Fuck you.
It was a long, sarcastic joke. Calm the fuck down.
The anger spewing from this thread is mind-numbing.
Fuck you.
Ain't that tourettes macro a bitch?
I have mixed feelings on this. I was someone that always believed, People that do, do.. and those that can't do, teach. This is similar to what your saying above.
However, I am a successful affiliate and I make profit everyday on my campaigns. That doesnt stop me from thinking about building a tool or service and selling it other affiliates though, for various reasons such as diversifying my income. Hell I even thought about starting a blog just to get referrals and sell my tools/services to help spread out risk with my affiliate income. Doesn't mean I am having hard times with affiliate campaigns though.
You should see how much money is made from people like Amish ( GAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAY ), WF review plugin, and other tools/products being sold out there today.
One way to think about it - what if Wickedfire LLC came out with a competing tool to LP Lockdown that promised up to the day IP information for thousands of active affiliates? Would you be pissed off about that? How is that different from a mod who is able to see all member's IP addresses and has a product that claims the same info?

The fact of the matter is that Nickycakes has a product he is selling, which he scraped from this site as a Moderator...
I also think this is a wise choice. Nicky had simpler version of this script (along with ip database, right?) published for free long before this shit storm and he could collect affiliate ip's just like anybody else on this forum. Now that external images in signatures are not allowed and script is not free, there is a conflict of interest.@Nicky, the right thing to do is to give up your mod title. It is an enormous conflict of interest with your new business. You are claiming to protect clients from WF members while having privileged access to WF member data.
You're mistaken. Absolutely none of the IPs in our blacklists came from scraping IPs out of Nick's moderator control panel. Any IPs that were gathered from WF came from sig pixels, which every user can, and has been doing for quite a while.
Nick being a mod here offered us no advantage at all, it was never leveraged to create our blacklists.
I really don't understand why everybody is so up in arms about the pixels in the sig. Nick posted about it a long time ago, a ton of people have been doing it since, and there has been no uprising. Has everybody not noticed all the pixel scripts that have been showing up on user's signatures since the external images were disabled?
Now that you can't use sig pixels how will you accumulate IPs from this community? Or will you stop collecting them here?YAny IPs that were gathered from WF came from sig pixels, which every user can, and has been doing for quite a while.
