An affiliate's role is to promote programs. So why is this one special that he was "going out of his way?"

This program will be a massive pain in the ass going forward. Likely will keep a majority of the funds for some small, irrelevant reason.
Affiliate said "go fuck yourself".
The rest you know... By the way, this board is called "go fuck yourself".

As for the rest of this, those of us showing understand of the program's side regarding the performer's persona and previously used ones, as well as the nature of her current content versus past content....I know I don't, and I don't think any of the others are agreeing with the way the program handled the issue. No one here is defending the "threatening legal address" tactic, nor any of the other things the sponsor did (contacting 200 other webmasters, etc.). We're just saying there's logical reason for the sponsor not wanting the model's new persona (which is softcore) being promoted using anything that might reference her past personas and content (obviously hardcore).
Again, I don't think anyone is defending the unprofessional way the sponsor handled the issue. We're merely addressing the core issue itself.
