    Isn't this the maddest thing ever?!
    How on earth can they confuse the life out of us all with the previous system of taking points away, adding points here and there and now promote folks or demote folks willy nilly?
    They want to encourage us to report buzz?? Really?
    Then then ain't going about in quite the right way are they?!

    i like this new system , they wont penalise you for joining a campaign , and you can improve your status by submitting reports and answering surveys, and you can earn golden key quicker , they have based all existing agents status on there entire history ,

    So seriously not impressed to go from being level 3 top 100 agent to being level 2, one step up from the bottom.

    Looks like they are taking every campaign you've ever done and as I was new, even though i did a lot of reports for the campaigns that I have been on it counts for nothing.

    As has been said, no real incentive to do more than 2 reports per campaign now!
    Im in exactly the same position as you,only ever had 3 campaigns but submitted loads of reports,done all the pre,mid and post campaign surveys,was in top 100 nearly level 4 now level 2,there is no incentive now to do more than 2 reports per campaign as you wont get anything for it,thats the bit I dont understand,dont they want to encourage us to spread buzz.One of the campaigns I had didnt have all the surveys it should either.

    I'm going to email them and ask what the incentive is to write more than 2 reports. Will also query the need to write detailed reports as it does not specify that they should be of a certain quality to earn the honeycomb for 2 reports submitted.
    Most recent wins: IPad, Jamie Magazine yearbook, Links of London friendship bracelet, Baumatic ice cream machine! :j

    Great minds think alike,i emailed as soon as I saw it last night,there are loads of us that have really put ourselves out and done loads of detailed reports for the few campaigns we had and now we have been penalised for it,its going to be easy now as you can just join get the products,submit 2 reports and thats it,the companies wont be having a lot of word of mouth spread about their products,think theyve shot themselves in the foot.:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
  • I have no complaints (moved up to level 4) but a quick survey of existing BzzAgents would have told them that the new system's drawbacks are:
    - no incentive to submit more than 2 reports;
    - no incentive to submit detailed reports (unless they plan to reject poor reports;
    - the majority of existing BzzAgents will be on a level that gets "early invites", so "early invites" are effectively meaningless.

    I get that they may have needed to do something to stop people signing up for campaigns and not submitting reports (taking places that active agents could be filling), but I think all they have done is replaced one problem with another (fewer reports from highly active BzzAgents).

    Just as I was getting used to writing good reports and gaining lots of points, its all changed!!

    Is it worth writing any more reports the iron campaign runs until 19th Dec?
