Affiliate Petition - 60 day player tracking at FT

Will players still get a bonus after 60 days even if affiliates don't get rewarded?

This may encourage some affiliates to lie to their visitors, to ensure they convert to real money before 60 days.

add something about the clause that you lose all your players if you don't bring a new one in 60 days, and even more important about the in-house rakeback thing that seems to be going on.

But then, imho a simply poll won't do. What we will need to change their minds is a list or a simple thread with a joint declaration saying that all the affiliates "signing" by a simple "yes" will stop advertising FT unless they revise their policy before a set deadline.

Maybe this should even be coordinated with other affiliate forums.

After all, when you add all the things they are doing, it's difficult not to see it as a strategy to get away from affiliate marketing, and towards direct marketing. I can tell you one thing, they must be spending tons of money for TV ads here in Germany right now ....
So maybe they think they do not need the affiliates anymore.

People often say this, but almost all companies use a combination of direct marketing and affiliate marketing to promote their programs. It's rare that it becomes an either/or situation.

Nell, please take a look at the results of this poll.

[Catfish]

The fact that she hasnt posted in any of those threads re: FT/60 days rule speaks volumes ... or has she ?
On the other hand, they might be in the process of re-evaluating the whole thing

Really hasn't been professional on their part.

With SOOO many concerned affiliates an official statement from Full Tilt from upper mangement would have been nice.

Just want to confirm, I accidentally clicked yes but I changed the poll to show my vote as no. My name stays on the yes list however.
