I doubt most people really sit around all day wondering who's shaving...their time is probably more or less spent trying to find who's going to give them the most for their traffic.

But to just brush it off as you do IMO is just not understandable.
OK, well try to understand this, I'll go slowly.

I dont personally care if someone shaves 90% of inbound hits and 90% of signups. I don't care if they pay 25 bucks a join or 250 bucks a join.

I've never cared, I learned that in this business about the first 15 days I was in this business.

The only thing I care about if I am sending out traffic is how much I am being paid for it.

Quite frankly some of the biggest shavers from a historical perspective paid out the most for traffic when you cashed your checks.

As for this misconception that you'd make more if sponsors didn't shave, it's WRONG.

You'd be paid less per join and the end result would be the same.

Go ahead and tie to me to a stake and get the kerosene out if you like, but resellers have brought this on themselves. Most of them know in their minds that traffic is only worth so much, but you feed a frenzy with sponsors constantly having to say they'll pay more per join to keep up with the guy that just did it yesterday.

Just remember that sponsors DO NOT NEED resellers. Resellers CANNOT live without sponsors. Sales and traffic would still be around if there were not one reseller left on the planet.

Y'all don't believe me? You watch what's coming from some of the BIG companies.

Sleazy has the right idea. You pick a few people you do well with and that's how you make your money. I'll bet a hundred bucks this industry learns that lesson the hard way over the next six months.
