PlatinumLantern - I didnt mean to bag on ya so hard, ya been around a while ya got my respect however I can only hope that ya run legit in the business cuz talent is runnin damn rare these days.
Stay away from the darkside damn you!

Damn I still remember the special christmas banners...they were pretty cool :glugglug

Funny no other sponsor is offering seasonal banners. I thought they worked great!

I remember I was surfin the web one sunday, and I saw something that said "Webmasters, Make 18 cents per click"

Sounded like a helluva deal..
then I click it and find out it's a porn program...

I signed up and soon realized I could beat my allowance of $10 a week by clicking on my own banners (They had like 8 sites I think), logging off the internet, logging back on (to get a new IP address so the next 8 clicks would be unique/new to the system) and REPEAT....

I did this for about an hour a day....
and suprise suprise the check came...

I was making money from nothing
Had my 8 banners set up on a tripod page....

Then I got to thinking..
how can I make more...
then one night it hit me...

After seeing how the password sites were promoting XPICS...
I did some usenet spamming, I'd post a message in every group with a large audience, the video game board, the alt.gun room..
whatever....

This is the way I'd set up the hustle
"Hey Everybody, We just got a list of stolen/hacked passwords to some porn sites, now you can get in for free! The might not last long, so get them now. If they don't work right now give them about few hours and try again sometimes if a password is being overly used it will keep it from working for a few hours*)

I'd set up the links like

http://fake:password@<a href="http:/...ccountcode</a>

I was making like $60-$100 a day...
not to mention one weekend they had a 40 cent's a click promotion...
DAMN..
That was some easy money man....
I miss those days

I only wish I had got in on it sooner....
and been able to make more before the industry changed up...

With XPICS, some people got shaved by XPICS, some people robbed XPICs...

This is truly a Throwback Story

Not smart to brag about stealing $ from other people. Maybe when Brian Shuster decided to go after people for his patents, you will be first. I made a fortune with Xpics, was one of their largest legit affilates.

Damn, I missed out. Wish I had been around in the good old days.

Can't believe how many of these are still around. Used to pull clicks like crazy. I wonder why sponsors don't offer banners like these anymore.

I did very well with Xpics back in the day. And also Pure Hardcore when Dave S. owned it. Great programs for up and coming webmasters to make some loot.

Never had to cheat them to make over $100 a day. Seemed pretty easy back then even with just a small to mid-sized pic site.

Ya think its a great idea to brag about how commiting fraud in the past will warrant any credibility to a future as a credible professional webmaster for a sponsor program?

I think not and yet people are gonna cry why they were not approved as an affiliate for XYZ sponsors...

HAhahahahhahahahahah!

Fucking idiots..

And when some kid shows up that 'accidently' stole some content
for his gallery he's a thief for life.

Idiots.
