I know Shap for a long time. He was in violation of the TOS. If he hadn't pissed with 12clicks, the worst that would have happened would have been a polite e-mail. Simple mistake, one that Shap wasn't even directly responsible for (he had someone running the site for him at the time). But because he went at it on a board, it wound up costing him some coin. Not a good day for my friend Shap, but like my old man told me, "fuck with the bull -- you get the horns". More than just that paycheck, too -- since that proggie was red hot shit back then (much like free ezine are/were now)
(hey Fly, notice I used -- )
pretty much this thread is standard operating procedure, so it should be aimed at newbies. If you're doing good in you biz, it might cheer you up to get some affirmation of your beliefs.

Steve, I appriciate the post. I'm not looking to hammer shap. That story is 2 yrs old. He's doing his thing, I'm doing mine.
