    I do remember how DP was years ago. Although, I believe that more and more people around the world are getting into internet marketing/web services and this huge amount of inflation is unfortunatly reflected upon poorly. DP is still the best out there by far and will continue to be for years to come. It's just hard to contol such a boom in the industry.

    No you can't do that "amice".Look,every country has it's share of spammers and scammers.Why should someone not be allowed to be a member simply by virtue of the fact that they belong to a particular nation?
    Are there nations that have more scammers than others? Well yes,because some nations have a far greater population than others.

    I just wish that it will be possible to buy & sell links on DP in future, too, as that's the main reason why I'm here.

    There are much better sites than this one. There is no proper customer service, Contact us section etc. Infractions are given with no proper explanations, or even totally against what the DP polices say - here admin acts like a kid.

    Just saw this thread opened by a friend of mine and really couldn't agree more with him. I and many of the existing users joined this forum to ask, answer, learn and discuss, but now you can't find any single thread were questions make sense, answers are informative, discussion is active and information is valuable.

    @Shawn You say BST section isn't the foundation, but look what's going on in the main and probably the primary forums of DP - Google, SEO and Marketing ( I hope I'm right here)..

    Same questions asked million times, same stupid threads opened over and over, same replies by same people to all similar threads, texts that are hard to understand and even read.

    I understand that new webmasters need to ask questions, but it's getting ridiculously annoying seeing same shi!t over and over again.

    BST can stay or go away doesn't matter - that isn't the place of learning or replying, but in other forums just put some harder rules for opening threads and approve threads manual at least for some time until users can learn that there is search form they can use.. really!

    There was a time when I was asking questions, debating and replying to non BSA threads, but now I read and reply elsewhere while come to BST here.. - you know for what!

    I don't know what threads you have been reading but.....I see good technical questions asked,then answered. There isn't a single day go by where I don't learn something new on here.
    Are there flippant threads and posts on this site? Yes indeed,DP is a barometer of society in general. You go out into the public and you will hear both meaningless crap,and also good common sense. I would suggest that you simply be a little more circumspect as to which forums you visit.

    I joined DP to learn, not to buy and sell. Which is probably why I'm still here.
    Take away BST, all the crap that goes with it, and all the crappy members that are here solely to sell stuff ... and DP as a community is still a pretty good place.
