Kind of annoyed with ARS...

Allowing people to grab link codes 2 weeks before they announce the change? I think that's pretty unethical business wise. Two months ago would have been better. I know why they wouldn't want to do it earlier than they did because then shit would hit the fan and everyone would start panicing, but come on now...

Responses?

Cheers,
Matt

What do you mean? When did they allow people to grab link codes? Didn't they just announce the change last monday? I don't see what the big deal is.

"unethical" might be the wrong word to use here

Yeah - Sorry, couldn't really think up proper word. I'll change it if someone has any suggestions.

Cheers,

Most people don't have the scripts or setup needed for this and have to to it by hand...

Looks Like I am not going to get that Hot Tub with my points....I knew I should have got it last week....

So are these points going to be converted so you can buy content and content only.

I must admit I am digging their new direction, but Nysus makes a valid point here, didn't really want to give ppl too much time to plan ahead, but then again isn't that just good business.

It's not only that but finding similar sites to push. It's just something that would have been nice knowing about sooner. It's not like I had planned to spend any time having to change link codes.

Cheers,
Matt

I don't believe so. You just have to send 1 signup to any of their sites or products. I think it's called the C.H.A.M.P System?
