Seriously? These Videos are Horrible.
« on: September 07, 2013, 08:29:23 am »
I've watched 4 or 5 videos today and I got credited for ONE.  One of the videos just kept going on and on.  At first it was a video over 4 minutes long.  Right after that, it went in to a video that was over EIGHT MINUTES LONG.  It stated right at the top of the video that I haven't been credited yet!  Are you kidding me???  This video paid one cent and I have to sit there for 13 minutes or longer?

Then, I get the 1/2 cent videos.  I think I played the "Forge of Empire" video 3 or 4 times and haven't gotten credit for that, either.

I played numerous videos yesterday in order to make the 5 cents for today's PTC.  I only got credited for TWO of those videos.  So, all in all, I've made 3 cents towards today's PTC.

If these places are going to cut the credit in half to watch lengthy videos, I think they should make sure that we are going to be credited for them.  Absolutely horrible!  I don't think I'll be visiting the videos anymore!

I would keep trying, this morning I did well over 10 videos.  It could be a slow internet connection is your problem.  It seems it has to load the whole page before doing whatever countdown timer there is.

If I were you, I'd keep going with the videos. Some of the videos lately require you to only click open the page or click the play button on the video to get credit. Takes a few seconds and they're worth 1 cent.

FC added the length to the end of the description of the videos so members could easily avoid the longer ones if they wanted. Also, there is a button on the lower right side of the screen where you can turn off the half cent videos.

Some of them are really long. but it is pretty easy money, so I just keep struggling.

I have watched a few and not gotten the credit. I try not to let that bother me I guess but it is frustrating. They are pretty long videos too. I would think that the videos aren't longer than a minute but a lot are 2-3 even 5 minutes long. I gave up on them and just listen to the radio, when that works properly  ???
