Actually, this was just brought to my attention, and I know something about it.

We split our lightspeedcash server into two servers. One to receive traffic, and one for affiliate stats.

During this split, for about a day, there was a mistake in the "banners" section of our admin area, showing the linking code as "http://stats.lightspeedcash..."

It was corrected as soon as it was noticed. (about 1-2 days TOPS)

The linking codes in the "linking codes" section were correct all along, as a different program was used to display those.

Battuss obviously used the linking codes given to him in the banners section, obviously he didn't pull a new linking code out of his ass.

I fixed this problem myself, and I casually mentioned it to one of our programmers, but she must have forgotten about it. I don't think I ever mentioned it to Richard.

It was also our mistake not to email our affiliates about the error. I had problem corrected and I only recieved one email about the 404 which was quickly explained.

Battuss, you know me and you know I'm not out to "screw" anyone. I understand your frustration, and when you contact me on icq (27295695) I will work out a compensation for your lost traffic/income.

I think it sucked that you came to this board the way you did. After I personally told you in Amsterdam that if you ever need anything from Lightspeedcash you can bring it to me.
