    Just to keep it light in here...

    For newbies that don't know all the technical terms, I'll repost a bit from my handy "newbie dictionary".

    If getting laid was like selling memberships to pornsites....

    Making a trial sale = she gives you a hand job
    Making a full sale = getting laid
    Upsell = You get to use the poop chute too
    Getting a cross sell = she lets your friend fuck her too, now he owes you a 3some with his chick
    One-click crosssell = introducing her to your friend, while she's naked in your bed, before she cums
    Prechecked cross sell = all your friends fuck her after she passes out

    CCbill scrub = Ron is there handing out brochures about promiscuity and STDS
    Low CCbill scrub = Ron points out all the slutty chicks
    High CCbill scrub = Ron tells everyone you have VD

    CCbill and Epoch share the negative scrub list = all the infected chicks in the bar are clearly marked

    You have freaky, kinky, crazy, interracial sex = CCbill pays via Epassporte
    Abra-cadabra!

I was still a bit surprised that he actually did that much though, in response to a cross-sell thread. I don't think dialog between those who want to participate is a bad thing, enough to warrant making it personal.
          I wouldn't normally, he initiated it though. He brought it to the boards before speaking to me over icq. It was already out there and not by me.

          Without question, I enjoy the various threads regarding PPS, Revshare, cross sales, etc. I enjoy Airek's opinions, Dave's opinions, Steve, etc.

          However, these guys tend to debate without any real agenda. If you start a thread whereas you hope to persuade potential affiliates to stop promoting programs due to cross sales and you brand them as having malicious billing systems, then you yourself should be prepared to come under the microscope.

          As I stated before, I have sent more traffic to rev share than PPS. I also enjoy the debates; I find them informative.

          The point of this is:

          1) NOFX does want to send to PPS programs that have cross sales. And he can't follow the term of service when he does. Spamming myspace is not "caring about the surfers."

          2) All billing models are subject to criticism. Using another's billing model as fuel for your marketing propaganda is wrong. But if you intend to market this way, please be prepared for threads such as this one.

          All's fair IMO. This thread was simply a reality check.

              I have to admit, your spelling of infallible made me laugh as it was totally appropriate in this case. Don't know if it was intentional or not, but thanks for the laugh.

                          wow boring. such slanted and biased hate/drama its laughable. It's very interesting to see that I stirred such negativity from simply exposing the truth, what does that show us about your motives behind having prechecked cross sales? hrmm....why are you so angry? hiding something? mad because I made you look like the greedy company that you truely are? profit over people eh? nice.

                          also you can see how professional and business like Cory is in handling criticism, he will post personal affil. info about you in a thread that he starts in response to another thread which has NOTHING to do with him personally, me or my traffic.

                          siccash = shok
                          shok = used to work for weg
                          all work/used to work for weg = gabe, cory, shok, peaches, rrred
                          weg = g3x = adultalchemy
                          all tied together in a way. hrmm...

                          way to use teamwork fellas. the good ole boys network to spin the sheep.

                          you guys never cease to amaze me.

                          way to go Cory and rest of WegCash crew!! go back to running your haven for dirty traffic.

                          let's bump this all night. still doesnt change the fact that said sponsors use questionable and sneaky tactics to drain more money out of unaware or unattentive surfers.

                            Whoa! Keep me out of this please. I'm not sure you understand the side of the fence that I am on. Of course I'm not against Weg or anything. I have nothing but great memories working with them for almost 4 years.

                            I was the first of your list that worked for WEG when they were only known as Join4free. I left approximately when the paysites were finished and we were doing Join4free Gold and then by the time we evolved into Wegcash, I moved forward with other things. G3X was developed later on.. and then Adult alchemy.

                            I've absorbed alot of info, numbers, business practices from many corners of this industry and I CHOSE to get cozy here at XXXRewards. In fact, I turned down probably 20 job offers and starved for 4 months to ensure that I could get comfy promoting the type of sites and program that I think will ultimately outlive all other programs.

                            There is nothing wrong with xsells, consoles, optin emails blah blah blah. Each company does what works for them for what they think will make them the most money. That's not my business or my problem.

                            My personal comfort and beliefs hold strong here on the side of the fence where quality content collections and spoiling members comes first... Patience and persistance has pulled the Karups crew where they are, and there is only room for even more growth.

                            Please retract my name from comments about dirty traffic and questionable sneaky tactics. Anyone who knows me KNOWS that's not what I stand for... That is a fact.

                              you drug yourself into it rrred.

                              dont even pretend you didnt icq me with some petty taunting rub-it-in-your-face type bullshit after I made that thread. you can stick up for your ex biz friends and associates all you want, I just want to make sure everyone knows the connection(s).

                              you reap what you sow.

                                Good job, nothing was ever hidden, therfore you exposed nothing.

                                I will agree with you on this

                                  Well you know the old saying "cross sells are evil but not letting them cancel is divine" How long has that been that way? Just curious.

                                      90% of the time revshare programs will make u less money than PPS programs
                                      in some rare cases revshare program might make u 10% more than a PPS program, but your earnings will be spread out over many many months.

                                      if you're a newbie reading this thread
                                      write this shit down on your monitor and only promote PPS programs.

If we are going to live in Glass Houses, it may well be a good time to remind everyone that the conventional rebilling models have come under as much fire as cross sales themselves have.

                                        Does Adult Mega Cash auto-rebill the surfer, or are they on a moral high-ground whereas they email the surfers reminders? Answer, they auto rebill.

                                        But hey, no big deal, canceling is simple enough:

                                        Lets look over the process.

                                        I would say it is pretty hard to cancel a membership to a page not found.


                                        Now I thought I would go over to the affiliate program and ask for some help, as it does say they have "experienced marketing associates."

                                        Apparently, "experienced marketing associates" are people that post racist remarks on business chat forums and well, rip off other affiliate programs with fraudulent joins.

                                        We have cancelled him three times, however, let it be known that I still allowed him to be payed out. I used some of our cross sale funds, pretty empowering.

                                        I guess NOFX's martyrdom for not promoting programs with cross sales is rather new. However, with the rap sheet I got on him, I doubt he will have a tough time not promoting all these programs he called out.
                                        Nice work Cory.

                                          this beef is just between me and Cory. something personal and dep. he obviously has some issues regarding me. a vendetta he has been holding for a while, not really sure what it's about being as I have only talked to him ONCE via icq.

                                          i'd really love to know.

                                          Often times I wonder why
                                          There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                          When sickness comes I must decide:
                                          When feelings go, theres suicide.

                                            Why would someone have to email you about it? It's right here in the thread.

                                            Your information on who is associated with whom is laughable.

                                            Cross sells have been around for years. If they were causing so many problems the chargeback issues would be huge and ergo any company that wanted to remain in business would have elimated them a long time ago.

                                            Follow the dots.....they are earning money for the program, the affiliate and the surfer isn't pissed or they would charge back.

                                            I love revshare. Revshare does great on niche sites and on single girl sites as you can make a LOT of money on recurring for niche and solo girls. But PPS with high payouts is my choice for a "mega" program.

                                              i talked to ruth and then the next day she shuts down my accts ? wtfux ... just because I didnt have a URL listed on my account info...

                                              not fun..i've been sending traffic years before Ruth even worked for fuckin' weg....

                                              icq'd cory and ruth....nothing...
                                              You posted a personal fraud email on the boards. That email was to you, not the webmaster community in general. You brought it to the boards, I didn't. However I did have to respond to why we cancelled you.

                                              As far as having a personal issue with you, I don't. I think it is great that you have opinions, I enjoy reading everyone's opinions. But it isn't fair for you to condemn major programs and accuse us of "not caring for the surfers" and term them "thieves" when the program you work for has a broken cancellation process and you spam Myspace. I don't care that much about either incident, in fact, if you recall, I offered to allow you to open a new account with Weg, you refused that. I also paid you.


                                              No business model is this industry is perfect, we are all far from it. The debates are great, however, posting program names and trying to gather support to boycott them is a little ridiculous. Keep the debates within a professional framework. If you choose not to, don't be upset if others play by your standards.

                                              And I hardly ever talk to Shok or Reddd.

                                              Seriously, I have no hard feelings towards you whatsoever.
