Excellent Work Integrity!

1. Without communication we cant solve issues or provide arbitration.
2. Without a relationship there is NO incentive for a program to work with us when there is a problem.The recent terms and conditions fiascos are an excellent example. Had we immediately thrown every program out at the first sign of trouble NONE of them would have come back to the table and gone back to non predatory terms. Instead we have maintained communication, they COULDNT deny that affiliates had problems with these new terms IT WAS OBVIOUS. And because they are still certified partners they have an INCENTIVE and a mandate to respond to the affiliates here at our community.
I GUARANTEE you if they were NOT certified partners they WOULDNT respond to our concerns or fix anything.
3. These are programs with TENS of THOUSANDS of affiliate webmasters. Almost everyone here has or has had an account with Referback, Fortune or Vegas Partners. It’s in our members best interests for us to do everything possible to maintain a working relationship with these programs. Its something we would prefer to do if at all possible. Until we feel there is no chance a program will work fairly with their affiliates we try to keep them on board and accessible to the community.
Do you really feel your friends are not intelligent enough to read the discussions here and determine which programs THEY want to work with?
Would it have been better if we DIDNT have the threads and discussions about Referback, Fortune and Vegas Partners here? Then the webmasters you did send us wouldnt KNOW THERE WERE PROBLEMS that we are trying to work out.
I believe knowledge is ALWAYS better then ignorant bliss. I think webmasters are savy enough to read the threads here and make informed decisions on who they should and shouldnt work with.
