as many of you here at gfy have seen, info security with affiliate programs isn't top notch - i'm not saying this is the case with lion dollars. we've seen leaks, and we've seen the repercussions from the leaks. it isn't good or pretty, and to be honest it's a pain in the fucking ass for all parties involved.

that said, i requested a "test account" in so many words so i could verify will be LD providing me everything i needed in order to make myself, and them, cash with escorts. if the tools i need to promote aren't available, i wouldn't be signing up. this is simply to protect my own information - if i am not promoting, or working with a sponsor/company, they do not need my information. the application process would be the same, nothing would change, i would only verify i can actually work with the said program.

i would have preferred not to explain myself like this, publicly, but since my name was brought up in a light that seems to make me come off bad, i think it's warranted.

i personally do not feel this request is way out in left field. maybe it's an adult industry thing, and i'm a mainstream guy not use to these practices or rules.

again this wasn't meant as an attack, drama, or anything. i just want to clear things up.

take care, and good luck with v4 if we can't resolve things :thumbsup

and what will happened to the old links? will they just go dead, redirect, etc...? i don't see a reason why old links can stay online.

I'll make your version 1-2-3 links all compatible with "version 4" for free. LMK if you're interested. No catch, just hate seeing morons claim there is no way to make old links compatible when it's as easy as fuck.

As I told you 15 ways already, we are not in the business of developing news systems just to immediately circumvent at the whim of someone who has NEVER done any business before.

As a "By Application Only" program we will ONLY work with webmasters WE want to, on a basis that WE want to.

If you think that is unreasonable, go somewhere else.

if you try us on and use BS details, you will get caught, and we will terminate forthwith all of current and future accounts.

How do you like them apples?

why do you insist on attacking me? i understand how your application system works. i understand the need for it, screening affiliates is always good.

would you buy a car without looking under the hood? it's the same thing. i would like to verify you guys have the tools i need to make YOU money. yes, it's an insane request, wanting to be sure of a product before using it, who would have thought! and i'm batshit crazy for wanting to protect my personal info in the adult industry, another insane notion! i think in these days a request like this isn't too left field, nor would it any extra effort to accommodate it. am i alone in the adult industry in thinking this?

c'mon now. i really don't want to turn this into a drama or anything like that. i'm not here to make enemies. i'm here to make money. so let's stop with the negative attitude, it doesn't get anyone anywhere.

Nice one mate. Got the email yesterday, including the line that I have been pre-approved to come aboard version 4.

A reminder for me to start sending you dating joins again. :)

Good, I am glad you understand the system and need for it and why we won't circumvent it.

If you apply using real information and then are approved, YOU can decide whether to promote or not, that is always up to you, no question.

Links to example feeds and what not will be posted generally on launch of course, as they always would have been.

But remember we have designed a system specifically for our business needs and the needs of the affiliates that want to and are able to work with us.

:thumbsup

i'm glad we're being more civil now. though i do not see how it is circumventing: if everything is on the up and up and it's a go with me, i WILL be signing up with my real info to go through the application process. i apologize if i did not make that clear, and you though i would be using a name like jim bob for the account.

viewing the feed link will most likely be enough for me to make a decision, but i would feel much better viewing the affiliate system as a whole.
