Hello Everyone,
I would just like to remind everyone that as per our service agreement,
terms and conditions, terms of service (whichever you choose to call
it) that we do not allow trademark bidding.
Please refer to Section 2 Articles 5 and 7:
5. We also prohibit the use of keywords, search terms, and domain
names that contain any variations of our Trademarks, such as
"Fleshlight,? for use in search engines, portals, sponsored advertising services,
or other search and referral services. If you send visitors from any
site we consider an unacceptable traffic source, your account may be
cancelled, and any monies owed to you will be forfeited.
7. You will not redirect traffic to our site where the URL remains in
the address when a customer attempts to bookmark, what appears to be,
our site.
Please cease all trademark bidding within the next 48 hours or we will
be forced to remove you from the Fleshlight Affiliate Program.
Thank You For Your Compliance,
The Fleshlight Team

Those rules are pretty rediculous... you want affiliates to promote your "fleshlight" yet, not refer to it as a "fleshlight" for fear that the affiliate will get better SE rankings that your own site?
Support your affiliates or market it on your own.. you can't have it both ways.
