The official affiliate program by MindArk (2009-20xx) and the german XARXA GmbH

I've lured in a few hundred. Only 1 player is active and he just sweats from the monthly spending statistics I am given...
I get a % of their decay, regardless of their loots.
I get my ped via ingame ped center without notification.

So first step was filling an Inquiry Form to let them know what my service was (pedtoclick)
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P_AZwwfjGP1IDbLnuBNpjJE5ME94F6Dw8f0FBblNqSk/edit?usp=sharing


There is also the cease and desist I received AFTER filling that form and being accepted and allowed to use their logo and whatnot, because there is zero communication by the CEO and the underlings.

Just curious, is that actually you or a representative for you? Seems odd that a CEO would spend his important time for DMCA reports.
And is EntropiaPartners approved? I am just curious. If not why are they not also being targeted?

Thanks for your time. Once again I just want to help the non depositing community so they an stay around and not quit.

Answer to your first email, A Cease and Desist email has more effect
from either Legal or the CEO.
I like to know whats going on in all areas of MindArk, so I am
involved in many projects.

Hello,

I am following up a discussion regarding affiliate possibility. We have reworked the plan and I am now looking for a few selected affiliates, in different countries, that can contribute to the development of Entropia Universe the years to come.

As you understand, EU has been going on for quite some time, and the fact that it is based on a real economy we have players that continue playing it for years.

Lately I have been reaching out to the community to find candidates in the local countries that I think we fail to reach, Spain and Russia being two of them, and now South Korea.
I want to share an interesting video that sort of give the scale of the history and the economy that I think have attracted quite a few to EU.

What country and language could would you represent? And what are your experiences in online marketing, viral marketing, streaming and blogging?

Here is an excerpt from the affiliate document, the rest is not really interesting.

Players don't send in the data, MA does and its anonymous so I don't know who I have reffered. I have a set percentage, the standard amount is 15% I believe.

 

Very informative. I like how you shared comms that said you couldn't share them too

Interesting they got shirty about you mentioning Entropia Universe or MA on your site.

 

Yea it's funny
You can't just write in the signature of an email that it is confidential, it doesn't work that way. Same goes for putting it in a document that you send via email.

 

Interesting. I bet a lot of companies try stuff like that though, simply because it is far easier to just confidently imply something and I bet 99% of people go along with it. Especially if they have no particular reason not to.
