Same as Fusker. :(

And just as weak. :D

UW, I wanted to post an example of one of our hosted galleries on opendirviewer. We have our htaccess set up to serve a 'special' image to those kinds of sites too. But maybe they've finally gotten the message that we don't like them. When I try any of our gallery URLs there, all I get now is:

"The requested url cannot be viewed and is now deleted from our database."

And Fusker now says "NO RESULTS for (URL)"

I'm glad they're not hotlinking our images now, but as long as they're doing it to other people without their permission, they're still thieves as far as I'm concerned.

Simon

I clicked on a few of the galleries they have listed on their page and got that same response. I assume they have a blacklist of sorts for certain domains. A hotlinker that doesn't want any trouble? Who knows.

Maybe I'll fill up their database with my gallery URL just to get my name seen on my hotlinker gif. ;)

The pictures that are being used on boneprone.com (where I assume that screenshot is from) aren't pictures that AFF provides to members to promote with. The pictures that he's using are hosted at http://www.modelsgroup.com/aff/.

wheat, the image problem is something that has been brought to AFF and other dating sites attention, but they are loath to deal with it. They seem to fail to understand how this could be viewed as misleading or deceptive advertising, as the claims for these girls being on their system is 100% and total false.

Regardless of being on the internet or in the real world, false or deceptive advertising can lead to action from various levels of government, including the FTC in the US.

That companies allow third parties to generate such misleading advertising and then pay them well for doing it... well... they are asking for trouble, IMHO.

Alex

Agreed. Which is why I won't promote them. According to AFF there are hundreds of playmate lookalikes in my small ass hick town. Although I have yet to see a single one.|huh

This is what AFF will be doing when the FTC is informed of its dubious actions|escape|


False advertising at its finest.

I won't personally piss on the parade, and I suspect they have done the same math that many companies do:

Make 50 million running the site, admit no wrongdoing but agree to pay resitution and a fine to total 5 million, and move on with your 45 millions and enjoy life, potentially starting another variation on the theme.

Alex

Sounds like he needs to change his motto from bow to the power to... beware the thief. Hes one of my favorite Zoo animals of all time. He made one of those "big dick'n" videos to show off his new ride. Further investigation of the video reveals that in his zeal to prove to the world the strength of his "pimp hand" that he forgot to take off the temp rental car tags.

Answer your cell phone BoneProne.... Poser Mobile is calling!

The AFF thread is so funny. I was having my accountant work on my taxes (he knows what I do for a living, obviously) and he asked me if I could help him meet a couple of girls he saw on AFF. He is nice looking, older, makes very very good money. He joined and wrote several ladies, no good response. I hated to tell him that the girls in the pics were not available locally.

If ya are with AFF I'll give ya a little hint, you use
Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas and that's FEDERAL land.
There's talk about probs over Porn Sites advertising Federal
Property in their ads in the local papers for a few months..
You should use Hot Springs, Arkansas and knock off the
National Park bit..
