i have an idea, some of these sweeps need to be removed, today wow prizes ipod touch sweeps, had to answer many pages of questions, mostly yes or no, then they started repeating them. i don't mind answering a few but when they start repeating them. i finally gave up after 20 pages, some pages had 20 questions.
Can we get a way to have members flag these links to have a admin check them out and remove them. say if a link gets 20 flags the first day it gets checked out by someone who can remove it.
i get emails wanting me to join surveys and get paid for them, or use free products that i get to keep. don't need this in my favorite website.
Thanks, and sorry if i vented in the wrong spot.
 
This is strictly my opinion, I am not any part of SA/SP other than a member. Some will agree with me and some won't. If there is a sweeps listed that you don't like the way it is set up, or whatever the reason, don't enter it. If all the sweeps that 'someone' doesn't like are eliminated there will be no sweeps left. I agree that those with many pages of questions are a pain in the butt and are probably spam, so I just skip over them. I personally don't like the ones the robo form will not save properly but other people may not mind. If I don't like the way a sweeps is set up I make the decision if I want to enter it or not. There are some sweeps that have few SA winners, others seem to have no SA winners ... of those I choose if I want to spend my time trying for the prizes offered. It seems that over the last past few months there have been several cases of whine whine poof! Most of the sweeps that have poofed (been taken off) are ones I chose to enter. Some were taken off after someone couldn't figure out how to activate their popup blocker and it snowballed into something else. If SA/SP members are not winning some of the whined about sweeps maybe it is because the powers that be at the sweep sites read our comments and blackball us. I don't know, again, this is just my opinion and as they say opinions are like @$$holes, everyone has one!

give it a try, let me know how long it took you, and take a look at your spam folder afterward. spent 10 minutes and gave up due to the same questions being asked.
This is just a thought, did not mean to make any one mad but try to enter this one, i would like to hear what you think.
try this open a new emaIL account, then try to due this sweep, without doing any of these offers. then check your inbox the next day.
i tried to due this sweep and read their requirments. could not do it, last page like the 40th page, said i had to choose a offer. i can get this sweep in my spam folder, i delete them everyday. also noticed while doing this i was going to alot of different websites.
waiting to her from ya.
 
:wave: Personally, I feel like there are many other sweeps out there that are quick an easy to enter without going thru page after page of giving my opinion to alot of questions. I win plenty without doing those type of sweepstakes.
 
The wowprizes sweeps was one I chose not to enter. I could tell as soon as it opened it was one I would just pass on.

I know what you mean. I do the same, sometimes I don't even have to click on it to open it. I just know. That all comes with experience.
