Couple that with the fact that Pierre has only been running 'adult' sites for about 3 months and im sure you can see why offering any type of PPS program, no matter what the payout or cost of membership is right now, is a bad idea, for him at this moment in time.

Not everyone on the GWW Community has the same skill sets as you do yet, you treat everyone like they do, we have a vast mix of community members ranging from newer webmasters who, really shouldnt be launching their own paysites yet to webmasters who have been doing this for years who still dont have their own sites.

I appreciate that in terms of GWW you are relatively 'new' to us and wont know who does and who doesnt have what specific skills but, as with your post a day or two back, by telling everyone that they can make a lot of money using the PPS business model, you are going to force a lot of people out of business rather than helping them grow their business.

Just because PPS works for you, that doesnt mean it works for everyone and, id hazard a guess that when you launch your 'program' whenever its due, you will begin to see how much the industry has changed in the last 2 years while you have been gone, it hasnt sat around waiting for you, the dynamics of the industry have changed, it isnt just about how much you pay affiliates these days.

You really do seem to be under the impression that during the last 2 years while you were off playing poker that the industry stood still, trust me, it hasnt, it has evolved, its dynamics have changed... Drastically and, i really do feel you will be in for a rude awakening when you launch your program and finally realize this.

As i mentioned in another thread, programs come and go everyday, PPS programs launch on an almost daily basis, they are nothing new, we've seen them all before and, we'll continue to see them.

PPS isnt the be-all and end-all of running a successful program that you seem to be under the impression it is, it might have been 2 years ago but, i guarantee you, it isnt today.

Sorry if this post comes off as being confrontational, it really isnt meant to, im just starting to get a little frustrated (as i know some others are) at your constant 'my way or the highway' definitive way of doing things. Especially when your way isnt the correct way for an awful lot of people on GWW.

As im sure Gary would have told you a couple of years ago, just because something works for you, that is no guarantee it will work for me and vice-versa.
