    Instant 5SB about zero hour contracts



    I'm thinking 3-4 search wins in one day. I rarely get more than 1 myself though as I just do searches as normal as part of work.

    Did the 5sb quick survey load for you loranius

    err - yes I can - from your post:

    "This encourages people to post search wins up to 4 a day each person so the amount of search wins actually posted are very small, it is a great help to the newbies to see what sort of searches are earning sb's and lots of oldies are using the search terms, some work some do not. Mostly I have stopped doing searches since the change in the search engine provider so posting on here I just skim past and ignore them, it's not a problem.
    The original aim of this thread was to help all swagbuckers and by posting searches does this."


    1) "it is a great help to the newbies to see what sort of searches are earning sb's"

    No it isn't - for exactly the reasons I and several other people have posted previously. If anything its misleading and confusing to them.

    2) "The original aim of this thread was to help all swagbuckers and by posting searches does this."

    See my first answer.

    I don't want to get into a row as last time it got me nowhere, but I'm staggered you can't see the pointlessness of posting search wins with regard to anyone else using that information to GUARANTEE themselves some SB's.

    Even a broken clock is right twice a day... would you say that clock was useful because of 2 coincidences?



    I still can't see where I said , " the phrases that people post on here make a difference "?
    I was just pointing out what it says about searches in the first post, I can't see how you can interpret that to don't post search wins on this forum?
    Search wins may be pointless to you but others can post what they like in this thread as long as it's to do with Swagbucks and most people know nothing is guaranteed with Swagbucks.

    So I tried it, 7 individual searches starting from the first actual word in my collins dictionary in alpha order and I won on the seventh word. I'll try again later today taking the 8th word as my starting point - can anyone let me know what they would expect me to achieve for search wins in a day as I don't normally do them?

    I normally get one in the morning around 10am, one at 2pm and another around 6pm but this can vary.

    Note you can search the same word over and over until you win, only then change the word. Just refresh the path in the URL of your browser. So over the course of a day ( I work on a computer all day) I would say refresh, then if you don't win , refresh again, do this every half an hour to an hour, with the same search phrase. Once I win I change the phrase and don't expect to win again for another few hours - although some people say they have won several times in a row my experience always follows the rough pattern of 3 wins, spread several hours apart .

    I normally win 6-9SB each time but occasionally more.

    Once I had only one win in the day but it was for 42SB - but that is rare!

    try to reload the new quick survey a few times and it should load eventually. I had to try about 5 times and wait and then it worked.

    That's out of order.

    - You've posted ~5500 times in only two years.

    - You are also collecting a few pennies here and there on swagbucks and spending time posting on forums about it also.

    Just as a quick note- Asajj- I made 2 short comments stating my personal opinion about surveys because you asked and I wanted to make my opinion known. I have not been arguing it out like some time wasters on this thread and at the end of the day, I don't really care. Much as you and others have said, if this thread goes a way I don't like, I will just stop posting altogether. I do resent people apportioning blame to me just because I had a strong opinion, basically opposite to them. At the end of the day though- we are powerless to stop people using this thread exactly as they wish because none of us are mods. So why doesn't everybody just shut up and get on with Swagbucking which is what we are all here for. Frankly if you are annoyed by email alerts- just turn them off. And if you're that bothered about missing a 5SB instant survey, then you need to be seeking help for your addiction problem. End of.

    I'd say you sound like a bully now. Yes you can raise your opinion but no you can't raise it by telling me or others off.
    I think one of us indeed need help and it is definitely not me.

    For your unimportant attention, I don't subscribe to the thread. Therefore I don't care about your search wins or instant surveys. I'd suggest you to get over yourself though. This applies to everyone that finds your view supportable too.

    Cut it short that I'm too busy or I don't care rubbish too. I'm not the one coming over to rant about not winning at search or SB changes something randomly.

    As you say, End of.
