I understand what you're saying. But I didn't see those numbers before and now that I do, I'm concerned and have questions. When it comes to a "normal" program, they don't show me how many signups occur and then how many actually make it thru the scrubbing etc. So why should this be different? That was basically why I suggested flashcash not show it. And look what's happened. WMs are fixated and frustrated that they see all these signups occuring that they don't get paid for.
Also, the question has to be asked, why does this case require different reporting unless there's something about it that could be abused. On the one hand I'd like full disclosure from the programs. But on the other hand, my time is better spent building traffic, tweaking advertising and focusing on making more sales. At some point one has to "trust" the programs. What's that phrase? Ignorance is bliss?
Anyway, whether or not the numbers are displayed is a different discussion. You said elsewhere that my 25% is a hell of a lot worse then it should be. So now that I know it's out of whack I have a reason to talk to FC about why that might be the case and maybe what could be done about it.
