Branding... hahahaha..

You can take any program in this business, I don't care who it is. And change the name tomorrow, forward the traffic (if needed) and as long as Webmasters are paid - It's perfectly fine, the brand isn't needed - design, graphics, not even a name is needed.

And nothing would change... because with programs the 'people/owners' are the brand, and the content websites for surfers.

Thinking you have a brand to Affiliates is about as silly as thinking Affiliates are loyal.

There are many people here who advertise, and *gasp* they are not above everyone and actually do respect other forum members.

The rules are there for a reason, and they specifically state what sig size the top advertisers are allowed to have. Pull your nose out of Mickeys ass, open your cum-stained eyes and go read it up, boy.

Smokey The Bandit Rides Again :winkwink:

that's not at all the point of my comment. it doesn't matter if it's digging a ditch or creating amazon, people take pride in what they've accomplished. and i believe that was shown in this thread.

bro club? sure, why not. but the point remains, many non-bros think the bait and switch thread was inappropriate.

There are disgruntled affiliates everyday, regardless of how "top-notch" or "stand-up" the company is.

If companies were damaged so badly by threads, half of the adult programs would be out of business.

The title has been edited by a mod.

Originally it said that DatingGold were scammers.

Inappropriate correct, the forum is called Go Fuck Yourself.. and inappropriate is "extremely" different than thinking it hurt your brand, name, image, or reputation.

Do you feel DG's brand or name was hurt, tarnished, etc because of his post? Of course not, and "that's the point."

So I guess you can be an above board dating program and get pissed off when people jokingly associate your name with scam, but then have shitpiles of fake profiles on your site and send members fake emails to entice them into becoming a paid member..

I am so confused...

Edited appropriately to reflect the change. My bad.

so...... what happened to the original topic at hand? any news on this?

It's more refreshing than the retards who send me "SEND THIS GHOST HALO 3 PIC TO 20 FRIENDS AND YOU'LL GET GHOST ARMOR TOO!" shit.

Putting my nose in Mickeys ass? For what? Higher payouts? Don't I have to be an affiliate before that will happen? I'm a programmer, I have no reason to brown nose any affiliate program for any reason, just stating the facts.

Money talks, and bull shit walks. Maybe if you stopped trying to be the internet's coolest guy maybe you're opinion would matter, but based on most of your replies that I seen, nobody would be making any "Where did San go? Is he Ok?" like you see for AfterShockMedia (speaking of...).

Cool story again bro.

it doesn't matter what i *feel* what matter is what i know, and i know a lot of people here take their brand very seriously. regardless of if you think it's worthless or won't stand the test of time.

many of the comments here reflect this.

it's not cool to fuck with someone's business just because one thinks it's cute to start fake drama threads. regardless of if there was harm done.

if i was the owner of dg and sitting on a pile of cash, i might find it funny to kick the op's ass all through the legal system just because i think it's funny and that's ok, you know why? cause i think it's funny.

no it didnt.

nobody did any of those things , and i think my comments reflect that, the thread was a real topic with funny content.
and someone might find it funny to melt your server just cuz they like being funny like you, and thats ok why ? cuz they think its funny. Very tacky to make mountains over molehills.

i didn't make a mountain out of a molehill, i stated i understand those who didn't find the misleading topic appropriate and that your failure to apologize because dg wsan't nice to you was not unlike being in grade school.



now you are commenting on melting my servers? what a fucking juvenile.

It's not what I feel, it's a fact. It has been proven at least 100 times. People can take the names they built up, serious if they like.

But it's the ego that shows how people really are when it's over something that wasn't an attack.

DG's lawyers wouldn't give this a 2nd go, I would bet they couldn't force a lawyer to take it. And no company would risk the loss for such a frivolous law suit either. That's because it wasn't an attack, of any kind.




Clearly you are a 'friend' nickname.. I'm done.

careful, you might get threatened to be sued for more then smokey the bear.

he said melt "a server", so if you have more than 1 server (like you infer in your statement above) and you have some redundency built in, then it shouldnt be a big deal...

melt away i say good sir, melt away... :thumbsup

you still don't get it.

glad you are done though.

i apoligized before dg even got in the thread , then after they came in the thread several times. I said i wasnt going to go out of my way to alter the thread title if thats the way he was going to ask.






i never said anything about your servers. If you were the theoretical owner of dg sitting on piles of cash suing people for making jokes because you thought it would be funny, someone might theoretically melt your servers because they thought it was funny. People dont do outrageous stupid things because they think its funny. I dont anyways.

i am like rubber and you are glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you.

p.s. and you smell like dog poo.

he couldn't find *my server(s)*

not that i'm worried. but the comment does reveal the nature of the op's thinking.

just read only the first page of this thread, but you words sound similar to the scammers on blackhatworld wondering what happened to their account.
and i do have nothing against your company. but you should rather choose your words wisely next time.

I get you're the only "affiliate" on here supporting them, prob because you are one of them.

i guess this is where i am supposed to tell you to reread the thread, because you are under a complete misapprehension to assume i supported dg in this thread and that i am an affiliate to anyone.

i've stated and restated my view, it's unfortunate that you are more interested in being right than understanding what is going on.

he's an ex marine.. its very hard to get through to these people..

at this point, i think its best if you hire a mediator to resolve this situation before it gets way out of hand.. :2 cents:

I'm nothing more than an automated bot programed to respond until a thread dies.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

thedoc has always struck me as level headed so i trust he and i can disagree and he won't go off simply because i have an alternative view on something as silly as this thread.

To me it was obvious when you opened the thread, he was trying to be funny. Instead of threatening to sue Dating gold should be giving smokey a gift for giving them a more focused platform of people talking about how great they are.Which is worth more than any 5k banner on this site.

Allan is a righteous man. :thumbsup

Brad

thats what i'm talking about.:thumbsup

Exactly same thing could be said about you. Snotty lil punk kid troll with a big mouth.

the title was change ?:upsidedow

Haha ok kido, go look at my history and yours and for the first 3 pages, count how many troll posts I have, and how many you have. I'm pretty sure it will be 3 to 20 you troll more.

DatingGold has always been good to me!
I only have ever had 1 issue with them...not receiving a check due to a US mail mix up. :)
Once I e-mailed AK about it, he promptly had them stop payment on the check and even took time out of his day to give me a call, telling me not to worry that it would sent via epassporte ASAP.I got the money and was happy.

I've been in this biz for over 11 years.
Normally, most other sponsors will not take the time out of their day to call you up and reassure you something like this.To me that says a lot about the quality of employees Dating Gold has.They definitely care and want to keep their affiliates happy.


As for that post on BHW,that site seems like a lot of younger kids from what I can tell, and most are full of shit.

Holy fuck, you're a colossal douchebag. The way you're acting might just start to make people wonder if what that 'affiliate' in the other forum claimed is true.

Congratulations on that.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Don't laugh at him or you might have to hire a lawyer.
