The infamous Amateur Straight Guys / ASG / Digital Ventures, LLC / Doug & Jay Productions / Blondie Girl Productions / or whatever you want to call them are back recruiting affiliates for their sites amateurstraightguys.com and eyeonthestraightguy.com under the name Boner Bucks (http://www.bonerbucks.net).
This company has not paid at least some (possibly many) of their affiliates for commissions earned under their Straight Guy Cash program which they were forced to close in October 2006.
This is the last communication received from ASG:

Seth,
I apologize for the lack of response that you have received re: our affiliate program. The truth of the matter is that we have been forced to close the program due to cash constraints put on us by the IRS. We haven't known really how or what to do but have made the decision as of last week to close the program. We are working with our attorney to help us compile all final statistics and payout information and a letter will be issued to all affiliates this week. Our intention is to pay every affiliate every penny we owe them and we won't rest until that's accomplished. We certainly haven't handled the situation well and I acknowledge that but avoiding the situation is no longer an option and is certainly not fair to our affiliates. I apologize again for the lack of communication and I appreciate all the traffic you've sent our way. The Amateur Straight Guys brand remains strong and growing and the elimination of our affiliate program will certainly improve our margins !
and our ability to pay all outstanding monies. My best to you.
Doug
