If someone came to your house and took your TV and the police wouldn't do anything about it, wouldn't you be justified in taking it back yourself - or do think that would be "stealing" it back?

my issue isnt with the fact that they were bidding on the words. i completely see their reasoning behind that, as a business.
i dont, however, like being called sheep when the company gets called out on it. the people bitching have EVERY RIGHT to be upset, and are actually the exact opposite of sheep.
keeping with the barnyard theme....if the affiliates on this forum are sheep, lars' job is to be the shepherd. to guide them in the direction that his company wants them to go (continue to send AFF traffic). that's all he's doing here, he just has the nerve to actually come out and call everyone sheep.
he's just doing damage control because they got caught and issued a horrible public stance on the whole situation. the sad part is that, if anyone has the resources to fight these people, it's someone the size of AFF. rather than stand up for its affiliates and do what it can, it bends to zango and gives a generic apology to its affiliates.
thats just sad.
