        Having been around since 1996 I would say that shaving was a much bigger issue in the past then what it is now. But that is just my two cents.

        But you are raising another great point there ! Certification system. If you know of a good way of doing this please let me know. I will be their first customer!

        Or if anyone else have some good ideas on how to win back the trust of everyone please let me know.

        Im open for all suggestion !
        If you acted like a grown up, admitted your mistakes instead of blaming them on everybody else, put a encryption feature in mpa3 and make sure that everybody don't shave, you would have trust gained back .

        But you didn't .
        You blamed everybody else, even affiliates.

        If affiliates don't want mpa3, paysites owners won't use it . And right now you are making me hate it even more ... (lots of other guys too).

        I got no doubt that your script is good.

        Your attitude and ethics lacks.

          Actually it's more about the attitude /ethics they have toward things then the script itself .

          mpa2 was a pretty damn good improvement .

            What could we at Mansion do so that you the webmaster would feel absolutely 100% certain that anyone who uses the mpa3 program have no shaving opportunities what so ever ?

            We have added the clickthrouth, but I am willing to go even further. Just let me know what you would like. I am open for all suggestions!

            Now this is a challenge to you guys. You have the opportunity to make a win win situation here.

            PRIZE: $1 000 to the person that come up with the best suggestion.

            RULES:
            #1. It must be accepted by the webmaster community.
            #2. It must be possible to do.

            So now you have the chance. Im open for all suggestion
            1st : Make lensman close this thread
            2nd : Start a thread, saying you apologize ... and don't try to take anything away from what you guys did, writing a shave feature.

            It dosen't matter if 1 or 1000 webmasters used it, it was still there .
            3rd : Make EVERYTHING you can to stop shaving in the next features. .. you are the programmers, think about it .

            You guys had kickass ideas . you just went too far with the shave script ...

            and acting the way you did toward it (not taking the responsability for your action), won't make people trust you

                  No, he does not. Also, he gets no money from us for promoting us. The only way he sees income from promoting NATS is that he uses it himself on RealityCash.

                    Sorry, that is actually not correct. Just because you do not understand how to make money off of traffic does not mean everyone that does has to shave.

                    There are many ways to make enough money to pay $30 per trial signup.

                      Saying he dosen't understand how to make money from traffc is kinda wrong. He's pretty good at it :P

                        Just to set the record straight... Kman certainly does know a thing or two about turning traffic into cash... and I am sure you are familiar with what people do to get those numbers to be able to pay high PPS; who can forget those using overly aggressive upsells which bring out the FTC for things like pre-checked sales to other sites?

                          Yes, I know Kman knows a thing or two about traffic. And he still claims more than $25 is impossible without shaving. Weird when I see it happen every day.

                          And there are ways to do so without overly aggressive cross sells. And it does not involve shaving.

                            Yes, I know that. Imagine how much he could make if he knew even more...

                            $30 per signup IS possible if you know how to maximize per-member profits. Thats all I am saying.

                              Maybe, but a lot of people do a lot of things that hurt the industry a lot to get that 5-10 $ more a signupi

It is YOU the webmasters that have created the need for having such a thing! You are the ones that are always sending your traffic to the company that offers the most per signups. And the only way to pay anyone $100 per signups is to be able to adjust the stats.
                                    What a horrible thing to say. You are acknowledging that sponsors using MPA2/MPA3 are shaving their affiliates. Do you realize you just discouraged every webmaster with half a brain cell from promoting sponsors using MPA2/MPA3 software? Do you think your clients appreciate that?

                                    What does this statement mean, that you have removed the shave feature in MPA3?

                                    Well if not, I recommend you seriously consider removing it. Else, you will not be able to compete with NATS.

                                        And there are ways to do so without overly aggressive cross sells. And it does not involve shaving.
                                        I am not going to disagree with you. In fact, I agree but...

                                        I also happen to know some hookers that have hearts of gold.

                                        Regardless, I have learned these lessons the hard way. We won an injunction, a nearly impossible remedy to obtain, against a so-called trustworthy program that was using our tour to direct signups to their own competing site.

                                        My point is that I don't care who uses NATS or how fraud free it was built. I just know that using NATS, or MPA2 or 3 does not make a company honest or dishonest. There are many ways to commit fraud in spite of any of that.

                                        I have no reason to say NATS is or is not a great product. I will take it on faith that it is. After our tribulations, I just don't have the same confidence in human nature. Unfortunately.

I send my clients to NATS every time instead of you. in fact I think I just talked ANOTHER one of your customers into NATS.

                                            Any time someone starts pointing any sort of blame then they better be ready for someone else to say "he who smelt it dealt it".

                                            And one last useless opinion dished up by me before heading out...

                                            If you have a great product then just focus on selling that and not selling someone else's problems. The success from it will ultimately be much sweeter without all the bitterness.

                                              Oystein is a good friend and I can say he's a real person who tries his best and is a real stand up guy.

                                              Once upon a time, they created a feature that most people didn't have the balls to admit was happening, they at least came out with it as a feature, open about it.

                                              The industry wanted it and the industry had it as an option, beware buyer, or in this case, affiliate. Some people might actually be able to make higher payouts because they can simply convert traffic to the max, while others use short cuts and shave. But not everyone using the MPA2 program shaved, that's not a fair assumption. Some people shave because their conversion ratios are that much better then the rest of the industry, so you'd never really notice the shave and the payouts are still great. Shaving still exists even if you are making more money then with a different program.

                                              Today's webmaster needs to compete and sell to others that they don't shave. And it's the right way to do business. Always has been.

                                              I don't fault the programmers as much as the demand to have that feaure dictated by the webmasters asking for it. MPA2 is not the fall guy for a feature that an industry asked for, though the majority never knew or wanted this to happen. The people using the program are the minority doing the majority of the revenues being made.

                                              I respect when someone says we've listened to your requests and you're right, we'll take that feature out. The industry spoke up and things changed because the majority can speak on boards and at shows.

                                              This isn't an issue about taking sides, at this point is a charactor issue about some old school credible veterans of this industry and industry leaders that paved the way for others.

                                              I love Mansion Productions, Garry is also a very cool too. And I love NATS, they also have a great service. NATS has always lived up to their word with me and I enjoy working with them too. They have an incredible program just like the MPA3 is an incredible program.

                                              I enjoy eating at McDonalds or Burger King. Both are good. Though I'm on a diet and both are bad at the moment, bad comparision.

                                              I hope that the dust settles real soon and people don't get caught up in the bullshit.

                                              They can both be good. Epoch and CCBill are both good, it's been done.

                                              Can we call this war officially over now?

                                                I know where you are coming from, and fully understand your points. The only thing we keep saying regarding shaving is that if anyone figures out a way to shave while using NATS and actually does it, we will do everything in our power to prevent it from continueing. That means revoking their license and sueing them.

                                                There are WAAAY more reasons to go with NATS than this one though. We have many features that help our clients make more money easily. And we are adding more and more features every day.

It is YOU the webmasters that have created the need for having such a thing! You are the ones that are always sending your traffic to the company that offers the most per signups. And the only way to pay anyone $100 per signups is to be able to adjust the stats.
                                                              I have nothing against your company or new script and believe nobody would be stupid enough to do that again so am happy enough to trust MPA3 but...

                                                              What a huge load of manky bollocks the above statement is. As was proven by those 'caught' we're NOT talking about $100 payouts here - we're talking about revshare too at reasonable payout amounts.

                                                              Webmasters haven't created shaving by wanting the highest payouts. Of course they want the highest possible. The fault lies solely at those companies that feel it's OK to steal and cheat to attract more custom. To say otherwise shows a total lack of undertsanding of even basic market economics, a complete lack of logic and very limited intelligence.

                                                              Ignorance is never bliss.

                                                                Just got off the phone with you. I feel as I always have that you're a reasonable business man. I still feel that oystein is a liability to the company and I still (at this point) would not have any business relationship with you nor recommend a business relationship with you to a client based on my previous expreiance with oystein and your company. I appreciate your rebuttals once you realized who I am and I know that you will address this as you see fit, I simply dont believe it will fix the problem at this point.

                                                                always remember the customer service rule. a satisfied customer will tell 3 people about his good experiance. a DISsatisfied customer will tell 10 about his bad experiance. (j.d. power 1993 study of customer satisfaction factors and related experiance based factors)

                                                                    I also REALLY can't believe how it seems a few of you are assuming we "attack" Mansion just becuase Garry claims we do.

                                                                    We don't.

                                                                    We have a fantasitc product and do not need to attack another company to attract new clients.

                                                                    I only bring up MPA when it is brought up to me. I do not attack them. I only state 100% true things about MPA when I am asked about it. If I am asked about it and I state the facts that is not attacking someone. I don't know why some people can't see the difference. I also ALWAYS say things like "they have said they removed the shave feature in mpa3" or "the database structure in mpa3 is much better than mpa2" etc. Again, I state facts and only after I have been asked about the product.

                                                                    This is not attacking someone. So please don't take Garry's words as gospel. Just becuase he gets his panties in a wad and comes here complaining does not mean it's true. In contrary they are the ones who have admitted giving "wrong" information about us to potential sales. Quite the opposite as what is claimed here.

                                                                    He even posted this post in three threads. These are threads which were either about my product and I was asked about his or they were about his product and mine came up. If my product comes up I have to step in and defend it. I can't let others discuss it without my view point.

                                                                    Cutting around all the bullshit here I think this is also only about one thing. My stating that MPA2 had a shave feature. Juding by this post they seem to have a real problem with me pointing this out. Well, face it guys, it's the truth. And it is a difference between both our companies and our products. And I WILL continue to bring it up as a difference when I am asked about your product or someone drags my product into a discussion of your product.

                                                                    To those who assume base our marketing on "attacking" MPA becuase Garry came by and said so; Please, learn the facts before you form your assumptions becuase in this case you're dead wrong.

                                                                              I have seen both Lens' business model and his numbers. He is able to pay $35 per signup becuase he has a vast knowledge of the business and he knows how to get the most money per join possible.

                                                                              His tours convert and his content retains. I've seen his trial retension %s and I'm jealous on a personal level. He does not shave or fuck with the numbers. It is an honest program. We maintain access to the servers for support of the software and we know he is not fucking with things.

                                                                              He is a stand up guy who is simply good at what he does.

I think this issue mostly spawns from him being scared we offer a better product. He can feel free to call our customers. They are all happy and I'm confident they will not move.

                                                                                He stated that I "called his customers". I haven't, they come to us and of course we try to sell them on our product.

                                                                                I asked him which customers of his I "called". He never answered.

                                                                                And even if I did do that I would see no problem with it becuase you're exactly right, it is business.

I think this issue mostly spawns from him being scared we offer a better product. He can feel free to call our customers. They are all happy and I'm confident they will not move.

                                                                                          He stated that I "called his customers". I haven't, they come to us and of course we try to sell them on our product.

                                                                                          I asked him which customers of his I "called". He never answered.

                                                                                          And even if I did do that I would see no problem with it becuase you're exactly right, it is business.

                                                                                          I had a mainstream business for over 20 years... You think just because it's my customer that a competitor won't call on them. or I wouldn't call on there's. I took great delight when I took one of there customers.

Especially since they've admitted (publically) to incorporating a shave module into their software. Regardless of whether or not you feel "its impossible to offer 35$ per join" or whatever bullshit excuse you use to justify the fact you're a fucking fraudster or at very least an accessory to fraud.

                                                                                            Hand someone a gun, that someone shoots somebody with that gun, you're just as guilty.

                                                                                            Hand someone a shave module, that someone shaves their affiliates, you're STILL just as guilty.

                                                                                            Doesn't matter how you look at it, attempt to justify it, or attempt to blame others for it. MPA is ultimately responsible for frauding thousands of webmasters and should be held accountable

I know that they will come back and say that they don't know who used it or not but I can almost guarantee you 100% that they do know.. A little birdie told me (i'll let you fill in the blank because I won't be responsible for badmouthing anyone's business)

                                                                                                    It dosen't matter if 1 or 1000 webmasters used it, it was still there .
                                                                                                    3rd : Make EVERYTHING you can to stop shaving in the next features. .. you are the programmers, think about it .

                                                                                                    You guys had kickass ideas . you just went too far with the shave script ...

                                                                                                    and acting the way you did toward it (not taking the responsability for your action), won't make people trust you
