    I think it might just be an error. I was on there two days ago and it was all good.

        same here, the fuckers owe me $500 and refuse to talk to me. I've been trying to get a rep for a week.

                MarcDE is not managing it anymore, plus the adult biz is no what it used to be in 2001.

                He's with some games software company now.. doing lots more $$.

                Robby are you there? Hello? You said the adult biz is great right now. Are you there, loser? heh.

                .

                  I'm not defending ARS, I'm simply saying I was there two days ago (actually to see if it was still up) and it was and I was able to login with no errors. So *I think* it's an error, not them closing up.

                  I don't send ARS any traffic, haven't in years.

                  And I don't think I "shit" on other companies. Yes, it's too bad people have gone out of business and I think the WMs should be paid. But I truly don't think I've said anything worse or even close to others.

                  I think that the companies that are closing up shop could afford to stay alive and pay WMs on existing sales at least. Go down to a revshare, etc.

                                          I had always been happy with ARS. Made quite a bit of money over the years. Out of the blue last week I get an email announcing that my ARS account is locked due to the following reason: "The last 2-3 weeks have shown overwhelming fraudulent activity". I am a high volume affiliate and push some 200+ sponsors, across all of them I have a very low chargeback rate (was non existent until the industry started going to shit).

                                          So I write back, explaining how I promote them, sites I have their ads on, etc. I also explain I have minimal chargeback rates elsewhere and that I have never participated in "fraudulent activity". Their response is that they are forwarding it on to higher management and they will let me know the status "soon". This was 7 days ago and I still have not received a response. They assure my my traffic and sales are still being counted but I cannot login to my account so I am not so sure.

                                          Though I haven't made a ridiculous amount of money with them, I have done roughly 15k over the past year and a half according to Stats Remote. It is not a good business practice to lock my account before initiating contact given my history with them.

                                          I will come back and update my post if and when I hear back from them...

                                            Maybe they aren't dead but someone surely isn't monitoring it well.

                                                    Everyone can calm down. I just spoke with Symbiont who is working on huge upgrade to the master DB server.
                                                    "Members can still sign up, and sales are cached."

                                                    Should be back up soon.

                                                    As far as I can tell, ARS is doing well, and they still get a large portion of my traffic.

Out of the blue last week I get an email announcing that my ARS account is locked due to the following reason: "The last 2-3 weeks have shown overwhelming fraudulent activity". I am a high volume affiliate and push some 200+ sponsors, across all of them I have a very low chargeback rate (was non existent until the industry started going to shit).

                                                                    So I write back, explaining how I promote them, sites I have their ads on, etc. I also explain I have minimal chargeback rates elsewhere and that I have never participated in "fraudulent activity". Their response is that they are forwarding it on to higher management and they will let me know the status "soon". This was 7 days ago and I still have not received a response. They assure my my traffic and sales are still being counted but I cannot login to my account so I am not so sure.

                                                                    Though I haven't made a ridiculous amount of money with them, I have done roughly 15k over the past year and a half according to Stats Remote. It is not a good business practice to lock my account before initiating contact given my history with them.

                                                                    I will come back and update my post if and when I hear back from them...
                                                                    Problem solved! I was just able to get back in touch with **** and they have released the hold from my account. I completely understand the need for companies to do inspections to combat fraud, just wish they had not put my account on hold before speaking to me. I shouldn't have jumped the gun and posted this, just seemed as though I was not the only one having issues and wanted to voice my concerns.

                                                                    At any rate, I have made good money with ARS and now that this is taken care of I look forward to making lots more!

I was reading through the old ass Dirty D drama and Robbie was in there arguing and taking up for the piece of shit Dirty D as well. I forget the other threads but more Robbie arguing the wrong direction about silly shit.

I was reading through the old ass Dirty D drama and Robbie was in there arguing and taking up for the piece of shit Dirty D as well. I forget the other threads but more Robbie arguing the wrong direction about silly shit.

That IS NOT what an affiliate is supposed to do. You can run your dick skinners from now until doomsday and I could care less. An affiliate is supposed to bring NEW eyes to a program, which is what I do when I promote a site.

ARS has been very good to me when I was doing primarily adult. Can't go wrong with 2 Inspiron laptops, 2 Xbox consoles, Two George Foreman grills, and a shitload of other rewards. Thanks for the memories, ARS.
