Dear Affiliates/Affiliate Programs, For years, Lou Fabiano and Warren Jolly, both principle owners of www.CasinoAffiliatePrograms.com, have used their authority to squeeze out a number of affiliate programs from this industry - some of which were well-deserved, others not so much. Sometimes their decisions were based on purely merit (or lack thereof), but most of the time, the term "Rogue" was loosely awarded to any affiliate program that was unwilling to pay their hefty advertising fees, or should I say, "Certification" fees. As of late, CAP has stooped to an even lower level. By owning, operating, managing, or at the very least, having a financial interest in a so-called "Certified" Casino (www.AbsoluteSlots.com) and "Certified" Poker Room (www.CardSpike.com) threatens the integrity of the affiliate marketing model altogether, Many of you question whether this is true or not??? I have verifiable evidence that Lou Fabiano and Warren Jolly, the principle owners of CAP, have a major stake in both sites, in addition to an interest in Affiliate Speedpay. The proof will soon be published in due time. This is a slap in the face to every affiliate or affiliate program that has supported CAP over the years. CAP is nothing but a glorified harvesting tool to capture priceless affiliate data, which is then used to fuel the operations of other so-called "Certified Programs" that compete directly with the programs and people that support the CAP community. If you think about it, Warren and Lou's "Gestapo" model is quite brilliant - too bad you guys got caught!!! So, if you're an Affiliate, and you feel cheated, the solution is simple - stop supporting CAP. Don't visit their site. Don't post in their forums. Don't accept their Magazine. Don't attend their trade shows. If you're an Affiliate Program, and you feel that your putting money into your competitor's pockets, the solution is simple - stop supporting them altogether. The only way to re-establish integrity in this space is to re-introduce a new player - will it be the GPWA, or will someone else step-in to pick up the pieces.
