Spam My Freakin Inbox One More Time!

Hey there, I just want to share a little words of wisdom with those of you who chose to read this.  My biggest hope in writing this is that the people who see that there is a Triond mailing system and think ” I bet if I send my link to all of the people on Triond they will click it and read it, guaranteed traffic!” are reading this article right now!

I want to ask you, do you want to make friends on Triond? Do you like being liked and having your content read by other users? If your answer is yes to those questions, stop spamming!

Did you know that along with an inbox in the community section of Triond there is also something called a News Feed? I bet you thought that News Feed was there for looks, but it’s actually how active users who like to look at the work of their friends find the articles their friends publish.  That’s right people we don’t need links in our inboxes, we just hop on over to the news feed section, and ta-da your (or our friends) work appears.

We also do not need friendly little reminders like “Hey I just published something! Go read it!” Guess what that does, it makes me want to delete you as a friend and block you from my mailing list. I promise you, if you published something and I think the title is interesting I WILL READ IT! When you tell me to read it, chances are I’m not going to read it. 

I understand that you are excited about what you wrote, and you should be! Everyone should be! However, have a little patience. If you can’t wait for someone to view it so your dashboard says you have a view, click on it yourself. If you are wanting more views, and if your content is good, promote it in social bookmarking sites.

I guarantee that by sending links or requests to read you are going to lose friends, make some enemies, get blocked, and become annoying! The inbox is there for us to talk (did you read that? TALK) to our friends that we have made within the community. You can also use it to pose a question to other users if you are having issues and need help. IT IS NOT FOR SPAMMING YOUR LINK! 

And I think it’s worth repeating just one more time, so bear with me: IT IS NOT FOR SPAMMING YOUR LINK! NO ONE WILL CLICK ON IT! NO ONE WILL READ IT!
