I'm not home right now so can't write a detailed explanation for you, however this is what happenned in basic words.
The old estimated rate that was used for calculating the rough ESTIMATED total earnings was very outdated and from when we still used google Adsense. I just brought it down to be more realistic.
If I manage to get a new developer to get adcraft 2.0 done then the rate should go up a advertisers will be happier with more content
Okay, so it seems like your new CPM is roughly $2.00 / 1,000 visitors. That's still higher than adf.ly, which weighs in at about $1.55 CPM, but you really need to work on paying people in a timely manner.
So Adcraft can be successful, offering higher CPM than Adf.ly, but right now I think you have a serious public relations problem because of these "incidents" and these pay delays. You have got to get people paid.
I may not have the patience to deal with you any more but I do hope that you get fired because you were proably the worst thing that happened to VikomMedia.
No, I quit, adcraft, like, as a job, weeks ago you derp
I have adblock set up, and the site makes me wait way longer. In my opinion adf.ly is way better as it is only a 5 second wait.
No I will not remove adblock, if I wanted a modder to get money I would make sure they don't get a tiny percent of what the site makes, I would donate directly to them.
That's fine, but we have to add some penalty because we have to pay for those clicks anyway. Also Modders get the majority of the money anyway.
Even so, I would rather donate money straight to the developer so that I know for a fact that they get all the cash. From what I've read on the last two pages, you are failing to pay them what they earned, and in fact you are taking money from the amount that they earned.
The mod developers are basically getting screwed by your service as you fail to pay them, but you still get enough to pay for the site and go into your pocket.
Guys just switch to adfly.. the sooner the better. I did that around november because I was paranoid since october's payout was constantly delayed. On hindsight, had I stuck with adcraft at that time, I'd be sulking over 3 months of delayed payouts.
This site seems to be causing too much trouble so just switch and be happy with adfly. I visit this thread sometimes just to see the complaints lol.
As a user, I have been attempting to download an AdCraft hosted file for some time now. My experience has been plagued with gateway errors and endless wait times. These downsides far outweigh the potential benefits to the end-user. Even if, in some lapse of judgment, I click a false download link in Adf.ly, I can press the back button and have the file downloaded within a minute. The inconvenience of AdCraft is too great to warrant usage.
It's a shame; the concept is ideal, but the execution is far from perfect. For now, I urge modders to make things easier on both the users and themselves by choosing the superior Adf.ly.

Apparently its being DDoS'd with the scammers trying to make a couple of bucks.
I'm dissapoint. $3.68 from 1841 clicks! What the heck? I was suppose to get 12 dollars by the end of the month and I'm getting nothing now? Why did the money go ****ing down? I freaking trusted you guys and this happens? I don't even know why this thread is still alive, this is such a ****ing scam.
I am a relatively known modder here. I have created this account because I do not want to tarnish reputation on here since what I'm saying may be looked down upon, but I WILL be suing Adcraft if I do not receive my payment this month. I started using AdCraft about 3 weeks ago, but now reading over this thread, I am starting to regret it since it looks like you are scamming people out of their hard earned and deserved money. If I do not receive my payment for January, you will regret it. Believe me, I do have the means to do this, and I have done it to another website similar to this one before.
Please get your act together or you will be sorry you didn't.

No he does not.

did you ready my post though?
You have earned roughly $2.97 from 1484 clicks!
I'm confused.
I got over 700 clicks recently, and my money went down
Full payouts were made for November on December 30th
January first you claimed that you received the money for December and October and that payments would be made soon. Has that not happened?
If you guys deal with your mistakes from the past I highly recommend getting this thread closed and opening a new one when you get your act together.
This site seems to be causing too much trouble so just switch and be happy with adfly. I visit this thread sometimes just to see the complaints lol.
So can we expect the money owed to us for December to be paid on January 30th?
Do you have a timetable for December payments?

You forgot to click the link to download.
The download mod link will only take you to the longer link that the creator made it with, is it taking you to a new page?
Read the blog devblog.adcraft.co
seems to be the rate
your guys method here is failing
we deleted all links that went to google, adfly, adcraft or other clearly illegitimate sites yesterday.
