On top of that only one banner was allowed per page, with no more than either four or six banners total. I finally decided they aren't really worth the hassle for trying to get upsells and dropped them.
I know the AVS you're talking about, and they don't even accept new WM's anymore, and while I still get paid and can add new sites, I'm kind of wondering how much longer they will last. They have added a couple of innovations lately that are pretty good for existing wm's, but they are so rule-obsessive that they haven't seen the big picture in a very long time. I still promote my sites with them, but if they do go tits up I can switch them to other AVS's pretty quickly.
