    We need a union or something...

    Something like it anyway. A collection of smaller and medium sized (large too, a lot of big names are very honest) webmasters banding together to leverage a bit and deal with shit like shaving. I think there is a current tendancy for big names to laugh everything of that everyone is a nobody... perhaps if instead of just one webmaster capable of sending them 50 or 100 signups a month it was 400 they might listen and be a bit more respectful and think twice before fucking us over.

    Jus my two cents.

      that will just create a second group of people to fuck you over and cut deals with the sponsors... NO way would I support a webmaster union.

      Amen

        Isn't that the truth.

          i guess that's where the "or something" comes in. I'm no fan of unions myself but seriously, at the least some central place where a record is kept of who got caught doing what giving full names, addresses, phone numbers, corporate names, aliases etc. so people can avoid being fucked by them in the future. I notice GFY does this pretty well but in a more disorganised way.

                Yeah, I think I would agree now that I think more about it. In one of the most crooked industries ever, that's probably what would happen to any "conventional union". God, there's got to be something to do though...? this is a lot of shit and I find it kind of scary that these people even THOUGHT they could get away with it.

                    Then many upstanding webmasters wouldn't join. Remember Hoffa?

                        I don't know any other webmaster that I would trust to represent me.

                        I'll take my chances with the shavers.
