I was wondering if these were just if we wanted to or if there is some rhyme and reason to them. :) Anyone know??

I'm guessing that SR is not allowed to give us anything, but perhaps they still get a little bit on they offer? So, if you are interested in any of them it would help the site out. I think I've already joined most of them a long time ago thru one site or another though. :(

This came out of a conversation that Cindy had with the supermembers about adding some things to the site that could not be incentivized but that people might still be interested in. I figured this was the time of year where people might most be looking for love. :heart: SR does make some money off of all them and while we can't give the money back to the members under the terms of our deals with the advertisers, it does not mean that we can't use the money to pay for things like scavenger hunt prizes or prizes for Crazy Credit days and forum games.

Thanks for the explanation Tricia. Off to see what I can do to help SR fund the games around here.

Thanks Tricia! :) I figured that I missed something along the way.

I was curious about those 0's too, but figured it out w/ the email about looking for love / Valentine's Day.

Just a word of caution, beware the pop ups & ads generated if you try Elite Mate :blush: :eek: :rotfl: Glad dd was at a friends!

REALLY? I clicked on it and SG clicked on it and we didn't have anything at all come up!

It was after I signed up and clicked back through on the confirmation email. When it opens EliteMate through that link (from my email) alot of the ad banners on the site and pop ups were frontal nudity, booty shots and um, "appliances" :rolleyes:

I have not gotten anything explicit in the way of emails though, just a bunch of random offers for other dating sites.

interesting. I signed up for elitemate eons ago with my personal email and have gotten quite a few porn emails. Wonder if its all innerrelated.

Oh, no!! I rank them through McAfee and they only thing that they reported were some "spammy emails", which is pretty typical for offers that make that much money. I'll try to run some kind of test and see if I find this. If it is interrelated, I will pull the offer.

Well like I said tricia I joined that site eons ago and probably not from SR rewards. Just thought it was odd that it was one of the few I used the personal email for and I have received porn emails since but it could also have been from sheer luck with those sites. I think they just drop in/make up emails and hope it hits people.

Wow, your making it really difficult for me NOT to sign up now. LOL

Actually, I encouraged Tricia to put up a bunch of non incentive offers because some of them are appealing to me. I think I'll start a thread on these offers and then as people do some of them, if anyone else is interested, they can sign up too. There are a lot of different ones that can't be incentivized and really are things a lot of us are looking for.
