I wish I knew why this sereis of discussions on CAP have occured while I am on vacation. I appreciate the input but the timining is a bit bizzare. Dom were you instructed to start this series of CAP redesign discussions and if so by who as I wasnt consulted?

By the time all issues are discussed and resolved, it will be a long way down the road... and some will forget. That seems to be the plan to me (no offense, Dom... you know I luv ya!)

As I have been told once before: 'Affiliates will be angry at first, but they will get over it.'

I won't tell you who told me that... but you can have a good guess at it.

Well now that Lou has decided to shelve his retirement plans, perhaps he can enlighten us with his view on the whole Card Spike debacle.

It's not company policy, I do not and will not represent the company.

It's what the community wants.

I find it difficult to get my head around the concept of a company management that has apparently surrendered it's duty to protect the company's immediate interests to a forum discussion by its members without making any sort of announcement on the project or its goals.

The post by the company's founder and president that Webzcas has just highlighted only adds to my bemusement.

Dom, how is that knife in your back feeling?

Finally got a taste of the "real" Lou... Goes down nasty don't it...

I wish I knew why this series of discussions on CAP have occured while I am on "vacation." I appreciate the input, but the timining is a bit bizzare. Dom were you instructed to start this series of CAP redesign discussions and if so by who as I wasnt consulted in the least b it. CAP is my baby and I never expected a kidnapping to occur while I was resting a little and attending to my mother who has cancer. (I know I haven't stated that before now but its an issue that is waying heavily on our family now and I wished to keep it private) I love CAP and once I get everything back in working order in my life I would like to come back to the same CAP I always knew and loved and watched grow to size it is now. Let's keep things in complete prospective.

1. We just came off our largest show ever in London with over 1600 attenndees.
2. Cancun will be a huge event as CAP Springbreak's Go and probably our largest ever.
3. Amsterdam will brak all records for an affiliate event of any kind.
4. CAP TV was laucnhed and is growing rapidly in quality, content and viewership.
5. MyCAP was another one of my initiatives which is a great social network that allows our members a secure enviroment to further develop relationships.
6. We are scheduling more CAP regionals in 2009 including Sydney so that more affiliates have access to conferences and events.
7 CAP Magazine is expanding each issue and will hopefully go monthly in 2009.
8. Our membership[ has broken 8100 and is racing towards the magic ten thousand.

Have there been a few bumps in the road? Are theri controverisal posts on other boards? Yes, we arent perfect but we do our best each and everday to bring you the best. That includes me. I have worked from basically 7:00am - 11m every day for all these years and I dont think my leadership has been a detriment to CAP in the least bit.

In private I am being told I MUST remain silent and let things "settle down" this isnt what I see happening. I see you trying to restructure CAP via threads and polls without my advice or consent. If this is a Coup please let me know so I can recognize it and address what I have to do to stop my community from being wrestled away while my guard was down.

I was in London and I realized just how much CAP means to the industry and to me and I will be damned If I will be run off from what I loved, own and created along with all our members and team. I had hoped for some more time off until my mother gets through surgery, but If I cant have that brief rest withought losing CAP then i guess my hiatus will have to end immediately.

Guys I love CAP and I love what we are going to do in 2009. We had several long meetings with GPWA in London and they agreed to work positively with us moving forward. Based on all that I am rescinding any plans to step away. I wil be in and out as medical visits come up, but I am here to stay.

Well, I guess that is between Lou and Warren.

But it's not found anywhere at CAP (unless it's hidden).

I'm wondering if any operators or affiliate managers could explain exactly what "The CAP Certification Process" was. You can PM me if you'd like - or post it here.

Sorry, jumping back a few pages here. I'm a bit puzzled by this too: http://www.affiliatemedia.com/casino...-programs.html

We became certified the day our forum sponsorship payment hit CAP's bank account. As an Affiliate Manager on CAP since 2004 I've always seen their "certification" as an ill-named advertising fee, but 1/ stating publicly there is an actual certification process in place and 2/ calling it "rigorous" or "distinguished" is quite misleading to say the least.

These kind of 'lies' (for lack of a better word) by Casino Affiliate Programs/Affiliate Media are designed to recruit new affiliates, that don't know any better.

Any Affiliate that has been around for any time at all, knows that the CasinoAffiliatePrograms.com 'Certification' was solely based on money being paid.

Dang, Dominique, that was nasty how Lou treated you.

I think it shows that, for Lou, it's business as usual and he's gonna wait and let things blow over, catering to n00bs who don't know better. Google is destiny.
