I am sure it was cleared up but can we please have chrome back to verify that everything is indeed kosher with him.

As people say always more than one side and I would just like to hear from other side too to feel that it has indeed been fixed.

Brujah 06-19-2008 07:42 PM
Whatever the reason, it's the right move and I'm glad they didn't let ego's or anything get in the way. Good thing to hear, from Brad and from VS.

421Fill 06-19-2008 07:44 PM
gotta say this isn't what I expected when the thread got locked or deleted or moved or whatever happened to it.

I can concur. I'd like to hear his side too. This could be just a ploy beings the thread magically disappeared and chrome got banned.

That's right. I forgot he was banned. I was wondering why I didn't see his name in here thanking them.

Kard63 06-19-2008 08:13 PM
Goodjob vs, no one is right all the time so how you deal with being wrong means a lot.

Samantha_Luvcox 06-19-2008 08:21 PM
So, in total, how many people where banned over this before it was finally resolved. GFY showed its true colors with this one.

He posted on other boards where he didn't get banned for a legitimate gripe. He confirmed that they called him and resolved the matter. He's happy.

high five!

MediaGuy 06-19-2008 08:46 PM
This is an excellent position and correction to the situation and I commend you guys for it.

I held back from any position or posting or bumping of threads for the very reason that there seemed to be a horrendous, possibly premature backlash involved in that contentious thread.

I'm also glad to see I was right to hold back. It would have been in poor taste and a little vulturous to kick someone when they were down, to hamstring a competitor just because of human error and popular, and unjustified, vindictiveness and mob mentality.

Live video chat is a very special part and niche of adult entertainment, and we should either stick it to the nay-sayer, or stick together, in the long run.

Good move, VideoSecrets.

:D

This graph clearly states:

DO NOT FUCK WITH AFFILIATES


A lesson to many... yeap :winkwink:

After Shock Media 06-19-2008 08:55 PM
Thanks brujah for that.

+1 vote to unban chrome, was very unnecessary to ban him

I tend to agree - and am glad that VS made the choice to agree with webmasters in how their terms were interpreted. Though this whole matter should not have gotten this far - hope VS recovers from this and can move on since it will stick in the minds of webmasters for a long long time.

OY 06-19-2008 09:11 PM
Interesting. Like I said in my original post, VS paid us more than 5 years after we stopped sending traffic so I have NEVER doubted their integrity one bit. And I did not even know I was owed money. :)

In this case it?s clear that what is in the best interest of Video Secrets, our thousands of performers and our affiliates is a policy which goes out of its way to pay affiliates for life.

Glad you guys made the right decision!

F-U-Jimmy 06-19-2008 10:30 PM
My congratulations go to all the GFY members who stuck by Chrome. Had it not been for you guys i think the results would have been way different to the one in this thread. It goes to show what is possible if everyone sticks together drops the hate and egos and stick up for what's right, kudos to you guys :thumbsup:thumbsup

18teens 06-19-2008 10:42 PM
Congrats to Chrome for finally getting paid what he has had coming all along.

BluMedia 06-19-2008 10:43 PM
Video Secrets are a great bunch of guys. Kudos for taking care of this.

KillerK 06-19-2008 10:51 PM
congrats to VS for doing the right thing!

TheSenator 06-19-2008 10:54 PM
I told you that cooler heads would prevail.


We webmaster are many...when some does us wrong...we stick together.

Yeah, right. First they fuck up by fucking an affiliate over and then they fuck up even worse by trying to cover it up.

Kiss their asses if you want. My opinion of VS hasn't changed a bit.

cyberpod 06-19-2008 11:10 PM
good move... glad to see something good came of this!

While we will continue to hope that sending an affiliate thousands of dollars a month warrants continued promotion we have decided to amend our Terms & Conditions in favor of a LIFETIME PAYOUT.

The affiliate in question will receive any and all monies that were withheld for the 7 months his account was in suspension. In addition, he will continue to receive his commissions on a monthly basis as long as the customer he referred continues to make purchases; regardless of whether he sends another click.

We have posted an amendment to our Terms & Conditions clearly stating that we will not suspend an account for lack of promotional activity.

It has been said that decisions are always correct when you make them, but they can stop being correct soon thereafter. In this case it?s clear that what is in the best interest of Video Secrets, our thousands of performers and our affiliates is a policy which goes out of its way to pay affiliates for life.

We hope that those of you who made some very out of line personal attacks in the other threads will think twice before doing that again. There are always two sides to every controversy and while the wheels of progress sometimes move slowly we feel they have stopped on a positive outcome for all.

Back to Business. :thumbsup

Not that there was another one, but smart move. Now I would suggest a serious PR campaign to get you out of the shitter. You have bright minds at that company, I'm sure you'll come up with something.

Make sure it is profound and felt industry wide - and this will all be behind you in 90 days

JenniDahling 06-19-2008 11:30 PM
Great form VS Media! Its always a win win situation when a sponsor does right by their affiliates!:thumbsup

I know Homegrown has taken much longer to move on some issues due to the same type of structure, so I can relate to their pain there. The important thing at the end of the day is that they did do the right thing, and it wasn't years later.

blah blah blah (no offense jact!)

Look at all you people in this thread....LMAO....the politics here is just to funny.

VideoSecrets has been around WAAAYYYY to long to NOT know the game. The fact that they're veterans in this industry and a big company make's it even worst. They knew better, end of story. I mean, lifetime renewals is pure logic and not something that has to be taught to a company like Video Secrets. If they had to be taught or told that you can't just strip someones money away because they stopped sending traffic, well.....i don't buy it one bit. They're way to smart for that or they wouldn't still be around today.

But regardless, glad to see those who deserve their money, get it.

whoever is in charge of all this bullshit should get his ass fired
