I think about 90% of adult affiliates from 2005 have left. Would you agree?

Funny it's not just adult affiliates (or the industry) who suffer from the lack of unity. I was just reading this on Wikipedia the other day:

Quote:
Online forums and industry trade shows are one of the only means for the different members from the industry?affiliates/publishers, merchants/advertisers, affiliate networks, third-party vendors, and service providers such as outsourced program managers?to congregate at one location. Online forums are free, enable small affiliates to have a larger say, and provide anonymity. Trade shows are often cost-prohibitive to small affiliates because of the high price for event passes. Larger affiliates may even be sponsored to attend by an advertiser they promote.

Because of the anonymity of online forums, the quantitative majority of industry members are unable to create any form of legally binding rule or regulation that must be followed throughout the industry. Online forums have had very few successes as representing the majority of the affiliate marketing industry. The most recent example of such a success was the halt of the "Commission Junction Link Management Initiative" (CJ LMI) in June/July 2006, when a single network tried to impose the use of a Javascript tracking code as a replacement for common HTML links on its affiliates.[32]
