TGP, TGP Submitting etc is not a simple or quick process.. it's time-consuming, intensive, and for those who actually make money, requires thought and planning. The last person someone promoting a program wants to do is worry that their partner accounts are going to start recieiving cease and desist orders and their accounts are getting shut down because someone was unimpressed with a "skim" or traffic trade. The fact of the matter is, if a tgp is to grow, they need an infusion of traffic..and since nothing in life is free, it only makes sense that if you are getting traffic, you will be required to send traffic in return. This system ensure the continue productivity of tgps, and hence to the galleries listed there. Without clicks, no gallery will produce. Programs that make it more trouble than it's worth to submit galleries on their behalf simply won't be used. Why? Because there are 50 other programs that are willing to accept those 5 people who didn't get through to the gallery, maybe pushed the back button and had a 5 second inconvenience and actually looked at the gallery and clicked through to the site. TGP traffic can be an extremely valuable resource, however as soon as tgp owners are restricted and forced to comprimise the potential for c and ds or gaining traffic.. Well put yourself in their shoes. They already spend hours every day maintaining their system, in the cases of most large tgps.. If they have to sit and babysit and control every single spot and monitor every single gallery to ensure that someone who might not like it doesn't get "skimmed" or traded.. Well a few hours of work becomes 12, 15, 24 hours, considering the number of submissions the larger networks get. And are they supposed to keep a masterlist of the programs that don't want to be skimmed? Pretty soon it wouldn't be worthwhile at all. Comprimise is an important part of good business, but realizing when comprimise is moving in to the realm of sacrificing producitivity, profit, efficiency, etc, well.. It's not quite as worth it then.
