This has now been confirmed by Titan as of today.

If a referred player goes to a different skin does the original affiliate still get paid?

TheDirtyAce · #13 09-21-2006, 01:28 PM

Only from the original skin.

Good to see they are putting a stop to this, even if it is long overdue and although its weird they allow a person to have multiple accounts on the network.

Casino Partners advised me a couple of months ago that I would not get any CPA at poker ocean for players who have previously deposited at Titan.
It kind of works out good for the ipoker network too. Players move between diferent poker rooms, not just for rakeback, they are just saving affiliate comission. I doubt if we will see too many more skins from now on, as I would guess that most affiliates will only promote 1 or 2 sites in the network from now on.

How is this good for affiliates?

This is a very bad decision for affiliates, it hurts us a lot more than it helps.

I can't believe this to be honest....It means I wont be promoting some rooms now anyway.

How is it good for affiliates to be set up to steal players from each other?
How is it good for anybody to have greater cheating to occur because of multiple accounts?
How is it good for various skins to be paying first time deposit bonuses to the same player over and over? That's dead stupid.

Some of these rooms take longer to figure out the obvious than others, but I doubt we'll see too much more of this dumb model where the cardroom pays over and over and over for the same thing. The bottom line is that it is always good for affiliates when cardrooms stop doing stupid things.

. . but the card room isnt ? Its each individual card room that pays, not the network(iPoker) that it connects to.

There is only one cardroom, iPoker. Don't confuse skins and doorways with "cardrooms".

This won't stop player stealing IMO. Everyone has friends with no accounts.
