Today, when I log in to my e-mail as I used to do, I find an email from the new admin of goldposter:pixie, I quote its contents here:
Hello Dear Members of GoldPoster.net
After speaking with Olgi we have decided to close the Paid Posting offer as we have been seeing only spammers and duplicate thread!
I'm really sorry about this matter, we have been always honest and paid all of our fellow members and what did we get from you, nothin, just spam posts and other sensless information! GoldPoster was opened for the only reason to share opinions and experience so you could earn more but as we see everyone is interested only for money!
Requested payout untill now will get paid! Its so sad for us to close this offer but thats your fault( some specific members)
In order to see who really loved GoldPoster for what it was and not for the money, we are opening a new and great offer( better than the first one)
.........
Dots is the new offer: a posting contest, only pay for top 10 posters for from $2 to $150.
When I checked through it, I was out of anger then. I have paid great efforts to post and respond there and was very near to the minimum payment($9.15 in my account yesterday), but the admin zeroed my account. There must be so many members there like me, PAYING GREAT EFFORTS, BUT GAINING NOTHING!And if the admin changes his rules every now and then, no one would trust in it because no one could know what would happen in the future. So members there should boycott it and make its admin to be repentant of his wrong decision.What do you think about this? Sharing with me, thanks in advance.

Looks like all these things are happening again. This time it's with GOLDPOSTER, following the likes of payposter, and duno.
Uhh, guys, for all that i know, those sites just need traffics to build up their forums when they're starting. Now that they've had steady amount of traffic (and sure make a good money off it), they don't need you anymore. And this is what happened.

Not only you, I also really surprise with that new points system. I lost all of my $9! And I can't do anything. I never break the rules at goldposter, I always following the rules but now they reset my earning back to zero. I dont know what else I can say about it.

It's unfortunately to see you encounter the same thing with me. I think that the admin of GP can't afford our earnings there, so he closed the paying offer and set all our earnings to zero. We all should boycott it and never log on to it. Thanks for response.

really?well,i have to check my account there..actually i am a member here using other username but didn't much participate in there since they have so much strict rules which gave me insights that the site has no enough money to pay posters.

Sure enough! You can go there and check the "goldposter news& announcements" area. I think that the admin of GP do this is just because he can't afford his members, he provides another promising offer and then he would find another excuse to declare that the new offer is close for some reasons. So no one would get paid from now on, I think. Thanks for response.

Well I also was very close to a minimum payout, however I've stopped posting there for almost a week or so. The reason why is because I had a chat with a few of the top posting members, and they said they didn't even really get paid. I thought the whole site was a scam in the first place so they can keep that fake money or whatever of theirs. They are just a big fat lie!

I think that you are so right. All these people see sites like Mylot and a handful of others surviving on the web and they just decide to cut into their market because they think that it's a great way to make fast cash from the search engines. Some of these people start with the intention of scamming some or all of their members and then not paying them. Others start with such high hopes but through clumsy mismanagement they think that the only way that they will come out with a profit rather than a loss is to refuse to pay out any additional members. (You never know if they really ever paid anyone do you?), or if they just waited until they started getting payment requests from their most active members and they realized that it was time to take the money and run as the "jig is up" once you have tons of unsatisfied members who have not been paid.

I don't know these people, never heard of them. But, I doubt there is a new offer. He is placing way to much blame on "cheaters." His insistance of trying to reflect blame, means that he is the one at fault. Thus, he is a dishonest person with no business sense. They all claim "cheating members".
Now, he is offering a new offer and this is after so many people still have not been paid? Is he really expecting people to believe him after he pulled the rug from under them? People would be fools to go back to this site.
