advertisement and press release tone

Many of the sources were news articles, press releases or even analysis of press releases (the microsoft watch page), so the tone transpires everywhere on the article.

Also, the quotes at how it works ought to be replaced by simple explanations of the mechanism . The explanation is (somewhat) relevant to understanding the patent on the shopping method and why Microsoft bought the company --Enric Naval (talk) 17:24, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

eBay reselling

The number one motivation for purchases on Smack Shopping is volume purchasing for resale on eBay. This should be noted in the article. There is much controversy around this among users and many users have stopped using the site as a result. I tried to note this, but my change was immediately undone.(216.163.254.1 (talk) 15:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC))

Smack Shopping games and surrounding fraud

Most users of Smack Shopping do not actually make purchases. They play the Guru Guessing and Outwit the Smack games. These should be noted in the Smack Shopping section. Also there is a lot of fraudulent manipulation of the results of the Outwit The Smack game by users with multiple accounts in violation of Jellyfish's Terms of Use. This is worthy of mention.
