Here is the funniest thing. hornymatches.com is the number #1 bidder on aff and a lot of other big dating sites. Go look at their alexa graph. It looks exactly like the zangocash.com one ;)
Damn, this was some great marketing PR done by Will76. That's a lot of exposure.Comment

I know AFF prefers to call it "occasional colusions with affiliates" or something to that affect.
So what do you call it when someone who is promoting AFF has a surfer with zango on his computer click the link on their site that goes to AFF, and an AFF page pops up over the AFF affiliates page. What in the hell do you call that?
What do you call it when I am promoting ifriends and someone with zango on their pc clicks the link on MY FUCKING WEBSITE and AFF shit pops up over my ifriends page. YOu are not stealing??? what are you doing, borrowing my fucking traffic ?
I can't believe you are going to make comments like this and stupid threads like this.

really Where Exactly Did I Lie ?
Or are you just anoher shill gfy account who is someone witha personal axe to grind and find this an easy bandwagon to jump aboard ?
By the way your profile says Myspace in it did you know that the biggest installer of adware is Myspace. This is where the Think people Think comes in to play. if you do not like Adware you must stop using Google and Yahoo and myspace, plus Cingular phones and dell computers and netflix, because they all advertise on adware.
If you think Zango is "adware" then you are the biggest sheep of all believing zango's shit. I guess 1/2 the people who have zango on their pcs that say they don't know how it got there must have " added it " intentionally.ICQ: 86364801 Email: will [at] innovativeassets [dot] com

oh i get it...http://lippard.blogspot.com/2006/03/...e-netflix.html
Stop using netflix immediately and any travel site on the internet.
We are sheep because you were singled out for using "adware" but a lot of other sites were not.
So you are basically saying, why stop using me because everyone else is doing it. Or if you are not going to stop using them, then would you stop using me?
Since netflix doesn't post here and i doubt anyone advertises for them, what would be the point for us to bash netflix or any travel site ?
You however post here, your company runs serveral contest and advertisements here, and a lot of people here promote you company. And you are in adult, which all of us are. So it is only logical you will receive more heat HERE then netflix and travel sites would receive HERE.

if its such a small percentage how is zango making millions per year? and why are program owners unwilling to give up the supposidly small income stream despite the bad name being affiliated with such a company gives them? it just doesn't add up.It's less than 0.5%. Factor in that only about 10%, if that, actually click on the pop up and NOT close it. So given those numbers we are talking about 0.05%. Now let's factor in the amount of traffic let's say an average affiliate sends to the total traffic. Probably less than 1%. So that number comes close to 0.0005%. So if you are making $500/year you might lose 25 cents for that year!! If these numbers don't look right please discuss them.you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..Comment

I don't follow the logic.
You are soooooooooooooo worried about losing sales to sexsearch. You claim you would lose "x" money to sexsearch if you stopped using "adware
". So you lose say "x".
To help try to improve the image of AFF (and lure the sheep back) you will pay "x" more in signups to people.
So you still lose money. The money you make from zango you need to pay out in higher comissions to cover damage control.
Why not just stop doing business with zango in the first place and keep comissions where they are ? you still basically net the same. You claim you are the best and have the highest payouts, so no need to pay more. You would make a lot more in the long run because you wouldn't be losing affiliates because of your association with "adware
". And you would be doing the fucking right thing by helping to fight the problem instead of being a part of the problem, wouldn't that be nice, to do the right thing. We know AFF makes over 100million a year, you have a ton of money, wouldn't it be nice to have something that money can't buy, Integrity? and to be able to go to bed at night knowing you are not fucking people. All for the cost of a couple pennies (if that) compared to what you make.
I could almost sympothize with the person (almost) who has nothing and would do something shady to put food on the table. But i have not ounce of sympothy for the person who already has millions who is doing something shaddy so he can buy another trophy car, or whatever.

Targeting pop up pages that will pop up over your affiliates with your pop up page to AFF. So your affiliates traffic will be diverted to your page when they signup and you affiliate will not get credit for the sale.
Targeting other sites that many people here advertise so your popup will come up come up on top of the page we are trying to send our paid traffic to.
Buying popups is when you buy traffic from sites that generate their own traffic and they sell pop up pages off of their own site. These sites generated the traffic and have the right tosell it.
THE PERSON IS LEAVING THE SITE AND A POP UP COMES UP. WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS POPING UP A PAGE OVER MINE WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO GO TO THE SIGNUP PAGE OF THE SITE I AM ADVERTISING.

You missed the posts where he was running around trying to say how low the percentage was of people with Zango, trying to imply it wasn't really effecting anyone..

sooo using this same logic it would be ok for AFF to shave if it puts it on page 10 of the TOS. The affiliate should have read it, dumb ass it is his fault now. We have a license to steal and prey on the not so smart people.with free email providers you get the benefit of being able to send and recieve emails without any cost to you. what benefit do the people who install the zango toolbar get?
the surfer has agreed sure, and thats why people can get away with it but you know damn well people don't read terms, be it surfers or webmasters signing up to a program. like i said, i haven't installed these things but i have been promted to many times, by many other companies than just zango and the yes/no panel looks just like it would when agreeing to download flash or a codec.
good business ehtics at it's finest.

As there are no laws to protect AFF in these situations then they have to protect themselves.
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?
yes there are LAWS. Aff is trademark. There is several case law where trademarks have sued "adware" companies for doing exactly this and won.
I mentioned this to lars several times. He said a lawsuit would be too expensive and not worth it. He has the legal means to stop zango from doing this. But obviously he does not want to stop.
fucking bullshit, 100 million dollar a year company with team of inhouse attornies can't sue to protect their own trademark... " no it's too expensive"

It's because Lars is full of shit.. Yea really think if is was some chump change amount he would want to take this much flack? Besides that we just know about zango, but what other places like this might he be buying traffic that's doing the same thing?
I'm sure it's pretty damn profitable for him to buy traffic from zango and others like it vs paying out the sales to the affiliates whom actually sent the traffic.
But it's all good just do a big payout weekend, give away a laptop or two and sponsor a party and he's all good. He'll be a stand up guy again in no time.In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.Comment

lets see... you got caught stealing from affiliates who are working hard to send you traffic. it took you a couple days to respond ... a response that wasn't even drafted by you... your position was basically "uhm... its perfectly legal" "some people call it adware" and "we have to do it.. sorry for fucking you over" and you did absolutely nothing about addressing peoples concerns who are busting their ass to make you money.
now you are reduced to insulting peoples intelligence as a diversion and raising payouts and hoping that people will forget the whole thing.
the only "sheep" are the people who kiss your ass after you got caught stealing their traffic and basically said "uhm yeah!?!? so what?"

It's a small percentage but we are talking about a small % of the entire Internet and I honestly think a program owners first reason to make a stand against it would be to honor the sheep on the board and get some free PR. Some of the largest and most recognized mainstream and real word companies use or have used Zango. Basically, Zango has been around for a logn time doing exactly what they are doing right now. The only reason people are bitching now is because the sheep are being misled by someone who doesn't know what he is talking about.Comment

Then to get shocked when some skimming might occur. I think for everything to be 100% on the up and up. You would have to be willing to do your own hosting and making $15 a sale recurring.Comment

I've never been to a sponsor party and don't ever plan to go to any. I could care less about high payouts but rather high conversions. I've also never used free hosting from any affiliate program.
I take care of myself and don't expect anyone else to do anything for me. What I do expect is legit programs to send my traffic to, that actually convert.In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.Comment

All I said is to be surprised when it happens when most want the big numbers that are thrown around is crazy. Also free hosting must be a big deal because if it wasnt it wouldnt be offered. Im not saying its right and I dont agree with it but 30 bucks a sign up can only go so far around.Comment

Most affiliates don't even go to the parties muchless give a shit about them. Most people do not care about any of the shit you mentioned, the ones that do care are the ones that aren't making any money anyway.

naive ? so good business is to not protect your trademark but instead give money to the people are who infringing on it. Yes, (says the naive one) what lars has done here the last 3 weeks has been perfect example "prudent business decissions".
Naive? why trademark something if you are never going to protect it.
BTW, i guess you failed to see the last couple cases that were exactly the same where the "adware" company settled.
Who the fuck you kiddin. How much do you think it is costing AFF because a lot of people don't want to business with them.
BTW, i wont pitty him / AFF for carrying the burden. They choose to carry this burden, they could stop and any time by doing the right thing. No one is forcing him to use "adware", oh wait that's right sexsearch is forcing him to do it.

No I said I didn't want to make myself crazy, also Im a very small fish in the big picture. If you guys can make change your gods in my eyes.When I worked in mainstream I ran the affiliate program, my biggest monthly fight was with the ceo who didnt want pay the affiliates what they were owed. Getting them paid was a monthly fight and he would tell me you think Amazon pays their affiliates?? I would argue you dont pay them they dont send traffic,we are screwed and its wrong.I made deals expecting you to do the right thing So I know this is not only a adult problem.Comment
