already earned $69!! What the freak is going on? Donations??? Why the heck should we pay them for running THEIR site? We are employees. Does your boss ask you for money to pay the building rent? This whole ptc world is getting ridiculous. Boy, I need another darn vacation!!!!

Not only WorldClix but also Croclix. Perhaps, the DDOS protection is too expensive. But it looks very unprofessional for a site to ask for donations . I'm worried about this. I hope they'll not close their sites.

We have all gone down that road before right guys? Its called quantity versus quality. You have to weed thru the bad to find the good ones. Or you can spend a lot of time on mylot and find it whats going on.

CroClix and WorldClix are the same family (or should I say 'clan' as in mafia?). Both sites are giving me a '404 not found' error at this present time - damn'em!

BurnBux was the same way. Their payout was only $1, I was almost half the way from requesting payout, and then the went offline. They didn't say it was ddos attack either. Next thing I notice is they started asking for $5 donations, and they indicated they needed the donations from at least 20 members, if we wanted to see the site back up - WTHeck? ~ I started laughing so hard it was really funny and you couldn't have put it better. Better yet, when I get back to work next week, if I asked my boss, do they need help paying the building's rent, I bet he wouldn't say No. So I guess the site admin feels the same. It's a shame he could afford $100 just to stay in business (at least that is the way they want us to believe). I think some of them are gangster scammers and just want to hood wink people out of as much cash as they possibly can. Which is why I don't invest in upgrading. So if the go offline due to poor financial management of funds, so be it. Sorry about your $69, hope you are able to recoup it and hopefully they will have more than enough donations to reach their goal to get back online so that you can get paid.

And they really expected donations without giving a reason for requesting the money? How could anyone fall for that??? Atleast give a darn reason. If they cant afford to pay their bills, they cant afford to pay their members, period. How come members cant see that?
