Goldenstar's TERMS are ONCE AGAIN Predatory!!

[Guard Dog]

The GoldenStar Network has, unfortunately, not only re-enacted their predatory term that we worked so hard to remove, but has made it even worse than it was initially

If you are promoting GSN, you might want to re-think.

Wow.

GSN and Vegas Partner -- what the **** are you thinking? These terms are highly predatory, and no affiliate in their right mind will bother with your program with such crap in place.

Affiliates -- I strongly suggest that you don't work with GSN and Vegas Partner anymore. If you do, then you're supporting their unfair, predatory practices. The revised terms are predatory, for sure, but the fact that they are also retroactive is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Frankly I'm surprised that Vegas Partner is doing something like this again. Didn't they learn anything in 2005 when they and a few others tried to implement retroactive T&Cs?

This is completely unethical -- you can't just steal our players if we don't send as many "new" players as you'd like.

It should not matter how many players I send -- if they are still making deposits, you WILL pay me a percentage of their losses until they stop making deposits. End of story. Anything less is a breach of contract.

If this matter isn't resolved by the end of the week, I will be blacklisting all GSN and Vegas Partner properties.

I agree 100%!

If they want us to market their products, they will NOT steal our commissions if we are unable (for whatever reason) to send them a new player for a while.

Our commissions are ONLY ON PLAYERS WE SENT. That should entitle us to commissions as it would with nearly every other affiliate program.
