In fairness to Simmo Nash...
he did clarify in a later post (highlighted above) that he thought it was wrong.
However, I absolutely agree with your statement/question!! Can you imagine the uproar if the affy companies did that? Ummm...let's see. You sent us too many players this month, who deposited too much money...therefore forcing us to send you such a large amount of money in commissions, that we simply have to RETROACTIVELY charge you processing costs on all past payments made to you.
Ha ha....good one.
I'm imagining the uproar now, and the blacklisting that would go on.
