Text-Link-Ads change Referral Links (AGAIN!)

    What gives?

    Only last month they give affiliate members 1 week to change ALL their affiliate urls to crappy tinyurl.com. I was one of the many who complained.

    Now if you go into the affiliate area, all the links are now javascript based and some form of obscuration for the OLD ORIGINAL ID

    Eg the javascript produces a link like
    http://www.text-link-ads.com/?ref=36391

    How are people meant to use the link in signatures and places that javascript won't support.

    No official word from T-L-A yet. No email.

    I might just resort to using my old links again

    Geez, so people are supposed to keep changing their links to keep pace with the latest url change? <sigh>

    Thanks for the info.

    Now why didn't they do this in the first place instead of that tinyurl stuff. Personally the urls are better kept so that they are not javascript.
