OK: I'm back....my mind is still at the beach...so, I will post now before all the BS REALLY gets to me and this post gets more angry.
First off: while I was gone some A-hole got into my email & changed the password--so, until yahoo gets their head out of their ass...I have a new one: mrsvee3@yahoo.com
Please make a note of this so you don't send anything to mrsvee1.
Now my ATZ & ND are compromised.
Would be nice if Lance would realize the importance of this and get back to me before my ND account comes up missing as well.
Amazing how people come to me for help--but, when I need some: silence.
Why I even bother in this damn business, I dont know. I've had it....
Whoever wants into my accounts...and my email: whatever. You think you scare me? Hell no, you dont. I'm sick of the disrespect, disloyalty, lying, stealing.....its pathetic.
Hackers, thieves....what goes around, comes around. How do you sleep knowing your very existence is repugnant.
IF you have sent any emails to mrsvee1@yahoo.com : the a-hole is reading them. Hope you can answer those emails asswipe.
Now...on to other crappy news & my input. Ready?
Total Rune:
Yeah, I am somewhat shocked....I knew Paul had a big investment ready to mature in August...was hoping he'd hang on. I feel betrayed because when payout requests were to begin on July 1, Paul had to know about his "new site"....Thanks for letting me in on on your REAL plans, Paul...and letting me calm people down after talking to Anita weekly--only to look like an idiot now. Loyalty demands loyalty in return.
Do I think Paul's motives were to scam? No...I still don't. Do I think the attacks back in May took their toll? Yes. Do I have unanswered questions and irritations at the way this mess has been handled? You bet. BIGTIME!
I think Paul has enough money to cover refunds & then some. IF he does NOT do this...I will be the first to call him out on it. I will feel even more betrayed then IF he doesn't.
I am ticked all around...plain & simple. Ticked at people on forums who love thinking they caught me w/ my pants down. Well; get a life. If you can find someone in this damn industry who advises people & who has more pure motives than me & is better at being CORRECT 98% of the time: introduce them to me.
I'm sick of the blaming, lying...and all out shark attacks by people who have nothing better to do than to attack someone who they ENVY (yes ENVY)....as being someone who DOES know more than they do. Is that arrogant? maybe...but, it's true.
My loyalty to TR was way before I became an advisor and a "blogger"....so excuse me for having loyalty to the Paul I knew last November. If thats my worst mistake: I'll be happy & content.
Now...before I get TOO angry; I'll move on.
AlertpayPro:
The attempted sale to Harrold's Media has to be the biggest (almost) mistake made. Who cares that HMedia's address was similar to Compactsurfing. One has to know how to read data...not just look at. The similarity in addresses is a coincidence most likely. I havent looked close enough, because I just got home last night. When people buy domains...those addresses can be very similar--if not identical--because it's the domain name's addy represented--as is the server hosts addresses.
Now, do I think HM is a scam anyway? Yep. Why? Because they scammed before...funny they want to be the "Savior of the industry"--yet they couldnt make any work themselves. What a joke. Stay away from ANY progs related to HM--unless you want your money to disappear--like the various programs they had.
As far as Rob...all I knew was he had the money...tons of it. Now, of course...we all heard that from ASA. I will go into more detail about things w/ ASA below....BUT...ASA only knew what Rob told them. Right, wrong, or too trusting...?? I dont know--not my call. Not much different than me remembering Paul the way he was--and trusting that Anita was getting the good intel from Paul...who I really wanted to continue trusting.
NowDollar:
Everyone knows ND is #1 rated now...Lance is still sharp. I know he talked to Hmedia...and I'm very happy he didnt sell the rights to ND. The plan that Hmedia laid out actually didnt look too bad. Its the admin team at HM I have an issue with. It takes more than a good plan to run a surf in my opinion. It takes integrity...something this industry seems to lack more of every month. Lance HAS that integrity...so, I'm glad he will be keeping ND in the "family".
24DP:
Will he resume payouts? who knows...I'm not sticking around long enough to find out.
He can keep mine...I'm done with the frustration of being second fiddle to him chasing thieves. Yep--thats all important...but not MORE important than keeping members payouts to AT LEAST a 2 wk waiting period. Geez.
I will admit that all my PDS payouts were caught up...so, if they were out to run...I doubt those would have been paid. I'm done w/ PDS as well for now, though.
Ok...now on to the part I put off discussing before I left. The changes I will be making.
First off: my time on ASA will be decreased quite a bit. Why? Long story...
I still love Jake & Todd to death...I will always feel their motives are good. I just dont agree with the avenues taken all the time now; so, in order for me to stay less frustrated...I will spend less time there now.
As you all know, I DID approve 98% of the sites before they went into premium. Standards were set....(ie: closed, dedicated servers...then on to preferable anti-ddos)...
I'm a stickler for criteria...(and I recently allowed myself to lower my own standards & criteria--which was a mistake I will not make again)--I always had to have the data--the proof before I believed anything. I allowed myself--as did Jake--to believe certain things admins stated. When we develop relationships w/ admins and they prove themselves over time...it becomes difficult sometimes to separate the keen sense we have when things go wrong...from the desire to believe what admins, who become our "friends" at times, are telling us are reasons.
This will not happen again from me. I dont care who it is--if I see the red flag, I will call it out.
If I talk to an admin...and I feel the reason is justified beyond a preponderance of my "gut"--and what other data I have--I will report that.
My criteria just took a major jump up. I will be going back to how I used to look at everything. Data based ONLY. Yes, there is an evaluation that must coincide with this--but, it's easy to let that evaluation be sidestepped by "reasonable excuses".
Back to ASA: Most people know I approved most of those premium sites. When sites started showing up in premium that I knew were not good--or worthy of the premium listing--I became frustrated. Knowing that people might "assume" they were my picks--I felt anxious because I knew some of them would turn scam--and they did. All you have to do is read my posts in some of those threads with my infamous frowny face & you'll know.
The frowny faces just arent enough for me now...people would PM me & ask why I posted a frown..or any ambigious comment about not liking them...and I felt trapped. Trapped because the last thing I wanted was for anyone to wonder why a site was in premium if I didnt approve it. Then again, I felt obligation to honor my code to warn people when I knew a site revealed data that insinuated potential scam. So, in order to avoid my anxiousness...I will be on there much less.
The ASA site is still wonderful...and trust me: Todd & Jake are great guys...
Many people do not frequent that forum--yet they knew I DID pick those premium sites for the most part. So..when they'd see one of those sites go down in scam history...but not read the forum threads...they assumed I picked them. I just cant have that.
Jake still asks me my opinion...don't get me wrong...but, most new sites listed as premium now are ones I wasn't asked to check. I was on vacation...and I know Jake didnt want to bug me; but, to me...the premiums have to be treated seriously...they must meet the criteria immediately--not promise to do so. Now, I have not even looked at many of the new ones I saw today--so, they could be great. Trust me: I will be checking--and will post EXACTLY what I think from here on out. The people are my #1 priority...
Now, in fairness to ASA: they have a plan to catch scammers...and they have the right to do things the way they see fit; it's THEIR monitor--not mine. I will always respect ASA--and will post on there a lot still. If Jake needs my data...it's there for him anytime. I would prefer he did...that way the chances are lower it will be a "bad pick"...yep--sounds arrogant again--but, my record is still unbeatable.
The sites listed as premium back in May & June were among the best: matter of fact--they are STILL good sites...and the ones that I recommended to Jake way back when to AVOID--are all scams now. Imagine that?
Premium sites should be just that: premium. Members should be able to trust that THOSE have survived the test of fire...those sites should never be cut & run sites.
I've seen people posting there is no difference between a scam site...and one who closes down. I beg to differ. The result is often the same: loss of money.
This is where one has to look at motives & intent. Scam sites plan to scam...they set their plan in action to deceive...steal money.
Progs who try hard & are overcome by obstacles they cant overcome...and who shut down are not scammers...IF the story of shutting down can be verified.
Just because they cant seem to process refunds still doesnt mean they are scammers.
ONLY THEY know if they truly had the money to stay open, refund...whatever. So, we'll never really know for sure.
This is the business we've all chosen to participate in. So, don't whine when you don't get that big payout you gambled to gain. That's right: GAMBLED.
It's all a gamble...you just have to learn how to play the ones whose odds are better. THAT'S the key.
Ok...I'm done....got that all out.
I will be adding some caution sites later this week...and revamping ones I think are scams...cautions...etc. I used to do that on here...and will return to that.
This is MY blog...and I will do with IT what I think is right.
As always,
Happy Surfing!
