I have read through this whole thread, and I would like to try and clarify some false hoods being posted in here. By falsehoods, I don't mean liars per say, but, perhaps misinformed.
Lets address Pirates Riches first. This is a brand new site, yes, but does this mean she will not pay out on her contests? NO it does not. For someone to assume she cant, is just being paranoid. No one should black ball a GPT site or any other kind of site until there is definitive proof that the site is not going to pay as promised. Then, if they don't, then is the time to go after them with a vengeance . You have NO clue what her financial status is, so for you to assume she will not pay, or will mark you as a cheater to keep from being paid, is presumptuous in itself.
I have come to realize that most posters who claim these types of problems, and try to black ball a site with no proof are most often than not, ones who have been banned from this site. So lets discuss being banned or being banned as a cheater. Because again I have seen ALOT of false info coming in on that also.
Let me be clear on something first, I own Fire House offers. Just want that in the open first.
When a site, such as myself, pirates riches, and others, have to mark someone as a cheater it is because we have been informed through other sources, including our sponsors, that these people are to be removed as cheaters. Last night, due to a couple of other sites losing some new sponsors and over a hundred offers, due to people thinking they can cheat the system, we went through all their banned IP address and banned about 10 people also. WHY would we do this? AND let me be very clear here, there were ONLY 2 of those users that did maybe 3 offers total....so...WHY ban them? Because they love to sign up for every GPT site out there, and then do the same offers over and over again. And the Next thing we as site owners know, is that, we have been banned from one of our own sponsors because of cheating idiots, and we have now lost ALL of the OFFERS they had to offer us.
DO we get PAID for this?
? NOOOOOO!!!!!! Let me be very clear on that! When a sponsor says get rid of such and such user, and their offers are reversed we dont get paid either! So whoever said earlier, that as site owners we sit back and collect those big fat checks, and mark people as cheaters is dead wrong. Believe me, we dont make that much money! In fact I will be honest enough to tell you exactly how I offer what In offer. I pay out 1/3 of what the sponsor pays me, then 1/3 I put towards contests and upgradeing the site, and 1/3 is split between the 4 of us who own the site. I dont know about you all, but, when I work my site nearly 10 hours a day, and then have someone insinuate that we are just bringing in those "fat checks", well, its pretty upsetting. We put alot of work into these sites.
So in closing, if you are NOT doing offers (the same offers) mulitple times on different sites, and you are not using fraudulent info, name address phone etc, and fraudulent CC using, then, you have nothing to worry about. BUT when the advertiser tells the sponsor that we have fraudulent activity, then, we are going to deal with it or risk losing our business.
Because believe me when I say, I DONT like working 10-15 hours a DAY on our site, just to have a few ruin it for everyone!
So if you want to give the facts then do so. But dont just ramble about nothing that you know nothing about.
