:stop Turkish traffic and it's consequences

Enough is enough.

I already knew that 50% of my Turkish traffic used to be shitty and shady by continuously asking for charge-backs on every affiliate of mine.

I could deal with it, as long as it was a sporadic event.

Today I checked my historical stats and I found out that my main camsite's affiliate got 71 premium signups from Turkey whom spent a total of $315,72 in a whole 2 years span !!!

Guys, think about it. A $315,72 grand total divided by 71 is an average of $4,5 per user in a whole 2 years time frame !!! Not even the poorest of the poorest would spend such a miserable amount in 24 months.

But here comes the weirdest absurdity: on a total of $315,72 they charged back for $262,12 !!!

They were able to get back over 83% of their miserable coins they presumably spent for no more than few seconds of a cam show.

So I made a decision: I packed a powerful ruleset for Cloudflare's firewall and I banned the whole Turkish country from all of my tubes, white labels, galleries and cam sites for a total of 312 domains.

Sorry Turkish people, you're not welcome anymore.

I highly suggest you to do the same unless you want to get in trouble with your affiliate accounts!
