ARS Rocks!

Awesome program that converts!

1. Minusonebit does come off as a crazy loon that is out to simply start drama.

2. Minusonebit could have easily brought this to ARS's attention in PRIVATE (like true professionals do)...but he obviously didn't cause he thrives on the drama and he needs something to blog about. Minusonebit you are 100000% in the wrong about all this and the way u handled it. You simply prooved everyone's opinion about u rather than actually helping webmasters.

3. It seems that ARS Bryan went out of his way to help minusonebit and then got back stabed. I can understand why ARS Bryan is mad. Getting bothered on a sunday about an idiot affiliate would piss anyone off! Especially when it's a needy webmaster that's buggged u from day 1. And the thread/post Minus made was COMPLETELY idiotic and shows his lack of industry knowledge.

4. I agree that name calling does look unprofessional. ARS is 100% in the right to ban this affiliate. They are 100% in the right to even post it on GFY/JBM etc.. It does in fact let others know what a loonatic minusonebit is......BUT it should have been done without the name calling.

My personal opinion is that the big big companies in adult look 100% more professional and in the end will come out on top when the personal name calling is left out and things are left strictly business...IMHO

But at the same time AFF has been in drama threads... Serge is all about the drama....RonLevi, BradShaw, 12clicks and other successful people have all had there share of unprofessional drama threads. So drama might not exactly be a bad thing. Seems like epiccash was completely built on Trey's drama. So a thread like this most likely simply helps ARS get more attention and sales and really doesn't look unproffesional to most people.

So MY personal opinion is that Bryan is in the wrong by acting childish and name calling....BUT he's 1000000000% right in his banning and posting about it...I simply would have liked to see a "proffessional" type press release way of posting about it rather than the typical "haha fuck u" type of response....but like I've said, virtually every big company is guilty of doing the same thing at one point or another. And I might act in the SAME exact way..so who am I to judge..

But in the end.. ARS ROCKS! They have AWESOME affiliate support. They are a VERY honest company that's been around forever and have a great reputation. I would recommend them to anyone! How ONE single employee acts on a webmaster board shouldn't be an indication of the whole company.

So fuck minusonebit....and everyone get ur ARS links up!
