You know what. Let's allow Shawn to make things right. That's the fair thing to do. If Shawn could admit that what he did was wrong and apologize to the kid on this forum & on his blog (even though he might never see it - it's about principle). Then people should go to ASE.
If not, heck I live in Miami and was planning on going. But if Shawn can't be man enough to admit he was wrong and went to far, then I don't want anything to do with ASE.
Now that's fair.

Threats.
He was cancelled in the first place, because he was converting nearly 100% of his traffic in very large volumes on an offer that converted around 15% for the biggest performers.
After not responded to my e-mails asking what he was doing, the account was shut.
He responded minutes later on the e-mail about his account being closed, and then HE wouldn't let the issue die.
I really wish my association with Wickedfire didn't mean I'd have to be associated with idiots like Blastyourass.
OK, I know this guy who well he put a post on his blog in good will for free speech and he is now getting some heat for it. So.....................
Since you are here. If this guy I know is an affilliate and has this silly little godaddy quick blog that is totally not promoting anything on your network, 100% unrelated or doesn't mention copeac. On his affiliate sites are in full compliance to your regs then is that ethical as far as having an associate represent you?
He's worried sick.
Should I tell my friend to immediately delete the post or kill himself NOW?:2gunsfiring_v1:
Thanks sir.
Would anyone be interested in renting a banquet hall in Miami during the same week as ASE? Everyone knows you don't go to ASE for the speakers. It's all about networking. Even if we all pitched in some money to rent out a hall, it would still be a hell of a lot cheaper than a pass to ASE.
Shoot me a PM if you're interested, voodooman.
That's not a bad idea. Heck, I already live in Miami. I have friends in the hotel business. Getting a conference hall around that time shouldn't be too difficult. It might be alot of fun. I don't know, it all depends on how many people are actually interested in it.
I did link directly to your post, too.
Just because you have free speech doesn't mean you're immune from criticism.
Your suggestion that affiliates should generate junk leads by using porn as an incentive. I have a problem with knowingly generating bad leads.
If you're in Miami, I'll be glad to grab a drink.
LOL jesus guys. That's the solution right there - ignore the conference that helps legitimize the industry. </sarcasm>
Look, Shawn can rile some feathers, sure, but the fact of the matter is that people like BYA aren't interested in being treated like professionals because he's not a professional. I've met several BH'ers that are actually pretty upstanding guys - they just choose to exploit opportunities that exist because nobody has fixed them yet.
I don't fault BH'ers for trying to get away with stuff. But let's not pretend like Shawn did anything a store owner wouldn't have done had he found an employee stealing merchandise. Whether it was appropriate for the school to take action is something else (personally, I don't know why one has anything to do with the other, but that's already a done deal).
Look, there are people that are in this business because it's our way of life, and then there are others that float in for a few months, cause some havoc, and then disappear in to the lucrative cheeseburger assembly industry.

Huh? English please
My post was to solidify our position since our name came up in the blog post that Shawn talked about. I did not go to the blog, but cheating advertisers is not a good thing to do and is not tolerated by us. Just like affiliates dont want to be cheated.
