Saying hello and getting to know...

So I take it that you think that everything is down to the affiliate? and that the producer has nothing of value to input other than dropping everything in order to learn all there is to know about being an affiliate?

I'm sorry but there does seem to be a distinct group of affiliates on every board that appear to act like the most important link in the chain.
I do have affiliates - on another site (a number that grows every day), I ask each one what they want from me and I produce bespoke material for them. The ones I have say that they are very happy with what I do.
The affiliates I have ask for intro clips, galleries etc and I do spend a lot of time doing them and if they asked for something else then they'd get it. What my affiliates don't do is just complain that I'm inexpert.
I'm not an expert on taxation either, but I don't have to be... that's what I pay an accountant for - to do the job he's qualified to do. Not to moan about the dismal state of my receipts.
Affiliates take a decent cut of profits so why not at least treat people with some patience and common decency?

Don't bother replying either - I was misinformed about this place and I won't be back.

Thank Fuckin God
You come in here with a big ego, asking for help when its obvious you don't give a flying fuck about listening to anybody. Everyone one of the posters in here had the right to be a total dick to you (even though they were as nice as possible) because of your attitude. I was quite nice to you(a lot more than i should have). You shouldn't take any of our advice, I mean really just because some of us own programs, work for them, or have just been in this bis sense the 90's, what the fuck do we know. If you go around with this attitude you will crumble your program. Ive seen it done by many jackasses just like you, and will probably get the pleasure of watching yours crumble. So, have fun going from board to board alienating affiliates that might have promoted your program if you could have proved yourself not to be an egotistical fucktard.
