Its giving me the whole "500 internal server error message" whatever the heck that is. It says code 404 not found error is also the problem. This was after I posted a bulletin saying I was going to strive for $1 a day on that site. Do you think it is a coincidence or are they shutting me down for saying that?
Why would they care as long as I'm not an autoposter? And I think my thoughtful replies to a lot of posts would indicate that I'm not one of those... so what is going on. Are you having problems with posting or even getting on the site?

hello I was also a member of this forum, I was referred to this site by my mylot referrals. the strange thing is he didn't have a problem with toolbars while I and some other people did. So those who didn't downlaod the toolbar couldn't post anything even if there is nothing wrong with our account. You can read my discussion link above about my experience there. Let me see if I can find the other person's discussion about it.

Ok I found it. The above discussion is also about paid forum. You can search other topics too to read what others experienced

LOL It says that if I don't download the toolbar I can't browse for free. I don't remember if it's browsing the site or browsing the internet in general. Then I hit cancel and for some reason the toolbar starts running whatever software and my old PC got booted hehehe weird!
I don't know what has others experienced with the toolbar but I surely cleaned my old comp then never go there again.
If you don't have this problem then maybe it's Ok for you to keep posting and earn anyway. Good luck

I have actually seen this conversation, but didn't know about the toolbar thing. I know the dang popup for it is driving me nuts, but I'm not installing anything like that on this computer. I don't fully trust the site. I don't care how much they pay! I won't even let a so called reputable company like Nielson Ratings put anything on my toolbar. Its why I hestiate about checking out slashmysearch.
Does it say somewhere in that site that you HAVE to have the toolbar to post? I never seen it, but then I never looked that hard at everything, cause some things I don't want to know about, you know?

I am a member of this forum and until now I could posts and haveno problem with it. Although they have stricker rules. You could not make 1$ on the site because you could only posts 20 reply/discussions on it. I think you should try to e mail admin about your problems. Or rather just joined in other forums. If you like I know some nice forums that you could join .

You have a reply/post quota? I didn't know that. It explains alot, but I wish someone there had told me that. I feel stupid for posting it now. lol.
I tried to mail admin and it came back to me mailerdaemon. Which tells me their link is not active. Which sucks because how can I get back in. I'm wondering if that site is legit now.
Kinda crappy if you ask me

That's not really true, every time I go on, I make more than $1.00 a day. The top poster who has over 1900 posts posts a lot more than 20 posts a day. His average is more than 30 posts a day.

The server is being worked on most likely. I have tried to log on a few times and it gives the error message which normally happens on ALL paid forums at some time during the month! Anyhow, about the 20 post thing that someone said, I haven't ever heard of that either and I started at the first of the month and I have already been paid AND, I already have over $120 in earnings for payout! PaidForum is a new site, give them a chance, after all they are paying...here's my proof at my website www.freewebs.com/money4thekids . It is PaidForum, aka Harro inc via paypal random payout for $19! check it out!

I dunno about that, because it seems to mainly be me. I go in there and some people have posted 30 posts and I can't even get 2 on there because of this message.
I'm not sure what is going on, but I'm not pleased about it. I can't even get on there to message them about it, and their email comes back as not availible. I just am getting frusterated about it

Thanks for letting me know that! I've been wondering if I did something or what. lol.. I seriously didn't know there was a post limit... although if that is so then how is that medicine woman (we all know the health problem lady) getting away with it? lol. I know they are trying to weed ones like her out, but still....
What is wrong with letting a person make a dollar a day. I have quality subjects and questions. I like responding to other people's posts.... I just don't get it. Why pay for something if you are going to limit it?

Hi, paidforum either went under, or they got hacked... I noticed that at first certain sections were trying to work then NOTHING. I hope they get it going again, I did enjoy it.

It could also be that they have a server overload and can't take all the traffic that they get.
