Seems like this is the crux of the argument. He asked you for a favor, you did it expecting to get paid. Can the two of you see each other's side? Do you think Dean was trying to screw you over, or can you see that he was asking a peer for assistance? Can Dean see that you were hurt that something that he's compensated others for, he didn't think to compensate you for?

I don't think Doog expected to get paid (initially). If that was his motivation he would probably ask for the specific amount beforehand. My guess is that Dean got pissed off/felt back-stabbed after Doog publicly described the flaw (after it was fixed) which was somewhat damaging to the site's (if not Dean's) reputation. So if the subject of bounty came up after that - that's probably why he refused to pay. Again, that's just my guess.

Anyway, they're both adult men (I assume) and they can sort that between themselves, if they're both willing to.

@Dean - cutting out BAC was a dick move. You seriously think he created new thread 'so people can troll more'? He obviously started it to get more affiliates = more traffic to PRCdice. If your post remained locked, his would be the main source of traffic BTCtalk --> prcdice, which is better than nothing. He was on your side.

Sounds like you blame him for the posts of others. If he didn't start new thread, someone else would, I was thinking about it too (for the same reasons: affiliates --> traffic) but he beat me to it.

And if, for whatever reason, you didn't want him to promote your site, then you should have just tell him to stop and not pay for any NEW affiliates, but you still should pay him for the old ones. It's a mutual agreement.

Speaking about affiliates, will payments be done today (Monday)? Also, is there a limited period for which we get the % of affiliate activity, or is it 'for life'? It's not specified in terms.
