I don't think there is anything wrong with LinkBee, just how we've seen it used.

Using LinkBee to directly reference an image on a site you don't "own" constitutes bandwidth theft. That is against forum rules. It may also be a copyright infringement.

I don't believe there is anything wrong with referencing a page URL via LinkBee. In that case, it's arguably on the same moral/legal footing as a search engine which hosts ads on its results pages.

If you want to try to earn yourself a nickel (and that's probably all you will earn) posting URLs to interesting wetlook pages, more power to you. Just be fair to the sites you reference by posting only URLs which help the site owners earn their revenues.

What is so bad about linkbee?

I'm in no way affiliated nor do I use linkbee. What is so bad about it. Some have said it is a way for people to make money. If that is true what is wrong with someone earning a little money as long as it isn't hurting anyone. For all we know they may be using the money to purchase wetlook movies or site memberships. The world economy isn't in great shape and lets be honest most site memberships aren't cheap. So let us not begrudge someone for trying to make a little money. Now with that being said, if these links are in anyway harmful then they should be discouraged. Those are just my thoughts for the day.
