But with that said, over the years we have been hounded, spat on, harassed, and lied about over and over again. Most times by the same people, or the same people behind it. It has not been fair, and it has been repeated over and over again. It is of course damaging to us, but more importantly, it could be damaging to our clients - which is the last thing we would ever want. So when this came up again this time, by someone behind yet another "nick", the final straw was broken.
Since the MPA2 (not MPA3) incident a DECADE ago took place, we have repeatedly apologized.
It has been many many years, and many things have happened in our industry. With us, our clients, and our competition.
Here are some posts in OLD threads that hopefully can shed some light on the issue:

" I will tell the story again.
When we started to write the MPA2 program like 6 ( SIX ) years ago we got told that this would probably be a great feature to add. Stupid as we where we wrote this in and started to promote the program, then we pretty fast got reactions from not only webmasters who have seen the online demo BUT also from program owners. We realized how stupid this was and we took it out from the code.
Yes we did a mistake and we are really sorry for that. But we where just a programming company that programmed what was requested at that time. You have to remember that the adult business was totally different back in 2000 when we first wrote the mpa2, and the code wasn't for long in the program either before we took it out of all programs!"

" Yes we did a bad choice when we gave after for adding the module and for that we are sorry, but we have learned and we have paid our price. "

Signupdamnit (whoever you "anonymous" person is) - We find it highly suspicious that you have spent so much time on finding negative information about us after all those years, yet couldn't find these. Did you do all this work all on your own?
Things that makes you go hmmmmm...

So you admit that you had it moved? "Future legal reasons" What are you going to do sue everyone for telling the truth? If that's the case then it definitely doesn't look like you guys changed very much in the last decade.....
What you really should do now is ask that the old topic be restored in full to show you have nothing to hide. Then quit trying to call everyone who ever brings up the incident a troll or a member of some sort of conspiracy against you. Let time heal your wounds.
The only reason I replied in the old topic was because the link to the "apology" (even Yanks_Todd admitted it was weak) you gave before was a very weak apology and your excuse cited was that you put the shave feature in to "help prevent affiliate fraud". For you to still be advancing that lame bullshit excuse in 2012 just shows there are ethical problems still on your end. Not to mention it being an insult to the intelligence of affiliates. IMO, this is much worse than the original incident itself.
Try being honest, admit your mistakes, and quit trying to push people around. Then you won't have to have threads removed or have people bringing up your skeletons. I gain nothing by doing this but I did it because your actions necessitated it.
