Trafficswarm, now cartoonish?!?!

Trafficswarm as some of you know has been the biggest, baddest
type of link/traffic exchange for years. I think they had upwards of
over 500,000 members, a top 500 worldwide site, etc.

I always thought they were a different level, going for a
"business" attitude instead of the cartoonish crap traffic
exchanges I see floating around. I mean come on, some
are quite childish.

Anyway, have not played with TS in a long, long time, but
noticed they must have been sold or something.

They now have a cartoonish bee theme. I dunno.
If I was serious about website traffic, can't say I'd go
for trafficswarm anymore.

I thought they were targeting a higher level, but now
they seem to have fallen into the cute cartoon traffic exchange
that I have always had a disdain for.

      Point taken.

      Perhaps they realized corporate customers were going elsewhere
      anyway. In the end, it still was a traffic exchange...no different
      than butterfly surf, surf with the whales, or teddy bear surf.

      Still makes me wonder.

        I hear ya.
        I used to be a member of TrafficSwarm for the reasons you pointed out in your first post.
        I used to feel it was a cut above the rest.
        I haven't used it in a couple or more years now and really have no idea why they changed.
        But I think they think it needed to be done to survive.
