Pay-per-click. Let's say 1 in 100 accidentally/stupidly clicks the link. Send them to enough people, and you'll eventually both cover the costs of whatever shitty 'service' site you made, but also get profit. It's the same principle behind typosquatting, except in this case you're deflecting interest rather than capitalizing on the mass need for the base squat candidate.
Telemarketing is an outdated tactic that uses the above principle of low percentage, sufficient gain, and I hope it will be snuffed out within the next decade so I stop getting calls for Jesus Sarrano regarding various sexual/hair growth products.

And I think that the same person cussed someone out because he was killed in a Large Theme Game on Night One. I don't remember where.
He's running Guys Pt 2 mafia. That isn't spam. And the second part is not spam either. Lots of people get angry about dying.
jdodge1019: hasjghsalghsakljghs is from vermont
jdodge1019: vermont is made of liberal freaks and cows
jdodge1019: he's not a liberal
jdodge1019: thus he is a cow
Either abeyhani has relevancy issues or this is deliberate.
You tell me.
(EDIT: Then I got the bright idea to report and someone beat me to it. I think in retrospect this thread is useless now that the Report feature serves the purpose of this thread.)
