    B*gger, 2DamFlashy, how come I missed out on that one?

    I was about to post on this thread about an hour and a half ago that the surveys seemed to have gone quiet for me over the last few days. However in the intervening period I've hit a 120, a 90 and a 180. Got 5 after three questions on another and one crashed after four questions and gave me nothing.

    It's all down to the profile - mine says I'm 53, living with my wife and two kids (boy 14, girl 16), am in full time employment (higher managerial position), on a reasonable wage and living in the UK. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Unless many more of these high payout women only ones come out, in which case I may consider a sex change.

    I would say your chances of hitting these surveys go down if you are any of the following:- Single, childless, retired, unemployed, work in journalism, advertising, the media etc (you know the question by now) or living outside the UK/USA. I have a hunch that many look for someone over thirty but I could be wrong on that.

    I don't claim this profile business as being my idea. Someone mentioned it during my first month on the forums and I've never looked back.

    One other thing for the Brits. A whole bunch always seem to come around late afternoon/early evening. No idea why, probably because they think you're getting home from work by that time, have given the wife a cursory kiss and will log straight on to WGT.

    Fekdrink.

    PS. Now in exchange for all that helpful information could someone please teach me how to putt?

    alosso:
    So I proved my statement, but I wouldn't expect an excuse from an impertinent insulter like you.

    What's your beef Alosso? I never insulted you or anyone. You're the only one being insulting with a statement like that.

    Where I come from, calling so. paranoid = mentally ill IS an insult.

    About the risks, see the link I posted. A year ago, a user who had saved 500 views for 750 credits would be faced with a 50% loss to 375. Thus, piling up views above the minimum was a risk, and it may be one now again.

    Mushy01:
    anyone who had been saving views to exchange , did indeed lose 25% (or 50%) of there value with no prior warning 

    I'm not disputing this fact.

    I am disputing the fact that no one lost their views, as in they disappeared. They simply stopped receiving one credit per view, and started receiving 75 credits for 100 views. The views still spent and the 25% loss could of been recouped by simply adding more views before cashing out.

    Its a matter of opinion. I'm saving my views and will cut my losses if LiveGamer reduces the credits for views rate again in the future. I'm not saying it won't happen, but it does seem unlikely LiveGamer will do it again.

    Its a perfectly legitimate term without being offensive.

    Look, if it happens, cut your losses and move on if LiveGamer does this again. I'd keep adding views to recoup the loss.

    Where's the risk that LiveGamer is going to do this again?

    ...in Favela lingo?

    Richard4168:

    That's coping with risks, as I said.

    Richard4168:

    They might cut it down 50% again, or close it overnight - boom, all your saved views gone. Search for Icon's description of last year.

    BTW, I'd like to know which kind of big buy you plan from 1000 views? There's hardly a driver and no top wedge available.
