Hi myLotters, I am surprised today to see that tuibux is down, I think it's because maintenance server or whatever problem. Hybux also having same problem last week, but now it came back again. I like hybux since it offers lot of ads and pays more than the regular PTC, but do you all still believe and clicking on PTC website that experienced this server maintenance problem? I mean, how can you run a website when you forget to pay the host server? It shows either the owner are so stupid they forget something crucial or they want to taking advantage of the members. Unless it is attacked by hackers, I simply cannot trust those websites. So, how about you? Share it here.

My experience, from using A few sites that went down either due to hosting problems, or forgetting to pay a bill for the domain, or even being attacked, is not a good sign.
I was a member of visit4cash before it was supposed to have been hacked, A few weeks later it came back online and was offering people cheaper upgrades.
Just recently I checked in only to find that the site is up for sale now, I am glad that I have not been spending a lot of time there, but am disappointed that I had made payout and was never paid.
My advice be careful of sites that claim to be legit, many of these sites that claim to have problems are trying to get your and my money, and then shortly after just disappear.

You hit on a few different potential issues here. Were they down for maintenance or did not pay their bill? This is an important distinction.
Maintenance may just mean that they experienced a vast increase in traffic. If they are using a web hosting company that offered "unimited" bandwidth on a shared server then this could simply mean that the web hosting company decided they were too big a drain on the shared server and moved them to a dedicated server. This can happen without the website owner's knowing it. It happened to me on one of my sites.
If they did not pay their bill, then that is a much different issue. At best, this shows financial irrespinsibility. At worst, it shows that they are running out of money. If they did not pay the bill, then it may only be a matter of time before they do not pay their members.

Yes!We have to suspect some sites which vanishes for a while due to server problems.They should at the least inform the members before hand.Ignoring the same is not trust worthy.Recently,this hybux is still facing some problems.How can a owner be over confident about its members that they will return back after all their taking for granted.No!we can't continue wasting our time.nomincashout is a good recent example.Cheers!
