I wouldn't be that harsh on it. Some of us do some things with our business that are unusual. Like with my hosting company, for example, I actually insist on talking to every client before they become a client. When I used to own SinTalk, I used to pre-screen all of the new affiliates prior to assigning them phone sex lines. Raising the barrier to entry just a little bit means that they don't get so many ass-hats jumbling up their time so they can spend more time with their established customers. Plus, I have to imagine that there is a reasonable argument to be made about the results after comitting to a longer period instead of a shorter one.

Just my

At the end of the day, I just think the folks at GTS are good people
