ASACP is a great organization and I personally like Joan very much.. however, it has come to the point that it appears to be a money making machine now. How many of the small sites out there would love to participate and be certified as ASACP compliant but can't because they would rather focus their earnings on putting them back into the site. It's almost become an elite club where only the biggest and highest paid can play. Those that do have the funds may shy away because most of us know that non profit organizations often mismanage money and the majority of the money doesn't go to the intended recipient but rather it lines the pockets of overpaid beauracrats (not saying this is the case).
Any time you have a "charitable" or "non profit" organization attached to a business it becomes a real nightmare trying to separate the two as individual organizations especially if parties involved are highly liked or disliked.
I support the ideals behind the ASACP but would never support the foundation itself because of the political ballgames that have to be played. I'm not a very good ass kisser.
To someone who will definitely read this.. Don't worry about telling our mutual friend to keep me on a leash like you did last year in Vegas after the awards show.. They don't control my thoughts or my posts...
