Default Re: Bullshit reaches limit - AFF and Iporn scuttlebutt

Well, it goes a long way to explaining why they were apparently so far into bed with Zango and their ilk, converting a $100 affiliate payout into a $25 PPC popup scumware sale turns that from a loser into a profitable transaction.

There are some other interesting numbers in there too, like cams losing reveue per minute, and the fact that outside of "adult" social networking, Various has very few real members (only 78k).

Also, they declare somewhat under 1 million paid members, but the front page of their website says "over 20 million members". At what point does this cross over the line to misleading advertising?
