Leo,

When I originally read this, I had to supress a giggle. I
find it amusing that you claim to have the interests of
either your advertisers or your host sites, when you simply
refuse to do anything to help them. You won't send me, and
many other webmasters, money that is owed. You won't add a
return address to the checks. You ignore e-mails. You
allow and condone fraud. Over 20 people have posted
negative remarks about your banner service on one mailing
list alone (click-l), at least that number contacted me
privately after my first disgruntled post, and I have also
talked with two advertisers of yours who are upset with how
you run.

I challenge you to show me ONE thing you've gone out of your
way to do to assist a host site... because everytime over
40 hosts I've spoken with have asked, you just say something
like: "oh well, I have xxxx other hosts that don't complain,
leave me alone."
