After noticing our newest site affiliate, Glaiel_Gamer, I've thought of something. Why is it that NG user ShittyKitty (RG Profile) does not have Affiliate Status, even though RetroGade is already a site affiliate here.

I can understand why status wasn't given out to Josh Bedn (RG Profile) for obvious reasons, but with a new site owner, I think it's only right SK get Affiliate Status with the two sites already Affiliates. What reasons could there be for not giving it to him?

Note: I do not represent ShittyKitty or RetroGade. This is my own personal question as I see no sense to him not having it.

Indeed.

I was thinking of sending out an E-mail, but I don't tend to get responses from administrators and that would be overstepping my bounds independantly, I believe.

A Site Affiliation is when to sites link to each other in order to boost the hits of both sites. Using RetroGade as an example, with the RG link here, NG users are likely to visit RG, and vice versa.

Affiliate Status gives a user a blue name in the Who's Online part at the bottom of the forums, gives them ban-immunity, and allows him to make Front Page posts about his website.

Actually, There is a difference between a buddy site and a blue-named affiliation. Not all the buddy sites have a user account that has FP privelages to go along with it. ShittyKitty only has 1 flash, and no awards. I dont see why he would be an affiliate.

But Bedn, i really don't know. Is he a mod?

i dont see why 'shittykitty' should be given affiliate status..
retrogade does not contribute to newgrounds in any way.
and i dont want to read about it on the front page.
and shittykitty isnt exactly a mature user and i cant see front page posts being worth reading.
