Yeah, it is definitely a bit de...@FishHawk Haha :)<br /><br />Yeah, it is definitely a bit deceptive on EC's part.<br /><br />Try sending them a support email. The mods generally check it out, but they might send a note to Graham anyway about your application.<br /><br />That is what happened for me anyway. It could have just been a coincidence, but finally after they got to my support mail they answered saying 'we can't do anything about that, there is an order, blah blah'. But then two days later I was approved.impNERDhttp://impnerd.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794620494458886025.post-44185909752933899532009-05-08T15:32:00.000-05:002009-05-08T15:32:00.000-05:00Thanks for all of great info, my dear impNERD. I ...Thanks for all of great info, my dear impNERD. I have been wondering if maybe it was because of having over 30,000 credits that it was taking so long for me to be approved for a cash-out, but with you having a lot more than me, it is obvious that this is not the reason.<br /><br />I find it curious that the new "Crazy Entrecard Promotion" includes 10,000 credits, which is a $56 value according to Entrecard. Now, if my figuring is right, that would be $5.60 per thousand, and I just don't think it's right that Entrecard's own credits are worth more than mine!

I ...I always figured it would be around $1 or less. I honestly thought that $15/1000 was laughable. But who knows, maybe it will happen?<br /><br />The $1/1000 or lower seemed about right, because a long while ago EC allowed credits to be sold through eBay (or really anything) and the last price ECs were going for was around $1/1000.<br /><br />The very first time I sold credits back I got $10/1000. Graham was selling them through his website for $15 (which I think is where he got that number from).<br /><br />The second time? $6/1000. But I advertised that money as going to charity, which it did (UNICEF). So I'm sure that helped quite a bit.<br /><br />Shortly after I sold those credits, the price dipped to $2. Then, around a month later it went to $1.<br /><br />Now, when EC first began it was a lot easier to do drops. Well, easier in the sense where you don't even have to read the title of the page. You could simply visit a blog and do a CTRL+F 'Drop' and then drop and leave. With Firefox, you could leave the find box open and just click the down arrow.<br /><br />Then there were tons of bots and websites popping up which claimed to offer faster than ever dropping. I remember one website which simply loaded members EC cards on a single page and you could just click click click and not even have to see another blog.<br /><br />Now, there is a lot more security against that type of thing. But, the difference is that now there are a lot more members. So now everyone is wanting to get to 300 so they can buy a new ad or sell them for money.<br /><br />Anyways, if (when) the price does increase I doubt it will go over $3/1000.<br /><br />I was (finally) accepted last week and got $30. I have quite a bit more credits but I am waiting for it to go up to $1.50 or $2 and I will completely sell out.<br /><br />FWIW, they only buy them back at 10,000 each. So it took a few days for the credits to be bought.impNERDhttp://impnerd.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794620494458886025.post-53699837058945930492009-05-08T00:10:00.000-05:002009-05-08T00:10:00.000-05:00That's certainly the best way to look at it, my de...That's certainly the best way to look at it, my dear Martin.

Quite often I will dwell if it interests me and comment if I feel I want to, hang on, that's what I'm doing no! lol<br />Entrecard for me is used mainly as a traffic gernerating tools where I meet many people. The $ is incidental and as far as I'm concerned should be looked as a bonus.

Of course, my mother used to call me gullible a lot.<br /><br />Nonetheless, you have certainly helped to prove the Entrecard scoffers wrong, my dear Margret.

You have most definitely become a very valuable contributor to this site, and I hope your comments are as greatly appreciated by others as much as they are by me.<br /><br />As in regards to Entrecard, I signed on with them before they started accepting third-party ads, and it was mostly in the hope of gaining some more traffic that I did so. So, the cash-out was just some icing on an already incredibly delicious cake to me. For I was seeing a huge increase in traffic, and it keeps increasing.<br /><br />On the other hand, the way the powers that be at Entrecard has been generally handling things lately makes me sick. For I can relate to having an under-seige mentality, but treating people poorly in return just adds all the more fuel to the fire.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349087080262856079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794620494458886025.post-86813059268373775832009-05-07T13:36:00.000-05:002009-05-07T13:36:00.000-05:00EC will bring you a lot of traffic.

I for one have decided to start a little experiment. I know without keeping track I leave at least double the comments I get in return; and am willing to bet it's more than double. And I rarely leave one sentence...cool blog, as a response to someone's blog entry.<br /><br />I am sorry you had such high hopes and got them dashed regarding making $$. I'm not one who suppose anything about the paid ads/cash out. It's not what EC was designed for, and it's not what so many choice to sign up for. That only makes it a problem for me.<br /><br />I do very much dislike being kept in the dark, being locked out of the forums because as active as I am, I still can't buy my way into the inside group. All of this is suspect. If one has nothing to hide...why keep people out.<br /><br />Growing up, a child of the sixties I was taught and still believe it is not only our right to question; but is in fact our duty to question those in authority.<br /><br />I do like visiting and EC is good for that, seeing lots of different blogs. Jury's out and how this all is going to shake out.<br /><br />Sandy<br />As always, welcome mats out, hope you'll swing by for a visit...it won't cost you anything...lolSandyhttp://travelingsuitcase.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
