They are indeed dying. There's only 1 board that makes significant money, and even that one makes less now.

I don't think this bodes well for the affiliate marketing system.

How many different ways are people going to say how the affiliate marketing system is slower than it used to be? This is just one more way. The glory days are gone.

If one wants to indulge in reminiscence, there's a board for that.

If one wants to bemoan the state of affairs in the industry, there's a board for that too. Might even be the same one.

I didn't say it was slower than it used to be. I said the future may not look to bright. It may disappear as an easy way into porn. A lot of discussion lately about the high cost of affiliate traffic.

There is more than one "board" that makes significant money

I thought we were just discussing business boards that didn't take the money and run. Anyone can rob and steal and make money.
