the truth will be somewhere in the middle, again....
He actually says in 1st post
- When I joined AWE, they were running their $222 PPS
So from my understanding you actually say you joined AWE for this $222 contest and used your network of members on your own site as cows to cash 222 dollars and in return give your members a place on a VIP and pay back some discount to them. All in all, you still would be able to pay back the whole $99 dollar package back if you would cash in $222 a sale.
Sounds like a creative use of milking the system, not sure if you discussed this with AWE before you actually started to do it like this. So perhaps they dont like to see a creative abuse like this on their PPS, honestly their rules and you cant do jack shit.
The way how you did this and how you describe this makes me think there is a lot more behind this then you want to make us believe.
But will see how it plays out here, if it ever / uberhaupt gets plaid out.
