"We were offered a better score by The Best Porn if we were willing to reduce our price for their surfers."
Interesting since Rick just said "Do we ask for exclusive pricing? Absolutely not. We're not asking the affiliate program to do something special only for us. If they want to give all their affiliates the same opportunity, then that's cool. To us, it's easiest when it's built into the affiliate program (like Flynt, Pimp Roll, and a few others)."
I smell bullshit but I don't know where it's coming from.

We were offered a better score by The Best Porn if we were willing to reduce our price for their surfers. I'll be honest, that pissed me off. Here they are trying to be all ethical & filled with integrity, yet behind the scenes they are trying to make deals that have nothing to do with a site's quality & true rating. Wouldn't we be fucking over our longtime members that have been paying $29.95 per month for years if we gave TBP surfers a discounted price? Wouldn't we also be fucking over our affiliates that have been supporting us for over 8 years? Thanks, but no thanks, not interested in any bullshit & behind the scene deals to improve our ratings. We've got more integrity than that.
