				 |  Medium Pimpin to MOVE OFF THE MPA2 System! Medium Pimpin Program Announcement  Heads up to all Medium Pimpin Affiliates, As you know, we use the MPA2 program, within the next week or so, we will be migrating to a new program. All individual MPA2 links codes will be automatically redirected utilizing Apache's mod_rewrite function, therefore, you will not need to change any link codes or hosted galleries you currently have live. This will remain in effect permanently. All current webmaster data will be imported into the new program, including all rebills. There should only be two things that will affect you as a webmaster during the migration: 1) You will potentially have to login with your webmaster code (i.e.,100000) versus your username. 2) While all current MPA2 links will be redirected to your new MP link code automatically, it will be best for you to use the new link codes for all new links you create going forward. These will be available on the MP site once we launch in the coming days. All payouts will continue to be paid out by us on time as always. We have been working diligently over the last 30 days to get this right, and make it as seamless as possible for you, our valued webmasters. We also have major re-designs, new sites and plenty of new things ready to go, we have held back until we had the MPA2 issue resolved. Look for big things coming very, soon! If you have any questions please let us know. |

				 | Will this affect webmaster referral revenue in any way? In other words, will I still be making money off of the webmasters I referred while you were using MPA2? |

 Anyone who writes software for paysites that includes a built-in shave function ought to be shot, pissed on and bitch slapped, not necessarily in that order. Fucking retards get what they deserve as far as I'm concerned. If a fucker can't see that shaving is wrong, that fucker is a retard.

 I have been programming in adult since 1998 and was writing cascading billing software since about 1999. There was a lot of hype about MPA 2 and yet in vegas I heard more people bitching about it then praising it. I dont follow the threads, but im sorry to say you cannot just mass produce software for everyone. Content management, billing, affiliate software etc has to be scalable, configurable and modular. From the sounds of it (although I must say I have never seen the code, nor used the software myself), it seems from the people i have talked to the software just does fit the needs of most programs these days and the costs are high. Good luck to you guys, I might even run over to your site and promote your program when you guys get the new shit going. peace.

 Once installed it was on our program we asked to have the feature removed, they were able to remove the main shave but not the shaver per webmaster, if I knew this going in I would not have used it at all.

 I am taking this opportunity to slam the fuck out of them. Do you blame me? Trust me, those sponsors who created that demand are far from being off the hook here, they hold much of the responsibility as well, many of them will come to pay dearly for their theivery. That's right, shaving is theft, period. I will say it again so those of you who are hard of cognitive ability can have a shot at understanding it...... SHAVING IS THEFT Last time I checked, theft was illegal in just about every country in the world. Penalties vary.

				 | Its not just the MPA program that allows you to do this. ANY program can do this unless audited by a third party. Even processors like Epoch, CCbill, Jettis, etc. can be set up to shave sponsors. At some point you have to trust a company if your going to do business with. Or else, process on your own... Any programmer who writes an affiliate software can set this type of script to show the percentage they only want to show. The best way for you to be assure or have some faith in a company is : a) see the amounts they pay out. How can companies pay out $35, $45, $50 or even $75 per sign up when if an average members lets say shall convert 3 months even at $29.95, thats almost $90! And after expense, cost of operation, bandwidth, content, etc. Why would they be in this business. b) meet the owners of affiliate programs, ask others who know them, sense how they are and if you dont feel like you can trust them, then dont do business with them! At some point you have to trust in a company. Its like us trusting third party processors like Epoch, CCbill, Jettis, etc. They also can shave, right? c) Try multiple affiliate programs and see whose checks are getting bigger! :-) cause at end of day, your traffic will convert somewhat the same everywhere. If one affiliate your traffic is converting 1:800 and another is 1:400 to a similar niche site, then why send it to the first company. Anyways, at some point you have to work with a company you trust, like doing business with and see that your success is growing. Scums who shave others, will be shaved themselves in their lives at some point in time. Straight business is always good business and those are the ones who will still be around 5 years or 10 years from now. Sincerely, Raffi www.AdultLounge.com
