Are you kidding me? Anyone who actually cares about being shaved is too busy whining about it to actually do something to better their financial situation or solve the problem.
How often do you hear program owners complain about shaving?

that's not the point Sly
the fact that they lie to you about your $ and ratio shouldnt be tolerated
How can you prove that it occurs? Other then having their machines seized and looked at?
Shaving happens in lots of different ways though, from skimming x% of clicks off the top (I believe one sponsor recently was caught doing this), not counting joins, sending your foreign hits to dialers.
There are other ways i'm not thinking of right now.
would you all agree that if we were to prove it to a company, they should either be put to jail or be forced to pay a huge penalty fine to all of their affiliates?
I am satisfied that it would fall under some criminal violation...the difficulty is obtaining tangible evidence that a DA would be willing to take to court.

everyone probly does in some way but it shouldnt matter, if you cant trust someone to handle your traffic then its time to start your own paysites.
So when you are at the checkout of any store and the cashier only gives you 80% of what's in your basket - But still charges you the full price, you'll be happy to pay?

If you mean present a DA with enough evidence that he can take to court (not prove it to a company)...the answer then is yes as regards jail. As far as paying affiliates that would be a civil court not a criminal court.

"I try to make a habit of bouncing my eyes up to the face of a beautiful woman, and often repeat “not mine” in my head or even verbally. She’s not mine. God has her set aside. She’s not mine. She’s His little girl, and she needs me to fight for her by keeping my eyes where they should be."
In some cases I think it could, but the 2 problems you are going to run into is:
1. Real Proof, just look at the 100s of thread on shaving and I've yet to see any real proof that could hold up in court...
2. Finding a DA that wants to prosecute the case, we are porn peddlers and most people would think it's what we deserve... Even if we are getting screwed by other porners...Just the way it is!

A DA that wouldn't want to put a porn program operator in jail? Not to mention the civil suit.
By the way, if I wanted to prove I was being shaved I would.

Five years ago we went through the same problems with companies shaving and re-directing hits and unless you want to spend many hours of your valuable time testing sponsors adding up hits which even if you find a sponsor who you know is 100% shaving , you will have a hard time proving it.
Why not swap to promoting affiliate and partnership programs. In our tests we found overall we made 30% more $$ with Partnership programs than with pay per sign up. You have to find a program with good sites that retain well . But by doing this we now have more time to get traffic and spend no time worrying about shaving.

I fucking doubt it very much
dude if u had any traffic you would know it happens and that you cant do shit, we are talking about online porn not a supermarket stop making cross comparisons, are you willing to drop a good sponsor that brings in that big cheque for u at the end of the month just because some people with 1000 hits a month complain about shaving and it may be true, hell no. u stink with whatever makes you the most despite what may go on.

Sooner or later it will happen, but everyone seems to be ok with it just as long as the checks are fat. Strange! Like I said if it was brick and mortar it cant happen. The net has enabled ALOT of people to go into biz who would otherwise work for someone at a 9-5 job. Truth be told WE all know it happens just some would rather deny it for some reason or another. Prove it's not happening. Ya right

Well, since I have been running my own programme since 1996 - And do not rely for one cent from other sponsors - I guess large spnsor cheques do not come my way - (My choice)But I have been there and done that and I fully know what goes on -
And - If I were relying on selling my traffic to make a living - I would only send it to where I knew the sponsor was being honest -
You only think $$$'s first - I Only think integrity first -
