This is wrong for 2 reasons:

1- if the unregistered user is on your whitelabel (non-chaturbate domain) and clicks on the broadcaster's aff link (chaturbate domain), the first cookie planted on the chaturbate domain is the broadcaster's. It seems to me in this case the original referrer gets a raw visit hit, but no chance to convert.

2- as seen above, some broadcasters who appear on the top row on a regular basis are actively re-assigning existing members essentially moving them from you to them.

I'm happy to be proven wrong
I really dont mind when they post their affiliate link on their Bio, seriously.

What i do mind is that they OBVIOUSLY ask members to sign up under a new account, clean cookies and stuff before it, so they get the rev-share. I also mind this picture that i quoted above, its PLAIN STEALING (like ianmoone332000 already said)

And you know what bothers me the most? That we haven't had any updates from Steve yet, yet he is in this thread and seems to ignore this post above with the Efetishism Picture?
