The problem is, affiliates expect these loyalty bonuses, raised payouts, points, prizes, whatever they ask for, then once something happens with conversions, even if it their own problem, the program is automatically at fault and they stop sending traffic/sales... But STILL expect to be getting the loyalty bonuses.

As i said, it doesnt work like that in the real-world, it shouldnt have to work like that online.

At the end of the day, if you are no longer loyal to a program that is paying you above and beyond what everyone else is getting paid, expect that bonus to be taken away, and re-instated when you start sending traffic/sales again.

And again as i said earlier it all boils down to one really simple thing.. The member wouldnt be with your program if the webmaster hadnt sent him in the first place..

So if you want to take his loyalty bonus from him on new join thats your right but the once sent while you loved him, he should get paid for..

what you are trying to do is bacially reintroduce the feudal cast system just with the programs being the dukes and the affiliates being the pesants.. The webmasters wouldnt be able to move on out of fear of loosing their accounts and the rebills they worked hard to generate..

it was wrong back then and its wrong now..
