Banned referral

fig2k4edited
I noticed that one of my referrals disappeared from my referral page. I'm guessing that they were up to no good and got themselves banned. Pity, cause I could've made a little extra from them this month. 🙂

Anyway, is there any chance of being notified when a referral gets a warning or banned? It would be nice to see a reason for them disappearing.

Edit: ..or have second list in the referral centre for any banned referrals, with a simple reason for the ban.

    We cannot provide this information as it is a private matter between that user and AdFoc.us. I wish there was a way to have some sort of communication with the referred user but I do not see a good method of doing it so that the user maintains privacy. Any suggestion?

    In the comings weeks we will be auditing the user base more often so these referrers will disappear much quicker. I think that is a step in the right direction so users who referred those users can expect their referred users to be audited on specific dates.

    In case that the user is unwarned or unbanned, you will see that user ID reappear in your referrer earnings.

    I've attached a quick mock up for my suggestion about the referral centre.

    I don't really need to communicate with the referrals or know the detailed reason for the ban etc. I would only be interested in why they aren't in my list any more.

    Something like in the pic would be give all the info I need.

    Bare in mind it's just a suggestion. I don't expect you to rush away and implement this, especially since you have a new system in the works..

    It was more from a coding point of view than as a user. Most users probably wouldn't notice it, but for me it just seems more complete to show some info about the referrals that have been trying to con the system, instead of just removing them from the list.
