    Sponsors that teach members to clear cookies before signup

    I saw it in a forum in the members section. The admin was telling the members how the affiliate system and tracking works. Also telling members who signed up via an affiliates link to cancel and resignup to stop the rebills.

    How does this make you feel?

      I remember that being on here before. There was a big thread about it. They had a terrible affiliate program to begin with. I doubt they had many affiliates. The name of the program escapes me, but it was an amateur site I believe.

        let me guess, it was a single girl site right? I know who you are speaking of and its really old news
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                      If they are members, isn't it too late to tell them inside the member section?

                          1 signup - then 1 refund... 2 signups - 2 refunds...and so on...
                          I think most affiliates would drop the program. Not good strategy
                          Besides, what would the members think of someone who in public tell people to join scam?

                              People never cease to amaze me with their stupidity. Telling members how to screw affiliates - sounds like a cozy, safe place to be a member and have my credit card info at.

                                You should have seen the members' posts in the forum. They were OUTRAGED that all the money they spent on the membership fees was not going entirely to the owner of the site. They were more than willing to cancel, then clear cookies and sign up again.

                                It was really pathetic.

                                The owner of the site led them to believe that her affiliates where somehow robbing her of her living.

                                  if you promote a cookie-based tracking system in the first place you are getting robbed blind. tracking should be hard-coded in this day and age and cookie and ip methods for tracking are as inaccurate as you can get. sure cookies are useful for additional tracking but not for tracking your sales/bottom line.

                                        If I see that I make shit money from their site, i'll just stop sending traffic.
                                        Simple as that.

                                              I remember that.... don't know her personally but it went to show that so many models are clueless when it comes to the business end of things. So sad

                                                  If I could remember it, I would post it. Trust me, I doubt anyone here promotes it. For one thing, I had never even heard of it before the original thread was posted, and second, they had the most outrageous TOS I'd ever seen, they were basically trying to scare affiliates away before they even signed up.

                                                  If anyone can find the thread post it.

                                                  edit: ya I think it was that winters site.

                                                    I remember that thread. The owner/talent was crying poor and all the sheep fell in line to back her up enraged at how the affiliates stole from her.

                                                    That was a long time ago though.
