With you people it's always "Oh, you lost my "potential" business"

Who gives a shit? I certainly don't. If I annoy you with a post or what not and you never sign up to my program - I could give a fucking shit. I have a lot of webmasters who aren't idiots, who send fantastic traffic and we pay out tons to them. Sure, I risk losing a guy who "May have potentially" sent sales.

Frankly any of us who own programs know how 5/100 webmasters are actually worth a crap. The odds of you actually signing up, placing links, and sending productive enough traffic to send sales is ... well 5% on average from what I have seen in a dozen programs over 5 years in this industry.

GFY no longer produces affiliates, everyone knows that. It is hardly good for branding anymore either. So in all honesty Shap could come here and say anything he wants and I would still push his sites because they kick ass.

I run a legal tube and I am 100% stringent. I use sponsor videos and their links are plastered all around the videos I use. I think that's just "ethical" and it's a win win for me and for my sponsors because they do well. Shap is looking out for his business. He has rules in place that protect him and the tube. It's not his responsibility to force this tube to police OTHER content.

1) I agree stolen content sucks and hurts us
2) But as a business owner I can tell you I would use (ALMOST) any avenue to get business. If redtube approached me, I would consider heavily doing business with them so long as I was not stepping on any toes... just as Shap is doing here.

Tubes have traffic. They are taking over. I see the double edge in doing business with them... but hey they either put your links on your vids, or just fucking steal them. So it's hard.

Anyway, I think it's getting stupid in this thread. 100 idiots with no traffic trying to tell a multi millionaire that he is running his business poorly. Fucking funny.
