One of the main reason for the terms and conditions is to protect sponsors from being sued. They arent there to gurantee webmasters will get paid. Quite the opposite.

Oldtimer - I understand their terms of service - however if three signups come in and they decide (unbeknownst to you) that you are going to be paid for only one of them - but their terms of service says they pay for all traffic ...yadda...yadda...yadda....but not for fraud and spam and what not... If those three signups weren't spam - were good credit cards - have rebilled for three years and what not, I'd love to see this challenged in court and a judge agreeing that they can change their minds like their underwear (or depending on their budget for the next show) on how many legal joins to pay you for - especially if they kept you on their program after the fact and not kicked you out.
Does Visa/Mastercard decide to keep the money and not pay the merchant 2 out of 3 times?
I could be wrong oldtimer, I'm just not agreeing with taking it up the ass when it's not on my terms.
If you lead us to believe that we are being paid for traffic to your program - don't fuck us over - plain and friggen simple. Cut your costs - rework your budgets and live within your means. Pay people the sales that they are sending you.
