Thanks Sagi - and best of luck in achieving your goal for this year

Hey AFF,

It's WAAYYYYYY past Tuesday morning and it sure looks like this guy is still an active affiliate. Was all the talk on Sunday just lip service?

I hope it wasn't!,... because AFF could really set themselves apart from the rest if they ACTUALLY enforced their own terms of service and worked to protect their legitimate affiliates.

DangerDave · 2006-01-31, 10:24 PM

Ah ok it was just lip service...

..because AFF is in bed with the fucking password hackers!

http://www.ultrapasswords.com/

Along with a pile of other so-called legit sponsors

BrainCash
CashTitans
VideosZ
NastyDollars
DeeCash
PerfectGonzo
etc

DDave - thats just spoof password sites - although in this case its the worst phishers out there to be in bed with - theyve had suits brought from Amazon and Microsoft in the last 1 1/2 years and dont know whats going on lately: http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix....icle&ID=618657 read about the Activsoft, Inc. and Cybertania, Inc. and their owner Leonid ("Leo") Radvinsky

He owns most of the fake password sites out there that these sponsors cater to - no wonder the news media labels our industry the way it does - because half the major sponsors out there still cut deals with this guy.

Toby · 2006-01-31, 10:30 PM

Perhaps it's time for TGP and LL webmasters to start adding to our banned sponsor lists.

DangerDave · 2006-02-01, 08:02 AM

Linkster,

Its a SPOOF site up until it's YOUR PAYSITE that is listed on there, and your server comes to a grinding halt, and all your feeds get turned off, and you lose time, money, and members.....

Then it is 100% theft/damage and bullshit, supported by so-called legitimate sponsors...

I would just like to see one of these sponsors stand up, be pro-active and support the webmasters that have supported them for so long...

Everyone is looking for legit trustworthy sponsors... it just seems that very few exist

RawAlex · 2006-02-01, 10:14 AM

Sagi, while we are here, can we handle the fusker sites too?

I guess that clears up all doubt where AFF stands on content thieves.

My TGPs will no longer be accepting galleries promoting AFF.

swedguy · 2006-02-02, 03:18 AM

While we got AFF on the line.

How about these people: http://www.imagecash.net/ ?

A list with stolen Raven Riley content: http://imagecash.net/content.php?sec...&q=raven+riley
The actual content including AFF ad: http://imagecash.net/gallery.php?gid=170100&public=yes

Just words, their actions or inactions speak volumes |pissed|

Toby · 2006-02-02, 07:40 AM

It would appear that someone higher up the food chain at AFF has stepped up to the plate and overruled the prior decision and have banned this guy. No official statement here or on GFY, but both of his affiliate links are now redirectng to a banned affiliate message.

I'll be keeping an eye on this for awhile to see if he gets reactivated.

Yes, it should not take four days of public discourse. When presented with irrefutable proof of content theft the appropriate action is quite clear.

Not really much to say past that.

Alex

RawAlex · 2006-02-02, 02:11 PM

The feeling I get Toby is that it isn't acceptable for you or I to report the theft, because it isn't out content. Even though we can clearly see a hotlink or trimmed content or whatever, it is not ours so we have no technical legal claim.

It is apparently an acceptable business practice to ignore obvious or likely shady activity until the victim comes to and calls the police. In the mean time we can all just walk around the virtual body and act like it isn't there.

Excellent visual, you do have a way with words.

Surfn · 2006-02-02, 02:17 PM

Effective immediately all submits with links to AFF will be deleted.

swedguy · 2006-02-02, 03:15 PM

.... and they're gone. Good to see

RawAlex · 2006-02-02, 05:06 PM

In the end what I don't get is this: AFF / CAMS could just say "no hotlinked images ever" and that would be the end of it. No need to wait for the offended party to complain, anyone could report and things would be taken care of.

It just seems to me that this is all arranged the wrong way around.

I will give AFF credit for one thing: Once they shut down the affiliate, they don't accept the traffic any more at all. That is significantly better than the "cancel but take the traffic anyway" bullshit that other companies pull.
