Why is this bad? It's Misdirection at its finest
While the world is looking at Pinterest and these spammers, and all the NOOBS rolling in to try and copy the methods to use it, the rest of us, can hover over here in the corner laughing while collecting payments from a More profitable method, few Know about

That's just how I see it...
No publicity is BAD publicity.
What misdirection? All it's done is drawn attention to the fact there's a lot of spamming on pinterest happening.
No publicity is bad? How is it a good thing getting publicity about your spamming methods? That's just the most ridiculous statement I've seen this month on bhw. Maybe even all year.
There'll be no "hovering" in any corner collecting payments from "more profitable" methods. What'll happen is it'll become more and more difficult to post and monetize because they'll tighten up the site.
Unless you're selling bots, accounts or you're an affiliate network then this is BAD.
I really don't understand how you think having the world know about your method gives you an advantage somehow. The most money is made from the methods that NO ONE knows about.
I have one right now that can be scaled to $20k/day. Only one other person on this forum knows about it. Do you know what would happen if everyone found out? I certainly wouldn't be "hovering" in a corner collecting payments. I would suddenly be lucky to make $2/day from it.
The guys who are making big bucks have discovered stuff that no one else is doing and guess what.. They keep their mouths SHUT.
I've been in this game for a long long time and I've seen sites go from being so easy to spam you could make $1k/day by messing around, to barely being able to make $1k/month because they get publicity.
Look at the youtube mobile views..
When will you people learn? This is not some little secret blackhat club. There's a quarter million REGISTERED people here and god knows how many viewers.
I was talking with someone today who posted about a ppc traffic source just a few days ago, and already he's noticed bids have gone up. This is what happens when you start spilling your guts for a few rep + thanks.
Stop sharing sites/traffic sources, people. There's a million different things you can share without damaging your income, but people start talking about specific sites then trouble looms.
I promise you that within a couple of months pinterest is going to be very hard to spam.
Facebook used to be a piece of cake. Everyone and their dog was making $1k+/day. I'm not kidding. There was COUNTLESS noobs on cock-lead(first incent cpa network, lol) who were well over $1k/day.
Guess what happened though? Too much talk, too many people spilling their guts and now the facebook game is much much harder and only being beaten by the really smart innovators.
It just boggles my mind why someone who's making almost half a million a year on a site would think.
"Oh, I know! I'll go and do an interview and tell them all about my spamming!! I'll get famous, yay, who cares about this half mil a year."
Luckily 90% of people give up or never take action anyway

But yea, guys selling services should just sell some BS to people who's accounts are from March and a few months ahead to make them go away again ;-)
That leaves the 10% who do take action, and 10% of 10's of thousands is still a LOT of saturation.
Even having 10 players enter the game can be seriously damaging.
Ok so noob saturation may be bad, but...
ADAPT OR DIE.
I think it's time to monetize this influx of noobs
This kind of talk sounds good in theory, but the only people who are going to profit in the short term are the pinterest account/bot sellers. Unless you get in on that action and get your own bst up, which I really doubt you will, then you're just going to be one of the 1000's of losers when most of the methods that work now will barely make you $1/day soon.
