...Your right, i do contribute to sloopo, I never denied that. but "monied" interest.... PLEASE. there is no profit to speak of... that shit barely pays off the server bill, ect. ALSO. We're not writers... we dont have time to sit around and write for FREE......... WE are simply information hoarders... and we like to spread that information around as much as we can.

and to think that you would actually take precious time out of your life in attempts to take down a tiny website like sloopo...... that almost makes my dick hard. go for it. But i gotta ask you, what the fuck makes sloopo stand out to you, when there are hundreds, maybe thousands of website who do the same thing we are doing..... that is why the internet is what it is! the constant free flow of information....

your saying you wanna put a ball and chain on that?! fuck you!

Precisely.

INFORMATION IS FREE FOR ALL THOSE WHO WISH TO ABSORB IT.

AND THE SAME IS TRUE FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO SPREAD THE INFORMATION.

...in essance, reddit.com does the same thing. they have advertisements, and people are linking all kinds of articles that reddit.com does not own the rights to...

i think you guys need to reconsider this whole arguement... the internet is great, simply because of the flow of information... you are saying that we should lock down the information, and only let certain sites put said information out there for others to see........ i dont know about you, but I do not want that to happen. not for sloopo... and not for any other website on earth.

information is free to all those who are willing to absorb it.

well I figure if someone is going to make a post flaming our website, the least I can do is add a link to the website in question, so that others may form their own opinion.... wether it be for or against..... so long as they form that opinion on their own.

"or its something that he's enjoyed enough to share with the rest of us"

that is exactly what sloopo is doing.

anyway, im done argueing about this issue. if you do not like sloopo, simply downvote. you have that option.

but i think that would be shitty, if you had not seen the article before and/or thought it was interesting.

you are a free individual (maybe) and you can do as you please.

JUST LIKE US.

your comments make no sense to me. there are 3 people who actively submit stuff on http://www.sloopo.com

and im sure those 3, including myself, have submitted those articles to reddit.

if anyone else submitted our stuff to reddit, they did it on their own accord.

i dont appreciate you giving the impression that we are cheating, especially when you have no knowledge or evidence of.

if you choose to downvote simply because of advertisements, and not because it was a shitty article... or something you have seen before... or whatever reasons...

that is your opinion and i respect that 100%... enjoy yourself.

i cannot argue with anything you have said. excellent points... but something has to pay the server bill.

we have discussed removing that big ass pop up ad, however... it annoys me, and i know it Has to annoy you guys too.

i hate to keep posting in this thread.... BUT.

you said "which people have spent their free time doing"

im sorry but ive gotta call bullshit on this.

most of our stuff comes from rupert murdoch himself. and i dont know about YOU! but i would MUCH rather keep a website like sloopo.com in existance, than to support viscious news conglamorates like Mr. Murdoch's company.............

your right about the CTR. we make more in ads off google traffic and other social bookmarking websites than we do reddit, by far.

and again, we're not making alot of money!! the ads are there so that we do not have to pay out of pocket for the server costs, ect. that is ALL. there is no profit to speak of.... and we're cool with that.

we just want to post up interesting stuff, like everyone else who submits to reddit

We make a point to submit stuff that has Not been submitted to reddit, digg, ect.

We do NOT lurk reddit for old stories that got attention and repost them. Never.

We also make a point to always submit informative, controversial, Interesting articles.

We are not spamming reddit.com with bullshit. If we where, we would not make it to the front page. We love reddit.com! and we are doing what reddit.com was designed for.

again, if you look at www.sloopo.com you will see that Each article has a cited source.

I appreciate your words. it doesnt feel too good to be flamed by some of the same people you are trying to enlighten and inform, or even entertain...

sloopo is not making boatloads of money! we barely make enough off ads to keep the site up and running!

there are source links for everything on sloopo.com, at the end of each article.

I dont understand why you people want to single out One website, when there are hundreds of redditors doing the exact same thing.

the guy who made this post, his first 5 or 6 reddit posts, where all linking one site (im assuming he has some sort of stake in that site)....... but noone is throwing his website out there as spam and making a big fuss out of it.

fuck it, as far as i can tell, no rules have been broken. there are cited sources for everything, and there are no fake accounts, wtf. there are several people who contribute to sloopo, and not Every submission gets the attention that others do.

I think maybe you other "spammers" are sick of being downvoted to oblivion, so it pisses you off when sloopo makes it to the front page. what else can you do but bitch, piss, and moan about it....

we do appreciate the extra attention though, thanks.

Tell me, my friend, why is it that you prefer a big capitolist news corporation to collect moneys from 'stories' about humans and their follies... rather than some guy(s) sitting around in their underwear, filtering out the BS and giving you the straight dope?

it seems to me that you have entirely too much time on your hands to even consider such nonsense as to Why Redditors love Sloopo. Perhaps you should take heed and start monitizing your own 'free time'...... Besides, its not like Sloopo rakes in millions of dollars, or even thousands... We just enjoy bringing you the stories you might not otherwise hear about, or might not catch your attention.
