Today the competition between social media sites is fierce. In order to get people to sign up, most of these sites use different types of gimmicks (e.g. games to win points, points to share the profits, read emails for cash or points, etc.). Sometimes these so called gimmicks don't quite work out the way they should. People don't receive their cash or points on time, the admin does not respond to member's complaints in a timely manner, or a gimmick never does get off the ground. As a result, some members switch their focus from networking to the problems with the gimmick(s). Their constant complaints cause the site to develop a bad rep. More members quit and very few new people join.
If this happened to a site that you were a member of, what would you do?

It HAS happened and my income dropped from $115 a month to a couple of dollars, but I hang in there anyway. I learned LONG ago that these sites never pay what they project, even though I have over 50,000 in my referral tree. The key to social sites is MAKING FRIENDS that are also interested in earning online. Then when they tell you how stinking frustrated they are, just lead them to a better way to make money faster. I have found THOUSANDS of referrals that way.

That is great advice oldbuddy! I'm part of one said site, but not very active. I need to get that way! It's not about the money they offer there, but there is a lot of fun things to do and I need to start promoting my sites some.

If a site turns out to be flaky or dishonest, I dump it and do something more productive with my time.

If you compare our banners here, I don't think you can say my time was unproductive, can you?
