That's what this program does, even when they stop doing it for a while. It's their nature. They've been doing it since Paolo sold it and will keep doing so. It's why Tampa left.
But yeah. You're right. Apologies again. I didn't really try to come across as a nice guy so I deserve to get ripped too.
P.S though I don't agree it's not the affiliate Manager's job to buffer for you not getting your check. I have never seen a company where there's any issue with asking the manager what's up with the checks. But most companies do post a contact for accountants. And when their is a problem, rarely does the affiliate manager keep lying to you. I've even had a couple tell me straight out they don't know what's going on. Then you usually end up getting the check pretty quickly.

Appreciated and accepted.
I just think it is a red flag if a company, adult or otherwise, lets a marketing rep front for accounting. I know that is how many handle their biz. I just think it is a disaster waiting to happen, either it is a recipe for bad communication, or a sign of the typical "keep shit going until we successfully burn the program and move to the next" approach seen all to often in this biz.
