Agree. The porn business changed a lot with the introduction of Tubes. No longer were search engines listing TGPs or Blogs the same way, no longer were people going to pay for porn, no longer were sponsors bothering with affiliates unless they were very big.

Affiliates are why this forum existed but the big porn powers that be killed the affiliate model when they started all their Xsales bullshit. After that the places was dead so people started posting BS..
One thing is certain it's not the bullshit that killed this place, it was the guys who killed off all the affiliates... :2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

Affiliate killed themselves off. It was natural selection. The cost of affiliates could only be supported in a growing market, once most people in the West had good connections new subscribers were gone. So you were fighting over a similar client base.
At 50% off, the sales price, and rising plus every thing for free, sample, galleries, hosting and support. The costs of running most sites made it unprofitable to maintain affiliates unless big and no worries. Add the costs of new content, running a site, processing, design, etc and site were making less a sign up than affiliates so unless they were big. It wasn't worth it.
