by the way I don´t like the smileys that are used in this forum

[Gamer]

We love smiles! This way the forum is not so boring one! Don't you think so?

"We love smiles! This way the forum is not so boring one!"

That's right.

I like smileys but not the ones that are used here they look like very old ones. Maybe they can come up with some new? Then I would like them

[antihacker]

If a member does not have a site associated to their account, it will not show up on the recognition list (since we can't link to a site we don't have). That is why antihacker and others who frequently post are not always on the list.

I wasn't going to say anything until I read your explanation...

I came to this forum to get help. Not to get on this list. However, since forum management knows just how much I did put in, and that I've lost all of my business (Practically ALL of my income) after being exposed here in this forum with all my personal details, it would have looked quite ok if you would have AT LEAST mentioned my efforts here and expressed your gratitude if you have any of that, or know what it means...

Since that has not been done, it is clear just how much gratitude is coming. And just how much management cares about all of us here. I'm being ignored by management. And, management does not give a hoot about us affiliates. They want us to sign up, sign up, sign up and preferably opt for a paid membership. PAiD.. get me?

No need for lists, you can see this with your own eyes. And since you type this list yourself and KNOW what sacrifice I've made, all you needed to do is type it out. Thank you.

Let me be clear: Because of the hacker thread / posts I've done, I've lost all my income, all my sites and it seems my whole damn life. Because I was exposed. Where? Here...

Your list is based on most post activity. Not on sites linked. How does it work with the recognition for most active aff program representatives? I see no damn links there either? Probably a complete different high tech software program special solution that 'makes' that list, right? Right??

Check out the number one on that list. And see just what she is posting about. A few industry related posts, few more advertorial posts, the rest just gibberish about iphones, fitness, tv programs and what have you not. How does that ADD any value other than show just how nice and social this girl Renee can be? Are we here to socialize? Or to improve our business? Maybe I'm wrong..

Think this 'link' is such a great reward? Put links in your signatures folks, its the same. No need to do anything for that.

Mister 'Executive director' Michael Corfman HIMSELF knows (based on the amount of PM's he ignored) and on the amount of posts and work I've put in.

He COULD have made it his business to show HIS gratitude towards what I've done. All he would have had to do is make a note of it. Probably looks bad towards the 'platinum sponsors' I assume. I wonder how he will react if his **** is being hacked and attacked and when he loses all of his income. Let's see how high he will fly then..

Seriously: No f*ck was given by him. Well, at least not about the important issue I've tried to clean our industry from and ended up being assassinated over.

Besides that, nothing was done either. I wasted my time here, and because of it, lost everything I've worked for all those years.

Does anyone working for / with this forum actually know what that means?

Besides the fact that NO help WHATSOEVER was offered, on top of that not even a 'thank you'.

Well, thank you. It is clear to me that you don't give a hoot about me, and about all of your affiliate members. Let's just talk about television programs and fitness programs, as they seem to be the posts where those aff program managers get their post counts on.

Forget it. It's clear to me. I don't belong here. Even better, I'm not wanted here. Thinking of it: I don't WANT to be here no more.

What is more clear: Sponsor affiliate programs are important. Cause they pay. AND bring in lots of commissions for the forum owners once affiliates sign up with the programs. Don't you all see it??

Without affiliates here, these programs will stop paying and get the hell out of here. Like I will.

What a total shame, and a waste of my time. I wish I NEVER EVER did what I did.

Amen.

We're giving an extra special thanks to Gamer, one of the most active poster during the month of September and continuing on the list this month. His site is being shown on the home page for the month of October as the featured site. Congratulations!

Not a single word mentioned.

You not doing ANYTHING to help in the hacker case is insulting all of your affiliate members here. Paid and non paid. It shows you do not care.

That does suck in my humble opinion. I've lost all over it. You did not lose one drop of sweat over it, nor did you even care to help.

I hope you'll lose all of your affiliate members here over the amount you've shown you care about them. Which is clearly zit. None. Nada. Nothing.

You care about getting paid. Nothing else.

Period.

[antihacker]

Not that I'm anyone, but I'd like to thank antihacker for his posts, his time, and his effort in the hacked websites saga.

Thank you. It means a lot you stick your neck out and show your appreciation in this glorious thread. It also colors it in even more just how much GPWA does NOT care. Not just about me, but about all of us.

We (affiliates) are their piggybanks. Affiliates are here to make them cash.

Thanks Shay, I appreciate your words and your support immensely .

[antihacker]

antihacker deserves a bit credit as he tried to help the rest of us affiliates and ended up putting his own name on the line

Thanks Grem. Also to you. It means a lot to see how you care.

[antihacker]

Maybe an honorable mention at least.

Thanks Mojo. But, as we can see out of the thanks your post gets, Shay's post gets and Grem's post did, I don't see any of management adding their thanks to it. Clearly they don't see it as a useful addition.

Thank you for your support.

[antihacker]

There you have it, confirmation that a "GPWA algorithm" exists!

A manual one..

[antihacker]

To all:

Sorry to be such a 'party pooper' in this huge celebration thread - showing us just how much we do our best for this forum to rank higher and to attract more new webmasters and affiliates to sign up with the sponsor programs, making Corfman and co more and more cash - But, I feel pretty let down by it all.

Not even a thank you. That takes literally 2 seconds to type.

[antihacker]

If you allow your sponsors to support cyber crime it will be the GPA soon as all search results are F-ed up atm with hacked sites.

That is why I would like to suggest to get the hell out of here. If no affiliates are here, no one will want to pay.

[antihacker]

Hello,

Perhaps, thank you is not enough!

You never know... It would have been for me..

"Let me be clear: Because of the hacker thread / posts I've done, I've lost all my income, all my sites and it seems my whole damn life. Because I was exposed. Where? Here..."

If I am honest, today is the 1st day in the hacker case, I am really very disappointed about GPWA.
I was so busy with pet rescue over weeks, still took time for investigations and for a solution of victims, opened the thread in AGD regarding AffEurope, because otherwise nothing would be done with AffEurope, and now I see, that after weeks nothing has done.

Some programs "investitate" (investigate what??????????????????), representative can write, what they want. If they are sponsors, their words should be read with closed eyes. Great!!! Then in the future every word of terms should be also void and invalid, because if the written words of representatives are only valid, it the situation is good for it, then the journey is finished and the target reached: We all are living in a madhouse here.

I know sponsors, who know, what they are writing and these sponsors are working honest and stay to what they are writing. For these people there is more than only paying the sponsor fee, a free-ticket to do what they want, to say "darkness" and GPWA will later say, no they say "sunshine". You are too stupid to read it, member! Written words are no longer valid here. Every lawyer would shake his head. Again: Delete all terms too. There is no difference!

What a wonderful day.

Omg... antihacker, do not be sad. Of course, you post more.
I cannot be so active like you.
My fingers are busy counting the money I didn't received from the so-called "affiliate" programs.
My poor fingers!

[Onno - RP Affiliates]

Congrats to All the people in the list and i read the Antihacker posts/treads with great interest.

Congrats again

I think some clarification is needed, and also an apology.

When we started recognizing monthly top posters back in August 2006 (for participation in July 2006) it was done as a way to say thank you to affiliate members by providing links to their websites from the home page of the GPWA website the following month. Initially building the lists was done by hand after running various reports. Over time, the process was turned into something that was mostly automated, with a report that considered various factors such as the number of posts and total length of posts to try to identify top contributors.

This automated process has always only considered contributors that provided us with a website of theirs that we could feature on the home page of the GPWA website since the whole process was organized around featuring sites there. But with a process that became largely automated, and with CityGuard leaving for law school over a year ago, the regular contact with top contributors to find out their websites when they were not already known, largely fell by the wayside.

So there are a number of top contributors who are not recognized on the home page of the GPWA website or in this monthly announcement post. I have to apologize that the process has become increasingly flawed over time as we have not consistently requested websites for new top contributors. Your contributions are important and deserve recognition even when we don't have a site of yours to feature.

Here are additional top contributors for the month of September, and the position they would have occupied in the original list if we had had a website associated with them:

1. antihacker
3. -Shay-
8. Sherlock
10. RacingJim
12. gameman
24. christinaborsk

Clearly we can do a better job of asking for the affiliate sites for top posters so those sites can be featured, and so we intend to do that. We would very much like to feature the sites of all top posters on the home page of the GPWA website.

To more properly recognize the folks above, I am editing my initial post in this thread to include each of them, and to recognize antihacker for his contribution this past month.

Thank you for the list, but it's too late for antihacker to enjoy it to the fullest. For him it was a disservice to be a GPWA member:

the hacker thread / posts I've done, I've lost all my income, all my sites and it seems my whole damn life. Because I was exposed. Where? Here..."

Here at GPWA.

GPWA should be aware of their responsibilities. Sometimes money should not play any role, more the people behind.

For me today is a very sad day if I read, that a member mourning the lost of all his income, his sites, his interest in life.
For me today is not a day to do business as usual.
No, for sure not.

For me today is a day to show the audience the truth about this industry, that I have wrote into my diary: https://www.gpwa.org/forum/leopolds-...tml#post768917

the hacker thread / posts I've done, I've lost all my income, all my sites and it seems my whole damn life. Because I was exposed. Where? Here..."

We all can have differences, but enough is enough, and if this is not a wake-up call, then I don't know, what it can be.

Antihacker? ... He's on your special bonus list now, but what is worth a place when limits of endurance are reached?
For what kind of red line we are waiting for?
That a member will commit suicide?
Read my last entry in my diary about the truth of this industry from today. Over 44.000 views can't be wrong.

Antihacker?... An abandoned member is still an abandoned member, with or without a laurel on his lowered head.
