HEY FLING!! Are you shaving/stealing traffic????????

[spacedog]

For over a week now I have been watching your custom iframes on my sites..

OFTEN, I notice that the iframe that I set up is not on my site, but instead a different iframe.

The iframe that is supposed to be on my site is this one;


But randomly & often, instead of the above iframe, this one is displayed.


When moused over, or clicked, this is the id for this iframe,



Why are the iframes randomly switched WITHOUT AFFILIATE ID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RobertD]

Just noticed this yesterday, was going to put these on my list to pull down and replace.

Holy shit, I think I will park my sig here.

[st0ned]

Wow, that is fucking whacked. I've always wondered about the shaving, one week sales are on track and the next they are dead.

[V_RocKs]

Time to bring out the drama lama.

[L-Pink]

Get 'em spacedog, get 'em ... grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[SarahLLO]

Yeah, my Fling stats have gone from reliably good to wonky lately - thus why I've been testing out a few other dating programs.

Hope this can be explained.

I-frames is a good way to fuck with your traffic.

They can change it on the fly.

[sicone]

hmmm, very interesting

[High Class Grass]

oh lal la la. I can believe it. Spacedog better off the net

[JFK]

Time to bring out the drama lama.

need a few of them tonite

[spooky181]

That explains a lot then. Time to pull all my links...

[ridikuloz]

wow...........

[Tempest]

FHGs... iframe ads... plug-ins.... etc. etc. etc... using anything like that provided by an external source opens you up to being shaved more than if you do it all yourself...

To try and avoid that I've been moving to hosting my own versions of FHGs... I've also built my own webcam iframe type tool that allows me to promote any cam sponsor I want... I just need to add in the linking and then grab pics/bio page linking etc. from the cam site and integrate it into my system and away I go..

Next up is the same thing for dating programs.

[profiteer]

Time to bring out the drama lama.

Good idea VRocks. Can someone make a proper DRAMA LAMA IMAGE that can be posted to mark official GFY dramas.

[HouseHead]

i fuckin hope not

[spacedog]

Probably a glitch

[Tempest]

Probably a glitch

no no no.. programming error....

seriously.. it could very well be a programming "error"... sort of... but other than laziness and thinking "oh that should never happen anyway" on the part of the programmer (which is a very common thought process), there's no reason the affiliate code isn't in the links...

[DBS.US]

[teksonline]

never a glitch on a check though, like having an extra 0 added to the end :/

[DavieVegas]

still no explanation?????????

[pornask]

cupcakes are love, mkay?

I accidentally took their iframe down while putting up another banner....But after looking at the stats, I wasn't missing much.

[nastyman]

spacedog thanks for the heads up, we added servers this weekend, looks like one of the servers added is not passing variables through.

we are fixing the issue right now and will issue credits accordingly.

our goal is to make the webmasters as much money as possible. I think our track record proves that. we will advise shortly.

thank you.

[IllTestYourGirls]

One of the many reasons pulled most of my fling banners.

[Tanker]

I checked and rechecked my links I didn't find this happening on my sites but I have seen a huge decrease in my sales

[Nicky]

Sign up for Loaded (in sig ofcourse ^^) and hit up their great reps for some custom stuff that you can host your self, makes sure stuff like this doesn't happen.....

[nastyman]

this problem has been corrected. it was found in 1 of the 50+ fling geo servers. we are calculating credits and will place news in the webmaster area.

thank you once again spacedog, your account will receive special credits for identifying the problem

[DVTimes]

glad itsd sorted.

i love fling

[Diligent]

GOD DAMN that would have been nasty, if it would have been actual shaving that is... . . .

[Fat Panda]

Glad it was fixed.. figured it could be a geo issue since the iframe said Local Area instead of name of town/city..

Do you know which account is mine?

348-132-803 is my icq

How many accounts do you have?


I have like 50

[spacedog]

How many accounts do you have?


I have like 50

I only have one.. but spacedog isn't my username with them.

Why would anyone need more than one?

[papill0n]

1 in 50 ? Sounds like it was alot more than that. I bought an ad spot and was testing my link with the seller and 3 out of 5 impressions yielded the iframe without my code.

[TheAgent]

On a different note Flings website sucks

For over a week now I have been watching your custom iframes on my sites...

Call me Captain Obvious but nobody has pointed this out yet... contradiction in bold.

Ok so there was a 2% chance of someone getting the non affiliate credited iframe.

... and it only happened this weekend so say Fri Sat Sun Mon max = 4 days

Therefore affiliates should be expecting 8% of their average daily earnings as a bonus, so for a $100 a day guy he should be getting $8 MAX credit.

Lucky it hasn't been going on for a week or more and affected over half the servers as that would mean a MIN of $350 credit for that same $100 a day guy.

edit Ben says it was more like 60% not 2% so that would mean a minimum $420 credit in my above hypothetical scenario

[wheat]

I thought Fling was basically just an upsell for naked.com anyway.

its the second time i see that from you in last months... whats going on? you take some traffic and then you shut up people giving some credits to the guy that post the thread.. what about the others affiliates that had same problem and didnt noticed that problem... you going to credit all the affiliates?
