That being said, LS knows about ABW and they do monitor ABW.
Hopefully somebody at LS reading this will act on this.

As Billy and also Mike Coley said, they have come a long way. They do listen but it takes "quite" a while to implement it..

I totally agree with what u said. LS is great, and CJ maybe needs to change that rule.

Does LS even have a payment threshhold? If so, it's low which means affilaites can recieve payment for just abiut every sale without reaching a dumb threshhold like CJ, GAN and othe rnetworks.

I think LinkShare's payment threshold is $1, unless you've specified a higher one.

Linkshare really need to start respecting their publishers, we Beta Tested the Coupon API which in the beginning was giving everyone links even for advertisers they weren't approved for.

Now in the last week we've been contacted by compliance & asked to remove a particular link for a large merchant we're not affiliated with (or face termination from Linkshare) - it was something trivial like "Free Shipping on $200 orders". We did this within 24 hours but apparently they failed to see our email & terminated us anyway.

Having serious problems trying to explain the situation to anyone at LS & I've never seen someone get terminated for something so trivial in all my 10 years in Affiliate Marketing.

So, Linkshare if you're reading this thread. Start treating your publishers with a little more respect, they will make or break your network.
