    It's not a game it's a valid comment. I and others that I know have done drops for them only to find out that they scrub the hell out of your clicks. Just simple facts from my experience with them.

    PM Me your email on the account. I would love to look into it. So far my guys have all been paid 1 to 1 on their clicks, even the international clicks, on our variable rate CPCs.

    The set rates are different, those are paid via a pixel on the LP to take out bots, dupe clicks and people that don't go through to the landing page. This is fairly standard and the same way I have run set rate CPCs for many years at other companies.

    Coming from working for mailers for the past 13+ years I know that internal click counts will always be higher than the networks and advertisers show. We mail internally and are paid the same way as our publishers. =)

    Can't remember the offer. I am sure you could look it up under my account. It was a small drop under $50 but I never received that money either. If you want more details hit me up on Skype and I can give you my info so that you can find the account.

    Definitely not trying to sound like a b*** but you sent under $50 in traffic. If it was our variable rates, that wouldn't even be enough to optimize the incoming feeds. Not sure how you can make assumptions on that little amount of traffic, especially when Paul is not exaggerating on how much per day we do in volume on them. =)

    As for the payment, most networks have a $50 minimum threshold. I found your account and will personally make sure that the $25.50 we owe is sent out. =)

    To be fair the drop I did was very small. Things change so rapidly in this industry that they may have better solutions in place now. I don't want to discourage people from trying it out. Just wanted to share my 2 cents with everyone at the time it happened. The others that I know that have tried it also did so quite a while ago. Things do change and improve over time so maybe the experience is better now.

    I don't do as much with them anymore but Paul's a good guy and their network has some ok offers.

    However, I would just deal with him only as he is the best one to deal with there. Not too crazy about the staff.

    Also, negotiate the best price. Don't take the first/quoted payout you see. ;-)
