    Hello everyone, my name is Ian and I work for 1plus.net: the owners and operators of AdShack.com. Thanks also to the person who directed me towards this thread.

    Some misconceptions and partial truths about AdShack I wanted to clear up.

    Yes, we are serving YPN ads into the european space and, although we are not owned by Yahoo themselves, they do have an extremely high stake in what were doing, in what format and on who we allow as publishers - this includes a very strong influence over the individual approval process of publishers.

    The platform has not really been released properly yet and certain tests, approval processes, administration modules and multi-load server balancing has only just been completed. I therefore apologise if news of our existence leaked out a little early and some of you guys are still waiting for approval / stats et al.

    AdShack.com is in no way a scam. Our parent company (1plus.net Ltd) is a well financed and mature digital media company based in the UK with offices in both the UK and in San Francisco, CA.

    Hopefully all should be resolved either later today or tomorrow and I look forward to having some of you guys as partners. Although Im not allowed to discuss reasoning behind the approvals process, I can only recommend that if you sign up to AdShack.com you submit as your published site one that has unique and compelling content and the site adheres to our TOS. By ensuring the quality of publishers at the front end helps us maintain the goal of paying the highest RPC in the marketplace.

    If you have any questions then please do feel free to submit them to us using our ticketed help desk (now manned), our FAQ's or via our mini-forum.

    Thanks for your interest in AdShack.com

    Okay Buddy Explain this
    I place Adshack ads for three days on my website and see no impressions so I remove your ads.
    I send a mail and a reply comes late that my account has not been validated while I do see ads and I am able to log into my account.

    Why were ads being shown on my site on the first place without my permission when I place your ad code when I didnt got paid for it.

    Secondly your system is not transparent. It was written that account info is updated every 10 minutes and I dont get any information from your site.

    I was not even mailed if I have been accepted or not just when I login it told me account closed. Every ad network does inform its users but not you.

    And my account gets closed after I remove your ads without being paid.

    Your affiliation with Yahoo seems ridiculous as yahoo has a unique yahoo tag for every site it owns.

    Hello Badger and welcome to DP forums,

    I am one of the ones that signed up and placed ads on one of my sites. I see my account has been closed, what is the reasoning behind this. I can only assume it is because I removed the ads, the reason I did this was because I was not getting credited for the ads and I had no contact from yourselves after several days.

    Also is Max who posted earlier in this thread as Adshack part of your team as he claims?

    I added this to my site a few days ago and I added the code to my site like the instructions said. I haven't had an email to say my account was accepted or rejected and I have no impressions recorded in my admin panel but the ads were being shown on my site.

    They are just a scammers with useless reasons .
    They even dont sent the reason of closing an account + many users have lost the impressions for nothing .

    + the Email show the non-professionalism of the team .

    Do you think that you are Smart ?

    I'm waiting..., with adshack code on one of my websites, and no impressions count, email of confirmation for a week etc as others has reported.... but still I know that more than 80% of my visitors to that website are from UK, so its 'kinda' interesting what is 'comingup' - why not to try. :) Adshack says they target UK traffick - lets try....

    'they do have an extremely high stake in what were doing' ... what does that mean - what stake do they have in you specifically?

    I don't believe that DP members badger or adshack are bonafide representatives of Adshack.

    I also believe I am wasting far too much time looking into this:(

    If anyone does ever get paid from them it would be interesting to know.
