Stuff like this shows why a paysite should never use a processor's link codes and use a simple php front end instead.

It still kills foxyangel when this happens. We basically have a simple php front end that strings together the default CCBill and Epoch link codes together so when Epoch goes down it makes foxyangel unreachable through the affiliate's link code.

Butt... With a php front end you can pull Epoch or CCbill without affecting affiliate's link codes. Just remove the join option and edit the php script, links stay the same.

I have noticed a spike in sales after things start working again so I guess some surfers actually do try again later. Oddly more surfers seem to be using the Epoch option more then in the past... not sure what is up with that.

Never been a big fan of NATS but still it is a nice solution for lager programs, IMO kind of overkill for a one site program.
