First of all, for those of you who actually read the site, i want you to go and read this.
Done? Okay good.
I just thought that post was one of the funniest things ever. Certainly one of the more better ego boosting posts about my site that i’ve read recently. And you all know how much i like to get my ego boosted. I used to have an ego the size of Australia before i read post. Now it’s the size of Australia and New Zealand combined.
But just to clarify about those !!!’s that you see next to some of the links that i have, it is true though about how; if you’re on the list, you’re probably somebody i like. And to a certain extent, it’s also true that if you have a !!! next to your name, you’re also probably somebody i really like. This is especially true for some of those sites.
But for the others, the real reason why i have !!!’s next to their names is because… i’m plugging them. Yep. Plugging them. Or at least it’s just a feeble attempt at drawing people’s attention to them so that they’ll click on their links and give them a coupla hits.
Vicky was suggesting that i maybe revise that system of giving people !!!’s so that it makes it more clearer as to which one’s i really like and which one’s i’m just ‘plugging’. I was thinking of that myself too before she brought it up.
Because really, some of those !!!’s don’t actually stay where they are forever. I cycle them around after every coupla days or so. It can get confusing to some as to why they lose they’re !!!’s after a coupla days.
Like Sung for example. He IMed me yesterday asking where the hell his !!! went and why he even deserved to have an !!! next to his link since he only updates like once every two weeks or something like that. Hehe.
So yeah, i can see how the !!!’s can bring confusion to some people since i’ve never actually clearly explained what they meant.
I used to have the same kinda system on my old layout. Used to have these asterisks’ next to some of the links that i used to have on there. Antwon kept thinking that i had him marked for death because of it.
So anyway, from now on, for the site’s that i really like, i’m gonna have a little <3 next them. And for the site's that i'm just plugging, they'll have a !!! beside them.
i got 2 !!’s. I must be special. Haha! 🙂

More than happy to be plugged. A little <3 would probably make me fell kinda funny.
