I already emailed all of our existing affiliates about this a few weeks (or maybe a month) ago. Feel free to ask around about that. A few of them even bitched me out for the email not being CAN spam compliant when I was trying to offer helpful advice. Some people are just assholes. 2.) We will likely be open in the next 2 to 3 weeks. 3.) I increased the cookie length to 180 days and credit the 1st affiliate with the sale. So even if we are closed now you can still get credit if you refer people who make sales. 4.) The email wasn't sent out as a lie (just as our autoresponder series still promotes joining the site, which is currently closed). When I closed it I didn't ask myself all the different ways it affected the site as I was close to burn out and just needed to cut back. But as you can see from #1 AND #3 above I did try to do my best to treat affiliates as fair as I could. Some people do not appreciate that when an individual has 1,000 customers and runs a number of websites that sometimes they miss stuff. And I don't want to start tuning the site down away from as is because that is just going to be that much more I need to change before I open up again. 1.)
