Actually Bret...

I am also referring to error codes.

404's can take place for more reasons than you stated. A sponsor's staffer may fuck up an upload or a variety of such events. If they are 404ing a valid gallery link and not carrying forward my id, they are technically cheating, particularly since that event is so easy to solve. All you have to do is carry forward the id into the 404 page via whatever include the sponsor is using. No affiliate id, no include, which would cover the bases for everyone.

Bottom line, if they redirect a gallery without my id, they are cheating, whether the 404 is inadvertant or not.
