InactiveThat does it!
All my deals with Coins are off.

InactiveAn old friend is returning to run the aff program – but I’ll let them announce it.
Not that I had them up anyhow except for paid advertising, but as of now everything has come down – especially since the contract has run out.
Somehow, 1 player in 4 months… and only just today… strikes me as being a little bit strange.

InactiveLol Spear – you know it and I know it. So I guess it won’t be much of an announcement.
I was referring to my deal of silence regarding my “extortion” . It’s off as far as I am concerned.
From now on it’s the whole thruth.

Inactivethere goes any guilt i may have had about pulling their spots months ago. i had had a good relationship with john, and felt like i should’ve called and talked through the whole non-performance issue, but now . . . i’m ok with it all.
and a by the way, pokerCoins has one poker room, Big Bet, and they stopped taking real money play this week.

vladcizsolMemberWell at least Connie is back…. She was always pleasant to work with.
What I dont appreciate is the “keep em in the dark” attitude towards affiliates.

InactiveEveryone at Casino Coins has always be great to deal with. Unfortunately I never had the chance to deal with John, but when Flora & Connie were there they were great.
But when it comes down to it, facts are this industry is increasingly competitive and affiliates cannot waste money or ressources promoting an under performing program.
Maybe Casino Coins should call it quits with Odds On and move over to RTG software. They’ve always had a great staff, awesome promotions, multiple competitions. In the end the problem lies with the software and players will not see beyond that. They’ve lost a significant market share from switching to Odds On, in my opinion they should write off the investment and loss, move on, and reclaim the thrown they lost.
Only then could I seriously consider giving them the exposure I used to. As it is now I send around 400 hits a month and I’m lucky to get 1 player. My earnings are 1/70th of what they used to be. (yes 1/70th!) I really miss those large checks from what used to be my biggest earner.
As for the communication, I agree that these things should be prioritized.

vladcizsolMemberSince they are owned by English Harbor Group which also owns OddsOn I dont see them moving.
Even though it could increase their bottom line they are enamored with the concept of not paying Royalties.
If this were not true they would have NEVER left Microgaming and even then once they saw their Gross Revenues drop by 80% over a three month period they could have went back, but chose not to.
Penny wise and pound foolish won the day then and now with them.

InactiveI’m aware of the relationship (or should i same mutual ownership) between Odds On & Casinos Coins.
The ties with Microgaming are severed. There is no doubt that they cant go back.
Yes they have lost a bundle of money with Odds On. But in the end the biggest business decision a company makes is not how much money has been lost or invested in a certain product, but how much more could be earned in the future by doing something differently. It’s extremely difficult to say hell with it, but a person has to. They gave it enough time and it hasn’t worked out. They have to move on.
The only way I can see them making a comeback is if they switched software, and I realize the ‘odds’ of that taking place are next to nothing.

InactiveThey have also lost a lot of players with the 40+ debacle.
They did eventually decide to pay up – but not until major damage was done to their previously good reputation.
These messes tend to get shrugged off – but I have been watching a lot for some time and many casinos never quite rebound from such message boards messes.

Guestthey’ve always sucked for me.
I do still have them up in a couple of places, and I guess I’ll get around to taking them down completely.
I too; cannot afford to carry a program.
CC isn’t the only one to come down either.
Recently brightshare has sunk to new lows; in terms of income.
I like the shit out of Lloyd; but when a program can’t even pay for the traffic I send them…. they gotta come down.
BS (I still love the initials) fell off a good bit (for me) a long time ago; but these last 3 months have been pitiful. I cannot help thinking that 100% of income is not being reported/tracked … whatever you want to call it.
I have allslots/alljackpots featured prominently on my slots site which is about 3 months into some decent traffic, some free some bought, while at the same time having SLotLand up in fewer, lesser quality spots; and yet with all that working against them; not too mention the fact that they offer about 1/10th the amount of games and are a no-download;
SlotLand still managed to out-perform the afore 2 mentioned, slot-targeted, Microgaming sites.
What the hell is up with that? Its rediculous!
BS was a contender at one time in my eyes. What a shame they’ve fallen so far that I now only have about 5 of their sites still listed, and of those; only two prominently; allslots and alljackpots.
They will really need a good March to ever see May from the pages on my sites.

Inactivelike I said a few times …
$lotland has no flash but they will show you cash
many others are ALL flash and NO cash
its a pity that they haven’t expanded into the other casino games.

InactiveGood Connie is back now that could help she was always one to listen to people and get things done.
As for what I make with cc it is pathetic and not to mention the players lost when they changed software on our the affiliates side for all us old school rollers …
I know it hurt quite a few of us and our marketing cash income and ever since I have been very very cautious with the cc group to the point where they get very few good spots on my sites …
If I am in a pissy mood I whack there links during updates and put up better performing casinos. Kind funny how whacking somebody can make you feel so damn good ROFLMAO
