When You join a program...

[spazlabz]

Ok I have an earnest question for everyone here who joins programs as an affiliate and starts promoting that programs sites...
Do you use real information when you join a program?

No no, wait now, hear me out please. This is an honest question and not the beginning of some sort of rant. I know just about everyone uses their own websites when asked for a URL in the application. I figure that the epassporte info or mailing address is correct (depending on how the payout is going to be) but the question lies in the e mail addy's and ICQ#'s about a week and a half ago I sent out, from my own outlook account (not using a mass mailer but one at a time) over 700 e mails to some of our affiliates. Not one reply and several bounced back
I have also tried to contact many affiliates via there ICQ#'s, which i will admit, I have had more success with, but not nearly the success I would hope for. How is an eager lil affiliate manager going to be able to open a dialog with the partners of his program if there is no way to contact them.... seriously. This is not spam, but an expression of frustration here, I REALLY.... HONESTLY want to make our program the best it can be and I need to talk to those people who are out there every day pushing sites and making bank to talk to me and tell me how to improve our program that they have already signed up for. So if anyone can shed some light on this, I would be extremely appreciative. no I am serious. If your an affiliate of our program I really DO want to hear from you.
