I thought your were talking to me when you mentioned the $200 thing. But now I see you were talking to GG. I have no idea who I am signed up under. Chances are, they're from this board though. Could be you. Could be GG. I just don't know...

[Ramster]

Eric is a good man and so in Loryn. But their payouts are terrible. I've missed payments too and am waiting for one now actually that is way late. Of course it's not even $200 so not a big deal.

Still waiting for this fucking check that should have been mailed out 01/01/05.

[grzepa]

Yeah me too... Im waiting for the check that they sent before (loryn said so) but It didnt arrive, so they resended it ...its taking so long.

[GenXer]

Warrior you said you hit the minimum payout on 1/10/05 right? That means that for the period up until the 15th, you earned enough to get a check and the payperiod up until the 15th goes out on the 1st of Feb.

If they still owe you a check from BEFORE then where you hit the minimum payout, then I understand why you're worried. Let me know if this helps at all.

[GenXer]

Wait, I just went back and read it. You said you hit the minimum payout on DEC 10th. Yeah they definitely owe you a check. I read it wrong. Sorry about that.

That really sucks you haven't gotten yours yet. I always get mine from them but like I said it always takes a while (at least 10 days in the mail). Do you live out of the country or anything? I'm really surprised they haven't paid you yet! Let us know when you get it.

They just don't like me. I can't blame them. I don't like me half the time either.

Eric told me it was because of the Vegas show and that Lensman likes to personally sign each check. So I'm forced to assume that they either don't give a shit about affiliates getting paid or Lensman forgot to bring a pen with him to the show.

But that's ok. Don't go crying for me Argentina. My payback is going to be in the form of a large angry herd of pink dancing elephants. Then they'll wish they had paid this warrior on time!

I don't care if Lensman wants to personally fondle each check. Just get it to me on time. I'm running low on beer damn you!

As well as they converted on the little traffic I sent them, I'm always going to have a bad feel for them. (Unless they send me a T-shirt. )

Lol ... hope you never try Non-adult, 2 weeks hold would be a dream for most non-adult sponsor programs. I have most ranging from 1-3 months hold. Even Adsense is 1 month hold if I remember correctly.

We are spoilt in adult.

Spoiled? You consider us spoiled for expecting to be paid as promised? I'm not sure why I should wait longer for an internet business to pay me than an employer that I can reach out and touch with my own two hands.

Let's keep in mind, I'm not complaining about a check that is 2 or 3 days late. The fucking thing should have been processed January 1st. With the holiday it should have been mailed out Monday the 3rd. They're going to hear my friendly voice on the phone in morning. If they don't give me a damned good reason not to be pissed, they're going get such a string of explicativees that they'll want to put me on the line with the dumb fuck who writes their ad text so he can find inspiration in my words.

Yeehaa!

Well, useless warrior, if you are like me you depend on your affiliate checks. I work hard online and this is what I do for a living. I expect to be paid too just like you. If a sponsor doesn't pay out on time or has bad support, they lose my business.

I agree with everything you are saying. Affiliates have to work hard and spend all their time and get paid on a commission :-). That is what makes it so hard.
I wouldn't change a thing though!

Normally, useless warrior, I'd say forget about them and let them go. But Realitycash.com always pays on time (at least me) and it sounds like they are trying to get it sorted out. They recently asked me for a W-9 form, could this be it? They wanted it ASAP and some sponsors will request this before paying you out. Of course, I'd been promoting them for a while before they asked me for it.
If they said they sent it, I am sure they did.

By the way, I've NEVER had a problem with a sponsor. The only problem I've ever had with a sponsor was just absolutely TERRIBLE conversion ratios, not with payment. I usually stick with sponsors that established webmasters promote, like if Greenguy and Jim say they are good, I'll sign up. I always steer clear of a sponsor who is IFFY or doesn't have some good thumbs up from other webmasters.

Anyway, I need to shut up now. I hope you get your check! I am feeling sorry for you LOL. I know what it's like to wait for your bread and better. That is why I bust my ass updating my sites and adding new stuff, so I keep my sales up. BY THE WAY, WARRIOR, earlier this month I was on the board complaining about my ratios were much worse than usual most of the month with all of my sponsors. I said only a few were still converting good. Realitycash is one of those sponsors that were still converting great and consistently always has for me over and over. That is why I say, don't give up on em yet!

[Useless]

Well, I couldn't get them on phone this morning, so I ICQ'd Loryn. That went really well. I've some links to pull.

And the last bit of her second reply was just a little scroll down: http://www.maladaptedmedia.com/usele.../icq_lower.gif

Let me say this to any sponsor. Go ahead and be a sarcastic, condescending, little fuck with your affiliates. It's all good.

[Greenguy]

After reading that, I'm surprised the sites were even online when they were in Vegas

Must be nice to have the entire staff take, with News Years throw in, a 12 day vacation

[BlueQuartz]

i requested epassporte payments and it took TWO MONTHS and then I finally got an email from lensman himself saying he would let accounting know :|

super i said lol

always good to hear another opinion

I'll start paying attention to contradictory opinions when I get my check.

I don't think people understand that the fact that their checks arrive on time does nothing to convince me that Adult.com is worth promoting any longer. You fuck me once, you've fucked me for the last time. Unless your a particularly good fuck and you let me cum in your mouth. Then you can fuck me again.

[Useless]

CCBill's check is here!

Still nothing from the friendly folks at Reality Cash. Could it be the complicated spelling of my name? It's Mark with a K.

[Jim]

Have they given you any believable explanations? Or is it still just the Vegas deal they are trying to sell?

Here's Eric's exact email reply to me on 1/26:
-------------------------------
UW,

I understand your concern. The issue arose from the fact that Lensman likes
to personally see each check and sign each one. His way of getting to know
his affiliates. So the delay was due to him being in Vegas for the show and
this was a matter of respect for the webmasters, not one of disrespect.

Thank you for your continued business wish you a prosperous 2005,

Eric

Ahhh...looking at the checks. The final line of defense against fraud. Seems he could have just looked at the payout sheet before checks were printed though. I mean, come on...do people really need to wait to get paid because someone is on vacation?

I guess to answer my question, the reason for not getting paid has gone from bad to worse.

[Red]

As a former member of Lensman's crew, I can attest to the fact that he does sign all the checks, HOWEVER, the show's been over for almost a month now. No excuse for such a delay.

[Greenguy]

Useless Warrior - any updates?

[GenXer]

Yeah useless warrior--anything yet?

I do have a complaint about reality cash now too warrior. I signed up for one of their earned hosting programs and they told me they would set me up that day. It's been well over 2 weeks and they never set me up, so I had to go with my regular host despite the fact they promised. Now i see what you mean about slow responses.
