last i checked i think Playboy is a global brand that is trademarked.... and most probably listed in their TOS. Playboy is similar to the Blockbuster examples here.
the phrase " crackwhore confessions" is it trademarked? is it in your TOS?
if it is trademarked then you can likely protect other people from bidding on it. If not then you can only add it to your TOS which prevents YOUR affiliates from bidding on it, which is retarded because then other people will use that phrase in ppc to send to your competitors.
you so don't get it. Now that you stopped Shoehorn from doing it, someone else is going to come along and do what he was doing and send it to another program. At least you were making something off of it at no expense to your own. Now you will make nothing, plus all the bad exposure that you are getting here because you make up your TOS and decide to pay affiiliates as you go.... good job!
