a common mis information tactic is dropping threads like "My conversion ratio with xxxxxxxxx program sucks" meanwhile, the poster doesnt tell you that he just started working in online 6 months previous and has the worst possible quality of traffic. people read this malarkey and it gets subliminally filed in their head that program xxxxxxxxx doesn't convert. propaganda has been perfected in adult.

another common misinformational offense is the famous "program xxxxxxxxx doesn't pay" the truth of the matter is, most of the people posting threads like these made 4 sales x 30 bucks a sale over 4 months period time to make the minimum for payout, but do not understand the payout procedures from the TOS. this causes them to make a post because they need and rely on small checks earned over a long period of time.

there are many more, but i don't feel like writing a novel right now.

basically, i don't believe not ONE stats thread or drama thread on any message board. there are not two sides to any story, there are three. party a's story. party b's story. and, the infamous truth of the matter story.

haha i can tell you're deep in your marketing techniques.

the worst imo is spreading misinformation about a certain sponsor. they will clearly be scamming people but their is always the few who jump out to defend them.
