I state VERY clearly on the Affilaite signup page "Earn a 50% commission on every Ccbill signup and all rebills thereafter."

It's right at the top. I'm not hiding anything. How much clearer could it be.. should I make it flash and dance around? People are just pissing about the little things. The amount of sales gotten by the other processors is so little that I don't even check the stats. And since the affiliates account for so little of the actual membership my site has it's really a non issue with me. Like I have said before and will say again. I have my affilaite program setup the way I WANT IT. if you don't like it and can find the same stuff to promote then do so. Shaving? Nope. Giving the affiliate a chance to make money off the correct type of traffic. Yup. I'm not in the same boat as a lot of the other "sponsers" out there. They are fighting for affilaites because so many other sponsers have like content. My content is unique. Supply and demand.

I believe Pauls in the same boat, sure there's a lot of that type of stuff out there, but his stuff is beautiful and sells itself. Not many actually compare side by side. Affialites should be happy he's giving them a chance to promote it and make money of his amazing work.
