DH

I guess this will be a long thread, so let me just say that I hate all you fucking people. Thanx

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Amazing all the rumors that companies actually do shave are true.

Have you contacted the smoking gun yet on this?

This might even make 60 minutes!

Let me tell you a secret. There are more scammy webmasters than there are scammy sponsors.

MPA 2 has the same thing

I wonder what other popular affiliate softwares have a shaving feature built in

from what I understand, MPA does not have one built in as a standard, but it is a optional ad on, right?

i'm sure this is a rhetorical question.

well isn't this nice :mad:

Good question

It was build in on the one I used

wrong.

wow!!

You can't get 70$ per signup, a new car every 50 signups and no shave ! :1orglaugh

That's nice.

SpaceAce

thats fucked up :1orglaugh :321GFY adtrackplus

Software does not shave people shave..

wowsers :warning

i promote most of the sponsors out there and i have never seen an affiliate stats page looking anything similar to it. It must be a new script or rarely used. Someone should mail them asking for sponsor testimonials hehe

Well, it could mean that templates system is also a great feature of adtrackplus :1orglaugh

hahah.

lol i missed this option

Don't act all surprised, and don't blame this software company either. It's been happening since the pay per click days of adult webmastering. Most sponsors have custom scripts to do it that are probably light years advanced than this one, to try and fool the affiliates into thinking there isn't a shave going on. But sponsors have to shave to keep up with offering high payouts and still being able to cover all of their bills and profit margins. Deal with it.

software only shaves when the people that are running it tell it to.

a shave could be good in some circumstances. example: a sponsor gives free BP hosting, but at a cost of 10% of your sales? bad example maybe but what the fuck? there is good in everything.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

my lawyer thinks we can sue multipile sponsers.

I would agree.

wow an option to turn your business into a federal crime business, the people that made the stats program is dumb for doing that.. that can be a major lawsuit, shaving commisions from your employe's is like a federal crime i think

Is it me or E-V-E-R-Y fuckin time shave is mentionned in a thread the first thing you do is spam your shit right away?

Someone alert Acacia.

Berman won't be happy about getting shaved out of his 2%. :1orglaugh

Not unless you catch them red handed shaving it off. All they have to show is that the shave has a legal function

LOL, we are not employees, we would be at best freelance or subcontractors.

How many of you would quit using your favorite sponsor cause someone posted a screenshot like that of their control panel?

Everyone knows there's always some shaving in play, it's something you need to accept, and move on. The bottom line is who makes you the most per click you send to them. IF sponsor A makes you 6 cents a click and sponsor B makes you 3 cents a click but you find out Sponsor A is shaving 10%, you gonna switch to sponsor B? Cmon.. :2 cents:

Photoshopped

:1orglaugh

This is quite simple.

We don't jack around webmasters traffic.

I don't know about you.. But when I send traffic to someone, I would like to know exactly what I'm sending. Instead I have to investigate and wondering where the click is being counted. (if at all)

But if you had a 20k+ investment in your backend just to have the most honest and respectiable webmaster ad tracking in the biz like I do.. Then Hell Yeah!, I'm going to mention it every chance I get.

PD webmasters know that the traffic / sales they send I 100% accounted for.

Very bad ethics including a "shave" feature

Nothing new....almost each and every affiliate software comes
either default or as plugin with somekind of shave system.
The simple reason why is because webmasters want this in a
system when they buy it. It's a cold hard fact. I've looked at quite
a few different programs before I bought mine and I have not
come accross 1 that does not already has this feature standard
built in or is available as an extra option.

Developers don't come up with this shit. It's webmasters who
require these features else they won't buy their system. So be
wary of ANY webmaster that claims otherwise. Most systems have
the feature it's up to the program owner wether they use it or not

damn:( That sucks, time to start an own paysite:D

If that was my software, i wouldnt be using that word shave.
That just seems WAY too obvious to me.

just getting a front page sig spot . . . . not exactly news that there is software with this feature is it?

No that makes it quite obvious allthough more programs use the
term shave, other terms are correction ratio, decrease or trim

DynaMite

Nice software! :thumbsup

So something like "Periodical Impression Acquisition"?

:(

You'd think the software could be a little less blunt and use a "code" word! I'm curious as to who is using this particular software.

i would call it the "shrinkage factor"

Doesn't make a whole lot of difference what they call it, the effect is the same and this is far from the first time similar facilities in affiliate software have been exposed.

As long as we keep asking to take it in the ass, it's naive to imagine there won't be plenty willing to oblige.

50 shaving sponsors. :BangBang:
