No longer accepting blogs promoting AFF

BadWolf · 02-26-2008, 01:27 AM

As of today (Feb 26) I am no longer accepting blogs submitted to my directories that promote Adult Friend Finder......or any program directly associated with Zango.

Sadly, this includes Thumblogger blogs and Sensual Writer blogs. If there is a change by Twan to change the AFF banner on these free hosted blogging services I will be glad to accept blogs hosted on these two sites again.

However, I am putting my money where my mouth is right now.

I apologize for this but I feel I have no choice at this point.

Good for you, for making a stand

mm107 · 02-26-2008, 08:39 AM

i never liked AFF, didnt like there style of advertising, good think i never started =]

Good for you! Bad for us who have blogs on thumblogger...

As I recall there was some sort of 'feature' on Thumblogger that lets you change the topbar sponsor, right?

Question BadWolf, are you taking into consideration whether the person has a non-AFF topbar while still on thumblogger? Or do you take the more general route, and just ban the domain because the majority of blogs will probably have the default topbar, and its easier to just ban by domain?

Just curious

how do you change the topbar?

I've read somewhere along the way about being able to remove the AFF ad, although I asked about it, and AFF's banner is a main t-blogger money maker, so in essence I took it that if you removed the banner your slapping the freehost in the face, and I wouldn't recommend it.

i've also heard that you can change it, (not remove it). i just dont know how

I saw Twan answer it on his forum, something like you click the link and can change it to the sponsor of HIS choice and it can't be changed back after that.

Judging by the posts in this thread most people don't know how to change the AFF banner. However, if anyone has a Thumblogger blog w/out the AFF top bar just send me a PM before you submit your blog.

Btw, all blogs submitted before 2/26 will be exempt from this new policy.

rogue · 02-26-2008, 07:07 PM

well, ive had a damm good look in the blog admin and their support and i cannot see how to change it anywhere

BadWolf · 02-26-2008, 07:20 PM

My advice would be to put pressure on Twan to stop promoting AFF. Then this would not be an issue.

There's a zillion blog directories that accept Thumblogger and Sensual Writer.

fresh · 02-26-2008, 08:25 PM

Its best not tu use them because they support theft not because some directories does not accept them

Fresh, i wouldnt say thumblogger promotes theft, i mean AFF does some shady shit, but i would hate to be called a cheater because my sponsor does some shady stuff lol. I mean money is money at the end of the day....

think about everyone promoting slickcash, they got caught hacking another website, im not a cheater, but my sponsor might have been....

BTW, innocent untill proven guilty, i still promote slickcash =]....money is money at the end of the day!
