				EpicCash shaving sigups???
			 Since pimplydoggydog keeps stating publicly that EpicCash shaves and he said something in another post that indicated it was right in the TOS, I went and read the TOS. http://epiccash.com/tos.html 2. Commission. You will earn a Commission of Twenty Five to Thirty United State dollars ($25.00-$30.00) for each valid Trial. Epic Cash reserves the right not to pay if more than 40% of trials do not convert to full membership or when if deem the account is fraudulent. Please clarify.. Is this how you shave signups? If the WMs conversion rate is < 40% and a signup occurs, the WM doesn't get credited for it? If they're above 40% they do? Is their current conversion rate in the stats so they can see when they're going to be credited with sales or if they're not?? Do they see how many sales they weren't credited for along with how many they were?? Or is all of this hidden from the WM? |

				 | After all the shit that's Trey pulled in the past years, you'd have to be out of your mind to still send him your signups. Shave or not shave, take your busines elsewhere. |

				 | I stopped sending them traffic awile ago. I don't care for the people that run that program all that much.  Plenty of other solid companies to work with.

				 | 40% is actually quite a bit more than many programs manage from trial to full.  As a minimum its just crazy .... though since they put it in their TOS I'm not entirely sure .... they are blatantly telling you its likely you won't be paid for all your signups.

				 | that tos is is 4 years old. say whatever you want, we convert great and pay $35 a sale and we dont even pay attention to the conversion ratios anymore. no need to. our recurring is doing just dandy. expect for the few problem accounts and shit traffic some affiliates send.

 Another consideration is that I have been doing this for 10 years and - apart from the flurry of activity about spam emailing a year or two back - it would be very optimistic to say I have had even a dozen notifications of TOS changes. I seriously doubt that is more than a small fraction of the number of sponsors who have updated their terms. So exactly how often are we supposed to check for revisions? It's quite a while since there has been a major blowup about TOS being used as an arbitrary excuse for blocking payments, but I am sure a lot here can remember some well-known sponsors being involved in such disputes. | |

				 | personally, i dont care for the way trey handles business in certain cases. but, here's the great thing about business. i dont have to do business with anyone i dont want to do business with. if you dont like the way epic does business or their tos (whatever it may be) then dont do business with them. thats your choice and right... i however, make my own business decisions and dont take too much credence when it comes to forukm posts. i will try a program for myself and make a decision based on what best for "my business. at the end of the day a programs results either work for me or they dont.. btw, i am just voicing my opinion here and not supporting or discrediting epic or any program for that matter here....  |

				 | I don't think there is a chance in hell they shave.  I know that what they say on the board is controversial, but they are a big legitimate business.  Shaving a few sales which could destroy their reputation and business is just not worth it.  They've also stated that you can test sales if you let them know afterwards. I do this with almost every sponsor. If you have a question about it, I'd suggest testing with a few credit cards and letting them know. |

 its your loss for not seeing past the bullshit. its your decission ofcoarse, i really dont care. piece of advice tho. In business there is always someone you are going to hate. Someone you loathe. A presence you despise yet you will have no choice but todo business with them. maybe not with me, but it will happen. you are only hurting yourself sadly. not me. odds are you are already sending one of my programs traffic lol so no worries. one more note do you think its a personal principle that you dont send me traffic? is it keeping you awake at night tormenting you because you might be supporting something you didnt want to support? now ask yourself this. do you think the guy next to you gives a shit about your decission? in the end its money that drives us all, atleast i hope so. dont tell me most of you enjoy this. the hiding behind your internet marketing facade and the inability to fess up to your peers and be honest about the secret life you lead. ive said this 100 times on here. where there is one person that wont promote me, there is 10 that will. again, its your loss and your wallet that suffers. not me.

				 | Almost every program has this, its just Epic Cash that quantified the number. If you're traffic is not upgrading to full members, the sponsor program will either close your account or put you on a revshare basis. 40% is just Epic's magic number to determine when a WM account isn't profitable.

				 | Tempest.....still touchy are we?  bigger folks than you have tried to take epicdown and have failed miserably....your attempts are feeble at best.... Our terms have been there for years.....nothing new...... If Epiccash is such a cheater...how come i have icq's every day from affiliates looking for someone to pay some shitty sponsor who did not pay them? we pay and always pay unless someone fucks up.....
