Make a long story short the website has "sneakers" in the domain name but has links and content pertaining to sneakers and shoes. All shoes or shoe related keywords (including tennis shoes as you west coasters call them) were deleted.
yeah I tried adding a few sites and all the keywords for the sites were rejected
I emailed them and explained their traffic is garbage and it's good for nothing but arbitrage
but I doubt my email will have any effect on them
They don't consider just links as content. I had them kick out a bunch of keywords on a distributed landing page, and when I followed up with them, they cited the TOS where it says links are not content.
i actually have the same traffic today as i was getting a couple of weeks ago - they let me keep my multiple sites, and even called me within a few mins of me complaining that they wouldn't verify one of my user id's and that i wanted a refund...
maybe they are slapping themselves in the face now that they realize where their bread is buttered..
