We're not your average joes. Okay, there might be 1-2 idiots who hang around, but most of us have a brain, and we know how to use it. In other words, we think. We critique. We rip what looks like obvious stupidity to us apart with no mercy, because there's plenty of it out there, and we're about as sick of it as Tom Hanks is of coconuts.
Into this comes your first post. No prior history, no knowledge of who you are, and it's a link to a site (which I myself have not visited admittedly, but I am not critiquing the site itself) that purports to be pushing the "next big thing" - something which Cthulhu knows how many other websites are out there claiming the exact same thing, and looking for $ on the barrelstock.
If one of the oldtimers here did that, we'd take a look, and if it was indeed a valid site, we'd congradulate him on a good find and go about our merry way. If it was a scam, he'd need SPF 90,000 to survive the flaming.
Now, if we'd completely annihilate one of our own for posting a spam-like link to the board, how do you think (if you do) we'd react to somebody brand-new posting something that triggers every single "THIS IS A SCAM!" warning receptacle in our brains?
Think about it.
If you expected flowers and heralds, well, I suggest you try a Yahoo web board.
