Didnt get an email, probably because im not an affiliate but i do think that 3 days notice of this for those it does affect is a little crazy to say the least, then, after having deactivated their links, telling them they can still promote your other site just seems like another slap in the face.

If an affiliate isnt good enough to promote one of your sites, they shouldnt be good enough to promote the others you have in your collection.

Seems to me like you are going to lose a lot of trust with this move, especially given the short amount of time affiliates have to 'remove' their links.
