First of all:

1) The stats are the worst thing I have ever seen.
2) You go to signup for an advertiser and you get denied for not having a history with THAT advertiser. Hmm how do I get a history without being allowed to signup?
3) Here are 3 emails I got over the span of 5 days.

First email = Thanks for joining XXXX advertisers, here is how you promote us
Second email (2 days later) = We are no longer accepting affiliate traffic, please remove links
Third Email (next day) = we have decided to begin accepting affiliate traffic, please add links


The banners and promo material are straight from 1998. I think I will stick to the domain parking programs ;)

No wonder these mainstream boards make the gfy drama queens look like nice kids.
