:mad Wegcash GONE !

just got this schoolgirl bitching email about tubes

Quote:
Today?s communication with our affiliates comes after much deliberation, as well as a heavy heart. After 10 years, and millions of dollars in affiliate payouts, Wegcash has decided that the continuation of the affiliate program is no longer sustainable. Therefore, we will no longer be accepting referrals effective May 21st, at 4PM PST.

The reasons, many of which are obvious to all of us, revolve around the decline in membership revenue. The continued proliferation of free adult videos has spawned a market which does not support an affiliate program. This communication should in no way be interpreted as an industry, political or ethical stance, nor should it be deemed dispiritedness; rather, we choose to look at this as a time to embrace the future.

While our company is closing one door, we are working steadfastly on new opportunities. While we could all engage in the revisionist history of "what ifs," events leading up to the current free tube models aren't negotiable; we are better served focusing on the future. We also feel that energy is better served realizing the true successes that our affiliate program brought to us, and to our thousands of wonderful affiliates (without whom we would never have achieved the success we did).

The gravity of this announcement is in no way lost on our company?s staff, from executives and programmers, to its owners. The Wegcash brand was conceived by two passionate and driven entrepreneurs. Throughout the years, its continued prosperity is attributable to the hard working staff members, past and present, who stayed late, came in early, and passionately put their heart and soul into the product. It is also very much attributable to the thousands of affiliates that entrusted our brand with their business.

While today undoubtedly is revealing in terms of the current market, it?s also the lore for the successful future.

Our sincerest thanks to each and every one of you for the past decade of fruition,
so any alternative programs I can clickjack ?

True dat.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. I would be as high as 30% or more will be gone, announce major changes, or be bought/sell out. As well, many affiliates will leave this industry.

I hear you..!

We have given up completely on LCNCash. After years of work and a handful of decent tools it simply wasn't bringing in nearly enough revenue. Yesterday we scrapped all the tools and just went to a simple page with a few simple banners, and encourage the affiliates create their own tools. No hosted anything, no video clips, none of that. Just Click here to sign-up, here's your link, bye".

The only extra thing we are adding is a dynamic banner that changes depending on who is logged in at the time. It's in beta but it works well. We'll put up the full release in a day or so, and then thats it! No more money spent on tools for our cash program.

The program closures will be due to the end of cross-sales, not tubes. Everyone got used to $100 PPS, and no one will want to go back now to the old rates now. Without cross-sales, those high PPS wont be sustainable.

you can read ? what else can you do my friend ? Can you touch your nose with your tongue ?

Do you sit on your penis until it goes numb, and stick it up your asshole, and orgasm because it feels like a stranger's dick going up your asshole ?

Who cares about the losers that are exiting the stage?

The op, and others here, are more interested in knowing who are the players that are still sitting at the table.
