With your join date you ought to know why many assume everyone shaves by default. Because people have been caught. Hell, MPA2 even had a shave module and from what I understand it was one of the first things sponsors saw when logging in. The thing about that is how many honest sponsors came to the boards to tell affiliates about the shave module? Show of hands please? Any links to posts?
Now you see why many affiliates assume the worst. But if that's not enough there are programmers here in the industry who have admitted that one of the most popular things they are asked for is a way to shave when building custom software.
The truth is not everyone shaves. But it can be tough to find honest sponsors when it's so easy to steal and not get caught. And it can change. I'm sure I'm not the only affiliate who has done great with a sponsor and then suddenly with no warning their conversions went to shit as if someone flipped a switch. And they ALL say they don't shave. Even the ones who were caught. You can find someone from Mansion productions even joking about charging for a shave module right before it came out on the boards many years ago. PIBcash? I think I recall one of the reps writing "We DON'T shave. NEVER." with emphasis. Of course.....
