which might actually be a drop for me these days.

Well, it depends. They are going to block spammers and obvious attempts at posting for money, I assume. - TFox Oct 23, 08:13 12
- it makes the original game pointless - decline Oct 23, 08:17 11
  - I make about $12 million a year from playing Cold Cash and the weekly survey -- nm - Roger More Oct 23, 08:22 3
    - i'm okay with those - the survey was market research (why they have the game) and the cold cash was advertising revenue. -- nm - Danger Girl Oct 23, 08:23 2
      - It is awesome that you've changed your nick - if I run into you at the subway I am totally calling out "Danger Girl!" -- nm - Roger More Oct 23, 08:25 1
        
        i like it, and it's fun, but it feels almost... fraudulent. -- nm - Danger Girl Oct 23, 08:32
  - 'cause $18 million really isn't all that much. I'm surprised they gave more ways to get free money when they were already complaining about there - mafic Oct 23, 08:20 3
    - It's more than I made in the first few years. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 23, 08:22 1
      - I think I was up to H$20 million by the end of my first summer, but those were the heady days of buying star wars at H$20. -- nm - mafic Oct 23, 08:24
    - I mean, that was my thought too, but if they tweaked the guts or decided they could handle it, that is their call. - TFox Oct 23, 08:21
  - Well, for 1, $18M is a good week in the summer once you get rolling. And, c'mon, are people really going to write 50 thoughtful posts a day every day? - TFox Oct 23, 08:19 2
    - so, what we posted before - just chatting.... it wasn't spamming, but it wasn't 'thoughtful posting' either. - Danger Girl Oct 23, 08:22 1
      - Well, for one, we don't know this is permanent. It could be like a Happy Hour special to get the forums rolling, and then taken away. - TFox Oct 23, 08:25
It's been suggested that you get the 50k on your first post only. -- nm - CovingtonCat Oct 23, 08:12
