Reviewstream banned me! I feel so depressed.

Hi mtrguanlao! I think individual experiences vary. Some people make lots of money, while others have trouble getting reviews accepted. It doesn't seem to be very consistent, so I'm not sure. I've mostly had positive experiences - I've been paid many times, had very few reviews rejected, and find the site quite easy to work with. You don't really lose anything by trying it out. One thing is that a lot of reviews only get accepted at bulk rate, which is 0.30. Thanks autumndreamer! I've noticed that I get a vote if I answer people's questions, but I don't always answer the questions because, well, sometimes it seems like people are asking things about the books that sound like school assignments - sort of like I should do their homework for them. So I stopped answering the questions. I guess I could go through and answer them to get the votes... Thanks for explaining. I wonder how many people have actually goteen enough votes to be paid?

Hi cutepenguin! I also didn't understand that voting system before! But I've learned that they pay $5 for every 50 votes. They say that they pay 10 cents for every vote, right? So that means you'll need 50 votes to reach $5 which is the minimum payout for the voting system. That's why I voted on my own 20 reviews. I planned to vote on my own reviews until they all reach 50 votes so that Ill get $100 for voting on my 20 reviews. But of course you're not allowed to vote on your own review and that's how they banned me because they caught me! Anyway, I hope the voting system is now clear to you. Have a nice day.

Hi! Would like to ask if this site is legit? Quite interested in joining,thanks!

Hi, they didn't buy your reviews when you submitted? I suggest you to edit your review and make it 300 words long and they'll buy it. They usually don't accept reviews with less than 200 or 300 words so I suggest you to write longer. After writing more reviews for them, you will get the hang of it.

Oh i see, ya i only wrote not more than 50 words i think.ok so i have to prastise more often.thanks and good luck to u !

Thanks! Good luck and have a nice day!

Yes. Thanks for your nice reply. I also think that other people who claim that Reviewstream is a scam were just bitter and hurt because they failed at Reviewstream. Anyway, I am still thankful for Reviewstream because even when they banned me, they still sent me my remaining earnings even though the amount hasn't reached the minimum payout. I thought they won't send me my last earnings but they did along with the note that says they're not interested in cooperating with me anymore. I was hurt! But I was still thankful for many months that I've worked with them.

Hi! Thanks for your reply! And thanks for your recommendation. It's actually a bit hard for me to adjust to new writing sites. I felt lost. Anyway, I've heard a lot about Squidoo before. I'll check it out. Thanks. Have a nice day!

No it's not a scam! I already reached their payout for many times. I got banned because I know I really cheated. I tried to manipulate their voting system that's why they banned me and if even if they banned me, they still sent my remaining earnings to me. They always send me my earnings at the right time. Maybe you're just saying that because you failed in Reviewstream.

Hi! Thanks for your quick reply! I really appreciate your concern! They pay through paypal. I just did that right now, I tried to use a different name and email address and also send them my first review, and it worked! I thought they'll also ban my IP adress. Though I think it will be a little bit harder since I have to use a new and different paypal account now, because I can't use my old paypal which I used in my old account which was now banned.

you can use IP hide (proxy) so that they will not recognize you... ^^

oh.. i want also to join the site. Do they have registration page? how much is their minimum payout? Thanks :D

Hi! Thanks for an inspirational reply. Today, I felt like I succeeded first and then I failed. Haha. I'm already earning a good amount of money from them and then suddenly I'm banned. But still thanks for cheering me up. I also felt that this is a new opportunity for me that will lead me to a better paying site.

Hi! thanks for your reply! I am actually hesitating about writing there again because I have to use a different Paypal account now. I didn't plagiarize! Haha! I just cheated on their voting system. They have a system that every vote pays, like if I got 50 votes for one of my reviews, I'll get $5. But I cheated on that, I voted on my own reviews! Haha. So that's how I got banned. I'll never plagiarize. LOL.

Hi! Thanks for a very quick reply! Yeah, I thought I wasn't going to get caught but then I did. They were very strict with their rules and I thought they'll give me second chances but they didn't. So yeah, I've learned now. But I still feel so sad.
