I have 1 person under me.

I personally signed up one other, and did not get credit.
I talked another friend through the process over the phone, and did not get credit. Hence the post you reference.

By the way, I've seen many posts about affiliates losing their affiliateship(sp) if they don't sign up new folks each month.
I have one, he signed up in Jan.
So far, they've kept paying me.
