But they will if you shave the fuck out of them and say you'll pay $200 joins every second tuesday after lent.

Nick,
IMHO you have just nailed the biggest point.
Greedy little fucks who don't their asshole from breakfast.
To me shaving is simple, if you send me 10000 hits and 20 joins but your stats INTENTIONALLY only say you send me 8000k hits and 16 joins, THAT is shaving.
Fuck I've seen an off-the-shelf affiliate solution that has 9 seperate shaving mechanisms. I know of a purpose written one that has more.
We personally don't shave, and I'll put down $10k and even pay for the audit if they show WE do, but we use 3rd party processors, and who the fuck knows what some of them do, so the point is probably moot.
Shit we even give affiliates ALL the email addresses they gather under their revcode - members AND mail grabbers.
All we can do is try.
But we do shave our boys.
