Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless

It is far more important to have a program and people that you can trust and all to often gimics often obscure other important information.

IMO the most important news included:

1. The change in all link codes
2. The removal of 30+ existing sites
3. The removal of current stats for removed site.(meaning that links/referrers can not be tracked)
4. The removal of the rewards program.(and the removal of the catalogue so we now have to jump thru hoops to get what is rightfully ours)

All of these points were left OUT of the press release and hype.

No, Mike I do not love you, and SilverCash has damaged their reputation with myself and others.

Dave Im sure I wont be the first person to tell you this but go ahead and fuck off. You're harassment has gone far enough. Take your moped to the pharmacy and refill that prescription of yours because buddy you got a problem.

You have made a SC hater thread on damn near every board there is. My guys have replied to you on every board and in email and ICQ. We have done everything we can to try and explain our position and it's time for you to quit crying and if we are that horrible please just move your traffic elsewhere if you have not already.

Do you not think we want to do things to help our webmasters and improve our program as a whole? My main goal is to make money! In order for me to make money I need 1. sites that convert and retain, 2. webmaster willing to send traffic. In order to do these things we had to make changes to our program so that we could raise payouts and not lose money. I can't pay you more if I'm making less.

Your complaints which are so minimal but you somehow turn us into some big bad guy that is out to get everyone.

1. We changed link codes. Yes we did. And this is a good thing. Our link codes are now shorter and they are www.sitename/session/id/etc. Where as before everyone of our sites was click.silvercash.com/session/id/etc. Our links have become SE friendly and shorter. All of the previous links are still active and work the same as before. However if you grab new links you'll be getting the new codes.

2. Removing of 30 sites. Yes we did. And this too was a good thing. These 30 sites we removed were only doing about 5% of the total signups SC was receiving daily. They were old cookie cutter sites with horrible members areas. It only made sense to dump these sites. They were converting from trial at 15-20% at best and length of membership was horrible. There was no way I could raise payouts and continue allowing people to send to these sites. We were losing money on every sale before the payout raise. Fun Fact: Since we forwarded the traffic from these sites to the new sites they are actually doing 20% more conversions. So people who still have old links up are doing more sales now then before we forwarded them. Please tell me how you justify (if you are me) keeping up and paying people $40 per join on sites that are making close to $10 per join? lol, maybe that's why you don't run a program.

3. Yes, you can no longer track refers to those old sites. That's what happens when you remove sites. Nothing I can do there.

4. Removal of rewards program. Lets see now... rewards were worth $1 per sale and we increased payouts by $10 per sale. That's +$9 but somehow you still find a way to complain. Seems to me you're searching hard. If you are going by HD it's $14

Basically it comes down to this. All of our new sites are all shot by us in HD and are fully exclusive. This is expensive. Raising payouts is expensive. And in order to do those things you have to get rid of things that are hurting you. Thus we removed some money losing sites and got rid of the rewards program. We have done nothing but give you more and yet you cry? lol

That is damn near exactly what my neighbor said to me the other night when I threw his tree branch on his porch after he threw it on my pile leaves and vine clippings.

Don't know you, can't love you. (What would my wife think?) I didn't like the skin. It reminded me of why black men shouldn't get tattoos.

Obviously, all Dave is saying is that when you make those types of changes, you have a responsibility to inform your affiliates. Dropping 30 sites is a big deal, especially when you are redirecting one's traffic. You're doing it to increase the likelihood sales - we understand that, but that doesn't work so well when we're marketing lesbian site A and our surfer clicks through (now blindly) to lesbian site B. If they expect Muff Munching Mania and find themselves at Labia Licking Lesbos - the the trust factor is harmed.
