Well this sucks, i still have a few sites making sales with them even with out the updates, but i did make some serious bank when they launched.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

really? people are getting desperate. begging even.

That's the TRUTH!

Let me translate :

"Hi ... we are closing tomorrow, wont be paying out anymore even for money owed, oh but its just the affiliate program, we are keeping all the sites and traffic. Thx for all the free traffics suckers!"

It was a cool program with nice content

They had the best content back in the days

why would they not send an email to all affilaites

a looot of good memories with them. If David reads it, thanks for superior program man! :-)
and lol at those thinking they were dumb guys with great content, i bet they banked on PG brands and moved on to bigger deals.

If they are good guys and we helped them make it big... then why would they fuck affiliates on the way out?

Seems pretty obvious to me...

What if they sold the program 1-2 year ago? At least they are saying that they are going to pay any pending payments.

Quoted for the truth.

What Raul was doing was probably worth more than any program would pay him. So he went to where he got paid the best. The same any affiliate would of done with their traffic. The real shame is no program was prepared to pay the money it costs to shoot that level of quality content.

Even PG never bothered to replace him.

yes .

When AdultCheck did this years ago they completely under estimated what would happen when people pulled links. Traffic grinded to a halt. There are program owners who know this and that will keep programs open. I don't think the revshare programs are getting hit any where near as bad as the others.

Goodbye, PerfectGonzo.

did ya miss smth? ... http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showpo...5&postcount=96 ... lets see if they really step up to that statement :2 cents:

I've removed all their links (including the splog posts) so I don't care. RIP Gonzo!

Next, programs will be announcing closings via Twitter - from the airport as they're heading outta town.

I just sent them an email to see if I'm going to get my 80$ that I have there.

It's really sad to see them go, though. I had a lot of ways of sending them traffic... and now I had to cut all that. Too bad.

Ugh. I have about $85 in there too. I don't see how they can just keep it without feeling like a rotten thief.

weg said they would pay and they never did. i really have no hope for any of these failed companies.

bump for our money! I didn't get reply from them...

I love when a program gives 1 day notice!

Said it before and will say it again...

Most of these companies that have closed the doors had reputations for screwing surfers and were accused of all sorts of ill will over the years and now when the webmasters are getting the shaft they act so freaking surprised.

I would call them all pathetic if I didn't feel such a responsibility and an obligation to reach out a helping hand and offer our program as a way to reconcile their losses.

I am so glad I saw this coming the last two years. We have been preparing for all of this..

Perfect Gonzo.... That was so 2005.
I don't think they've come up with a new website the past few years.

so, can we get our money or not?!

How is shutting down the affiliateprogram going to make things better?

They said goodbye to me few years ago, removing my account and keeping the profit for no reason :)

You kidding yourself if you think they are "ditching the affiliate model". What is really happening is their ship is sinking and they are kicking the affiliates off now so they can try to stay a float a little longer by keeping all of the affiliates future revenue. However that will only last so long, months...

These companies are going out of business, not ditching a model. :2 cents:

Exactly, its not. In the short term it is a big boost of income for them because they don't have to make affiliate payments, and they will still benefit from the traffic people are sending that didn't know about the changes. But that will only last for a short period of time. Removing affiliates is the #1 way to put the nail in your coffin for your business. If you can't be profitable on your affiliate's traffic then there is a very good chance you wont make much money off of in house traffic buys. And your volume of new traffic/sales will drop off big time.

yes not one of these companies who have supposedly ditched the affiliate model somehow can't raise the money to start to pay the affiliates what's owed.

they are just broke.

They will announce it after the fact:


" Notice to affiliates - Company XYZ closed our affiliate program on July 1st. If you didn't receive the email then ( :1orglaugh ) this is our public notice to make sure everyone knows. No payments were sent after June 15th. We thank you for your support! "

nice translation

does original or that 'translation' even mean ANYTHING for you stupid fuck?
you're out of biz. GO AWAY :1orglaugh:321GFY

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

No.

too bad to PerfectGonzo

farwell...
