Many sites on the internet such as "Google Blogoscoped", "Digital Point", "JenSense" and others reported that Google has added this phrase about adsense referrals without informing users (The problem is with the "90 days"):
Some users said that last week the time limit rule was not there. No word from Google yet. I have an AdSense account with Google and I checked it, the new rule is there but I can't remember if it was there before. Some people have the feeling that Google does evil, or at least they are not fair.
* An AdSense referral is counted when a publisher, who has never previously enrolled in AdSense, creates an account and earns at least $100.00 within 90 days of sign-up. The referred publisher must be eligible for payment to qualify as a successful referral.
