Torn,

The reason there are so many thumb TGPs that still trade traffic is that NO ONE thinks or "knows" this is "illegal". Their sponsors are not bitching about it, so HOW COULD THEY KNOW? You are the FIRST I have heard complain about this. Perhaps you are the only one who views it this way? Perhaps its your self confessed unfamiliarity with traffic trading and the benefits it provides you that gives you this stance?

If I use one of your FHGs on a text link for trades, is that illegal too? Can you please let us know what ELSE you view as illegal that you did not put in your terms? Its only fair that we know. Of course that would rob you of the pleasure of flaming people on boards for doing things you think is wrong but everyone else thinks is business as usual, so I understand if you don't want to.

Perhaps you should go through and fire ALL your affilliates that use traffic trade scripts. Perhaps the impact on your business would help you understand traffic trading a little better.
