Who is Hotukdeals?

POSTED BY: blowhole 1 month, 4 weeks ago

I have posted a section about hotukdeals censorship and it dawned on me that only large interent based companies or high street chains are on here! This made me wounder who is hotukdeals? I then refered to the bottom of the page 'about Hotukdeals', there is no inforamtion about who owns or runs Hotukdeals.

No address, no phone number, no e-mail adderss nothing!

I have done a search on whois and all there information have been removed so you cannot see anything!

Are they a company or part of a company? If so how do they make money?

What use would local offers be? Do you ever think HDUK would reach 100k members? I don't think HDUK is a company, like many forums on the web its run privately,(and in theory,) with no commercial partners. Theres not even any adverts on the site (which is great!)
Why all the scepticism?

The OP has issues with HUKD and thinks this might be a way of causing trouble ?

Perhaps the OP's time would be better spent designing his/her own "deals" website and then he can run it how he/she see's fit ?

Spoil-sport.

I did suggest that blowhole(apt) should spend some time on the site to find out things such as the structure of HUKD etc, but it appears that they want a suspension/ban.

Damn shame I say.

personally I dont undestand where everyone is coming from, the question asked was a simple one, we know everything about most of the things or people we deal with in our lives, in fact if you put a deal on here and there is not phone number or could be a private address it gets taken off because nothing is known about it, I may get banned for this - i really dont know - but to me it was a simple question who owns HUKD!

Jules:
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
You are the evil man blowhole. The brothers are HUKD. Maybe you're used to pushing your advertising whereever you want but that's not the way it works anymore.

Good morning everyone! :D

I am not on here to cause trouble or be a pain and name calling it a bit unfair. I do not have issues with HUKD's I think this post asks a fair question, what is the big secret?

So it is fair to raise points which you feel should be raised then banned or suspended for doing so? What is wrong with freedom of speech or a debate about a subject? Opinions can change with a debate. Anyway lets cut out the silly stuff and get down to what this post is about.
