    "Your account may be canceled if you stop traffic"

    Just found this on a stats page.

    "We reserve the right to terminate your account and future payments if traffic is stopped."

    Am I the only one that thinks that is BS? BTW, rev-share sponsor.

                  Before I say who it is, you guys tell me how you interpret this:
                  As a percentage affiliate, you will get a percentage of all future orders and reorders by the XX members who have joined so far provided that your affiliate account is still active - we reserve the right to deactivate accounts who stop sending traffic. By analyzing your traffic conversion numbers and order rates, we can estimate that over the next few years, you will be paid an additional $XX.XX on top of your current earnings of $XX.XX.

                  Note: I make jack shit from these guys. Like $10 a month, not their fault, I just don't send much traffic.

                      not us, I would never recommend such a policy.

                      Traffic is traffic, small, medium or large

                        Fuck that.. if I made a sale and later stop sending traffic, I expect to continue getting paid for those rebills.... Name them so I know who NOT to promote.

                          Another good reason to push sponsors that have 3rd party payouts by reputable companies like CCBill & Paycom/Epoch.

                              I always thought the point of rev-share was partially to continue making money AFTER traffic stopped, for whatever reasons? Isn't that one of the strong rev-share selling points?

                              Maybe a rev-share sponsor can pipe in here. What other rev-share sponsors are leaving options like this open?

                                  We would never do something like that and I think it's a shady way to save a few bucks

                                  However I also know a HUGE sponsor on here that has it in their terms and does it to people - I'll let you all guess who for yourselves

                                    why won't you name them? It's in their TOS, it's not like they are hiding it.

                                      it's AFF he's talking about.

                                      only place that gets away with the giving you less of your revshare if you send less traffic in the future.. fucking bullshit.

                                              Thats who I was talking about. I wanted to get opinions before naming the great Holy Grail of dating sites and hearing the usual schtick of "I went to their awesome party". Whether they ever enforce the policy or not, its total bull shit.

                                                Revshare is revshare... in for a dime, in for a dollar.

                                                  so your ditching adult friend finder?

                                                  I made a stink about this 4 years ago and everyone thought I was being dramatic.

                                                  they are blackmailing you, you either send steady levels of traffic or you lose at least 20% of your rebills... I remember Adult Check and several other shady fuckers did it too.

I didn't get any rebills for months, then I put their links bck up and all of a sudden I get rebills even though i haven't sent new sign ups for long enough to get a rebill.

                                                                                            As a percentage affiliate, you will get a percentage of all future orders and reorders by the XX members who have joined so far provided that your affiliate account is still active - we reserve the right to deactivate accounts who stop sending traffic. By analyzing your traffic conversion numbers and order rates, we can estimate that over the next few years, you will be paid an additional $XX.XX on top of your current earnings of $XX.XX.

                                                                                            Note: I make jack shit from these guys. Like $10 a month, not their fault, I just don't send much traffic.
                                                                                            Sounds exactly what is in the Stats area of AFF.

                                                                                                are you fucking retarded? how do you feel about the people who call you sig-whore? now I feel same way about you - some guy on a message board is telling me, that some stupid "cheers" picture of a guy with glasses is me

                                                                                                seriously, its retarded

                                                                                                go back where i first posted this pic, look up the url and if you can prove that its my, i gonna pay you $5k

                                                                                                it surely beats the $100 bets you're offering the n00bs

                                                                                                its not that it totally upsets me, I don't lose sleep over it. But I admit it, I don't want that people think it's me. I don't care MUCH about it, but i care enough to point it out

                                                                                                but now i'm doing it for the last time probably, I can't be really bothered to discuss it everyday
