    I saw the link to subscribe to this forum somewhere, but can't remember where. I've looked and looked all over here and can't find it. Can someone points me in the right direction please?

    I start by sending them a polite e-mail asking them to double check their information. Then if you remember tell them a little about the survey and offer to retake. I've found that being nice is much more effective.

    Patricia Kuo. Ironically the hit I listed earlier as my oldest pending hit. I sent her a message telling her that I always copy and paste my codes. I also double check them.

    Do you mean the RSS feed?

    It's on the main page. It's the small orange button.

    I signed up with American Consumer Opinion. I don't know anything about them though and haven't done any of their surveys yet, so this isn't a recommendation, just throwing it out there. They seemed legit.

    A controller just seems so much more convenient to me in something like Skyrim. Too much hand gymnastics with M&K.

    Oh, I laughed and laughed and laughed. They worked really hard to try to get me back to 1 bar. I felt loved.

    https://www.opinionoutpost.com (not that bad - can cash out via Paypal at $10)
    http://www.ipoll.com/ takes forever to approve surveys
    https://www.globaltestmarket.com/ (you need $50 to cash out - took me months)
    http://www.clearvoicesurveys.com/ (not that bad, still need to fill out demo info but if you are disqualified, you at least get $0.10 - can cash out at $10 via Amazon gift card)

    To each their own, I suppose. I have a problem playing those types of games with a controller. I was playing Daggerfall years before Morrowind came out...Before that I spent a lot of my childhood playing the Might and Magic series and the D&D Gold Box games...So I've spent most of my life playing first-person WRPGs with a keyboard and mouse.

    http://www.darwinsdata.com/

    If you sign up with darwins data and they accept you, they will send you an email to fill out an online profile and award you $10.00 amazon, took about 30 min.

    I got accepted with Pinecone this week after trying for like a year.... I think it was because on my household had teenagers

    Opinion Outpost used to be my favorite survey site when they first started. They seemed to send out tons of surveys each month and I'd qualify for most. I even won 2 of their $50 lotteries. You could also cash out at $5.00. But I quit them after they started to change things up. I wasn't qualifying for 8 out of 10 surveys, after spending a good 10-15 minutes answering tons of questions about products (yeah, right! They got the answers they wanted and just said I didn't qualify, just like Survey Spot and Lightspeed does). Then they raised their cash out to $25. Even their lottery spins dropped from $50 to $15. They used to be a much better sight, IMO.

    I only do Pinecone now (and Knowledge networks, but I can refer anyone to them) because I'm sure to get paid with every survey.

    I tried sliceofthepie (I think that is what it is called), but decided they are a total rip off. Besides they kept giving me this horrid rap music and when I would say 'total crap' they would say, 'you call that a review'...it just didn't work for me.

    Also, this is a copy of something that I posted a week or so ago:

    Every once and awhile, I see people post about other sites/apps they use to make money/get rebates. I wanted to pass these 2 along in case anybody wants to look into them (both of which are available in itunes - probably available for Android but not sure).

    Gigwalk (which I am under the impression has a relationship with Microsoft) basically involves doing "gigs" while you are out shopping/dining. I have seen 2 types of gigs:

    1) Go to Restaurant X; take a picture of the outside (using Photosynth app w/ location info); take 2 or 3 panoramic shots of the inside of the place; take 2 pictures of points of interest in the place (e.g., bat, hostess stand); upload using the app: Pay = $10

    2) Go to grocery store and find a certain display (whoever the requester is) take and few pictures; jot down info and maybe talk to manager if display not set up Pay = approx $8

    I am not interested in going into a restaurant and taking pictures so I have not done that type. I tried doing a Toblerone gig but once I got home and went to upload photos, I realized that I need the location info embedded in pictures and I had turned that feature off (I always turn that off); rather than go back, I just returned it

    People seem to rate Gigwalk very well (I get emails from them saying check out our new gigs, etc

    The sexond is Mobee which looks to be similar but you get points per gig and then redeem points. When I looked at it (and reviews on itunes) say "this is great and it pays but really only available jobs in NYC and Boston)

    Anyway, like I said, I am just posting this in case this type of stuff appeals to anyone


    I have not really spent that much time with them but you can read reviews about them on itunes if you are interested
