Oh you got the fairmont for free cuz of..wait for it.. REFFERALS.
You didn't answer why it's not on the main site.
Why not tell us about it?
Many DDFers would love 10nights in a $100 marriott or 6 $100 holiday inn nights.
These are the best cards for a family going on vacation(also Spg)
So blog about it!
Why does everything have to be about refferals?

WTH :o :o :o?

He will run his site as he sees fit. If you're unhappy, feel free to read other blogs or start your own. If you have a suggestion, mention it in a civilized manner, and he may or may not consider it.

I don't think it gets any simpler than that. All this back and forth is idiotic.

With Hakaras hatov like that who needs a kafui tov?

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

The problem here is very simple:
Those who are complaining and the like are doing it because of a characteristic that we all have, just some more than others.
It's called Jealousy.

Someone else is very successful in an area you wish you were just the same. You wish you had millions of miles and traveled the world for basically $0.

Why is Hakaras hatov a contradiction to saying that we would like to see you care more about readers and less about refferals?
You're a great blogger and we all learned and gained a ton from you.

You're not writing constructive criticism to me in private.  You're flaming what I do in public. I'm not sure who taught you hakaras hatov, but that's not from the school I went to.

There is a business behind this and you have little knowledge of how it all works and the politics behind it.  Aside from that I have posted hundreds of things that don't pay a dime.  It all depends on the situation and how comfortable I am in my proficiency in making a post on it and whether it's something I would do myself.

For the 3rd time, care to share what your business is? Do you never do anything to feed your family first?

NP, DDF now costs $10/month and Twitter alerts of mistakes costs $20/month. Problem solved ;)
Or how about minimum age/maturity of 15 and IQ of 50. Would eliminate all these babies/idi*ts.

I hate to change the subject from this tachlisdik conversation, but I'd just like to remind the choshuva oilam how to spell the word "referral".

Thanks in advance

..and, it addition to that, WE don't pay a dime, it's all free knowledge from Dan that gives us financial opportunities, financial savings, a place to network, and ways to get food recommendations and go to quality places for Kosher meals, convenient minyanim, and Shabbos-friendly spots all for FREE!  We have a basic teachers'/Rabbi/lower-end salary, and we can fly, vacation, hotel, and dine-out alongside many 5-Star families thanks to Dan!
