Just my :2 cents:

I wanted to get his pimp id first, my assumption was that my explanation would deter him from wanting to talk about it any more, so I wanted to be sure we could determine who he was first.
when someone says "my friend tried to join, and when he gets to the secondary processor he noticed my pimp id had been removed" that raises a huge flag. Anyways, I have his pimp id so I have no issues responding.
here is a quote from alardon
"part of url was:
https://wnu.com/secure/services/?api...&reseller=p i mp"MYID"
so, lets read the link code, well start at the end, that's where the meat is, it says &reseller=pi mp"MYID" reseller = the reseller, and "MYID" is not a house account, it's what alardon put in there when he stripped out his account number so that we would not know who he is. I am sure Alardon could agree that he himself took his account number off this link, why would it say "MYID"? there is no situation where we would insert "MYID" there, if we wanted credit, we would be putting in a house account. Anyways, his id is missing because he removed it to remain anonamous, and this is clearly the part called "reseller".
there's a bunch of stuff in there that doesn't mean much to this threads topic: pi_code=bgeu711t2eg that's a product code, po_code=eu17e32, that's an upsell/cross sell code.
https://wnu.com/secure/services/? that's epochs secure pay page location, etc, here is the only other part that matters, and the part Alerdon is saying is us shaving:
&x_rf_code=pimp99100-ft, now most of you know that PimpRoll has a super rev share program that pays on original sale, cross sale, cam sales, everything the customer buys. It's a great program, but PPS is still very popular. We denote these programs with "pt" for partnership, or "ft" for flat rate (pps). as you can see, Alerdon is promoting ft - PPS (appended to the pimp id) As it is pay per sale, you get paid for the sale, you do not also get PPS on the cross sale! &x_rf_code = X Ref Code = Cross Sale Referral Code.
there is no secret there, on PPS you get paid for the sale, you don't get paid twice if the person takes a cross sale, if he promoted partnership, he would get paid a %age of both, it's the way it has always been, no shaving!
As i said, maybe a perfectly legitimate question, but he raised all the flags:
- brand new user
- first post ever
- Stripped his pimp id from the link to remain anonymous
- Admitted his friend joined using his link code
- claimed a customer (admittedly his friend) had the foresight to come to him and say "hey I tried to join a porn site through one of your links, and I noticed that when I get redirection to the sites secondary processor, they strip your reseller id from a portion of url, however they leave it in another portion of the url.
I'd think most of you would understand why I wanted his pimp ID.
as I said before, I don't think Alardon could argue about that fact that he himself removed his pimp id before posting and anyone from epoch is welcome to come in here and affirm that "reseller" means reseller.
