IMHO if someone has quality traffic, and has made the business decision to promote a program, I think they should realize that the 12 hours isn't going to make a difference. If they are that good at traffic generation and sales, they understand that business is business. You have to realize as well that without auto-approval it allows companies to cut back on charge backs. How? Those auto-approved affiliates that send 20 fraudulent sign ups that then charge back and increase the companies charge back ratio, putting their company at risk. What good is a company that is out of business to an affiliate?
