- cloakandswagger 11y agoHa, they actually did. Tacky.
- tlibert 11y agosee comments below, I don't know windows so can't write directions. I'm poor so just wanted to cover my hosting, but I removed the referral regardless as I didn't realize I would be attacked for it.
- rMBP 11y agoI don't get why people complain about that. Keep the code but add a disclaimer if it's so much of an issue for some..?
- iconjack 11y agoWhy are you hellbanned?
- tlibert 11y agoit thought I was spamming b/c replying quickly.
- Already__Taken 11y agoKeep the referral code that's what it's for.
- manish_gill 11y agoWhat is wrong with a referral link? Please explain in as much detail as you like.
- ryanq_do 11y agoWhat's tacky about that. DO referral codes do not even pay out cash. The program only provides credit allowing them to continue running their services. A DO referral credit is not a way to make money, just a way to offset costs.
- 1024core 11y agoSo what? It doesn't cost you anything; but they get a couple of pennies for their effort. I can understand the thought behind ad blocking (it fucks up the experience), but a tangential referral code? Who cares?
