Everyone is pointing at XC for shaving and w/e, but you know it could well have been a glitch (like it happened to many programs before) where the data was not pulled correctly in NATS thus why the discrepancy between the stats reported by NATS and CCBill.

Then NATS calls XC to tell them about the problem - XC is in his car driving from FL to North Carolina because he missed his flight due to the new security measures... He's obviously pissed and has no swift access to internet.

NATS probably goes in saying that the stats are not reporting correctly and affiliates are owed (i.e) $50k in rebills . XC goes wtf, how come your shitty software didn't work properly, wtf is going on... then NATS is all pissed off and wants to rectify the problem right away and wants to adjust the affiliates stats retroactively right now so the affiliates stats show the missing rebills right away.

So XC tells NATS... hey hold your fucking horses, I want to check what's going on - wtf the affiliates gonna think if we do that, don't do fucking shit right now let me think this thru first on how to handle this (and it's his own prerogative as it is his own program and wants to handle shit in a proper way (and most importantly HIS way since it's HIS program).

Then shit happens, NATS is all pissed and is swift to make a comment on the boards because he's offended and doesn't like the fact that XC called them out on their shitty software not reporting the stats correctly - and NATS is all proud to come here and make a statement to get some fame from the community implying they're stadning strong to defend the affiliates against shaving and what not.

It was not NATS place to do what they've done and announce it publicly on forums that quick without waiting a bit to see how things would turn out. A cockfight took place (imho) between NATS and XC when the fuckup was announced to XC by NATS on the phone.
