I consider John a friend. A old timer who has been around, and seen it all.

But I fear he is now a scammer, ripping people off. I have seen so many threads about not being paid. The best part is in Insite's TOS he has a clause that if a webmaster posts on a board negative things ( complaining about not being paid for example) that they are kicked out of program and will not be paid. It is pretty funny.... and sad at the same time.

Yet newbies still signup and send traffic.....

Can you point out this clause Mike? I can't seem to find it.

I think that's kinda reaching... It doesn't specifically say anything about bad press on boards.

Every affiliate program carries a "right to terminate any account at anytime without notice" clause.

Insite has gone through some tough times, but they are still in operation, and I certainly wouldn't jump to any conclusions about them. Certainly not to someone I consider an old friend.

Insite is local to Man and Bat Inc. Less than 15 minutes as a matter of fact.

I have a friend who programs there, and I know they just switched to a smaller office. They've got a lot of products and I think a few of them are keeping them up while some of the others are dragging them down, would be nice to seem them pull out of it.

Chris, where there is smoke there is fire - PERIOD!

I would not send any hits to Insite - especially now, they probbaly just cut my account!!

One day Chris you may think objectively with your head and stop benig a kiss ass lackey.... Insite has gone down the tubes, they have been ripping of webamsters, and chances are they are down for the count.

Not sure who pissed in your wheaties this morning Mike but how is Chris's suggestion not to jump to conclusions 'ass kissing'?

JohnIP is one of the few that have been around since start, and that if nothing else says alot cause there are damn few left, and you know it... Plus he is a hell of a guy aside from his shitty short game IMO... if you think that's asskissing well good for you... won't change my opinion of the man...

I'm not in the Insite offices and neither are you, so how the fuck you have any clue what the details are of what's going on there is beyond me. Expected more than GFY bandwagon behavior from you though...

A lot of people have been around since the old days. I tend to like these people more, and give them the benefit of the doubt. I like John, we have been friends, we agree on political issues, and he is very funny.

BUT look at the amount of complaints his program has had. Even I have had some bouned checks from him in the past - I am sure it was a banking error or whatever....

When companies struggle people tend to do things that they would not have done in the past....

I am not going to give anyone a free pass just because I have known them for 7 years, or just because they were a founding father. Those are all good things - but we have to deal in the here and now.

you'll be surprised, but there are people out there who do NOT post that they are not at liberty, but have solid info nevertheless.
