A group in China has been abusing this link submission page for several months now, using it to send numerous emails every day to us. They are advertising products such as chemicals, industrial products, etc. none of which are in any way consistent with the purpose of the Beach Guide. Although we haven't included any of the links they have sent, they continue to email several times a day.

Their rude, improper and inferior behavior have made it impossible for us to wade through all the emails looking for those which are actually legitimate and appropriate to the site.

Because of their actions, we are no longer accepting URL link requests. We apologize to those of you who may have a genuine request, but we simply don't have the resources to handle the additional work required to sort out the genuine from the exploitative.
