According to my logs, 3hgroup now regularly checks my blog at 10 or 11am, daily - single-handedly increasing the traffic on my site by 25%.
The things you have to do to get a regular audience…
I am now the top non-official result (3rd result) on google when you search for 3hgroup. So here now we have a company that produces a single product that sucks, and anyone who wants to know anything about them or their product will see me as the number-one third-party resource.
Surreal.

What, were you _drunk_ when you posted this? Your comment was posted from inside the 3hgroup private network. Please stop spamming and abusing my site. This is turning into an embarrassment for you and your employer.
I mean, really, don’t you guys have better things to do? Like run a business? You can’t really blame me for flaming you - you definately started this. From your first post you called me an idiot, and now you’ve drawn hundreds and hundreds of hits to my site with your pointless rants and ill-conceived attempts at marketing. If this post is some attempt to bait me, it failed. Frankly, I’m bored with this, as I’m sure anyone else would be by now.
You dug your hole, now lie in it. Sheesh.
Sincerely,
Dan

HAHAHAHA!! NICE ALIAS, 3H GROUP! Dan’s right, you’re just digging the hole deeper. We all know that you guys no longer answer to anyone who actually knows anything about the internet (or much else) 00 no, you’re in the Money Room now. And that’s fine. I want in there myself. Money is great, you can use it to travel to all kinds of fantastic, hospitable and permissive places, like North Thailand and South Thailand and other parts of Thailand. BUT. If you’re in the IT industry, you have to have people working under you who DO have a clue. And if you keep this up, eventually word will get out. Someone working for you will idly search for his employer or his current project on Google, and find you making a complete fool of yourself. Then they will laugh, and laugh, and laugh, but only when your back is turned.
Like Dan said a long time ago, this site is a toy. Your site is your job. Dan and his friends, we’re sharp, but we bore easily. If you stop posting, we’ll eventually forget all about you. (Google never will, though.)

What gives? Are they forwarding all their spam through some auto posting bot?
