    Hiya all!
    I am a seasoned STP scout - but it has been months since I withrew anything so I can't remember how long it take to come through!
    Basically i'm going for a short break on the 18th of this month and I need the money in my back account by then - so when's the latest I can withdraw my money for this date?
    Thanks :)

    well as an example, if i request a withdrawal on saturday it's always been in my paypal account on monday. i withdraw it to my bank account, and with barclays, it will clear by the friday.

    i'm expecting today's withdrawal to be in my paypal account tomorrow afternoon some time (fingers crossed!!)

    I really need to get motivated and do more scouting, I am so sick of listening to rap artist going on about how they a N****s & the woman are H**s its so degrading, and we wonder why there is racism in the world...

    i think racism runs a lot deeper than people not liking hip hop.

    I just restart the page if a hip hop song comes on that I find offensive. Or anything else that's crap, for that matter. life's too short to listen to bad music.

    there's a whole side-issue about black people in the states "reclaiming" the N-Word, but i think for me, as someone who does like hip-hop, when I hear the usual cliched rubbish like that I write exactly that in the review - it's hip hop by numbers and shows zero creativity.

    Well done cooltrikerchick! I'm hoping to get my third today.

    jason, that's how I review the hip hop too. I do always start to listen to it, and I understand the reclaiming issue, but that's no excuse for lazy songwriting. I had a great one yesterday that was really political and reminded me of old public enemy style stuff. I gave it a high rating and said it was precisely because they had done something different and broken the mold.
