    Is TCG Ripping off Webmasters?

    I was just about to get an account & start sending some janet hits over...when while testing out join links and seeing how it works...I noticed something kinda fishy...


    please explain if I'm wrong, which I hope I am...


    I got to the join page of secretcelebs....filled out the first part with a webmaster link noticeable in the top...however I put that I was from algeria, and got to the second page, when it showed me a completely diff site, and when I mousedover on the links it had someone else's ref code in it!!!???


    So, basically I guess my question is, does TCG only payout for US/UK/CA signups to their webmasters?

    Or am I on crack today and not seeing straight....






    I hear many people love them, and do great biz, I'm just confused how this traffic leak has not been brought up before or if it's just an industry 'standard' to do this...

                    Brad Shaw told us that we should only use PPC sponsors.
                    He sold his GFY sig for $8k so he must be right
                    I don't use ICQ anymore.

                      thanks man...


                      maybe it's just dialer stuff for countries that they don't feel like processing for...?


                      but still, I know there is a ref code for "someone's" account named

                      realsex23 or 24...keeps changing back and forth


                      had a few friends test this for me this morning and am seeing the same thing...


                      one of the sites it gets redirected to is vanillateenblackcream...that also changes from time to time from what others are telling me as well...

                        I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                        I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                                Weren't you the one who said that he doesn't care if a sponsor shaves, the bottom line is what counts the most.
                                I think TCG is your best sponsor, so you shouldn't be interested in this thead

                                    The ref code is probably a house account.

                                      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.
                                      Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
                                      Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                            What do you think? The "glitch" is probably being corrected.

                                                  I have had great experiences with tcg for many years, this month the conversion has become more than 4 x worse. I am expecting it to level out though, as I said they are very reliable.

                                                                I personally like MrSkin's celeb site, but he's not quite as fast at jumping ontop of the LATEST events by putting up a banner or link or something so it makes it easier for us to convert...

                                                                I respect his wishes not to participate in the Paris thing, but I thought he would go for it with the Janet dealio...but as I checked the front of his page today, I'm still seeing no link or image or anything about Janet






                                                                so, anyone else have any good celeb/janet sponsors to share with the class?

                                                                                        I think TCG is your best sponsor, so you shouldn't be interested in this thead
                                                                                        Yes, I don't really concern myself if a sponsor is shaving. I care about the amount on the check at the end of the period. If the sponsor I am using is currently making the most then so be it. If you can prove to me that they are shaving and doing so unlawfully, then I'll be interested. But in general, I care about the bottom line based on maximizing revenues.
