Yeah, I'm totally *not* defending this or any sponsor that breaks agreements with webmasters (I'd link to another thread that was on here about a big camsite sponsor fucking one webmaster royally recently but it was deleted
), and I could be totally wrong about them being ready to go down in flames. They *did* just revamp clickcash, which I thought was a pretty promising sign since every time I log IN to clickcash I am expecting it to just . . . disappear because it HAS been so good -- TOO good -- for so long. Or maybe they're funding their retooling by fucking a bunch of you guys. Who knows. Nothing would surprise me. I don't know what the truth is except that big payouts weren't built to last.
My point is just that none of this surprises me, and people (not you) sitting in here acting like the only reason they can't find sponsors that really pay out $40+ on free joins forever is that sponsors are just not upholding their end of the bargain instead of recognizing that promoting ANYTHING that pays out that much on nothing is taking a huge risk. Instead they act like they're ENTITLED to that and are just AGHAST when the bottom falls out from under programs like that.
I love getting giant per-sale payouts as much as the next guy and weep when they disappear, but in the same way I would at a gambling table. Promoting porn IS A GAMBLE. Your streak could end any time when you are selling products you don't own.
