Hi again,
well its (to me) extremely obvious that this was a deliberate act … which therefore deserves no understanding.
It demands an action that will make me feel comfortable to promote them any further.
anybody that’s been around this niche for more than a couple weeks knows what they are doing when they send out an email from the casino that the player was signed at … promoting a different casino and not adding the deserving affs link code.
Shuffling their feet around and saying oh gee, I didn’t know any better simply will not fly with me.
that said, the only possible solution that’s going to make me feel comfortable promoting them any further is to credit across the board.
btw – no I don’t promote referspot and in fact that was the reason they fell off my site. 
edited to add:
btw, I was my first sign up with this program so I don’t think I can be starting out any further in the hole than I would be now … so its not like I’m thinking I’m going to be cleaning up by getting them to credit across the board.
