I'd be interested to know who this sponsor is too. I have over 40 sponsors, and if I have links up to these asswipes I would love to pull them over this. J & LM = good people, and you don't fuck over good people like this.
If they don't pay you and it comes to no other option... out them. Out the hell out of them. You know I'll have your backs should you need the support.
Seems like the two most valuable things at stake here are your partner accounts and their "reputation."
Hopefully they'll come to their senses, but I sure as fuck wouldn't risk my partner accounts over these numbnuts. Yes, even if that meant leaving the galleries be and sending them even more sales.
You would think they wouldn't want to be outed, though.
FUCK, you made them 500 sales. They must just not be able to pay. If I was them I'd make arrangements.
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, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

Thanks man And you're right the partner accounts are not worth risking in this case

Exactly. I don't know what the dialogue is between Jact, LM and this sponsor, but this is about the best advice I've read here so far, it's what I would do. It's one thing to discontinue any new promotions of them at their request, but it is quite another to have the rest of your business damaged over this one idiot sponsor.
I hope they pay up, but if they don't come to their senses then I can't wait to read about who it is. I can see dozens, if not hundreds of webmasters pulling their links, as well they should. No one sponsor anywhere is too valuable that some other sponsor can't just as easily take their place.

I agree to a point. As partner accounts become harder and harder to get, it's not worth it. But at the same time, instead of emailing tons of tpgs with an explanation, email the important ones that send huge traffic so at least you can get the galleries off those ones. Concentrate on a few and opposed to all of them. As for the rest, don't know...leave them as blueboy mentioned.

This isn't about pay, I'm not worried that they aren't going to pay, I'm sure they will, or they won't, but at least I hope they will, but this isn't what it's about.
The pay is secondary to our business. That is exactly what this is, business, this isn't the schoolyard, you don't say it's okay for affiliate A to use the content and you say it's okay for affiliate B to use the content then go and tell affiliate A that you don't want them using the content anymore and please remove it immediately or we'll lock your account isn't exactly fair, when affiliates B - ZY497B are still allowed to use the content.
Maybe it's a respect thing? A wanting to be treated fairly thing? I don't know. I'm rambling now.

Yes, it's unfortunate that the situation comes to this, but maybe Jact and LM can take solace in the fact that it looks as if they are doing much better than this sponsor.

Well this is it too.. Should we be made to pay for use of content that we are not the only ones using? If this is the case, ALL their affiliates should be required to discontinue use of the content. Why isn't that happening?

Fuck, the situation is worse than I thought. Sorry I didn't realize they were saying to pull the content.
