lots0,
I don't think it is fair to make a post like this without even trying to contact us and determine what might have happened first.
After my experience with other self proclaimed affiliate advocates (like CAP), I thought it would be a waste of my time.
Sorry, but if you think my post is "Not Fair"... You should try looking at this from my point of view.

I can't PM you at GPWA (looks like my PM rights have been pulled there... lol)
So, I guess I'll tell you in public... Please pull my application for your private area.

We did not delete any post that you made on the GPWA forum. Rather, you made a post in the "GPWA Announcements" forum, which is only used by GPWA administration for making official announcements. The forum does not prohibit posts from being made by others, but any posts made are automatically moderated, and we generally do not accept posts made by others, although we will generally move them to another forum such as the chatter box if the post in the GPWA Announcements forum is not a duplicate post.
OK, no problem. My mistake. But I am sure that after hearing my side of the events you can see how I came to the conclusion I did... I mean my post disappeared, the program involved came out the next few days (after the fact) with an explanation ad new policy...
Based just on circumstantial evidence, in my opinion, you were already convicted.
I also don't see where you said you did not contact the program involved.
You did send a pm to me saying you wanted to withdraw your application for private membership at the GPWA, but you did not provide any clue as to why you made the request. I sent back a pm asking why, but never received any response back. It is only by finding this post on the Casino Meister forum that I am able to piece things together. And here I find the reason appears to be a false conclusion that we deleted posts of yours.
Sorry for not replying to your PM. I never logged back onto your board, until after I read this.

Just to repeat...

Also, we do not "certify" programs and make no claim of doing so.
My misunderstanding. I thought that by advertising some affiliate programs and not advertising other programs you were "certifying" those programs you did advertise.
I was also stating a personal feeling... That I am going to personally have a hard time trusting
any self proclaimed "Affiliate Advocate" when there is profit for the "advocate" involved.
Please understand I am not making a personal attack on you or yours. I am stating how I feel.
I don't know you, never met you, but people I know have told me your a good honorable guy. If that is the case, then I am sure you will understand why I wrote what I did after you have heard both sides.
However, as an affiliate, trusting any affiliate advocate group that profits directly from the casinos or their affiliate programs would be a rather foolish business move for individual affiliates, in my opinion.
Now hopefully we can talk Bryan or one those great CM Mod's into finally closing this thread.
