    i did not see bullying, nor did i bully. why has a 13 yr old got a sb acct? i thought it was 15 that you could have one? and why is nick not challenging all of the people who do more than one? it should not be up to paul to do nick's job. as for bullying, i find that ironic. this is a man who thinks it is ok to bombard users with pm's and make them feel utterly harrassed. and it is not just me that he has done that to. nick cannot answer any questions about swagbucks, he ignores the awkward ones and lets long term users do his job. he is sarcastic and rude on the page regularly. he harrasses users in pm. and he posts about bullying? :-o
    There WAS no bullying . There was a cheeky 13yr old CHILD boasting of doing three Daily Surveys and throwing the kind of tantrum that CHILDREN that age throw at being told they did wrong. The same CHILD metaphorically flounced to her room slamming the door and had the nerve to stick her tongue out as she went ! At silly o'clock in the freakin' morning ! It would suit Nick better to investigate why SWAGBUCKS are permitting a 13 yr old CHILD to use their site .

    The only bullying I see on there is directed at a handful of posters who dare speak out when they see injustice. I've seen the appallingly ill mannered abusive PMs a couple of those posters received from an alleged SB rep and I consider THOSE bullying and urged the people receiving them to post them openly. Sadly they wouldn't, because they have more ethics than the sender of the missives.
    So as regards accusations of bullying ..." Yo Kettle !....meet Pot".

    Or as the 13 yr old child at the root of this would(and did) say
    :p

    I've had to enter captcha's on search wins and sbtv for months and suddenly yesterday, it stopped and I don't need to any more. I suppose it is totally random but still weird having it for months.


    am currently entering captchas for everything on sb too,,.. annoying.

    yes why isn't nick doing his job and challenging those who openly take all of the surveys? why is he allowing a bloody gobby 13 yr old to have an acct and be rude and blatant? and why does he always come down on the MSE lot for doing his job?

    as for the pms... there are a few of us, and i have been very tempted to post the lot but decided that it would be petty. however the way he is acting is beyond unprofessional and the pm's have happened to a few people. i think we need to get together personally.

    Can't comment on whatever happened on FB as all the posts were gone this morning. However, I used to go on there quite regularly but don't bother any more as it just a waste of time now. I mean there are still great people on it but what's the point of using it, when instead you can just follow with this thread which is a lot more helpful and friendlier.

    Quite Cally. It is a ridiculous situation that a 13 yr old can rattle through 3 DS's in 40 mins (her exact words) while adults doing offers & spending time & effort get offered nothing and in fact get chastised for daring to try to enforce swagbucks stated rule (Nick's job).
    It would be more apt were he to investigate a child using their site at silly o'clock in the morning.

    I am within days of my one year anniversary on swagbucks and have had captchas since day one. For everything . Vids,searches,the whole shebang..........BUT ,I still keep getting told I'm flagged for irregular usage . Well HELLO !....if 13 yr olds weren't doing all the DS's and "smashing it in 40 mins" (her words again) then perhaps I might get a DS occasionally to avoid me NEEDING to watch tiresome boring endless rubbish videos.

    I'm a visitor from the facebook page and was there until after midnight last night, at no time did i see a post that could be construed as bullying.

    I also wondered how a child would qualify for 3 daily survey when it is hard enough to qualify for one even with good demographics, most ask if you are primary decision maker or shopper in the household, so some feat getting them as a kid.

    Also the rep consistently posts the wrong information on there, just a few days ago he said if anyone was to do another daily it would not credit, lol.

    Then he told some poor guy he has to watch every video right until the end, another big lol.

    In fact swagbucks is becoming one big joke at the moment, i bet that rep gets paid good money to sit on his asre giving out wrong info and being damn right rude into the bargain.

    Just my two cents! ;)

    I didn't see the posts, but I would be gobsmacked if it isn't the rep looking for an excuse he can use to ban those who call him and his company out on their mistakes and one he can use to claim the moral high ground if his head office looks at what's been going on this side of the Pond.
