A lot of people are "forgetting" their original "entire marketing scheme" now that money is getting tight. I've had at least two different revshare programs threaten to cut off my old rebills due to "inactivity" on my part, which they defined as lack of new sales (I kept sending the same amount of traffic, they just stopped being able to convert it). Surely you all remember the old 1990s revshare pitch -- the idea was that you could send a lot of traffic, get a revshare stream built up, and then go lounge on a beach somewhere and drink umbrella drinks while the money rolls in. Nope, it wasn't ever realistic, but that was the marketing. And now, what? If you stop sending new sales, we term your account and eat all the rebills you spent ten years building up?

Fucking convenient.
