I am sorry, but I am strongly against this practice.
Very emphatically so!
In a public post others can weigh in and tell their experiences. All experiences are subjective. Some people make great money with programs others don’t.
If you, as a senior and experienced person, intervene privately and warn novices off programs that you have not done well with fior whatever reason, you are doing potential great damage to a program and an affiliate who may be able to make good money with them.
Just because you and/or some others do not make money with some place, does not mean others won’t.
I would like to strongly warn novices off placing too much credence to any one person’s experience, especially when told privately. It doesn’t prove anything.
There are some first class programs I don’t make a penny with. It means nothing at all.
If you can’t say it publicly, please don’t say it at all. Flaming in private without proof that all other affiliates agree with you is just as bad – as a matter of fact it could be construed as criminal, as in character assasination, slander and libel.
Please do not do this. Your opinion is not necessarily everyone’s reality.
