Just got an email reply from a person supposed to be of some help. Oh, man! When you just think you could not get pissed off more, they simply keep surprising you!

I just had a ridiculous situation where an affiliate manager demanded (?!) to implement their "iframe" banner on a high traffic website, in order to get access to their promo content. Did anyone mention "security concerns"?

It is funny when you had in mind that their company had some shady background (bells and whistles here ). Never heard of someone being able to promote a program without a decent promo content, and they had demands in order to provide it. Yes, you've heard it right: "they had DEMANDS". Ironic, isn't it?

My advise if you ever had an experience with some unrealisting expectation from a delusional affiliate program: just ask them politely to fuck off! Their affiliate program can not live without webmasters' traffic, it's not the other way around.
