This is why I wish affiliate programs would do a little research before they put on their "Marketing To Webmasters" hat:

you know how to piss of a fat man? take his scooter away

To : Greenguy
honestly, I was with you until you mentioned the galleries
you want to know
how you piss off a Link List owner? You tell them that you have galleries for
their script

if you're busy then tell me you aren't interested, thats all you needed to do

So yes, you're the asshole - don't link the sites, sorry for trying to offer
you something new that has potential to make you a bunch of cash
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:47 PM
From : Captain Obvious
when you said you don't do galleries I gave you the links that nobody else has
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:47 PM
From : Captain Obvious
you list something, you're sending us traffic already - I figured you posted a
few of the hosted galleries
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:46 PM
To : Greenguy
I'm the asshole?
do some research before you do this kind of stuff - I run a
Link List that lists Free Sites - I am not a TGP that lists galleries, so when
you tell me that you have all kinds of galleries, you come off as an uninformed
ass

I'm trying to help you get tools to promote something hot before everybody else

its unnecessary

like an annoying telemarketer

don't be an asshole

To : Greenguy
yeah - seems really fucking stupid to go from webmaster to webmaster when you
can just send out a newsletter & be done with it
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:43 PM
From : Captain Obvious
does that surprise you?
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:42 PM
From : Captain Obvious
none, I'm an account rep, its what I do
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:42 PM
To : Greenguy
how many webmasters have yelled at you for bugging them on ICQ when you could
have just sent out a newsletter like every other program does?

I assumed you'd want the cf links, if I was wrong just take the "cf" off
123joincf and you'll get the full $12.30 payout per join

quality

From : Captain Obvious
its just not fully released yet, we've done lots of testing we're just
finishing building the tools webmasters need
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:39 PM
From : Captain Obvious
yes, no new accounts, all on the same check as your current payouts
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:38 PM
To : Greenguy
is it part of the existing program?
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:38 PM
From : Captain Obvious
would that interest you at all?
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:38 PM
From : Captain Obvious
there are 9 different sites (9 niches)
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:38 PM
From : Captain Obvious
oh I see - well I can also give you the links and we'll have banners really
soon
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:37 PM
To : Greenguy
because I do very little with galleries
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:37 PM
From : Captain Obvious
may I ask why you aren't interested? these sites are selling like crazy
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:37 PM
To : Greenguy
no thanks
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:37 PM
From : Captain Obvious
Can I get you a list of galleries so you can import them into your script?
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:36 PM
From : Captain Obvious
I have about 350 hosted galleries with long descriptions for the 123 program
right now in cumshot, hardcore and amateur niches
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:36 PM
From : Captain Obvious
the way it works is your surfers pay $1.23/month and you get $12.30 per join
(or $10 per join with cf)
Date : 3/29/2006 Time : 10:36 PM
From : Captain Obvious
I wanted to tell you about a new program we have called the 123 Program

Hello, I'm your account rep at Metal Cash, how are you doing today?

Aside from pissing me off by pitching the galleries that I have little or no use for & aside from the fact that this info could have been emailed to me in a newsletter like every other program does, here's the problems with this:

Please note that I didn't reply to the 1st message, but after the 2nd one came across 30 hours later, I only replied because I assumed there was some major problem with my account.

Ummm...ahhhh...errrrr...well, I did say "no thanks" 25 messages earlier!
I guess the moral of the story is be careful what info you put in when you sign up to promote a program
