Its been over a year since there has been a contest or a promotion on here.  Somebody is slacking.

I think those are a thing of the past.

I guess a contract involved in such things expired and was never renewed.

Good question. At least let us know something.

I agree with you. The contests and promotions were always a lot of fun to answer every week. I too am sorry they have not been around for so long. I also miss the high paying HyperMx videos FC used to have. Now they are only worth 1 cent each.

Yes, I always enjoyed them and looked forward to seeing the money posted, it always seemed like a surprise when it came in.  I also miss Radiology.  I liked getting paid to listen, because I listen to music anyway.

With those other things, it did make getting a check every other month a lot easier. Now the qualifications are slow but it's still extra money for me!

The probably won't.  Lot of things have went away.  Remember when they use to have the search thing and you could get your 5 cents from that.  It is a lot harder when tap is screwed up.  I don't think it is messed up right now so much as they are changing.  I am not getting credit for anything on there.  It just says you did not qualify and immediately shoots me to another page where I can click "find me another survey".  After about 10 I was like yeah I am done with this.

I joined long after contests/promotions, but I wish I would have been around for them. The person I joined under mentioned them a lot and it was a reason I joined, as well as the forum.

I really don't think I remember ever seeing this.  I do remember so thing they done and you have to make 3 posts or something.  I never figured out what was going on and did not even bother.  Only certain ones got credit.

I enjoyed the contests and promos, including the last FC Fantasy Football.  I feel much more convinced today that all the credit goes to Kohler's personal interest in trivia and sports that made those weekly contests 'happen' to begin with.  While I was not using FC when they were initially rolled out, I soon picked up on the fact that they were becoming somewhat irregular.  Ultimately, they were becoming too time-consuming for Kohler to manage and he literally drifted away from keeping them current.  In my opinion, having stated all of this, it could have been a simple budget cut, too.

The contests were always fun.  I would sometimes forget about them until I read something in the forum, and I was always entertained when I took part in them.  It was a good way to add on a few extra cents.  I remember the search feature, too.  One thing is for sure, you can expect change whether you are happy about it or not -- in ALL areas of life.
