I am paying the last few people because it’s the right thing to do, to be honest I am not even sure I going to really use affiliates again. I may promote it on my own with tub sites and buy my own spots I have not decided yet. I have a question do I owe you money? If I don’t than I don’t get it why would speak for the people I do? I am not trying to argue with you just curious I never understood people who post about stuff that has nothing to do with them. If I do owe you money then please send me an email so I can get you paid. Thanks, Shane
You will use affiliates again. And you are apologizing to be able to get them again and debating this with you is pointless considering nobody is going to admit to doing what i am accusing you of.

Thats interesting, opinions of people can only be had by ones that were ripped off? Where is the logic there.

People who rip people off in this industry affect almost everybody when they do so (indirectly). Not sure if youre intelligent enough to figure that out on your own but i run a program and i run an honest one and there is a TON of transactions made in adult build on trust. I pay my designers, grunt workers, do deals with photogs, etc - its all done on trust. When you have programs screwing people over, it makes a huge mark on the industry and people have to chagne the way they do business. For example, if i had started up with nats at the start, i dont even think i'd be close to as successful as i am now, because of all the programs that were ripping affiliates off. They simply stick to ccbill programs now. Solo Converts being one of those programs to rip people off and they had a similar name to mine as well, so that didn't help either. Treating affiliates like crap has an effect on everybody.

Nevermind that i am friends with alot of people you owe money to and its human nature to not want friends to be ripped off.

How you cannot think of examples like these by yourself and actually have to ask me says alot.

And you know what, even if it didn't affect me, i would still have an opinion and try to help people out in order to promote change.

Everyday, everyone gives opinions on things that dont have any immediate effect on them. Again, its human nature. Doesn't make their opinions hold any less weight. If anything, the opinions of those that aren't directly affected are less biased
