I know that your program is huge and it would be nearly impossible to keep constant check, but the occasional "Here is a list of scammers that we canned" post would go a great long way toward gaining some harmony among the ranks here.

What you guys have to understand is that small and medium sized operators have a much larger comparative investment of time and resources in their respective programs than does AFF. When we see people ripping content and then partnering with AFF to profit from the work of others is makes people mad. Then you temper that with the sometime flippant attitude of AFF and you get a crucible of emotions. Your statement is a perfect example. You took the time to contact the affiliate and instructed him to get in touch with SpaceDog when what you should have done was simply check the content of both sites and then ban the affiliate if there were evidence of plagiarism. It is not Sagi's place or anyone else?s place to police AFF.

I hate to polarize the issue, but when it comes down to brass tacks AFF is either WITH the community or AGAINST the community. You guys have far more resources and power than most other programs. With greater power comes greater responsibility. Personally I would like to read a thread about how AFF did something WITHOUT there having to be a huge drama-fest first.
