Send to the company that makes you the most money. Don't tell your kid someday he will have less money for college because some guy on a message board pissed you off.

Except that the choice isn't between someone who p*sses you off on a message board but makes you money and someone who doesn't do either. There are plenty of people around who don't p*ss me off AND with whom I can earn money.
This "board persona" crap is exactly that. To maintain a persona it must reflect something of yourself and it certainly reflects the audience to which you want to appeal. If someone wants to pull in newbie affiliates straight off the short bus, that is up to them. But to me that says a lot of negative things about them and their program.
But the fact is that I
would take less money if that were the only way to work with people who handle themselves professionally. They are easier to work with and they are the ones who are going to be around for long-term.
