It doesn't happen THAT often but one of my pet hates is.... programs changing ownership, and the sites magically acquiring new "marketing methods"
For example, a stale revshare program which had been around for years was sold to another well known program, who DELETED all of the FHGs, redirected all of the gallery traffic to a generic 404 page (refid was supposed to be preserved but I am still finding links that do not carry it) which pops up to 5 consoles (some with links to external, uncredited sites sites). That's 5 consoles on a formerly clean revshare site!
Does a 404 page really convert better than a FHG?
