I don't so much as mind if people tell me they are linking me and to link them (well lets see the amount of times that has happened I can count on three fingers), if they suck, I just err don't e-mail them back and try to forget the strange thing ever happened.

With this strategy I have never failed!

Yes.

What do you say to someone whose webcomic sucks so horribly that you can't bear the thought of soiling your links page and all the other comics on it with said awful comic's presence? I felt bad about ignoring e-mails, but I had to do that on two occasions, because I really didn't know how to nicely tell the people that they sucked.

Seriously, it's great to link other people, but asking for linkage is not a good idea. Unless someone asks you to give them comics to link -- then, pimp away!

I'm with Blackaby on this one. Ask away, if I don't like your comic I'll just ignore the request. I understand if people don't link to me, I don't think it's such a big deal, really.

But it's good to know the consensus is not to ask.

It hurts being rejected. That's why I don't ask. And it hurts knowing you're hurting someone else. That's why I don't link on request alone.
