Posts about My Thought Counts/OTX Surveys Pls Read 1st Post!

The problem is that the same person has to take ALL otx surveys. That doesn't have to be the same person who takes your daily surveys and your SM surveys but it has to be the same person taking them all the time. If you have already taken OTX surveys since the change over and recieved credit for one then I wouldn't change up. Just to clarify there can be three different people taking the three types of surveys but those three people have to use different email addresses and demographics and they have to continue to be the only ones to take the surveys they agreed to take so no swapping up to get more survyes.

Oh Geez! I just read this post and am really worried/confused. :eek: I know the same person has to take the SM consistently and I know the same person has to take the Daily survey. I've been so careful since the "Banning" not to mix them up. During that time, I remember reading about the MyThoughtsCount/OTX and never saw anything about the same person having to take that survey all the time. So, sometimes I took it, sometimes DH took it and who knows just how many emails I used. I never, however, took the same survey twice.

Same here Jamie, I never remember hearing anything about OTX and even since the ban it goes between DH and I and I haven't had any problem. I just use my email addy and he uses his. But I also always put my email addy in from day 1 with OTX before they required it? I didn't think OTX followed the same rules as GF only that you can't (which OTX hasn't let me ) take the same survey more then once.

That's what we have done too. :eek:

Don't worry too much about the OTX ones. I am sure that Tricia will post a clarification for us about wether or not that one can be taken by more than one person or using more than one email. It was my understanding that the rules would apply for all of the surveys but I have been known to be wrong at times. :rotfl: It could happen, really! No, really why are you laughing????

So far, we haven't heard anything about the OTX Surveys. So my main advice would be just to use caution and not go crazy. If you trade with someone on your house every now and again or use 2-3 emails in a month, you should be okay. But if you start changing your demographics multiple times each day just to get a survey or using multiple email addresses to do the same survey more than once, they will catch on and we will all be in trouble.

For the last 3 months, DH and I have had our own separate addys and info for the OTX, and I guess I thot that since there never seemed to be an issue with this, that OTX didn't mind. I thot maybe their main thing was that only 1 survey per IP address be taken, perhaps. It does help that if I can get none with my info that it works with DH info. -- Seems that OTX has made some changes recently tho, like making the email addys mandatory. I hope that they will continue to allow 2 addys.

Thanks for the clarification, Tricia. I do the GF surveys and DH does the OTX. Once in a great while, if he is having terrible luck, I will do an OTX. We each only use our own separate e-mail addys. I use the same addy for GF and whenever I do an occasional OTX survey. With this system, it doesn't seem to let either of us repeat a survey, so I don't feel like I'm cheating the system. We do get dry spells where we can't get one for a couple days (usually on weekends), but then they load new ones and we get lucky again. No matter what, each of us always uses the same demographics.

Thanks for the clarification. If I would have to pick, DH will do the OTX... he seems to get more than I do on there.

Same in our house.

I think we'll just stick with him doing them. I'd hate to be the cause of any issues.

Thanks for the clarification.
