This I got yesterday, apperently they don't like that i post in forums
the fact that i don't get paid from them, I did nothing wrong.
in fact, they double checked my traffic and said it was OK (2nd Mail)
then I got an e-mail after a telephone conversation with the owner of Updated.com (3rd mail), I put some screenshots in that prove otherwise as they say.
so basically, YES i'm pretty sure they won't pay
( see sample screenshot of my members area for the month of august

Klaas,
We are in the process of taking you to court both here in the US and in the Netherlands. Our terms and conditions are clear your account is closed you choose to not follow them and you for what you are doing you will have to pay depending on how many people are reading it per day. Every reader counts for us and we will get paid from you.
Have a nice weekend!

Klaas,
Your account has been reactivated and your payments will be sent!
We reviewed your account and its fine although the reason your account was on hold was because we detected clicks from same IP network and that is not allowed as you know.
Can you let me know what months you were not paid because It shows that the August check was indeed mailed to you.
I guess there was a miscommunication due to your email being blocked and maybe thats why this took place. I guess it could also be a good reason for you to write and change your posts.
Let me know on your payments and also after you change the posts so I can also review them. Good to have you back!
Have a nice day and let me know if you ever need something!
Thank you,
Maria

I added a few notes regarding screenshots I made
Klaas,
You had a conversation regarding the clicks and from what was told to you the keyword "clipart" was not an approved keyword (see screenshot
http://www.100000freecliparts.com/updated-bids.gif ) or based on our Affiliate terms and conditions. As you also know no one in the industry of PPC has any advertisers interested in paying for that traffic. You have also accused our company wrongfully making false representations on boards acting as if you are more than one person.
Inspite of all that we have tried to work with you possibly by asking you to deliver traffic on other keywords NOT "clipart" where we do have advertisers and are willing to accept you to our program but you were not willing to do so either that gives us no option but to close your account effective today and will pay you for everything that we owe you where we have generated revenue and will send you a check in the mail this week.
I am sorry but in our terms and conditions we clearly state (and in your
stats) what qualified clicks and suggest you read those before you deliver traffic. Before we send you a check you must remove all wrongfull posts you have added or we will withhold your check. Our stats indicate what we owe you but we review all revenues every month and if you have abused our program by sending us 45% of your clicks on non advertiser links while we warned you to correct it but you choose not to.
(see screenshot stating that there are in fact 3 advertisers
http://www.100000freecliparts.com/clipart-search.gif )
I am sorry you were not able to understand this and work along with us but it is fairly simple we have a share revenue agreement and we dont pay for clicks we do not earn money from. We reviewed your clicks and 45% of those were for "clipart" and generated no revenues.
If you have an idea to help resolve this or offer a long term business relationship then feel free to let me know.
Thank you,
Maria
