Let me say that I consider MikeHawk a great person with a big heart who I admire greatly as a single father.I still consider him a friend no matter how he actually feels about me atm.

I guess my mistake was in getting involved with a promo thread.i should've started my own about Nats because that is where my query lies.At first it just seemed like fun to get Ellisa and John a bit of research .Unfortunately and unintentionally it got personal and for this I apologise as my posts were meant to cast no aspersions on the SmashBuck crew at all.
Cheers.
I apologize too Swami...! The heated posts about these types of affiliate software are always a firestorm and always end up reflecting very positive or negative depending on which side a person is on.. And at the end of the day this reflects on the Sponsor that is using that software as well. I guess I assumed the worst from your post and for that I apologize as well.

Mike has always spoken very highly about you and I hope we all chalk this up to a horrible misunderstanding. I hope we can still get some SEO work done with you one day. Lets still talk about that flight out here and let me buy you a beer instead!

Bottom line on this thread for Smashbucks is this: We as a Program need cascading to grab all those lost sales that would happen if we only used one processor. We need advanced stats for our affiliates and an easy to navigate program AND advanced features for power users. We need a system like this that is backed up with top level 24/7 support. And when we use a software to accomplish all of this it MUST be respected by the webmaster community. Mike and I can only fly to so many shows to put our faces and personalities out there for the webmaster public to get to know us personally and judge our integrity for themselves. For us, nats is the backend answer and anything else is playing with fire and not worth laying our business on the line for.
