brangeline: I think there's a problem in affiliate links

Thanks for reporting. I took your second affiliate link and loaded a browser that I never use: Opera. I pasted it in and created a new user called thisisatest. I then checked your account and I see the user there in your affiliate section. You can do this same test if you have any doubts. I suspect your friends didn't sign up or didn't use your affiliate link. If you have them contact support, we can add them as your affiliate.
