Why is this not even mentioned on your promotion page either? The page that you link to from this thread.
You are trying to hide the fact that you will not pay PPS for
every customer who has purchased access in the past. I have been in this industry long enough to know that this is not standard procedure with affiliate programs, as you claim. Who are you kidding? Maybe you re-invented the PPS model?
I am just digging this out for everyone to see because I don't think that it is fair to lure in new affiliates based on false promises.
I stand by my words that it is "
shaving affiliates". You have even explained how you do in your FAQ.
Thanks for reminding me of GFY rules. I am well aware of them, and everyone who can read can see that I am right.
What does making a test-signup prove?
I haven't bought access to your site in the past, so of course my own test-signup would be counted correctly.
It is
shaving when you say that "AWE is giving you $222 PPS for
every LiveJasmin.com signup" when you
don't.

I cannot understand why such a huge company like AWE has to survive by fucking over affiliates? You have one of the most well-known chat sites on the planet and still you need to do such cheap tricks to get new affiliates. Of course the
new affiliates will not earn much because most potential customers have
already bought access in the past and thus not "eligible for payout" as hidden in your terms. So you want the new affiliates to send you signups without earning commission.
