Many things would have to change. Its going to be awhile I think. I actually thought partypoker would go private and come back into the US but that hasnt happened.

I DISAGREE: Someday, we will be working with mgmaffiliates, or venetian affiliates, or thewynn affiliates.....when the industry is legalized and regulated. 5 months or 5 years from now, it will happen (fingers crossed). “As much as I would love to see these companies affiliate programs operate with the integrity of CJ.com, Linkshare.com, and the big retail affiliate programs, it will never happen.”

Six months would even be fine IMO but its not really affiliates jobs to convert the player once over to the site. Its the sites job at that point. FTP really misses on a lot of points. They lack many tournaments that other sites already have. The step tournaments at PP were great to bring in lower level new players. I wouldnt mind seeing FTP add more options. I am still waiting for a site to add a HU MTT tournament format. 60 days is not long enough.

I could accept 1 year as the cut off point. I hope with all the outrage that they will change their policy. I could accept 1 year as the cut off point.

If you have a choice between running a tournament for your members at FTP or PokerStars.com, I think the choice is now obvious. The only way for us to really have an impact is to stop complaining about it, and hitting them where it counts (in the number of players we send them).

They left a sour taste in my mouth a long time ago. There is plenty of programs to promote that bend over backwards to help us. I won't waste my time on a site that doesn't care..

So if we send a player, and they don’t convert in that 60 day time frame, their real money conversion had to with some other form of marketing that FullTilt was doing and not our affiliate campaign. I might agree with this if it were 365 days or even 180……but 60 days, Hell No….. It is FT’s job to convert my PMP’s with newsletters, emails, bonuses, and great events like FTOPS. Some players may take longer than 60 days." Some players signed up with my links months ago deposited now when I placed some banners with new FTOPS event series on my site (And also some topics about it). So I helped converting old sign ups. “In my opinion what the FullTilt executive team is thinking is this; They spend exponentially more money on print, television, and offline ads than on affiliate marketing.

I think the biggest issue for me about the ftp situation is that if ftp can get away with it other poker rooms may try to also. So then it becomes an industry standard.
