We both want the same things, and we are willing to work with you. Please do it through or ticket system though, because we can the assign the task to the correct people in our company.
Your argument for why you want the adzones disabled though, is not good enough. Please explain why what we're doing is wrong? Should we encourage people to stay at sites with pirated content? Or help them get the hell out of there as soon as possible and towards content that costs?
If you REALLY aren't benefiting from the pirate ads then why not disable them? And come on this "we leave them up for the good of the industry" thing is just bullshit.

I don't know what is and isn't true but saying "we terminated that affiliate for X" while leaving the links up and accepting the traffic to secretly profit from it still is one of the oldest tricks in the book. It's probably been documented on this forum at least a thousand times.

Want to help the industry? Keep the adzones up but replace it with an "ad" which helps push the consumer towards avoiding piracy in the industry. Maybe something like "Support content creators so they can bring you more hot content. Purchase your porn!" Then it's clear the as was terminated and it really does help the industry.
