Oprano, what a joke. If they keep this up...
Oprano will be lucky to keep any paying sponsors with the way they do business. AdultActionCash will not be renewing our ad spot with them.
AdultActionCash has been a paying sponsor on Oprano for the past 2 months. This week, I was contacted and told that we could no longer post our announcements for our webmaster poker tourneys in their main forum. Instead, I should place them in the "Announcements for NON-Sponsors" forum from now on. I was also informed that they had a poker idea in the works and that I would benefit far greater with that so I shouldn't make a big deal out of this. They offered to give me a free month and fly our sig for a month if I would stop making my posts.
I informed them that AAC benefits enormously from our webmaster tournaments, and that it is imperative that I be allowed to announce them on the Main Forum. They refused to budge and now insist that they don't allow "co-branded" announcements and that by keeping the poker tournaments announcements off the board they are best benefiting the paying sponsors. LOL!! But we ARE a paying sponsor!
Here's a bit of my ICQ convo with Nick this morning:
myjah (11:46 AM) :
Hey, are you around? It's myjah with AAC
Nickatilynx (11:46 AM) :
Yup.
myjah (11:47 AM) :
We want our money back if you insist that we drop our poker announcements in the spam forum, which happens to be titled "for NON-SPONSORS"
Nickatilynx (11:47 AM) :
Co-branding was not part of the agreement.
myjah (11:48 AM) :
It was not mentioned at all in the agreement. I know what was part of the agreement.
Nickatilynx (11:48 AM) :
Exactly.
myjah (11:48 AM) :
And you let these announcements be made until this week when you guys decided you are going to open something poker related.
myjah (11:49 AM) :
Exactly. You can't accept a sponsors money and then change your rules to suit you.
Nickatilynx (11:49 AM) :
Nope.
It has been an annoyance from day one.
And I will not allow it on my board.
If the poker people want to aedvertise , they can
Nickatilynx (11:50 AM) :
We are not changing our rules.
You will not get your money back , you were offered a fair deal out of kindness
myjah (11:50 AM) :
Kindness?
Nickatilynx (11:51 AM) :
indeed.
myjah (11:51 AM) :
We were offered a sponsorship, we payed it, and now you are trying to dicate what we are allowed to announce because it may interfere with your plans and your wallet.
Nickatilynx (11:51 AM) :
I hope you enjoy and reap great benefits from the promoting the poker , but not on my board.
Nickatilynx (11:51 AM) :
It is my board.
myjah (11:53 AM) :
And it is our money. Which you won't be seeing anymore of. Way to keep sponsors on a half dead board anyway.
Nickatilynx (11:53 AM) :
oh no!!
I'll cancel the order for my new Bentley
myjah (11:54 AM) :
Ya right...might want to cancel you order for your hosting too and stick with the free service you're getting to be able to keep your board up.
Nickatilynx (11:55 AM) :
you don't have a clue do you...lol
myjah (11:55 AM) :
No, I have the whole picture. It's you that doesn't have a clue.
Nickatilynx (11:56 AM) :
go away , you bore me...
myjah (11:56 AM) :
We'll see very shortly how much I bore you
myjah (11:56 AM) :
And I can't believe you would talk to a sponsor that way
Nickatilynx (11:58 AM) :
Why shouldn't I. We are supposed to worj together and you are being unflexible in the extreme.All our other sponsors work with us quite happily.
Nickatilynx (11:58 AM) :
You are downright rude , demanding what you want.LOL
myjah (11:59 AM) :
You are refusing to work with me. All I'm asking is one post a week and I didn't even include a clickable link to 2bet in that post. And btw, the company that sponsors your board has the right to be demanding. If you want to take peoples money, you should understand that you need to work with them
