AWEMPIRE - don´t be so fucking ignorant!

[Horny Joe]

So, I notice that there are something wrong in the linkcodes presented to med in the AWE webmaster area. The code there looks like this:

http://live-cams-1.livejasmin.com/landing/?tid=102&psid=teenage&pstour=&psprogram=REVS&pstool=15_38

Notice the &amp all over?
The above code sets psid to "awempire" when someone clicks Join Now, not my ID. So I do not get credited (or YOU, for that matter).

The correct code should be

http://live-cams-1.livejasmin.com/landing/?tid=101&psid=teenage&campaign_id=29458&pstour=t2&psprogram=REVS&pstool=15_37

This keeps my id as psid.

So, I send in a ticket... and this is the answer I get:

Thank you for contacting the AWE Support!

As I can see the links work properly and we get to Livejasmin website through them.

Have a nice day,

Kind regards,

If you had an employee who you caught "accidentally" stealing from you every six months for years what would you do?

I have been trying to get my password for AWE for over a month.
I dont get it

There are obviously something wrong there. Try to log in and you come to a "404 Not Found" page.... I thought that AWE had better control than this! They have been one of my best paying sponsors for years, even though now a days it is sloooooow... But all programs are going down the drain, it seems!

I could make $2-3,000 a month. Now I am lucky if I make $500. Sucks!

To be fair, got an email just now:

Hi there,

This issue got the highest possible priority as it is our intention to make sure you are happy with the service we provide. Till the fix comes, I may need to ask your kind patience. As soon as there is a resolution, we will inform you right away.

Your anticipated understanding is much appreciated.

You're right when you visit the link code with the "&" the cookie is set to awempire and when you remove that is set to teenage.

the &amp is inserted when people use programs like Front Page to insert Links. If they would do it in Notepad it would be fine. Had this problem back in 2003....
That programs designers / techs need to fix this

[Horny Joe]

Anyone still uses Front Page?

Anyone still uses Front Page?

I doubt it, but I also do not know what the "current" programs are.

Once I seen how FP fucked up links, I learned and use notepad only.

[Horny Joe]

Been using DreamWeaver for years. I bought some programs when I got my mac, Hype and an couple of others, but never use them

[ctggls]

AWE have been experiencing some troubles in the last 2 months or so... I have been noticing the affiliate links are not working either but I thought it was just me...

Anyway, the WLs are gone, now this....

I'm using notepad++ for coding stuff... I was not aware that Front Page still existed ))

Never used anything else.

Well, had my FP period, as well. I think the link-issue was one of the reasons why I started looking for something else.

I can say the issues mentioned under this thread are all solved for now, if anyone needs some help, feel free to contact us at any time!

I code by hand in a text editor (EditPlus) and am very serious about HTML and CSS validating (if you don't get the "green" you suck and/or are lazy)

One thing that breaks validation is an unescaped ampersand ( & ) instead of & -- a problem I typically ran into with CCBill links -- but swapping out proper code (using &) should not change a link, unless something is being parsed by a script on the backend...

& is the correct usage

Perhaps unrelated but I noticed if you use explorer 10 (even after disabling the autocorrection features), to submit forms where you have some code &xx; #; etc. there such as + and euro sumbol € etc., explorer is so smart to replace with + and euro symbol and whatever html code is converted to unocode equivalent, and save it that way, so explorer 10 it is officially not usable for any html forms or admin type of editing.

Is there anything you don't know?
