kind sir, I wouldn't want to infringe on your business. I'm looking for people unworthy of doing business with you.

I happen to know at least 2 very large programs who won't do buisness with certain other programs because of comments made by their owners.

Believe it or not, there are a lot of people who have enough money where they can pick and choose whom they want to do business with :) As an example: Curves. Very good exercise program for fatties like me. I won't join it because the founder puts a lot of $$$ into anti-abortion programs and I don't want MY money going there.

Honestly, people put way too much importance on board persona / personality. What gets posted on the forums is usually a magnified version of the persons actual personality. Hence why so many people that hate each other on a forum, meet in the "real" world and they end up becoming friends.

So, I put board posting in it's proper perspective. Also, I don't mind people with varying opinions on different topics. It'd be pretty damn boring if everyone agreed on every topic.

As for having enough money to pick and choose...heck, I have enough money from my non-adult businesses to drop being a webmaster altogether. What is important to me is whether or not I can trust the person I'm doing business with...now I've asked a few people about 12clicks and all the reports came back good. So that's all I need to know in that area.

Now, whether his program will interest me or not depends on the sites he has, etc...but I'm not about to let his board personality, his political beliefs, effect my business decisions.

I'd have to agree. I don't know anyone of any significance who won't do business with me.

this thread is getting decent.

Only because as soon as they refused to do business with you, you'd put them in the "insignificant" column :winkwink:

Look at all the companies that won't do buisness with Epic. Quite a few "significant" ones too.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Got little clue as to whether people care about "personalities" of program owners Mr B - tho marketing in a conventional manner usually seems to work best and it is not helpful to have baggage.

Only my :2 cents: - first criteria is: Who is the sponsor? How long have they been trading? Who controls/pays the cash? Is the operation stable? The niceties of sites and conversions come later.

Sponsor programs are ten a penny - among them are excellent sponsors with good track records on conversions, payments and customer support blah. It's a no-brainer in comparison to new programs.

12Clicks? Well... his personality mode obviously needed changing and he's on insincerity mode two now. Remains to be seen if mode three kicks in - there are plenty sponsors to chose from without the multiple personality problems. It's up to him what he wants to do and certainly wish that dear boy luck on this.

That is hitting close to the bone Peaches :winkwink:

It's only a matter of time for reality to hit :)

12 Clicks talks a lot of shit on the boards but it's never mindless or hateful. He might have his own perspective on things but they are at least backed up in an intelligent way. He's ok in my book.

I'd have to disagree with you on that one, PW. I'm still waiting for him to explain to me how I'm receiving the SSI he accused me of of living off of on another board.

I will do business with anyone who sends me biz. Its a 2 way street with me

Of course you will Roger - you are running a sponsor program :winkwink:

Why should you care about the background of an affiliate? You are in control of funds blah in that scenario and running a decent program on a biz level without bullshit.

I'm loath to correct my elders but I have a clear understanding of who's who and whom I'll be doing business with.

that certainly is the take of a certain type of person on the board. If there are enough of them, biz will be slow. I have more faith in this board than that.:winkwink:

having a soft spot for the elderly, I'd happily offer you a reward if you're able to quote me on that.
The new me will gladly run down to your pharmacy if you're out of certain items.

I agree that there are plenty of sponsors...12clicks is just one potential sponsor. Now, as I said, I asked some good people that I trust in the industry about him and they gave the stamp of approval.

The funny thing is, I would have not even bothered checking up on 12clicks if he didn't so regularly get slammed by people in anonymous nicknames or ones that were complaining about a few dollars. Curiosity got the better of me and I did a little checking and everything came back good. So, yeah, when he launches his program I'll check it out and see if its right for me.

As for multiple personalities, he's just playing a new game and it's funny to see people jumping on it. His best promotion is the fact that the people that can't stand him also can't ignore him and will never miss a chance to take a shot at him. They bump his threads, keep him in the spotlight, and they just play right into his brand of promotion. It's actually rather amusing.

12clicks would like to thank you for being a voice of reason and reminding people that among the business people here 12clicks name is gold.

12clicks would also like to please ask you to not give indepth explainations of his posting in regard to brand, spotlight, and promotion.:winkwink:

This thread is worth the price of membership..

LOL, moth to a flame...they couldn't stop even if they realized it.

i hope he has some new niches, the same crap has
been coming out from about the last 20 programs.

Now that is classic!!!! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh Keep bouncing!

lol, well...I'm not sure if the ignore function works on gfy as I've never used it, but if 12clicks was really an irritant to you, why wouldn't you just put him on ignore and not bother with him?

Instead you bump his threads, he plays you for a bit, gets a little more exposure for himself, his program, etc. You won't change people's opinion on 12clicks from the mere fact that he's a polarizing type guy...you either like him or you don't.

So, what do you get out of it? Nothing, you just waste your time on someone you don't like. Personally I'd rather spend my time in other pursuits.

12clicks is thinking about transexualdirtyfeet.com

I'm older than you? Judging by the recent picture of you shown on the other board I thought I was younger. Maybe I've just led an easier life :thumbsup

or perhaps your avoidence of the pharmacy has expanded to avoidance of the opthamologist as well:thumbsup

Now that the troll has levelled to his usual bullshit mentality and bumped this thread - I'll respond to you.

I was ignoring the walking personality disorder - already said anthing there was to say a few days back - you are the guy who was doing the thread bumping.

Already said, - I don't care what the fuck that lad does - it's none of my biz, why should I "bother"? And.. no, he may be the way he is - but he don't deserve to be added to an ignore list with utter retards - even I'd give him more cred than that :1orglaugh

Didn't take him long at all, did it. :pimp

And he's even forgotten to talk in the 3rd person. I should have bet a shorter time on that one - I only had 2 days and it didn't even last 1 :(

Mr. Blue, the moth has arrived.

12clicks wonders if you can collect bets from imaginary friends.

MPD can be like that Peaches. It's hard to deal with a multiple personality disfuction - either on a chatboard or in any business relationship. :winkwink:

While on the subject of second owner cars - In case Peaches was thinking of buying a car from 12Clicks, - Webby thinks this may not be a good idea. Any guarantees/warranties would change with the personalities :1orglaugh

How are you my dear fellow? What bets and friends are you imagining now? Just stay cool and take the meds and this will pass.
