Actually, I do find it fair. The guidelines of this site specifically state that responses to discussions should be worthwhile, and not to post one liners or one word responses. You're to respond with quality posts, according to the rules you agreed to abide by when you joined this site.
So, if you're not prepared to follow the rules of the site, then it seems perfectly fair that you shouldn't benefit from it and receive deductions.

you must not have read my post. i didn't say i left a one liner or one word response. i left a one sentence response, as that was all i could contribute. i do know the rules, and did follow the rules. mylot also says to respond relivantly to the discussion. your response was not all that accurate.

When I came on a short while ago my earnings were $24.61. I was posting away as I normally do (responses tend to be 2 sentences or more). None of my posts were one-liners and then I noticed that my earnings had dropped 2 cents. I made another post and looked at my earnings again and noticed they were back to $24.61. I honestly think there's either upgrading going on that's causing this fluxuation or a bug in the system that causes the earnings to change sporadically and without cause.

Are you sure that writing a one responce cost you .03? I have never seen them penalize me for answering with just one line of text. I have read many discussions about earnings going up and down all day. I think they are going through some system changes and I don't believe you were penalized for wirting just one line of text.

I would not worry to much about it, Its proboly just a glitch in the system and the $ should reappear soon. If it doesn't come back soon send them a email and ask them about it. I have been here almost 3 month and have never had money taken from me, my points have gone down when post have been deleted but never $.

You should Post atleast 3 to 4 lines for every post. still you cannot post photos so, type as much as you can till you reach 500. after that you earn easily more by posting photos.
If you post oneline or oneword then those posts will be deleted. so, take care.

Do you know this for sure? Could it have been for something else? I wish I knew exactly what the formula was for earning on here. It would make things easier, that is for sure.

well, i guess i don't know for sure, but it sure was a coincidence. i hadn't responded to any lame discussion. i do know there really aren't that many of those anymore.
