Yes. Hardly works for me anymore. Maybe we'll get another one of those "I'm sorry it won't happen again" emails. I'm looking for a replacement, just dreading the time it's going to take to update all those links.

[jewelz]

I was thinking about switching to Nex-Cash anyway since they pay every two weeks, except I heard they use entrance pop ups. Didn't they used to have a Nex Cash Lite that didn't have entrance consoles? Couldn't find it on their site.

I got the same error . Candid Site not opening. :(

[candidpublishinginc]

Guys,

Please calm down! We found the problem! We hate downtimes as much as you all do.

The problem was misdiagnosed by our programmers the first time, and that's why it recurred.

We have finally narrowed down the problem, and we will not make it happen again.

We are going to monitor the database 24/7 to ensure such downtime doesn't happen again.

We're losing a lot of money everytime the database goes down and we sincerely apologize for the problems this may have caused you.

[shane94]

First off let me say that CandidClicks is one of the best payers out thier. These guys have never been late on ANY payments. That says alot to me. I agree they have had some down time lately but it is apart of life. Nothing runs 100% smooth all the time. Anyways I challenge any of you to send the same amount of traffic to ANY other blind sponcer and see who counts the most. I garanteee that Candid counts more. And unlike some they count ALL countries. It is just like dialers...some pay more some pay less but IMO go with the one who pays. And also concering the emails....how many other sponcers that you use let you know when they are having problems? I bet not many if any of the others....

you're down again

[candidpublishinginc]

Jewelz, how about you put that whistle away and calm down. Our co-location host was down due to power issues, completely out of our control (for an entire 40 minutes).

To all those concerned, all checks and paypal payments have been sent out today for Candid Clicks. We are also monitoring the database server around the clock to ensure no further problems, just as a precaution. The problem has already been remedied. ;)

You're SNOW aren't you? Damn! I just recognized the M.O.

I thought you only did dialer proggies.

[Nexcash]

jewelz,

No need to panic, I'm sure candid clicks will be back up soon. People need to understand that this happens from time it's no big deal as long as they compensate you for lost clicks like we do.

Here's what you were looking for: http://lite.nex-cash.com/index.asp

or you can try our new program:
http://www.totally4freecash.com
3 cents no ratios! or 75cent/free join no deductions!
no entry consoles!
super clean exit!(you can use it on any tgp including thehun)
counts all traffic but asian & russian (completely different than nexcash)!
checks every 2 weeks!

It just another option, but don't let technical difficulties make you leave a program you like.

Hey Al, nice to see you rising from the dead to spam your program on a Candid thread. Remember back in the day when you tried flaming us and accusing us of the same practice? Funny how things work out.

Anyways, nice to see your new little proggy is in effect. I remember "in May, something amazing comes this way". Glad to see it finally materialized for you. And that is great that you compensate webmasters for lost clicks, even though you don't pay for any english traffic. Kudos to you. Looks like you have been busy, as well as us (building our half a million dollar dialer network).

And Jewelz, you should really do your homework before you make such ludicrous statements... it really doesn't say much for yourself. Cheers.

[candidpublishinginc]

english = non english :D

[notr]

Hey guys

Downtime is part of the whole internet scene. There is NO company out there that I know of who has ZERO downtime. Impossible, Now Candid Clicks from what I hear from people is one of the best programs in it's category and I doubt they actually like the downtimes. Shit happens it gets fixed and that's the case here now.

Regarding that snow comment... ?????????
May want to join that spammers program.

Abby :D

[Nexcash]

Well I figured that I owed you one.

See how annoying it is. JK

The dialer thing sounds promising.

"in May, something amazing comes this way". Glad to see it finally materialized for you.",

That was actually another one of our programs: HYPER-FIND.COM (http://www.hyper-find.com)
6 cent/search!

This board is still better than tv.

Good luck with your tech problem, hopefully it's from growing too fast.

Peace.

Al at NEXCASH

[candidpublishinginc]

Alvin,

Congratulations on hyper-find.com! I wasn't aware that you released that in May. The first I heard of it was September. However, my personal favorite search engine program has to be mojosearch.com from Standard Internet. They also pay 6 cents a search and have been around for years. They also developed the very first blind link program. ;)

In regards to you not paying for Asian or Russian traffic, perhaps you should consider our dialer network to aid in revenue generation. We will offer some of the best paying Asian and Russian routes out there! With virtually no uncollectables on our international routes, it makes our dialer a true international billing solution!

Have a nice weekend Al. Cheers! ;)

Thanks dear heart.

[jewelz]

candid,

Everybody knows how you feel about Ron. However, the reason he is funny when he flames people and you are a loser is the choice of targets. 12Clicks goes after people who lie and say he didn't pay them. You flame webmasters who take the time to mention to others who might not be keeping track of their stats that their links aren't working when it's true.

Ron protects the truth. You, as they say in the movies, can't handle the truth.

Despite Ron's pink tights, goldie locks hair and satin cowboy hat, there's quite a bit he could teach you about being a man.

[candidpublishinginc]

Jewelz,

Before you finalize your decision of leaving us and changing all those links to nex-cash just keep in mind that we pay for ALL non english traffic. Nexcash on the other hand does not.

But if you want to leave that's fine....you might want to consider one of the following sponsors that we're friends with:

clickthrutraffic.com -Run by Standard Internet. These guys invented the whole concept of a blind link program.

frontpagecash.com - Run by my pal Ravo.

offshoreclicks.com - They run a blind link program, an exit program, and a dialer program.

I'm sorry Jewelz, but it appeared to us that you attacked our program.

"Yes. Hardly works for me anymore."

Last time I checked, that kind of statement is not considered unbiased reporting.

Here let give you an example of the proper and polite way to report these kind of problems to webmasters.

"Hey guys, in case you didn't know, Candid Clicks appears to be down again. Hopefully they will get everything up and running correctly soon, I'd hate to change all of my links over."

Also, like Shane said. We handle reporting of problems to our webmasters just fine through our Candid Clicks Bulletins that we email out.

Speaking of reporting. I'm happy to report that all systems are go with our database server. We're not sure why, but we had a recent spike of webmasters joining in October and this is when our database problems occured.

[snow]

No matter what you do or how hard you try to do your best,ther is always some little complaining bitch... You are really picking the wrong person to beef with.. I know them personally and if i ever dealt with ANYONE... It would be them Hands down...

I will use all of candids products soon..You could have done this with class befoire you talk shit... An email or a icq would be nice... All of you will end up being sponsors 1 day and you will see what bullshit this is..

[leroy_black]

Ok, I'm a total newbie here, but I just gotta give my perspective of what I've seen here in the week I've been involved.

Since when was it good business practice to antogonize your customers? They are making money off you, of course. But if you are running your business correctly, you are making even more money off them, right? Not much purpose to run the business otherwise. What happened to professionalism? Maybe I'm missing something here...

[candidpublishinginc]

Leroy,

We're not antogonize our webmasters.

We treat our webmasters with respect HOWEVER we except respect back too.

Jewelz was attacking us and saying things like "you're down all the time" and then posting "oh look you're down again!!"

This is what I would consider disrespectful.

You're being respectful to me and you're asking a legitimate question, you don't see me antogonizing you now do you? :)

I value your business, and I really hate to see downtimes. This isn't something that we like....and it makes it worse when we have a webmaster flaming us on the boards.

Also check your mail....you should have your paypal payment by now. :)

[shane94]

Well IMO jewelz if you are unhappy then go somewhere else. That is what I always tell people. And 90% of the time one week latter they are bashing the person that they went to....some people are just never happy.

Shane

[Groovy]

yup, some people have to shit on everything.

but if you want to run from candidclicks go to topcash, they're defenetely the best, but you better send the traffic to a dialer or something.

you should think of something yourself, and i'm sure you'll make more because the guy behind the program also needs to get his profit.

[Rui]

Well all I can say is that Michael (don't talk to much) is one of the most helpfull and cool guys I know in the adult biz!

jewelz - if it hardly works for you, then change sponsor instead bashing it without proves of what happend!

Gessss :rolleyes:

[Rui]

Upps the "(don't talk to much) " is incomplete lol
I meant "(don't talk to much to Steve) "

Topcash requires a conversion though. Many people got switched over to their per signup due to this.

I already listed some good non conversion sponsors :)

Thanks for the kind words Rui. :)

[Ravo]

Thanks for the recommendation Candid!

[DialerEntertainment]

I've been with Candid Clicks for about 4 months now and this is the first downtime I've ever experienced with them. They have fast response on customer service issues and they are always willing to help you with things you need done or to answer your questions. Best of all, they count more clicks than any other program I have used and always pay on time!
