You'll find news stories all over, for example the problems with the recent MERS system.<br /><br />Unfortunately I wouldn't know where to start. There's a bunch of websites, but afaik they could all be scams or misinformed. Personally I'm a fan of Marc Stevens and he might be able to help or know someone who does.<br /><br />On the other hand, I understand if you're tired of this, and by all means let it go because it might not be worth the trouble. I don't know anything about your situation and I don't know if you're being treated fairly or not.<br /><br />Either way, it's a great thing you've got out of the fire. Take care and best of luck to you!Arashmickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15620610407982298416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1207964360248033505.post-273536180914022782011-11-24T09:11:14.270-08:002011-11-24T09:11:14.270-08:00Everything will work out in the end Astragali.

It's true, you get very little money in the beginning. But the more people you get to click your link in a short amount of time, the amount of money you get goes up - exponentially.<br /><br />Plus, what's wrong with giving people the impression that they are helping his cause?? If someone has no money to donate, not even a dollar, but they can click a link and make him just a small amount of money, what's the problem with that? It even says " I know some of you have been to Minecon, and are strapped. I know that it's the holiday season and you have to do things for your family. I know the economy is bad." in the post. So what's wrong with giving people who can't donate a way to help out?nightrder1195https://www.blogger.com/profile/04558264328971485029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1207964360248033505.post-10801347098880050052011-11-24T08:39:20.908-08:002011-11-24T08:39:20.908-08:00@nightrder1195 That might give people the false im...@nightrder1195 That might give people the false impression that they are helping his cause by more than they are and be less likely to actually donate, when in fact ad.fly pays out very little.
