Really??? Damn. I might have to take another look at that topwebcomics thing at that... :eyebrow:

It's not that bad... until you have too many buttons, facebook, twitter, t-shirts and a description of all 20 genius creators, like some comic that appeared in Comic Pitching not long ago.
Or the "DONATE TO ME DONATE MONEY GIVE ME YOUR MONEY PLEASE LOOK SEE I'M DOING A COMIC SO WON'T YOU GIVE ME MONEY" and the person updates like three times a year.

There was a comic on FA I used to follow until the artist got on this "I refuse to post any more comics until you people give me commission money" kick. That's when I pretty much lost interest. Arrogant asshat... :evil:

People vote for who knows which comic and it counts as your votes.

I range from 630 to 420, sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down. Anyway, in general, i seem to be slowly gaining up positions.

BTW, the "vote" button on your site actually is not a vote button at all, people who click on it simply go back to The Webcomic List and that's it. No voting. I actually just keep track of it to make comparisons with SDXF and crosscheck statistics with other sistes.
My old comic, in its most glorious days was ranked 800-ish, tho, there probably was more competition back then.

That shows up as a link on my browser, when I clicked on it my phone started to make a call. My phone must of thought it was a phone number. I panicked and hung up but now I'm curious as to who I was calling. Who could it be!!!!

Freaky minds think alike.
SPAM!
I kind of wish this spam mades sense, because its something to do with bumper stickers and advertising and I think that'd be quite intresting from a possible merchandise front. Ah well.

A lot of the comics I read come through signatures here (although a lot of Those are on hiatus). Maybe we should just replace our site links in our sigs with vote links. Make them look like dragon eggs for extra traction. Or bumper stickers.

I vote indiscriminately! Not that it'll do much in the 5 days left of February, but I like to get in the habit.

No idea if someone else signed up for you or not but you could always contact the site to see if they'll tranfer control to you.

I need to remember what e-mail I used when I registered so I can add an incentive.
