My thoughts exactly.

Also, it would be a different story if they told me not to promote them with those keywords when I first started, but I did this for 6 months and got regular payments, until one day they decided to stop paying me WITHOUT telling me to stop. They let me keep sending traffic without saying a word. Especially in these times when there are less and less affiliates, you would think they would be happy to have an affiliate sending legitimate sales.

I'll give them to the end of the week to make this right.
