I know like me, all of you have given honest, clear answers to the best of our ability. What would we gain to lie? And, if perhaps we did the same survey by mistake, so be it. Its not like we can remember what we had for dinner last night let alone a survey we took 3 months ago. And, if our DH or some other family member took the same survey, so what, they answered their way, so in essence, they got another good survey from it. I could go on and on, but for the sake of SR and you guys having to read this, I'll quit here. As usual, I think you all get my drift.

So unless they really don't have any, then I am probably on the naugty list too, which is fine, I'm done trying to feel like I need to explain my actions when I was giving them honest answers and doing what we thought we were allowed to do.

I totally agree. We all followed the rules that we thought were in place, and no one likes being accused of acting fraudulently. DH and I both took surveys using different emails so I guess that was enough to get me banned -fine. I don't have any love lost for Greenfield and their "technical problems".

Greenfield is just like another coffee company that I won't mention, they make the mistake b/c they do a bad job designing their website and then they want to blame it all on us!! :confused: :computer:

And after reading on the daily survey thread that the yogurt survey is still up and still burning people, I really don't feel too bad about being banned.

You know what I find funny. For some reason I care about a survey when really I took 11 last month and 0 the month before. I didn't care about surveys then so really it shouldn't bother me if I am banned. but it does. weird huh. :) I guess I like to know I can get that 80 cents if I want.

Amen, sister! (Even though you are preaching to the choir!:rotfl: )

Another naughty one here.

No go on any surveys. I did have DH and adult children do surveys with my gmail moving the dots around but always with appropriate demographics for them.

Anyway, can we move on. What about the scavenger hunt??????

:sunshine: :sunshine:

I guess I am on their list or should I say off their list as I cannot get a survey either. This happens alot to me. I thought it might have been my age thats why I started leting DH do surveys. Sorry if I helped mess this up.

I have just had it up to HERE with Greenfield and this whole situation. I'm not getting a survey today, so clearly I am also naughty. I have been guilty of using whatever e-mail address I felt like putting in, including g-mails with dots. I have also taken similar surveys, although, to me, they seemed different. Some people mentioned the car ones and I agree. The financial ones are another example. They all start out the same, but branch out into different banks/financial stuff/insurance companys. Some you have, some you don't.

Anyway, I don't think Greenfield got this new surveillance technology overnight. They have been fully aware of whats going on, but as long as they were making money off of us, they turned a blind eye. Now that they have gotten their hand slapped, suddenly it is an issue. I'm DONE with them!
I'll be happy to do the OTX surveys which I have very little problems with, the paid offers, and shopping (I love the shopping). But it will take a LOT of convincing to make me do another Greenfield survey.

I have a VERY stressful job, and I like to come to SR to relax and have fun. When it becomes stressful, then I might as well be at work. I just got off the phone with a patient who had a tumor excised yesterday at my surgical center and was scared out of his mind that it would turn up malignant. Interacting with people like this is what I do, so when I come to SR, I want to relax and enjoy myself.

All right, I'm off my soap box. Thank you Cindy for your realistic view about Greenfield. I'm not going to miss doing their surveys, that's for sure!

Oh well. I guess i've been a bad girl too, which I find hillarious since I think the best month I had with surveys was 20:rotfl: GF has got to have something better to do than bad those of us who aren't doing these things on purpose. I mean, really.

In any case, I HAVE used my gmail, but never with the dots. Oh well. From here on out (if i decide that I'm ever going to look at GF again), I'll use my email that I signed up for SR with (which by the way is the one telling me there are no surveys for me to complete).

They have a lot of stinking nerve, I'll say that.

I think this is the bottom line here. A short while ago, they were congratulating Tricia because SR had the most surveys taken ever. Now all of a sudden SR members are committing fraud, lying and trying to beat the system??? Give me a break.

The advertisers came down on them and they are passing the buck.

Cindy......you put into words the frustration we all feel. Greenfield has questioned our integrity when we were following the rules that they set. I was upset before and felt guilty and now I am MAD!!! :mad:
How DARE they???

Wish there was someone in that company right here I could slap upside the head. :computer:
