You've had plenty of time to answer this Dirty D.

I second it. Guy is a kick ass affil!

I can't believe I got to the end and shoehorn still has not been paid.

:thumbsup

Epic Thread... carry on.

Bump for the not paying thread

What does Dirty D have to gain at this point from paying Johnny Shoehorn? We have all seen this before. Dirty D. says: "Ok, I'll pay you"
And then it doesn't go away at all. Instead all these bloodthirsty nicknames STILL try to ruin his business. I can already envision the threads: "Oh, so now that Dirty D paid him all is forgiven? NO! He's still blah-blah-blah"

I think this has gone too far. Totally. And now I'm looking forward to Johnny coming to Internext and wearing one of those shirts and confronting Dirty D. I am also curious if Will is going to be there to see what happens as well. Should be interesting. I always wondered what would happen if somebody came face to face with someone else after the things that have been said on here.

I'm looking forward to it.

For the record, I like both guys. I've known Dirty D for many years...since BEFORE he had an affiliate program. I think he may have gotten pissed about the adword on his domain name. And instead of contacting Shoehorn and shitcanning him officially he went about it wrong.

And I think turning this into an attack on Dirty D's business is wrong too. Not that it matters because quite frankly no serious people give a shit about threads like this.

I was just amazed earlier on when people were going on and on about "marketing". It was buying a google ad word folks. That is NOT marketing.

I didn't say that Dirty D should or shouldn't have paid Shoehorn. I was addressing the morons who think they know this business.

By the way...reading the conversation...I can tell you why Dirty D keeps using the word "type-ins" Anybody that uses NATS can tell you that. ANY sale you get that is NOT an affiliate sale shows as a "type-in"

He's just saying what he sees the sale as. I see them that way too when I look at my numbers. Of course he understands the sale came from Google. Just sayin'....if you guys are gonna gang up and try to nail him to the cross, at least do it the right way.

I hope you guys get it worked out. But if not...it'll be entertaining as hell to see what happens if Shoehorn shows up at Internext.

JFK, get the cameras ready.

Good points, yeah I think Dirty D is standing on principal. That prog has to have a pretty good payout every month and I have never heard word one about Dirty D not paying ever.

Hell Dirty D, I even liked you're Friday flier. It had motivation and fire in it. What I like to see in a sponsor.
Seriously. Great flier. Fired me up to cont working 7 days a week as I always do.

Hey it is his prog. I am sure he pays. Some guys feel strong about PPC and their paysite names. He is one of them.

But (been said a thousand times) should of been in the tos.

If he doesn't know the difference between a typein and someone searching for his site in Google then he is an even bigger idiot than everyone previously thought.

I'll be at Internext in Miami like always. Also be at Phoenix Forum. And Dirty D won't do shit at either, hes in enough trouble with the law.

And I am sure as hell not going to physically attack him like an idiot and get arrested. I will tell him to his face what a scumbag he is though, as well as let as many other people as I can know.

Jesus el savior Christ...12 pages?! This is a bit nuts over $350. The iBill thread is now shorter than this and the old iBill fucked people out of how much money?

How do you mean Robbie? this is the second time you have you have said something about seeing Shoehorn in person, I think you need to need to get a grip man, and stop with the bullshit, you are no gangster, I met you and I really dislike threats towards people who I believe are in the right. put the fucking pipe down.

He does know the difference Johnny. That was my point. He referred to sales as TYPE INS because in NATS they either show as a type in or an affiliate sale.

And wow. You would really walk up to a man and call him a scumbag? Holy shit bro. What would you do if someone did that to you and you already were pissed at them? Damn. I don't know about you...but I'd slap the taste out of their mouth before the "bag" part got out. lol

You guys need to talk in private. This reflects badly both ways in my eyes. Not that it matters. But just sayin'

Its actually $477 now because of the new pay period.

http://www.johnnyshoehorn.com/hotlin...onpayment2.jpg

WTF are you talking about? LOL! I'm no gangsta? And you met me? So what? I just explained what I'm interested in seeing. Are you trying to imply something?

Actually I run NATS and the way I have it setup, typeins don't show up as "type-ins". Try to know what you're talking about before opening up your mouth.

Yeah, I will call him a scumbag, thats what he is.

Tried to talk, I emailed him for nearly two weeks before brining this to the boards. I don't like drama, I would much rather have gotten paid in the first place.

He knew what he was doing from the minute he removed my payment from NATS and didn't contact me to tell me he wasn't going to pay me. Instead he continued to accept my traffic and joins with no intention of paying me for those sales. Thats a scumbag in my book.

Before "opening up your mouth" Dude, there is no reason to get all disrespectful. I'm merely telling you what he was probably thinking when he wrote the word "type in"

Hell, I guess you are going to take it all the way. Good luck with it. Again I hoped that you guys could somehow work it out. But publicly saying he's a scumbag isn't gonna allow that to happen. Get those shirts ordered and anti-Dirty D websites up and fly that sig. I still think this is no good for either of you.

regardless of what you think robbie, a lot of ppc guys that make a hell of a lot more than you or i do will tell you that ppc is marketing.

i know guys that make 5 figures a day ppc marketing and that is no easy feat..

robbie, if you knew ppc marketing then you would know thats its not as easy as just buying kw's.

if that was the case then everyone would be rich which fom personal experience i can tell you is not true.

anyone who makes a living doing ppc will tell you that they are always searching for that golden kw.

they are not easy to find and when they are found, they are exploited to the fullest.

mainstream companies that have an issue with people bidding on their kw's clearly put it in their terms as excluded kw's.

robbie, as someone who always posts in these type of threads, i have not once seen you take sides with the affiliate..

you always take sides with the program owners which is fine if the program owners are in the right, but in the case the program owner clearly didnt state in their terms that this was an issue.

since you want to involve yourself in this thread, i would have to ask you, are these your terms:

Solo Slut Cash is managed by Intdig LLC. All of the following terms and conditions must be adhered to and are legally binding immediately upon agreement. We reserve the right to terminate any agreement upon our discretion.

A case by case basis and special circumstances will only be considered with references.


if so, then would you pay me for sending traffic to claudia using the kw "claudia-maire"?

because if you didnt, you would be going against your terms just like in this scenario...

lastly, what difference does it make if someone goes to a show after this? do you know how many times people have pissed all over each other on the boards and then met at a show a month or so later. i have seen or heard about only 2 or 3 physical confrontations at shows and as far as i recall they were never the result of board pissing.

at this stage in my life i would rather spend my resources getting someone sandboxed and letting them waste the next 2-3 months of their life trying to explain to google why they should not be boxed then going to a show and getting arrested for smacking someone that i had a board piss with.. :2 cents:

I am not from US, so forgive my ignorance but why don't you issue proceedings for the recovery of the debt in the small claims courts shoehorn?

It may be adult business but it is still a business debt, and the issue here is TOS.

There is enough evidence to support your claim and it should therefore be an easy ruling on a point of law and a lot cleaner than engaging in tactics that could be construed as trying to damage the sponsor's business.

Once Judgment is attained you then have options to collect the money.

:2 cents:

Yeah I met you, and lose the attitude,was with a few friend's of mine, one of them a "black guy" we were at the bar at the hotel in la during the convention, he went up to your room and you know the rest. idiot kept me waiting, he was my driver, but he had fun, so I let it go.

WOW you are clueless

Stop typing, pay him and STFU already

I agree 100% And I'm not attacking Shoehorn for it. I was responding to guys who were ignorantly going on and on about "marketing" In THIS case it wasn't any skill. Shoehorn bought the DOMAIN NAME for the keyword. It was low-hanging fruit I suppose. But it didn't represent any marketing was my point. Somehow I got accused of everything under the sun just because I pointed out the truth. Dirty D has a very valid argument here. But I don't think he went about it the right way. Shoehorn has a valid argument as well, but I don't think he should have ever bought the adword for the domain name.

If it had been me, I would have been pissed if someone did that. And I would have written them IMMEDIATELY. That's where Dirty D is in the wrong. And then I would have paid him and shitcanned him. At this point after Shoehorn has done and said all of this and the gfy mob has joined in...I don't know if Dirty D has any incentive to pay him that money.

I just don't know. What would you do NOW in this situation? It looks like lose/lose to me.

I would have to file in Florida.

I am going to be making some calls to Florida tomorrow though to see about another avenue of getting my money. And before you get all tough guy on everyone Robbie, no, this isn't a threat of violence. Florida has collection agencies.

Clearly the guy is an idiot - I don't know why anyone listens to him.

LOL - That should be a new conference draw --- 'GFY Celebrity Showdowns.' :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh Personally, I would like to take a shot at Carmine or Scooter (based solely on avatars), even though I don't know them nor have I ever taken a shot at them over the boards (and, they both seem to be solid dudes). But, we all seem to be in the same weight class and spend about equal amounts of time at the gym! LOL :1orglaugh LOL

I don't have an attitude my friend. I don't know who you are. Don't remember you from Adam. Don't know you and don't care. You're the one jumping in at me.

If you read my posts carefully I was asking Johnny if he was going to be at internext because I was curious what would happen when he and Dirty D came face to face. I have stated over and over that I LIKE Johnny. I have no desire to threaten him. Why would I?

I was kinda hoping that if he thought about he and Dirty D meeting at a show, he might cool down a second and maybe the two of them could work it out without the gfy mob stirring up the fight. You have misunderstood what I was trying to say.

Thats what he should have done, and thats what he should still do, BECAUSE IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

This is a business, not a 3rd grade classroom. A business owner should conduct himself as a professional and do the right thing.

I still fully believe that he could pay me and could regain the trust of affiliates, but the longer he waits to worse it looks for him.

Damn, I ain't trying to get all "Tough guy" Sorry if it's coming off that way.

I have met him at shows, on more than one occasion. Hell, he had breakfast with me and some friends one morning in Costa Rica.

But this isn't about liking someone or not liking someone, its about doing what is right.

Its been said before, your board persona sucks. You know I don't dislike you, but you're trying to play devils advocate here when the situation at hand is clearly black and white.

I meant the thought of coming face to face with each other AFTER all this stuff has went down. I was kinda thinking that if both of you realized that and then looked real carefully at all the things that have been said in anger...perhaps the both of you would re-think things and something could be worked out. This thread is nothing but stirring up bad feelings that are going to be difficult to ever let go.

d does have a valid argument here, but unfortunately he didnt have it in his terms. the proper thing to do here was pay shoehorn and then shitcan him..

i also agree that shoehorn crossed the line when he took this from a professional dispute to a personal one..

if i was d, i would have paid him right away and this whole mess would be over..

at this point, both sides are in a losing scenario and since you asked i will give you an honest answer.

personally, i would sue.. its the dumbest thing to do giving money to the lawyers, but once someone started threatening my business whether i was right or wrong in the first place, i have to defend what is mine.

however, i am stubborn to the point of being stupid so i wouldnt recommend what i just typed..

maybe what one solution would be is to have shoehorn paid, the thread deleted and everyone moves on and its dropped..

sometimes when you lose you actually win and sometimes when you win you actually lose and sometimes you neither lose or win but you put it behind you and walk away..

Robbie, with all due respect, why not allow affils to bid on ppc kws with the exact name as your paysite? (Rhetorical, I know you have answered that a hundred times)

First of all only one guy gets the Google listing so the other affils promote you maybe on other engines where you have no presence.

Second, some guys doing ppc also have websites too. Fresh eyeballs left on the table by both you and Dirty D.

But your call of course. :) Good discussion as always. :thumbsup

If he pays me the money that I am owed then it will be the end of this. People have been saying it since the first page, pay me what I am owed and this whole thing will be over.

I don't care what people say about my board persona...and it's not "black and white" to me. I'm speaking my mind. That's all. I don't agree with you buying his domain name as an adword. I don't agree with him not contacting you as soon as he found out. I don't agree with him not paying you. And I don't agree with you starting this thread and encouraging people to attack his business.

That's just the way I see it. And I'm glad you don't "dislike" me. What a ringing endorsement. :1orglaugh

I LIKE you just fine. Thought you were a funny guy. I guess I should change that to I don't "dislike" you so my internet feelings aren't hurt. heh-heh

That is the only thing I've wanted since I first started emailing him 2 weeks ago.

Great post.

I would have ZERO problem with people using Claudia-Marie as PART of an adword campaign. Why not? Now if they were just using "Claudia-Marie" then I would have a problem with that. I work hard to keep that spot. And believe me I've had some work cut out for me with some guys who have gotten that top spot and are so damn good at SEO that I couldn't figure out HOW the hell they did it! So not being a SE guru type...I just go to work on writing text and making sure that I am the most relevant thing to come up. It's all I know how to do.

But yeah, if somebody wanted to PPC "Claudia-Marie Big Tits" or something similar...I wouldn't see any problem in that at all. And if they had the writing skills to make it look better than what I do, then they are welcome to the sales. I have no problem competing creatively when it comes to writing. I enjoy that.

Not only did he not contact me, but he continued to take my traffic and sales. Thats why this is fucked up on so many levels.

I also never encouraged anyone to attack his business. I gave the facts and people agreed with me, and disagreed with how he chose to handle it from the start. I've had people emailing and ICQing me since page 1 saying he is wrong and needs to pay me, and a few of them are close friends with Dirty D, which is why they didn't post.

Why do you think there has been more than one program asking me to email them to start a PPC campaign for them? They know the value of it.

We're talking about 11 pages of people all saying the same thing. This is that clear to nearly every single person that has posted in this thread since the start.

This isn't personal, this is business. My business is owed money from his business. People need to be made aware of this so they don't find themselves in a similar situation.

Of course, he could do the right thing and pay me, at which point I would make an announcement and ask that the thread be closed. But until I get paid, this is something that needs to be addressed.

Lot of mis-information about PPC in this thread.

You don't "buy a domain name" you bid on the keyword of the domain name and EVERYBODY who bids on that keyword will appear in the paid google listings in the order of the size of their bid.

Not all clicks result in sales, so shoehorn is spending his own money to send traffic o the sponsor.

Although that is not the point of issue here the TOS are.

This thread and the curious cash one are ridiculous really.

GFY as the industry's leading board should set up an arbitration panel of industry experts, sponsors, affiliates, lawyers etc who would listen to the "evidence" in cases like these and make a ruling based on majority opinion. Clean quick and impartial and with nobody's business being damaged more than it needs to be.

:2 cents:

Have you offered him to try and get the thread removed if he pays? That might be an incentive he'll go for.

I'm not your friend nor do I want to be after reading your shit, I only remember you because of the incident I mentioned, don't get confused, not all people rely on porn so I really don't give a fuck who, you think you are, you are nothing to me.

So are you denying Robbie, that my friend "the black guy" you met for five minutes at the hotel bar in LA, btw I talked to you and okyed it for my driver to go to your room with you and you're girl.

You make me laugh, stop it, not all of us are idiots.

Look man, I don't know or care about you one way or another. If I met you fine. If I didn't fine. Who gives a fuck? And if you're looking forward to seeing me then please come up to me anytime and tell me who you are. Or don't. I could give a shit.

Yes I have, for two weeks. I also gave him the option to work it out with me before I went to the boards, to which he replied "If you choose to whine on GFY, make sure you are accurate. To be fair, please make sure the title of your post say: "Do any programs payout for google PPC containing the exact spelling of their own domains?".

I am still willing to work this out with him, all I want is to be paid the money that I am owed. After I get my money, I will ask Eric to close this thread.

I also want to add that I am a very easy person to get along with, and I am not in this for the drama. In fact I hate drama. Run a search, you'll see that I haven't been involved in any big drama here before. I treat people fairly and with respect, and I think that I should be given the same courtesy. Nothing I have posted in this thread was untrue.

What it comes down to is that I deserve to be paid the money that I am owed. Its as simple as that.

Listen for the last fucking time, you said you were looking forward to seeing Shoehorn meet D, Dont be a pussy, I know what you meant by that. you and I both know nothing will happen, because after D comes down, he will pay Shoehorn and that will be it.

You on the other hand are full of shit, you know exactly where and when we met. come up to you? now you really are being a funny guy.

I was asking myself. If he treats his affiliates like this and doesn't stand up as a man to acknowledge his mistakes. How big is the change that this guy Dirty D is shaving his affiliates? I am sure he can invent a million fucked up reasons that let him think it's fair.

You are seriously insane man. I don't remember you. Sorry. I was drunk and having fun. Sounds like you are trying to provoke me though. Good luck. lol

Why wouldn't you come up to me if you and I met and had laughs at a bar in LA? WTF is wrong with you? I just told you, I don't know you, I have fun and party at lots of places with lots of people. Trying to remember some guy from the show back in the summer just isn't registering for me. Sorry.

If we ever meet again, just remind me. Jesus man. And if not....who cares? You've already said you basically hate my guts or whatever. So who cares?

Page 13 on the way

ADG, I loved the tourettes guy. A couple of years ago they posted he had passed away. I haven't been back to check to see if it was just a pr stunt of if he really died. But that guy made me laugh until I cried.

"FUCK SALT!" Pure comedic gold. Him in the supermarket shopping was fucking hilarious.
