ComeOnEdgy  iGaming operator Comeon.com has sparked the fury of the igaming affiliate community by using the images of historical tyrannical dictators – Hitler, Stalin and Kim Jong il to promote their affiliate programs ‘No Negative Carryover’ messaging.

The images used on the operators affiliate program Comeon.comearn came to light when CMO of Winner.com Yoni Sidi posted the images on popular igaming Facebook Group – Igaming Notworkers.  Mr Sidi inquired as to why a gaming operator would use Hitler, Stalin and Kim Jong il to promote their brands to affiliates, and whether the operator knew the significance of using these three historical figures.

Affiliate reaction to the images used by the operator soon spread throughout the igaming affiliate community with all commentators agreeing that the messaging and imagery used by ComeOn.com to promote their affiliate program to be distasteful.
