Lindsay, do you think if you speak out really strongly against something people will never suspect you of doing it? 
WTF do you expect when programs still offer $30-$40 per join when a join on average is worth $5 - $11 on a $40 per month membership?!
So tell me Lindsay, how (even after qualifying webmasters by making them send 5 sales per day for 3 months) do you pay your members up to $45 per join?
Or do you just mislead people by saying 'up to $45 per join' but making the conditions of getting that payout almost impossible?
95% shave is fucking rediculous, but the reason programs do it is because they aren't making money off signups these days but webmasters won't accept lower payouts. Catch 22 ...
If you are looking for the highest paying, too good to be true payout instead of working on matching your specific traffic to a specific site then don't be surprised when the payout at the end isn't all that impressive.
Know the person you are doing business with ..... WELL.

I am going to be brief, simply because you probably don't hear what I have to say anyway.....
And I just KNOW you are waiting for my silence to justify some, well, whatever it is, that you have stuck in your head. And I think you have advised others before that people in glass houses.......
On the shaving issue, I answered Vick above, and happily put my hand up and say that I actually hadn't thought of the shaving issue the way it was put via-a-vis third-party processors. That was naive on my part. And wrong. And I accepted that as above.
If you had actually checked out our sites, they DON'T trial, our minimum join is around US$30, so our average yield is HEAPS higher than sites that trial.
We have conditions due to fraud, and because we have no trial, even on revshare in the past we have been targets (as have we all at one time or another). We have CB and Refund provisions and we have levels of performance required to qualify - that is just so I don't have to be checking EVERY transaction ALL the time.
And you are right, the bottom line is matching your specific traffic to a specific site, and to KNOW the person you deal with WELL.
As far as the radio show goes, why should I talk to anyone who won't talk to me? Especially when at the end of the day it is 25c phone call?
And what I said above in my last post is all I can think?
Unless you don't actually know me as well as you think you may.
And vice-versa for that matter.
