Also, your link is bad.

Yeah I always forget forum-style markup language syntax. If only there was a markup language pervasive across the web. They could call it HTML or something.

Fixed.

Does GH get any money from the redirects? does Missalaire?

wouldn't like  anyone swiping GH's traffic redirects if that is what's supporting the site.

I'm not talking about steam.. I just see missalaire posting deals all the time.. Thankful for it, but I'm wondering "why"

Why does anyone post anything? Maybe she enjoys looking at deals? Maybe she enjoys informing people of deals? Maybe she enjoys the fact that you hardly make your way over to the great deals sub and bother her?

Yes, those are my exact questions.. but what's in it for her?

What I don't believe in is complete altruism..  which is the same as unconditional love...

Now, don't go arguing that with me... you know you don't want to.

You're right, I don't want to. Arguing love and selflessness with someone who knows nothing of either would be fruitless for me.

I don't know about love...

Complete selflessness is impossible...

You're lying to yourself and everybody else...

IMO you being a liar is worse than being selfish.

sory damienG.. it's a good deal..

this greatly affects the voucher price on ebays, so anyone who's bought the graphics card with the AMD voucher better sell them quick..

if the game is $25 on sale, that means the voucher is worth half...

Just to clear things up I do not make anything off posting these deals. None of the links I post are referral links of any sort, referral links are against the rules here anyway I believe. I'm just in it for the free +1's bro, gotta get that post count up and catch up to CPTBadAss.

To be completely altruistic missalaire would have to actually MAKE these deals happen.  These deals are not hers nor does she set the prices.  Relaying information which benefits another is not a form of altruistic behavior.

She's said it herself that she's an avid lurker of woot and slickdeals.

Any of us could be missalaire, but few of us can rock it quite as hard.
