Anyone Elses Rude Stats Haywire Tonight?

My stats are really bad I have had over 400 hits and nothing which is terrible I usually convert very well.

Was at 15-20 conversions constantly now only 1 conversion for the day? Either there is a error with the system or Rude is racking in free registrations by skimming our leads.
 
The reason I am most pissed about this whole thing with Rude is not due to the fact that they are having an error with their tracking system but the fact that the error had to occur on the best day so far that I was having in 11 days. You can't beat 35 free joins in less than 3 hours. I gave up after I hit 70 free joins and only 35 had converted to paying leads. Now my free joins are 1:29 but 1:1 on the conversions so I have no clue what is "really" going on with Rude. I am just saving my automated bot + accounts for tomorrow morning when I am going to hit the commenting hard instead of commenting tonight for lousy free joins / leads and have my accounts banned by tomorrow morning so I have to put another 1-2 hours into creating accounts.
 
I know a site that pays $2 + bonus / free signup. If u want, pm me
 
same here 20 sign ups and just 6 conversions. seems they are going to take free leads.
 
my balance is in pending... and they don't paid me :) anybody else have this problem?
 
I'm experiencing this too..check out my stats:

After waking up and seeing this I sent off an email to Danny ASAP demanding to know what has happened to the rude software. In the last day alone I've been skimped over 100 conversions. before this I never had more than a 1.x join:conversion ratio. Furthermore, I usually ONLY experience a 1:12 join:hit ratio... 30 is unprecedented for me... I will be royally pissed if these do not convert sometime.
 
It's not a bug/error and they have decided to change the system which now requires free joins to verify email. This is terrible because i just started with rude and was converting well and now i have to change my affiliate company.

Free joins have always required a valid email verification to convert at Rude.

The Email:

Dear affiliate,

As you may have noticed Rude is converting like crazy.
We?re a loving community and we want our affiliates to make as much money as possible.

This is why Rude is the only program out there that doesn?t require a free join to opt in for you to make money.
You as an affiliate make $1.- for every free join that submits the 2nd page of the join form. That?s it.

Unfortunately due to recent developments we are no longer able to keep this up.
The setup status quo has become too vulnerable for cheaters and we have no other choice than to implement the opt in rule.

Effective immediately, credit will be given for joins that opt in only.
Meaning a free join will have to confirm their email in order to convert.

What does this mean for you?
-You might see a slight decrease in hits/join conversions since unfortunately not every join opts in.
-No worries about your earnings made so far. Nothing changes and it will remain in your account, waiting for you to cash out.

Rude regrets that it had to come to this, but we trust that you understand there?s no other way for us to protect ourselves and our affiliates.
We?re positive that regardless of this measure we will keep converting like crazy.
So keep those links up and see for yourself.

I thank you in advance for understanding and bearing with us.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions at all.

well....maybe i will be looking for other options for sure! there are many many other offers that pay alittle more that are about the same amount of work for the lead. i think azoogle still has the true campagne that is only 4 fields and no email comfirm...plus it pays $3.50 a lead....i used it a while back.
 
They have to make money to Pay you, so I understand completely why they went Optin.
 
So what is this competitor that pays $1.50-2.00 an email that people have mentioned? Because it looks like I need to redirect my traffic.

adultdatelink.com what that guy is spamming all over!
Stay away from them, they shave like mad -converts like crap with 2page+email confirm and with they ugly landing page and I talked to my AM there and he told that if I wont get at least 1in 20 converting to paid signups they will convert to rev-share!
 
Well fuck I guess that game is over at least for this affiliate... all these users trying to come up with fraud leads have fucked us in the end. Currently I can still hit $50-60 with Rude so I am still promoting till I found a new affiliate. Once I find a new affiliate I will make a post and trusted members can contact me. I am not going to let fraud leads do this to use once again.

lol i like their LP better than rude
they aren't shaving me
ASK your Rude AM, he will say that if your leads dont convert with an 1:25 average they'll put you into revshare program too.

-Affiliates using tactics such as signup to receive your free password to unlock pictures, videos, movies, or anything not related to a product distributed by Rude.com must use the Pay Per Sale or Revshare Program. We can disable you from the Pay Per Lead program at anytime if the traffic is not productive.

the worst part on this is that new members who join under your link still have access to rude without mail confirmation..
