Agreed. The industry is in flux and when we emerge from this, one way or another, we will see who stuck it out during the bad times and made it through.
I think it is a time for all of us to stand firm together, to support each other and to flow with the punches in unison.
It is too easy to blame our partners, let’s not forget who the real bad guys are in this.
Things are just not the same since UIGEA, and I am quite sure all the programs wish things were back to what they were prior to prohibition.
Let’s each concentrate on making it all work (US affiliates, get political, call your congressman!!!!!!) and on guiding our sites through the quagmire. That goes for affiliates and programs alike.
I think placing the blame on our partners now is denial and also counterproductive.
The US has thrown a huge block into our industry. Sometimes you will see the more ethical programs doing worse – they are not signing up players when they don’t know how to process their winnings. My hat off to these programs! :hattip: I vote for ethics over greed any day. These places will emerge without having lost the trust of players. We do have to look at the big picture here, at the future.
