    Default Major Changes at Netwinner!

    By now most of you have noticed the changes in the GCs that are available. The only GC that is left is the reloadable Mastercard. Netwinner has also added some raffles to its "Prizes" section.
    Some major changes in the games happened today. Players are now limited to 100 spins on the Moneywheel across all sites and to 10 cards on Banko. For example, you can no longer play all the Banko cards on the SR site and then switch to another site and keep playing. The same thing pertains to Moneywheel. Once you use up your 100 spins you cannot switch to another site and keep playing. Members in the Netwinner forums are posting that they are seeing a major decrease in the amount of points being won.
    You can find more information on this topic in the Netwinner forums.

    I've noticed since doing the site last summer that earning is alot slower (I started when it was unlimted spinning on just the main site). Lucikly I have SR to be my main money earner and will just do this one for the kickback to tricia and the odd gc I can cash out for.

    I know though that it must be frustrating when you are use to a certain set up and system and then it gets changed on you.

    I thought it was just Canadians that had no choices. I find playing banko fun, if any money comes from it that is a bonus.

    One thing that everyone has to keep in mind is that they HAD to make these changes to stay in business. Do you know that there were people playing 110 games on FORTY different sites a day? Can you imagine how much they were making? Now add to that the fact that Netwinner gets paid less than a penny for every advertisement those people saw. And only when they saw them the first time. If Netwinner had even 30 different ads in a day, they probably were making about 3 cents off of that person. And if that person was cashing out for hundreds of dollars a month, Netwinner was losing so much money that they would go bankrupt.

    I knew when I added them to our site that people would only be able to play their 110 games on one site a day. But I compare it to our arcade games and our Sunshine Scratch Off. People love playing our arcade games and making NOTHING. And they play Sunshine Scratch Off every day and probably average about 60 cents a person a month. But they still love to play. I figured that winning anything on Netwinner would be more than winning nothing playing the free games that we currently have.

    I've been gaming and doing rewards sites online for over 10 years and I can't tell you how many sites like Netwinner I have seen go under because they were paying out too high on things compared to what they were taking in. I lost so much on reward sites, game sites, and paid surf sites that couldn't come through with their rewards. I have to respect that Netwinner is making the changes necessary to keep their heads above water.

    I agree. I have also been doing reward programs and paid to click and survey sites for a lot of years. It does suck when things change so drastically, but I understand why it happens. I hadnt played netwinner in months so it was no big deal to me, but now if its going to benefit SR I will keep playing daily.

    I can't imagine playing my 100 games of the money wheel and then going to another site to play 100 more. I will play banko everyday and money wheel when ever I have some extra time.

    Frankly, I'm at the computer long enough playing my 100 spins & 10 banko cards. I can't imagine going to other sites and playing even more. I don't do tons of reward sites, survey sites or game sites cause I just don't have time! nor do I want to spend all my free time at the computer. So Netwinner works just fine for me! And I hope SR "wins" by my participation.

    I think the only people that will be upset will be the professional sit at your computer all day making a penny here and there people who should really find a real job if thats all they do. SR, Netwinner and all the other places like them are just to earn a little extra something, not meant to be a main income. But first and foremost, I think they are meant to make friendships and have fun with.
    If you think you know all the answers, it just means you haven't been asked all the questions.
