While I'm sure the software sells it's self. I would be interested in a referral program.
Lol... I wished it too... Someone wanted me to work on their VB forums and I recommended them XF. They not only purchased the software but also branding free. The guy asked me if I was an affiliate and he could use my link... He was actually wondering why I would be recommending a product if I was not having any benefit out of it...
I myself don't have an XF licence but am recommending it.He was actually wondering why I would be recommending a product if I was not having any benefit out of it...
Let the lawsuit settle,after that it could come.A referral program would be great (Just like IPS).
An affiliate program is a project that may get some attention, in the future. For the moment, recommending XenForo gives that warm fuzzy feeling that you have helped out a fellow forum owner.
Umm what? You won't recommend this forum simply because you don't get something in return. WTF is this world coming to!That's nice. I'll hold off making recommendations for the time being and look forward to any possible program in the future.
Thank you for your reply.

I guess coming across people who help others out of goodwill has become just so rare that we find it hard to believe now.

All I meant was that the "He's being very helpful, he must be getting something for himself out of this!" mentality is becoming the norm for the majority of people, atleast in the online world, for whatever reason(s). And that's just sad...to say the least.Sadly the market capitalism of the last 30 years has destroyed a great deal of human community instincts.
Happily market capitalism has proved itself to be a bad unworkable system - as if history of the 30s didn't show us that already! People are going to HAVE to re- learn community now not from fuzzy libreal ideals but for hard survival. Working together, looking after each other just WORKS BETTER. Which is why we're hardwired to do it.

Same here, if I see someone refer me to something (which also financially benefits them, I don't mind being referred to other communities or sites and stuff) usually the first thought is "it's being done with some kind of self interest"I don't see the point of a referral program in a structured way.
If I have somneone tell me try this it's good - then I visit the site and it's got a referral program I instantly disbelieve the recommendation. It's being done for self interest.
