previously, when you were able to go in and view the RIP forum site, there were sponsor banners at the top.. i remember seeing one for AFF.
Assuming sponsors that monitor the referer log for their websites, they could drop RIP as an affiliate (by doing a grep for the RIP domain and pulling out the affiliate ID), even look at his stats to see how traffic from stolen content helps them convert...
one of the ironies of all of this drama is of content producers who get upset when people steal their images, but yet they download music/movies/warez from the internet.
Fight the doh!
