LP1. Stop wasting your own $.
Do the SURVEYS, watch the VIDEOS for credits.
I have been here at WGT for almost 2years now.
NOT ONE SINGLE PENNY OF MY OWN MONEY HAS BEEN SPENT.
I have 2full sets of clubs. 2 putters and several sleeves of golf balls. all different brands.
I also have 13 avatars that i bought & paid for.ALL WITH FREE CREDITS
I think all kinds are needed to keep this site going, the ones who spend their time doing surveys, etc (brings in the advertisers money) and the ones who pay with real cash. The latter one is infact cheaper for all who are busy in their real lives, cause the payment for the work time is much better there (in full agreement with tbe). But for the ones, who are either unfortunate (out of work and not by choice). Nothing wrong with that.
But I take offense to the ones who have more than enough money IRL (and I want to make sure I'm not talking about the person I'm replying to, I have no idea what his situation is), but they choose not to put any of it in this game and instead basically steal available surveys from the ones, who would actually need them. It's like going out for a free all you can eat dinner, you have a great time, the service is good and you DON'T even leave a tip.
This is a great game and it takes money to keep it going. If you like it (and can afford it), show some appreciations, doesn't have to be much. There are other people here, besides the owners, whos paychecks depend on this game's financial health. I'm talking about employees like programmers and mods. People like Icon deserve their money twice over (IMHO).
And to the OP, the idea of getting some sort of deals or discounts for credit purchases (for instance, buy 5000, get 10 or 20% extra, etc) is a great one and has been around for a long time. Sadly, not much has happened in that direction.
