advertising technique x)

The spammers are annoying even to ppl who BUY gold, Im sure. I dunno what they hoped to accomplish by spamming other than everyone's hatred which, you are right, is pretty moronic from a business standpoint.

Coca-cola's adverts dont consist of a man standing, shouting at the camera:
"COCA-COLA CAN BE BOUGHT FROM SUPERMARKETS, VENDING MACHINES AND OTHER PLACES. DELIVERY IN 5-10 SECONDS" over and over and over and over.

coca-cola make adverts generally aimed at making society see it as a cool product. who thinks goldsellers adverts have that same impact?

I don't know, but I think Goldsellers are old school web spam like the kind you get from a porn virus or a bad crack website.

I never bought gold and never wanted to, the spam is really a turn off you know?

think of it as subliminal messaging

or if not that then also realize that they are always lowering prices. Maybe someone who wouldn't buy gold for 40 buck may buy some for 20.

Regardless its still very annoying :(

Joymax should simply add the ability to add a selected char to the block list... You could even block yourself :banghead:

its an advertising technique. everyone knows about their site. that's all they care about. the fact that there's a discussion here proves that the advertisements work - people know about it, whether their opinion is negative or not.


i honestly think that marketing is really stupid.
