Having thought a bit more about the idea of links to sites that are not supporting us as such - an idea that you may have gathered I'm less than luke warm about - I have pondered it a little more and what would make sense is reciprocal links. If sites do no more than host our banner then we'd be more than happy to reciprocate.
You can all help me with this too. If you persuade a site to do this the post here to let me know and Bob's your uncle, Fanny's your aunt; they'll get a link (probably on a general links page to avoid excessive download time on established linking pages).
Sound?
Andy

Reciprocal links might run out of control if you're going to limit the # of Links pages, ie every shop/club that wants free ads posts our banner. Great for our hits, but what about your server, Andy? Sounds like a webmaster decision. I did ask the translators to post everywhere they could; I did not ask them to offer a banner swap. The BIG one hasn't replied - Web Grognards. I'll keep trying. F2

I'll spin-off numerous links pages if required. Don't think it'll be that big a deal. We can always withdraw the offer, for new links' if it becomes a problem.

Well, webmaster-san, you want me to start sending out offers for reciprocal banners? Andreas and Christopher got great hits just with their posts. Fritz

Uhm. Lets give it a while b4 we actively pursue the RB's - Andreas has done the German pages (and I think the Polish ones will be in soon). Lets get the phase 1b of the site done and then we can solicit banners - if they trickle in of their own accord in in the meantime then fine.

Well I put up a link to CBDO on Private Wars, reciprocity is not a requirement to me.

Thanks Gary, but you're a member of the team and therefore qualify for a link anyway, as does anyone who directly supports this effort.
BTW I added yours earlier today - hope you like it.

It's just fine. I'll have to spend some time pretending to be artistic in the next couple weeks and come up with a real icon for Private Wars. The Kyth site got a lot of special attention over the holidays, but almost all of it was the result of having friends over who wanted it to have more pizazz... and wanted to add to the Movie's section ( www.kyth.org/ is the logical parent site and hosts a lot more than just my gaming activities). Believe me, that got a lot of blather during our New Years eve party.
