Sorry it has been years since I have posted here, I just haven't had the time, although I have popped in frequently over the years to catch up here and there with some member or industry news which we may not have covered over at the GPWA.

It is my sincere hope that I will be able to overcome the assumed conflict with Moonlight Cat at the GPWA.

There was a brief period of mis-communications and a slight misunderstanding on my part, and in my opinion Moonlight Cat over re-acted without first contacting me to see what had happened to a post he had made.

I take full responsibility for not getting a message to him sooner which may have avoided what he assumed was a conflict.

Moonlight Cat has been a respected member of the GPWA for about 11 years now, and I would like the community here to know there certainly was not a conflict, just a small issue with a post we could have certainly worked out without such. I have been in touch privately with Moonlight, in hopes he will give us a chance to help get over this minor confusion.

Ok, got additional information from Universal4 (Rick).
They detected original NetEnt game as pirate.

Here is the game: https://mymzik.com/play/971xb.php

The game located on casinomodule.com - this is official NetEnt server.
Anybody may visit https://games.netent.com/video-slots/the-wolfs-bane/
When game load, just click the right button - check iframe code.
You see iframe url from casinomodule.com

And ok. They don't want that i help my sub-affiliates to insert this games to they sites. Ok, no problem. But they remove all links to my signature to my aff.sites. This may be impact from seo reason.

And ok. They want to play cops? They want to send request to NetEnt.
Who they are to check me? Who they are to do this? They are the same as me, gambling middlemans. Who give them to rigth to think that they are better than i?

I don't not interested in the business of my colleagues. But if GPWA think that they are holy in gambling world - this is not true.
GPWA broken the law at least of dozen jurisdiction offer the illegal gambling affiliate progrmas from this jurisdictions point of view.

I don't remember than somebody sent request to European gambling authorities or law enforcments or ministry of censorship of some countries about GPWA. Because we respect other buisness.

But they are holy monk. Check Moonligth Cat. Unviversal4 (Rick) - wake up! You work in grey area in your country and try to be holy.

New message from Universal4 (Rick)

After I offered to work it out privately you continue to bash the GPWA and me and yet are not using full disclosure.

A minute after I go to guard dog and fall on the sword for YOU

and you are NOT disclosing to anyone you posted full codes for games that use YOUYR affiliate tags not a subaffiliate YOUR tags

Rick

UNIVERSAL4 (RICK) - IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS WORK DO NOT CONCLUSION!

Anybody, help me with English. When i am angry i am forget words! HE think that i am cheating affiliates!????

All affiliates have they own subdomain. They own affiliate links. Not my links.
I am not the idiot to provide free games to my sub-affiliate with my link code.

I am not the GPWA who sell they members shitty sponsors and ready to sell anything to anyone for money!!!

And you Unviversal4 (Rick) tell to

After I offered to work it out privately you continue to bash the GPWA and me and yet are not using full disclosure.

NO!!! We must speak public!! If i am wrong, i am wrong. But i don't want to speak with you, M.Corfman and other GPWA private.

 

[Moonlight Cat]

Finally from GPWA.

only after about 3 or 4 emails did Moonlight Cat disclose that each individual would need to join the affiliate program using his tag as his sub-affiliate.

Moonlight Cat would then create sub domains on his domain to carry the php pages which framed out the games


had we discussed this in advance, we could have saved the perceived conflict which I never had I was just trying to determine what exactly you were offering

NONE of the above was originally disclosed and was only told after you started a conflict that did not previously exist

Why i need explain something for default?
Ok GPWA don't want that i am attract sub-affiliates.
I don't understand what damage for GPWA this acton do, because sponsors pay fixed price. But ok, this is they own T&C.
If they don't want i don't do this.

But why they thinked that i am provide fake games by default? That i am cheating affiliates by default?
___________________________________________

If GPWA want to do some investigation, they have are lot of they own Platium, Gold, Silver e.t.c. sponsors - many of them have more reason for investigation than me and my sub-affiliates.

I think whatever the outcome of this - and this looks more like a confusion than anything else - the damage is done. Don't think neither Rick or Moonlight will ever see eye to eye, again.

 

[Moonlight Cat]

I don't think so. Links to my affiliate sites on signature removed. My posts on pre-moderate mode now. The removed two my threads on GPWA.
This must be happen sooner or later. I feel that i am annoyed them for are long time. The same as they annoyed me.

Whatever is happening between you all, you are always welcome here!

I think censorship of a 11 year member is a bit extreme. It does not motivate me to go over there.

The GPWA has oodles of information, which dates back to 2001. As such, it provides a decent source of data which can be used to benefit affiliates. Additionally, it gives affiliates a means to contact not only programs but also peers too, and ask questions etc. In that context, the GPWA is a valuable resource.

While I agree, and it seems, there's been a comms (miscommunication) between Moonlight Cat and Universal4 (forum Admin), this thread, highlights, an ongoing issue which seems rampant at the GPWA. That is, double standards to how some members are treated, and others are not.

The resident "private member" spammer is testament to that. Aside from a slap on the wrist, nothing else happened, even though 'Blind Freddy' can see his motivation is to "spam" the GPWA forum, and continues to devise ways to, or entice others (friends) to help him achieve that "spam" goal. Yet and reiterating, he's received carte blanche.

I recall Daftdog making a post, which, I believe was blinded-edited by a staff member, so as to not make said GPWA staff member look foolish. Over and above this, valid posts are deleted. Yet members who aren't on the hit-list (discriminated against), can post something identical and nothing happens. Reiterating, seems double standards are riff.

We're all human, and regardless of how perfect we may think we are, at some point, mistakes happen. That's just human nature. The thing is though, while not everyone is going to get along, or like everyone, there needs to be consistency in decision making. Otherwise, it becomes a breeding ground for contention, and worse, ends up manifesting into an 'us against them' scenario.

If Moonlight Cat was reported for false accusations, and subsequently his posts are now being moderated, then that's a travesty, and it needs correcting immediately. If the GPWA is so concerned about 'pirated software etc., ' then how about showing the same gusto towards paid-sponsors who steal members commissions???!!! Reiterating, double standards are riff.

Taking anything positive from this situation, I would hope it sends a clear message that rules need to be applied equally, and more so, fairly. If it's not OK to do XYZ, then that applies to everyone, including forum staff too.

Speaking of rules (and while CM forum isn't without fault), Bryan at least has a set of rules which clearly outline acceptable behaviour. Maybe it's time the GPWA adopted a similar policy, where by Rules are set in stone, and everyone, including staff are obligated to follow these rules. Least then, everyone knows where they stand, and is treated identically.

I also believe if one is a Mod/Admin of a forum, then they wear that 'neutral' HAT only. Swapping "hats" when it suits agenda, then swapping back when it doesn't, does little to bolster member confidence to receiving fair and unbiased treatment.

Hi Moonlight Cat,

I saw this thread for the first time moments ago. You know, I am no longer visible with new posts since an eternity at GPWA. The reason ist very simple. It mutated into a China Communist forum with a censorship I have never seen before on the internet in the so called "free world".

They censored everything from me before it could be published. Of course cowardly, as usual, without notice to the public. I did not read there for almost 5 or more months. A few days ago I only checked, if they had already archived my lucid diary as they threatened me with it.

You know, Anthony is no longer admin. Due to an internal coup and as a gift for all the dirty work, which was done over the past years with censoring everything, Michael ordered, after all that brownnosing, Rick now has that position, and this was the beginning of the end of GPWA, because if a proven religious radical is the admin of anything, if this admin is blackmailing, threatening and harrassing people over PM and lying to the people on the forum many times, then there is really no substance for a serious business anymore.

I know for a fact, that if a sponsor contacts Michael with a request to remove things, it will be done, but Michael is to cowardly to do it himself. He always uses the new admin as a puppet, so his hands remain clean and he has not do discuss the matter, where he would lose, because the wrongdoing of GPWA is omnipresent. You cannot censor everything on demand and believe, the people are idiots and will continue to invest their webspace and work time into a bunch of shady sponsors and also criminals.

Did you know, that the Capo of the Lock (Down) Poker Crime Family is still private member at GPWA and personally protected by Michael, despite his proven knowledge about, what this criminal has done to thousands of people?

I do not know, if I am allowed to write his name here. What about this official links to GPWA about a story?

At least here in Germany the reputation of GPWA is below Zero in the meantime. No one has trust into this so called "forum" which is nothing but a paid propapanda and censor tool für fraudulent und shady sponsors without any real substance.

The so called "private membership" aside the public data from normal members will be abused to collect and to sell private data. This is the reason, why no one can come on the monthly list with a link to a website, if she/he has no online casino banner on their websites, because only "real" casino website owner can be sold to third parties.

They have protected actively hackers. With a snap of a finger, truths about sponsors, who worked together with hackers, have been removed to protect them or lies have been spreaded. Outstanding people, who do not work for this industry very quick get the impression, some kind of Mob is ruling GPWA.

Michael in the public tried at least two times to discredite me and to call me a liar. He got busted both times also by evidence from other members. He lied to make me look like a liar. Without success, fortunately. What kind of people are doing such terrible things?

At least some actions from them confirm that feelings, because if you sent threats via PM to critical voices again and again, over years, when you censor like a Communist China Regime over years posts behind the back of the posters and corwardly DAYS AFTER they have been written, then this is a pattern, the philosophy and so I can only recommend to avoid any new sponsor at GPWA, not only because most of them are total flops or will start to cheat you sooner or later, because everything there was and is only about the money and not about the people.

But the people have the power. No more money to this corrupt organisation means, the empire will collapse and other forums will rise and take their fair share of this industry, hopefully in a different way, serious and always knowning, that without their people, the members, writing and reading, any sponsorship makes no sense, because views and posts are the only thing that matters.

On the contrary to others I do not lie. I always say, what no one else will say, because most members at GPWA fear, that they will lose their account, if they say their opinion and the truth.

If this, the fear to lose something if one speaks out, if this is not the environment like a Mob or China Communist regime, what else could it be?

They do not care about you, Moonlight Cat. They never did and they never will. It was only a show.

My support to you over the years there was never a show. It was always the truth.

I can already hear, how the GPWA rulers thinking about to request a removal of this post ...
