Affiliate Union

[JHV]

Is it a valid question for me to ask why GamTrak isn't permanently banned from CM?

I just clicked 2 links and I was staring at her flashing Cirrus and Cool Cat banners on her site.

BB28, Is this the post by Gamtrak you were refering to?

Not a problem, I just had to give my view of what happened.

Personally, I feel that the player is responsible for knowing T&C's of the sites where they spend thier money as the casino and affiliates are. As an igaming affiliate since 2001 I've never had a legitimate claim against your brands so I'm all for seeing that you guys do what you can to repair the damage of the past because players do continue to deposit and play each month.

I've taken a lot of flack for promoting your brands, but I don't waste time worrying about such things as long as my players don't have a problem with your brands and I get paid on time, then I don't have a problem with you.

I get the sentiment, but Gamtrak is NOT the only webmaster member here that promotes known rogues. And does CM even have a policy on what webmaster members can or cannot promote?

Yes Jod5413, that's the one. You did a better job pointing it out than I did.

I have a big problem with it as I'm sure a lot of other people here do. IMO she can't just shrug off the responsiblity by saying that her players don't have a problem. I'd bet that a lot of her players don't have a clue what to do or how to contact her if they did.

In reponse to Swampwitch (which I forgot to quote) duh

I don't know of any criteria that CM has now, but I made a suggestion in the sig thread that maybe CM might look into starting a section for accreditated webmasters that they would have to meet certain criteria and of course one of those would be NOT be promoting scum such as that.

To be fair, Gamtrak has stated that when her media buy thingy with GW is up she won't be promoting them anymore.
Just putting that out there....

Yes, Gamtrak did say that she was "willing to remove any and all properties that need to be removed" as soon as the contracts are up...To myself though, that can mean something totally dif. because of the wording...Thats happened a lot and ppl. who know how to use words and twist them a bit do so....

Hell - I don't even know if I had rouges on my site any more - I didn't have the energy after the chemo to go through all of them...

SO IF ANYONE sees a rouge on my site - let me know.

Hi all,

I'm not going the lay the boots into GamTrak.
She has been around long enough to know that both gamblingwages and Virtual Casino Group are at best doggy. At worst, clip joints that operate rogue casinos & sportsbooks. And webmasters should not touch them with a barge pole!

However I've made an observation that I feel most of you have overlooked. Or at least no one has posted about it.

As this thread was commenced on the AU topic, it's fitting to remind everyone that GamTrak was recommended as an Affiliate Union founding member to me by APCW Anthony.

However even after Gamtrak responded to Webzcas and admitted she was promoting a Virtual Casino Group casino, and all of the founding member of the AU coped it sideways...APCW Anthony didn't have the balls to post that he'd recommended GamTrak as a founding member of the AU.

That's why I ended up posting the entire story.

Surprisingly enough within 10 - 20 min of the AU details being made public by me, I receive a PM from APCW Anthony requesting a MSN chat and I also received an email too. Since then I've got several from APCW Anthothy.

Obviously tipped off by someone that he needed to get his butt over to the AU thread pronto.

If the truth be know, I'd bet he'd been there since GamTrak answered the VCG question.

I find it extremely funny and ironic that everyone is questioning GamTrak's ethics and integrity. But no one here (I've quit the GPWA so no idea what's been posted there) has bothered to raise any questions about the ethical part in which APCW Anthony played.

To me, the APCW Anthony issue should be just as important as the GamTrak issue.

But like always those in the clique can do no wrong


Cheers

Dave

I really don't like the way this thing has all gone down.Robin was at least willing to put her time and effort into trying to make this work.Now it is just a bashing session against her.If we have to rogue every casino site and portal who has gambling wages on their site there wont be many of us left.

I also have a difficult time buying in the conspiracy theory ,why would people try to get this effort off the group only to bring it down a week later.Patience is a virtue ,that is what I have learned in my 43 years and I think the announcement was premature to say the least.

And Peter/Greek why would you leave GPWA over this? I don't see this logic at all.And why would you post things liek you are now going on the dark side?I certainly hope you posted that out of frustration and will return.
